Very thoughtful and informed reply. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

These conservative warnings exist for a reason, though. That being hundreds of lives at stake. What I think would be more interesting is to hear how often these types of events occurred before and after the layoffs at the FAA

I think their suggestion was that your teenage experience is not indicative of the experiences you can have out in the wider world.

Dating as a teen is a serious social enigma. You are limited in who you can meet, and everyone knows everyone. That fundamentally changes everything about finding and retaining a partner.

You are still very young (in terms of "finding love"). I know it can feel like you're missing out, and of course we all crave companionship, but you should know that as your life goes on you have the opportunity to meet all sorts of interesting and kind people from all over the world and a variety of walks of life

If you put your focus on developing your hobbies, exploring the world and its varied experiences, and surrounding yourself with people and environments that are good for you, then you are likely to find more genuine, natural romantic connections just by forming non-romantic relationships along the way.

Since nobody else will provide the actual clarity

EscobarVape and Elfbar are created by two separate Chinese companies, Shenzhen Innokin Technology Co. Ltd and Shenzhen iMiracle Technology respectively. Mi-Bar is created by an American company but has partnered with Elfbar to distribute Elfbar products in the US

Really wish more people would just provide the facts that speak for themselves, rather than point fingers about who is and isn't doing their research

I'm 90% sure that it was originally in the form of "to go <there/place> and " and has just been shortened over time. A refined colloquialism, if you go for that sort of thing

Imagine a vampire getting frustrated with a realtor because this is the fourth time they've arrived at a house they're interested in to do a walkthrough but the owners aren't home and the realtor, as someone who doesn't have ties to the memories created in that home, can't invite him in.

This also has fascinating implications for house flippers. If you only live there while working on it, have you not amassed enough "home power" to keep vampires out? Does the power of your previous home follow you to a new address if it's mostly the same decor?

Someone make a "grand moth tarkin" meme for me, please. I'm too lazy.

Yes yes, Jesus was Jewish, no need to belabor the point

(It's okay, folks, I'm Jewish so this joke is certified kosher)

Ah yeah, didn't read that way haha. Thanks for clarifying 💙

That is for sure. There is no question that it is an asinine attempt by the GOP to weaponize the law, rather than a genuine attempt at protecting Jews in any way, shape or form

Not be contrarian, but this is a common misconception. Hate speech IS protected speech in the US, but it can be used to enhance the punishment of a related crime into a hate crime.

It can also, under specific circumstances, be considered "fighting words". But again, that depends on the specific context and is not broadly true.

This is one of my least favorite facts, but it is unfortunately true

And when you see someone conflating all Jews with the Israeli government, you are free, nay encouraged, to call that shit out.

But guess what's NOT happening in this thread? Or this entire comment section?

Israel is committing genocide.

Sincerely, your friendly neighborhood Jew
