She was told to read and cite the other work. I take that as meaning she hadn’t intended to use her previous work as a source, but they wanted her to

While the coastguard was clear that they didn’t mean the bananas
this does not include perishable goods like foodstuffs.
Either way though, everyone here IS following maritime salvage law.
The “long established” rule that is that the owner has all rights to the cargo and wreck, but must compensate those who assist in recovery if the owner agrees to assistance
The British maritime law that keeps getting referenced was put into place initially to ensure that people would be compensated completely when assisting. Previously, when it was a raw ‘handshake’ agreement, there would be negotiations before helping, or Party A would screw over Party B with a low-ball reward, or Party B would just nope out of the situation out of fear of not getting reimbursed.
The shipping company in this situation sent a list of missing stuff. If you find missing stuff, you report it, and they know how much you should be compensated and make sure you get it. In this case, they want their expensive refrigeration equipment.

I do know that while I was getting all the family Christmas shopping done with Black Friday I saw a few buy now pay later offers. Most prominent was Pay Pal. The offer was if you use their buy now pay later feature with zero interest, they give you 5% in PayPal cash (whatever that means). I saw it several times, so I figure people were jumping on that

Include Robert F-up Kennedy, too, since this is a CDC (children’s dental center)
- Comment on Pedo planet 2 weeks ago:
Any root related to sex or sexuality has been perverted in English, or at least American English.
Just saying Homo means homosexual, trans means transexual, bi means bisexual, poly means polyamorous, and to MAGA, the word pronoun is more triggering than a swastika.

No man that’s got the chicken in it.
Bonus points to anyone with stickers of Queen and or David Bowie on your cooker
- Comment on Tabletop convection oven 2 months ago:
It has been said about so many appliances and tools, and it’s hard to know what to believe some times, but air fryer is game changer!
Imagine your convection oven could heat up in two minutes or less. And no tray. No tray at all. Just toss it in then scoop it out. Game changer.
PS if you don’t own a rice cooker what the fuck are you doing

Thank you for contributing meaningfully to making this community awesome.

Yeah, but if the state is constantly working it's ass off to stop other states from getting that federal assistance, they should go fuck themselves.
I really want, at this point, blue states to unionize this stuff on their own and let those red states deal with their own shit like they keep demanding

There's an unexpected amount of philosophical rants and theory dropping throughout the book. Welcome, but unexpected for people who go in to read an action novel.

The question was can I pour oil down the drain. The "Rule of Thumb" (a general catch-all rule that plumbers use) is if it can't rinse away with water, don't pour it down the drain. I replied to whether you can pour olive oil down the drain. I don't know why you started talking about washing dishes.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 5 months ago:
Nothing oily that doesn't rinse away with water?
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 5 months ago:
Yet. It can take several years to build up
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 5 months ago:
Nope. Nothing oily that doesn't rinse away completely with water. Most people forget butter and peanut butter, too.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 5 months ago:
I can't tell if people here are pouring their grease down the drain.
The answer is don't. "It will be fine" for the person who told you that it will be fine, but it will absolutely fail for you. You know that by now. Also that guy is lying and already had to snake his drain but won't tell you that.

- Comment on My son got Nikes so he doesn't get teased. 5 months ago:
One of mine is in high school, and as much as I hate the confirming culture, especially because it's led by morons and marketing, I choose the same path. I allowed my (now high school kid) to participate in all the awful crap that I would never do myself when she felt middle school pressure. She was in the popular kids group.
The caveat has been it all comes with extreme education from my end. Not demeaning or condescending. I over-preach about marketing/ads/influencers and constantly question why people make the choices they do. I question everything though. "How do you know that?" often leads back to tick tock.
In my experience, the OTHER kids are now getting smarter as they age. Mine is now able to live her life how she wants and is still with that same group , and the kids (I shit you not) look to her for purchasing advice. The vanity kinda goes away as their brains leave that dumb social hierarchy age.
Note: My kids are/were decked out in Nike. We live by the world headquarters and a good chunk of the kids' parents work there. If that isn't peer pressure, I dunno what is!

They think they have freedom because they have guns and can blow up fireworks. Literally no other real freedoms, but it feels like freedom.
