The Gaming Den

It should be at least theoretically possible to cultivate a military that efficiently obeys battlefield orders, but does obey the order "cover up my sex crimes" and a command structure that actually punishes people for committing rapes and sexual assaults. My understanding is that coverup...

False. If you want to get really drunk while curling under blankets, a shot or so of 151 in heavily sugared mint tea is fucking amazing.

The fibula is kind of splinted by the tibia and usually doesn't need to be screwed together or held in traction unless one or both ends have been displaced. Still, you're probably looking at a month of suck. -Username17 Yeah. It's not that bad. I mean, I walked about a mile and a half on it before ...

So my toes are now bruised. They don't hurt or anything. Just discolored. Not unusual. When blood cells decompose they release a bunch of pigments. These pigments still move around in compartments. Toes are downstream, so if you had some blood get crushed, the pigments would flow down to the toes a...

So...I tripped and hurt my ankle. Is there anything other than trying to stay off it I should be doing? Currently, I've got my foot sitting in a bucket of cold water, and was wearing a bandage all night.

Huh. I've never seen that. acaí is usually advertised as an anti-oxidant in the US.

And how do you make " í " happen?

I wouldn't presume to know what the current pope believes. He's a Jesuit, they tend to be a lot better on science than most religious orders.

While true, that isn't a high bar to leap over.

Also, I have a sneaking suspicion that Blade is attempting to conflate cat-calling with flirting. Yeah, a distinction should be drawn between the two - cat-calling is just hurling abuse which happens to be sexual in nature, so the comparison is to shouting "FUCK OFF! FUCKING FUCK THE FUCK OFF ...

My central problem has to do with double-standards . And I'm sick and tired of people making up their own rules about what they want to cry about, and then constantly shoving it in my face . If women are upset that there isn't enough "woman-friendly media" out there, then the only solutio...
