The lack of pain-empathy in healthcare is mind-blowing. I'm a white man in an excellent position to be listened to, but when I had appendicitis last year getting people to understand that no, I am in crippling pain and I think it's urgent was far to much hassle for someone in crippling pain. I can't imagine what it's like for women.
I can understand folk getting jaded eventually but I often get the feeling that many people start out not caring.
'vampire smut' is almost, but not quite redundant.
You probably don't want to know the details of any science done before... What? the 90's?
Authority doesn't exist. He does likely have the power however.
I'd warn against opening the cells if you don't know how old it is. Modern ones are safe, older ones might contain heavy metals.

He's out doing what I am sure he thinks of as diplomatic meetings. The pope might be the leader of a criminal organisation, but he is generally thought of as a legitimate world leader. JD spoke with the Italian PM while he was there as well, and I think he has moved on to India now where he will meet with various politicians and attend cultural events.
VPs do this kind of thing all the time, it just seems weird because no one can take him seriously.
I recall being told something about two cows...
Are you referring to the song or Reagan?
Folk always seem to underestimate the effect of training and experience. In a match between two unpracticed players, sure, the more analytically inclined of the two will have an edge. This is true of any game with a strategic component. General intelligence helps but specialist knowledge is better.
I'd take his claim to have read it as seriously as anything else he says.
