Know what else is like pinball?

Kidney stones. Definitely feels like you're getting your balls thrown into a lot of shit.

My work provided phone is, sadly, an iPhone.

But the case they provided for it (OtterBox) actually doesn't have the window.

Meanwhile, my personal phone, a Pixel, has a case is 100% clear.

I bought a white phone, so dammit I want to see the white phone! ๐Ÿ˜‚

What's crazy is you can build a kit plane for less than what this costs, and flying a kit plane does NOT need a pilot license in the US.

Materia Magica has had a playable race called dracon since the 1990s. Back then it was called Moongate Online.

It's a MUD. The precursor to the graphical MMORPG genre.

And yes, people still play MUDs online.

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

Racism is bigotry.

Tribalism is bigotry.

Antisemitism is bigotry.

Hating gays is bigotry.

It's all bigotry.

There's nothing special about any form of bigotry. It's all horrendous.

Saying that doesn't invalidate the horrendous nature of any form of bigotry.

We really aren't. The difference is, the most successful of us are. And those are the ones you typically seem to meet overseas. Because the less successful of us can't afford the trip.

Except you don't need to have bought one to be affected by it. Maybe your employer bought one, and infected a computer you use at work.

When the government is powerful enough to cause genocides, that's a problem. It's far easier to just not give your money to a business that engages in such practices.

Not giving money to your government, however, is considered tax evasion.
