The answer as to why is in the abstract: dude was flying on coke.

Swords Comic too, I’m sure they could make one of these work.

Because Hitachi was embarrassed about their innocent personal massager being used for such unwholesome activities. Literal PR move.

Oh no, lots of companies rely on the ESTA as well. Good luck going to the US on business trips.

Nah, these guys were BUILT to survive cold weather. The bison there, depending on how old it is, is anywhere from the size of a motorcycle to the size of an SUV, with a large chunk of that being straight fat and thick fur. Probably not loving it, but they’ll be fine enough.

People are gored by bison at Yellowstone every year. When I visited a few years ago, the rangers were actively having to tell people to avoid an elk who, with his harem, had decided to hang out in Fort Yellowstone for a couple days. People are dumb, or don’t think “wow that’s a 600+ lb animal the size of a minivan”.

My brother actually gets this a lot from other fathers. They apparently can’t comprehend a world where a man with two daughters might actually give a shit about what their daughters like to do, and take an active interest in those things.

This is almost certainly part of the idea. “It’s too loud and noisy here, I’m doing president stuff from Mar A Lago now”, so now the USSS and everyone else has to ship out there and rent from HIS properties and his cabinet is either making daily flights there, moving there, or simply discontinuing daily briefings because there’s simply things you can’t say or talk about on a Teams call.

Oh no, didn’t you hear? We’re overhauling the refugee system so we can take in more white With Africans who may or may not have ties to the Klan and Neonazi groups.

I almost forgot about the storyline for FFX because I played so much blitzball.

From what we’ve seen of him playing Path of Exile, basically, yeah. As expected from most rich assholes, he wants the prestige of being good at a game, but wants to shortcut the whole part in between where you’re not good YET.

You know some corporate manager was patting themselves on the back for that.

In actuality, most corpos are run by people. Lofwyr, whose corporate umbrella includes 4758 companies, is an outlier and should not have been counted. /s

More specifically, the story has to MEAN nothing. It has to curve REALLY CLOSE to interesting ideas and statements only to swerve away just before they actually make you think about a thing.

And yet, a universal experience if you’ve spent any time near a card shop.

Just play City of Heroes. It’s still running in private servers, and Homecoming is even doing active development on new powers and questlines.

Massaging your stats to make them say what you want is basic statistics 101.

Also, more kids are just getting diagnosed. Back when I was in school in the 90s, I was very lucky to be in a rich school district that actually taught teachers how to spot signs so they could recommend a screening, which the district would foot the bill for because they had a psychologist on staff. Now, more and more districts have people like that, and more and more teachers are taught how to spot early signs of autism (and more parents are aware of it) that kids who previously might have just been “weird kids” are actually getting diagnosed with autism.

I won’t deny a potential environmental link, but if there is one, it’s likely more linked to fossil fuels than anything. BUT that’s hard to get traction against, and it doesn’t have a magic bullet that’ll immediately “solve” the issue.

I believe this is called “heresy” if evangelicals and NARs and the rest actually cared about that.
