Look man, why don't we talk about spears across cultures?

It's a weapon of the people and FAR more useful.

Fellas, is it a crime to advocate for the assassination of the current vice president?

Because that could be another one of Donald's charges. Just saying.

You COULD invest in an enterprise grade shoe rack unit which can act as the centeralized hub. Essentially, all users would connect with the server each time they need a shoe. As you note, distributed shoe storage technology exists, but there are actually a few different implementation strategies.

One option is to retrofit an area in the personal closet for shoes. This has the advantage of keeping each user's shoes away and out of reach from threat actors who wish to gain access to the shoes. A disadvantage occurs when there are poor weather conditions. The strategy there is to leave the shoes outside to dry.

Another option is to implement the strategy you outlined and practice a door-first shoe storage policy. Slides near the doors, work boots at the back door, and nicer shoes at the front door. In cases where shoe resources are over assigned, you would construct a priority chart to ensure that the shoes (usually slides) are stored at the door where they are most needed.

Another popular option in my region is to forgo shoes outside if you're staying within the household property. Depending on a user's mass, testicular fortitude, and the surrounding terrain, it is actually quite possible to take the rubbish to a wheely bin while walking over perfectly smooth pavement. Just wipe your feet a bit when going inside.

There are also homebrew hybrid solutions which mix and match any of the above, but be warned that a novel approach might have limited community support.

Maybe my pig will shit out a gold nugget.

Store brand foods are good a lot of times. They used to be garbage, but nowadays they're pretty good.

Frozen veggies instead of fresh is usually okay if you're steaming or roasting.

Automotive parts off Amazon have worked alright; Rebuilt my suspension for, like, $120. That's tie rod, sway bar, shocks, and struts. No issues for the two years since that repair.

A ton of hobbies have perfectly respectable aliexpress alternatives. Keycaps, Fountain pens, 3d printer parts. They rob intellectual property, but I like linux ISOs, so I don't exactly have a history of respecting that type of property.

Software in general can be cheaped out on; I don't think I need to champion FOSS on here.

Refrigerators and washing machines can be cheaped out on, as long as you do a bit of research about their reliability.

Lots of stuff is easy to DIY if you have some work space. Furniture, fish tanks, thermonuclear warheads. Learning to sew is valuable, not because you should make your own clothes -fuck that- but because you can mend the stitching on your current clothes.

Services can usually be cheaped out on. Youtube videos and a can-do attitude can get you through manicures and toilet repairs. Court clerks will sometimes be willing to walk you through basic legal stuff like name changes. Things you should educate yourself about beyond a short youtube video: Electricity, flammability (from heat sources), and anything involving significant pressure (pistons, compressed air, and power washers, mostly.).Also be a little careful with chemical reactions: cement hardening, for example, will produce a bit of heat. Usually this isn't a big deal and you can ignore it, but there have been idiots.The world's information is at your disposal. Provided you've got some common sense, and you never fuck around with the capacitor in a microwave, you should be fine.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I swear, but I think Trump had a minor stroke. That's exactly what it sounds like.

We'll see in future appearances, I guess.

Cis women and trans women have been found to have comparable performance in sports. Generally, cis women have an advantage over trans women.

I'm sure that you'll be objective and apply the same reasoning against cis women now that you know they have a physical advantage over other women.

I'm not part of the drag scene, but my understanding is that drag is an exaggerated performance of gender.

The actual situation of the actor doesn't really factor into whether or not it's drag. It's also not exclusively an exaggerated performance of femininity.

Asshole.

Trucks are heavily advertised over cars because selling a truck produces more profit.

Over time, those advertisements convince Americans that they need a F-150 4x4 EXTREME DUTY ULTRA RUGGED truck.

What happens if you teach a transwoman to shitpost?

Now hear me out:

What if you jumped through a tall fire, naked, a few times? Nothing so fast as to actually burn you, but enough to make you hairless.

I'm fairly certain that would kill quite a bit of the microbiome.

I have never, ever, heard someone in real life bring up veganism unless it was specifically in the context of what they eat.

The problem is, it comes up. Food is a very foundational element of social life. Sharing a meal is important, providing a meal as a host is important, and supplying food at events is customary.

Rejecting the offer to put something in their body is misunderstood as an insult.

The kool-aid man is an invertebrate, dude.

I mean, why SHOULDN'T I be able to expose people and the environment to harmful conditions in order to maximize profit?

I'm allowed to do that in other countries, and I can also pay those slaves in beans so that I can make even more money.

3 referrals. 2 from psych, 1 from medical to confirm they have been receiving long-term hormone replacement therapy.

For a nose job. The thing that cis folks don't need ANY sign-off for.

Conservatives love the quote "the shrub of freedom needs to be watered with the blood of parrots from a time to another time", so they've got a healthy dosage of normalizing violence.

They also LARP about Rome, which had a long and storied tradition of assassination. Famously, citizens of the republic were encouraged to strangle anyone who tried to become King... right up until they didn't.

Anyway, the Romans weren't always monsters; they just usually were.

Ask any post menopausal woman. (estrogen pills)

Or teenage girl with acne. (anti androgen pills(sometimes))

Trans women take both.

Look man, I'm just saying that between the two common genital configurations, one of them is more prone to moisture than the other.

Skirts are dope.

Was this article written by Philomena Cunk?

What the hell are you on about?

You know what, go ahead and list these record settings. I want to see them.

Omit "school record" or any regional / divisional / age related records. Those get set and broke constantly. Show me ACTUAL records. World records. Professional league records.

At last last we found the architect of all of society's woes: Vivian Wilson.

It was the transes all along! (/s)

I got a lot more than just the one. I've got so many freckles I have to undress to see my OG skin tone.

For clarity: You're an asshole for being a nationalist.

Are we talking about Gaius Publius Gronkculus Parthicus Maximus the Younger?

Sorry about you not seeing the lightning bug.

Insects are dying out a bit.

You're an asshole for being a nationalist. The only "us" and "them" are the workers and the owners. Fuck your borders. "We" didn't ruin "our" country; They ruined the world.

Between your bullshit there is a grain of truth: Any worker who leverages disproportionate purchasing power in order to become an owner is an asshole.

A worker going to another country in order to build a life for themselves is not an asshole.

So fuck you.

real estate billionaires will have their office buildings devalued.

Do you have a source? I'm pretty sure June is in February.

There is also steel and gold foil. Neither is great for hats, but they're still options!

I'm not confident my tax documents aren't saved to my dektop.

I usually air gap onto an external disk, but I've been busy recently.

Thanks. It was a genuine question. I've never heard of a single trans person who has set such a record.

Every time I hear stuff on the news it's "Trans girl shatters high school record". Given that there are basically thousands of possible records per grade per school, I would absolutely expect a few records to be set by trans girls. The thousands of records set per year by cis girls goes unrecognized and unreported.

Whenever cis girls succeed, they're ignored. Whenever transgender people succeed, they're punished. Whenever they fail, they're still punished.

No.

Anyway, how do I report a comment?

I feel that "normalizing assault" might paint an inaccurate picture of what the article contains.

I, a trans woman living in the American South, am already living under the sword of damoclese when it comes to the threat of unprovoked physical assault. I personally prefer not to add onto this stress with misconceptions.

Honestly, I would love to be eaten after my organs were harvested.

Help people one last time, you know? It's also symbolic because part of me will live on through them.
