Libraries with access to the enormous amount of English language content are usually only found in English speaking countries, though.

Good luck finding more than a few books on niche topics in, say, Dutch (ask me how I know).

I deeply regret not hanging onto my US library card.

Can you access it from your browser? That's my plan if my bank doesn't work.

It doesn't matter how "well-behaved" protesters are. They will find a way to declare it an unlawful protest.

Would have? He did!

The problem is that he joined the especially notoriously infamously corrupt and evil side, dumbass.

Oh no, poor guy had literally no choice but to participate in a corrupt system by going into politics and becoming a mayor 😭

Get the fuck outta here.

Do you think that being in close proximity to a school shooting increases the risk of a school shooting?

Sounds pretty sweet to me.

"The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."

-Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

I mean I can't speak for anyone else, but I absolutely love a good infodump! Nothing gets me excited about a topic like listening to someone who is clearly so enthusiastic and passionate about it. It's one of the best parts of life. Thanks again and I hope you continue!

So true. Spend any amount of time with domesticated or wild animals, and you'll realize how they all have unique personalities, preferences, habits, sensitivities and quirks, just like people do. I fully believe they have feelings just like us, even if they probably can't think about them in the same way we do. I think we are much more alike than we are different.

I'm loving all the bonus facts, thanks so much!

Damn, if our tax dollars won't even get us unlimited re-animations I've lost all faith in the government.

She/he looks coy 🥲

How about the ones who were adopted?

Uptight, conformist, prudish, bougie, repressed, judgemental, closed-minded...

Interestingly, some of my Catholic family fit the bill.

Maybe great grandfather was from the lost city of Atlantis! It's worth checking out.

You absolutely should, it's a glorious bottomless rabbithole.

Yep, all the black ink on my nearly-complete traditional sleeve (so.... lots) had a spontaneous granulomatous reaction this year. They were all at least a few years old.

It's currently healing thanks to a topical steroid, but I have yet to see if it stays away for any significant length of time. I can't even have them removed (not that I want to), lest the ink enters my bloodstream and lodges in some gland somewhere. Black ink reactions are super rare; my derm had never seen one in person.

My artist even uses one of the few approved-in-the-EU inks, go figure.

Oh no, I always thought they washed up like seashells! Poor things.
