That’s actually one of the first things they took from us. Auto strokers that sync to specific videos exist, and if you throw vr into the mix you basically end up like that guy Jordan peterson posted about.

So is the ice scoop for soup and the spade for dessert? Actually a tiny garden themed cake with a space spoon would be cute as fuck.

I mean, I’m morally consistent on this one in that I think everyone looks better smooth. Yall can be hairy if you want though.

Leaving it out and about so they can get used to it works wonders when it’s finally vet time. Only when they’re young though. Our old cats know what’s up.

Just remember it’s going to be hilarious for maybe 3 days then get old.
Now I’m not saying don’t buy it, but consider if it’s hilarious enough, and whether it’ll look nice as a conversation starter on the shelf.
Unless you have a bike you use regularly then maybe the math is in favor of the horn, because that can stay funny.

Fast and hot keeps them cwisp though, so if you don’t like em slimy that’s the play. I kept fucking up and making my diced peppers soggy until I learned that trick.

Or cooked for a short time on high heat so they’re cooked but still crisp. Took a while to learn that putting a lid on my veggies was soggifying them faster.

Which book?
I said numbers. The book of numbers.
[19] God is not a human being, that he should lie, or a mortal, that he should change his mind. Has he promised, and will he not do it? Has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?
And as you pointed out, God does not do everything he says, meaning he either changes his mind (which the inspired word of gawd says he does not) or he lies to people (which is evidently contrary to his nature). Go ahead and read the rest if you want, verse 16 makes it explicit that God actually spoke these words directly to balaam.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I mean if you want to agree God can change his mind that entails that he can’t possibly be all-knowing. Changing your mind generally requires new information that you didn’t know before. But that’s irrelevant because numbers 23:19 and 1 Samuel 15:29 both say God can’t change his mind.
In the context of a group of camel herders assigning human characteristics to a deity to make it more understandable, it lines up perfectly. In the context of an almighty God handing down his Word to humans, it’s contradictory.
On a less serious note, if we’re made in his image, does he have a dick n balls? If so, what for?

multiple branches of Christianity
That’s a good point. It’s weird that the divine word of God is so nebulous as to spawn 40,000 denominations that all think the others have it wrong.
assume the first was just filler
The Bible is really easy to interpret when you just ignore the stuff you don’t like. Like the original verse condoning rape. But even if we accept that the old law doesn’t apply anymore, it did at one point, meaning God (and therefore Jesus) condoned rape. If you believe God is unchanging, you have to believe he still thinks rape is permissible as long as you marry the victim.

You forgot the rest.
18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter,[a] not one stroke of a letter, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. 19 Therefore, whoever breaks[b] one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus is explicitly speaking on the law and prophets, meaning the Torah and Nevi’im, basically the entire old testament. He said not a single stroke of a letter will pass from the law until heaven and earth pass away, meaning FOREVER or until end times when a new heaven is created on earth, depending on your interpretation.
Seeing as earth is still here, all has not been accomplished.

I was going to say religion is still necessary to control some people because there are some straight up sociopaths that only behave because of the fear of hell, but the fact that they totally believe they’re one of Jesus’ special little buddies makes me think that makes the issue even worse.

What really drives it home for me is the nametags. They say “employee since (year)” and I’ve seen a ff of people who have been there for 15-20 years. Meanwhile, find me anyone who has worked at McDonald’s for more than one year and hasn’t given up on life.

I’ve long yearned to see dead malls turned into mixed zoning areas. Turn a section into cheap studio apartments, slap in a grocery store, basically make a micro-city. I’m at the point in my life where I need my own space, but when I was a young 20 something, not having to get in my car to go places would have been a fucking godsend.
Also because it is my mission to shill Kirkland whenever I can, their granola bars are insane value for price. 64 for like 9 bucks. 100 calories, low sugar, very damn tasty. The dishwasher pods suck ass though, don’t get those. Residue for days.

It’s not specifically for horses, it’s just commonly used enough that it’s easy to source horse formulations. When the nutjobs couldn’t get the regular stuff from doctors, they sometimes bought horse paste.
