If the governor has done well by them, why get rid of them?

If the last for years were worse than the four years prior, why would you vote for the last four years again?

At best, we can expect nothing; so that we are always delighted with what comes forth.

If you set the bar low enough, a punch in the face can make your day.

The problem with patches is you don't satisfy the oral aspect of the habit so you may need to chew gum or sunflower seeds to replace the act of smoking.

Nicotine gum or pouches may seem like a simpler option, but you can up your dose frequency too much to be able to ween off effectively if you do not have the willpower to keep to a plan.

Gum and patch also means you can not use a patch after a while and mindfuck your reptile brain into thinking the gum is what it wanted and not the nicotine patch.

That seems counterproductive.

Guillotine demand goes up, guillotine production company stocks go up, guillotine production owners become rich, guillotine production millionaires felled by their own designs.

I am absolutely turgid with rage when someone calls me that.

Also a dick move.

Make life so expensive that having a kid is financially inviable and then carelessly release chemicals into the environment that causes low fertility or sterility.

If it was leftist tyranny, we would all get equal access to pet squirrels if we want them or not.

Fascism is denying squirrels to those who want them because the state has decided you can not have a squirrel.

In America it is illegal to keep a wild crow or raven as a pet as they do fall under the migratory bird act. You can get a permit to care for one that needs rehabilitation for 6 months, like injured or chicks, but that comes with it some requirements that you will not easily meet. To indefinitely own a crow or raven means a special permit that is also very hard to get.

You can legally own a non-native crow or raven, but they are loud and messy. Also they cost thousands of dollars to buy and need all the space you came give them. Their social needs are arguably more than a parrot, so you basically have to have someone home all the time. If you are thinking "I'll get two! Twice the crow friends!", not ideal because they will favor the other bird over you and there may be other issues caused by having multiple crows.

Heartbreaking, I know, I wish I could have a pet raven too. The reality is that, legality aside, it is best to make a wild crow/raven friend if you want to experience them up close. They are pets that demand a lot of you in multiple ways that you almost certainly can't provide. To love them means you want to provide them with the best life and that means letting them be wild and visit with you when they feel inclined.

Make a crow friend, don't buy a crow pet.

They took the idea from a British pioneer of the tactic.

Heinz Guderian, the big guy behind the Blitzkrieg in Germany, religiously studied the book that Percy Hobart conveyed his tank integrated warfare understanding in.

They did work off of Hobart's tactics, but the inspiration and core philosophy of tank integrated warfare was all Hobart.

The Fat Electrician has a great video talking about Hobart.

Not everybody's brain works like yours and some may find it helpful to be able to do reminders within lemmy.

Well after 10 years with the company, you can't afford healthcare, so you might as well blow up a scale model first.
