Could be something like hand size as well, since it can be harder to grip large lids.

That phase makes sense if you are the one to originally say something, which is imagine long-living vampires would have to deal with more than usual. Still there are RL examples like that one person who got a rejection for their paper by reviewer two who said they needed to account for the work of [insert name of the researcher who submitted the paper].

Unofficial IT at my work and half the time people ask for help, it suddenly works with me there and not even touching it. Granted, most of the time that's just people having typos when typing username/passwords and managing to do it correctly the 4th attempt. And sometimes it's just the computer being unusually slow to connect to wifi right after booting up and its connected by the time I walk over to check on it.

Being an adult sounds like it sucks.

In the meantime, post a professional looking printed and laminated sign that says something like “MOSQUITO POND - Please protect the local mosquito population - Thanks, McSquitoes”

Isn't that the entirety of e-arth?

That's like claiming using the n-word to refer to someone of recent African decent isn't a slur because you are using the word "correctly" and that it would only be a slur if used for people who aren't black.

How can you watch your friends, family, and neighbours being executed in the streets only to buy a whistle and yell at them a bit. I get that you’re afraid; but at this point your desire to survive should overcome that fear… Yes, there’s the threat of Marshal law, but it’s being imposed on you whether they officially announce it or not. There are federal agents patrolling your streets arresting EVERYONE that’s not visibly white AND carrying papers, including 3yo children, and shipping them out of state faster than the courts can issue injunctions (even when moving as fast as possible with emergency hearings).

I've never seen a single ICE agent in my life (despite being in one of the top 3 states in terms of "undocumented" immigrants). So I'd imagine a lot of it is simply an "out-of-sight, out-of-mind" for a lot of people. It may be the case that Alex was the only person armed with a gun at that scene (other than ICE, if you consider those people).

You’re being kidnapped and summarily executed. This will not end until you fight it off.

Agreed. I know when things escalate, I'm certainly in the group who've they've been building lists for as someone they consider an undesirable. I consider trying to flee, but I think partly there's still a side of me that wants to believe it won't get to that point so I can just get through living day to day.

I use cli just for making virtual mics and audio sinks and for .jar, so things people who are afraid of cli probably wouldn't even consider doing. Currently using bazzite. The immutable nature make it annoying when you want to do some things via cli that don't work like they would in vanilla fedora, but that doesn't seem like it would be a problem for someone who doesn't want to use cli. Bazzite includes bazaar for accessing flatpaks and works fine usually.

^ this person second amendments!

  1. You can see them take his gun and ran away with it before any shots are fired. They waited until he was disarmed to murder.

Perhaps wants ineffective violence. He doesn't want violence at a scale that's a legitimate threat to him.

What is it then? 100k+ people should exist 24/7 around the entire nation on each block?
