You made points others didn’t, and your edit demonstrates another aspect of the alone/crowd response to a prompt.

Laughing with a “crowd” supports you until you realize you were alone all the time, whereas thinking you’re the only commenter frees you to share your insights, but finding you were part of a crowd made you embarrassed about it. Don’t be. We all know being first allows comments to get more points, but more slowly typed comments also add value to the conversation.

You can’t just post something like this without making sure they’re okay! Like either they’re being adopted or at least their mother is coming right back to take care of them, and is getting plenty to eat! And someone is going to see they all get spayed/neutered, including mom!

True, but also the consequences of living homeless in New England would force you to either come up with some kind of way to afford shelter or move south. Whereas more homeless people die on the streets in California than you might expect, but the perception is that you can live outdoors safely all year. So there’s less incentive to scrape together enough money for a home.

Add to that, very few people move to New England with a crazy idealistic view of their opportunities to make it big. If they move there at all, it’s because they have a job lined up. Dreamers crash and burn in California every day.

Or anthropomorphizing it, expressing sympathy for it, in a country with a lot of suicides and a love of robots.

The fact they’re not going to just replace it with another robot could argue for either case.

Did it, though? My 90 year old mother used it in the same way since her childhood. I think it’s always been sarcastic, probably from use by lowly soldiers. In the phrase, she pronounces and spells it as “gummint work” even though she would normally say “government.”

Well that’s gone to shit in the ensuing 10 years.

Okay, for those who only read the headline and not the article, the text is the Bhagavad Gita.

So, not poster-sized. More like adding a Bible to the library. I think you’re going to run into a tldr problem there. I don’t know the Gita, is there a shorter excerpt that could be on a poster?

It’s just the spiders under your skin.

But maybe it’s the nerves or capillaries that run through the layers of fat and skin, as walking shakes them up and gets the blood pulsing through. Even in fit people the skin shakes a little as it slides back and forth over the moving muscles. Once you get into a serious workout, there’s too much other sensation from the muscles and tendons, and the blood vessels are as busy and hopefully open as they’re going to get.

Bear in mind I have no actual idea, just speculating.

Train station cat has so many people to judge

It could only help.

Don’t you have voicemail-to-text so you can read them instead of listening? Might have another name, voicemail transcription or something.

All you got had to speak. You didn’t really want more, did you?

For most of these calls, letting them have their say is the goal for both of you.

On your side that might just be because it helps prevent another phone call later, but good enough.

On their side, they made the call, so they either enjoy calling or they got all prepared and need to get it out.

Any follow-up you have can be done the decent way, by typing.

Could we please get going with this technology?

I expect a lot were raised as such by their parents/community, which isolates them from society as a whole. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out once they get exposure to other mindsets. And gurls.

I don’t know enough to say this but I can ask it: If being ultra-orthodox exempts you from service, doesn’t that provide an incentive to become ultra-orthodox? So will this cause more people to fall out of ultraorthodoxy? Or is there no joining involved, just being born into it?

Ah, that is stupid.

God forbid those with fatal defects should die before they had enough nervous system to fully appreciate the pain of their death. Or rather, Texas forbade, in the name of God. Isn’t there a commandment about that?

The pointed gun and Rust is giving me Alec Baldwin vibes, especially in the context of Netflix. Then I realized what instance I had landed in from All.

I had something similar happen to me years ago in a Toyota minivan. The car stalled and died in traffic, some kind of electrical glitch. I got out to raise the hood. The door closed behind me and it came up with just enough battery to lock itself, with my keys in the ignition and my two babies and quadriplegic husband inside. It was 107° outside. And pre-cellphones. I bolted to the nearby gas station to call 911 and grab something to break a window. Meanwhile hubby tried to coach toddler how to wriggle out of car seat and open door, but straps were too snug. Firehouse was near, and the jammed traffic was all in one direction so they used the opposite side and didn’t take long, and they jimmied the door open quickly. But it was boiling in there. Sat the kids by the road to cool off with water and get checked by paramedics, gave water to husband in car with open doors, and waited for a tow to the gas station so I could lower the ramp and get my husband out. Meanwhile of course we made the traffic even worse, but people weren’t too mad when they saw our plight as they squeezed past.

I’m wondering, did some similar glitch happen here, or do Tesla doors lock every time they shut?
