I’m not sure how far back you have to go, but those are definitely pre 19th century

I just can’t trust innovations and discoveries coming from China, I’m excited, but I’ll hold my breath until it’s been replicated by a less untrustworthy source
Root beer, there are so many different flavors and variety. A lot of artisanal stuff out there as well!
Cream soda is the second choice
My old town had stop lights that were timed nearly perfectly if you went the speed limit. Only exception was when they were resetting from an emergency vehicle passing (or pedestrian).
I would wave my hand and mutter some Jedi stuff at it and it would change. People still gunned it from one light to get stopped at the next…
There was a really fun show I found… Let me get the name… “Joe and Katherine bargain holidays”, where they"vacation" on a “budget”, in the first (or second?) episode the go to an owl sanctuary, where they learn it’s 3$ (pounds) to hold an owl, Joe is flabbergasted by this and announces that he’s going to spend more money holding owls than on anything else in this episode, I think they started with 10 owls for 30 pounds, then asked to round it up to a dozen, then a bakers dozen. It actually looked like something I’d gladly spend money to do, and I would imagine it’s a pretty good cause.
The series is posted to YouTube, and if you haven’t seen “task master” I cannot recommend it highly enough. Joe and Katherine are on season 2. Save season 7 until you’ve seen enough of it to be comfortable with what’s going on, because it’s an amazing season (as they all are) but the cast is the least restrained in their antics.
I would hold 5 owls.
What about a steam deck?
The lab equipment in television “science labs”, no your fid detector didn’t get the mass spectrum of that “unknown sample”, past the question of how much information you’d hope to get from that test, why are you using a gc on organic samples? you want to be using an LC you maroon.
I can’t watch murder porn for many reasons, this is the least of them, but I like to poke holes in my in-laws immersion when they watch it and I’m around.
When the light changes from green to yellow most of my community somehow fail to notice the change in color or from what lights it’s being emitted, it’s baffling to me. If the intersection isn’t passable you don’t enter when the light is yellow, sorry to delay your trip 1 whole minute, but the gridlock you cause delays everyone’s trip, and causes more assholes like yourself to block the intersection at a yellow light, and cause more gridlock.
Not blocking intersections when at a stop on a street.
Whatever flash in the pan has “games” pissed off today.
They’re easily outraged by any perceived slight, easily demonized/lionized by the media, often incredibly misguided, entirely without consideration for the bigger picture, and usually have 0 long-term impact follow-through or apology when whatever they were upset about gets rectified.
We have single player at home already.
Thanks for the catch XD
One of the reasons billionaires can “clog up the system” is because Judges are actually really overworked.
In Trump’s Florida case there were only 5 judges who could potentially handle the case, 2 of them were retired and temporarily filing in to keep the system moving, and 3 of them were already booked out for the rest of the year, Eileen Cannon was a 50-50 draw for Trump in that district.
Many cases plea out because it would take so long to go through the system, that between the waiting for the start of the trial and not getting time served it’s less time to just take a plea.

Gotta be pink Floyd wish you were here…
But there are so many good ones.
I’m so damn happy to support the people trying to keep those explosives out of the ground, where they’d lay for dozens of years waiting to maim future generations.
I couldn’t think of a better use for them than to blow up the people bringing them in.
Fuck the front line of Russia and anyone who supports it.

Sounds like you have a bit of a hate boner.
Overwhelming the noise is another option, a white noise soundtrack might be a decent bet. Otherwise you’re going to want to go with ear plugs.
I rewatched the usual suspects for the upteenhundreth time, I think it lost a little bit of its magic. Michael Baldwins character is just a bit too camera hungry and angry for me, some of the scenes have just lost their luster. It’s still a 9/10, but after 20 years I think it’s no longer my 10/10 go to for a guaranteed love rewatch movie. It hurts. Have I become jaded?
