My 'sheath' would appreciate that and so do I ..... unfortunately, she would also likely bludgeon me with a sword if she saw this conversation.
Sounds like your average president
This worries me ... but all the same, I wish you well and hope for the best for you. You are a great personality and a person who brings joy to others without asking anything in return. Please stay well and let us all know how you are doing when you return.
All my love to you and your family.

It’s a beautiful day to die today,
A beautiful day to die today.
Would you fight?
Could you fight?
It’s a warrior's day in this battle field,
A warrior's day for a battle,
Would you fight?
Could you fight?
I have always wanted to have a nemesis just like you,
I’ve always wanted to live in a never ending war with you.
So let’s make the most of this battle field,
Since we’re together we might as well say,
Would you fight?
Could you fight?
Won’t you be my nemesis?
Won’t you please,
Won’t you please?
Please won’t you be my nemesis?

only one life, no respawn and most players spawn ingame with no resources or bonuses or even in good environments that will allow them to become geologists

Everyone always fantasizes about dick size .... but what about vagina size ... is there an optimum or 'perfect' size for that?
I'm a guy btw and also ..... I can't believe I just asked that question :(
We want you to leave and stop using our country's services and supports .... but we want you to stay as slaves that we can abuse.
The kickback is also in saying that they donated the money to charity .... which was collected from other people
It's like I asked you to donate money to a charity and I said I had to be the one to collect it .... then I take your money and donate it in my name ... basically, I took your generosity and claimed it as my own.
In many cases company's also understand that they can't openly do this because it would be too obvious ... instead they just ride the generosity gravy train ... they encourage people to donate to charities through their store/company/business ... then the company may or may not give their own contributions but they get to attach their name to the donated amounts.
It's like a billionaire selling you a can a beans and then asking you to donate a penny to a charity .... I always say no because the idiot billionaire could spare 1% of their wealth and give millions of dollars to charities everywhere, why the hell are you asking me?
I never give to charities through a store/company or business ... I give directly to charities on my own.
wedges a chair onto the door knob
A bit concerning that it is propped up on a night table and sitting right next to a doorway. There's only two of us in the house but I would never place electronic equipment like that near a doorway where I myself could just knock it over (because I've done stuff like that in the past). Get it on the floor or on the opposite side of the room where no one including yourself can walk or move around near it.
Just a friendly reminder of the November 11 Remembrance Day ceremonies.
Here's a photo of James Doohan, 22nd Field Battery, 13th Field Regiment RCA of the Canadian 3rd Infantry Division. He was part of the famous D-Day landings of June 1944.

Don't know how you all feel about Gene Roddenberry who kick started the whole Trek franchise and everything that came after it.
He is definitely someone that has affected a lot of lives beyond the work that he did and the life that he led.
For all his shortcomings, he is someone I look up to that has made humanity look at itself in the mirror and seriously think about what we all see in each other through all the shows and characters that he helped to create.
... btw ... this post is another Trek thing where in chatting with all you led me down to a page that noted that today is the memorial of Roddenberry's passing in 1991.
I thought I should take the responsibility to post this and remind everyone about what today is.
National Day For Truth And Reconciliation
Both my parents are survivors of the residential school era and my family have had to live with this horror all our lives ... whether we knew it or not.
For me the day is not to shame anyone or lay blame on those around me.
But rather to let everyone know about this history and never allow anything like it to ever happen again.
In The Original Series in the 60s, people had no idea what the future would look like or what technology would look like. In one of the early episodes, they had a paper print out machine on the bridge that looked like a fax machine, which was considered futuristic in the 1960s.
Like the example of the Enterprise fax machine, what technology or system do you think are we displaying in the current Star Trek shows that will show how dated we will become in the future?
I didn't see it posted so I thought I should.
I'm Indigenous, full blooded Ojibway/Cree from northern Ontario. Both my parents survived the residential school system in the 50s and I attended the last vestiges of Christianized schooling when I was growing up. We saw a lot of discrimination against us in my family and we were always made to feel less than every other Canadian we ever knew.
Even with all that ..... my dad always enjoyed celebrating this holiday because he just thought it was fun and a good time to celebrate with family and friends. Maybe he just didn't know but whenever this time of year comes around, all I can think of is how much he enjoyed just having a bit of fun today in the middle of summer.
In my own experience, I've travelled the world to 34 countries so I got see and compare how our country compares to the rest of the world. With all its shortcomings and blemishes .... this is still a great country and a prime example of decent democracy. It isn't perfect and it is very problematic and unequal in many ways ... but its on the top of the pile of mostly or more democratic places on the planet. I may be wrong on that but that is just my opinion.
So with all that said .... to all my Native, non-Native, nation born, immigrant, brown, white, black, and every shade in between ....
Happy Canada Day to all of you.
They're just trolling at this point ..... lol .... this is what America wanted
Get ready for the ride.
