I moved into a house with roommates who had chickens. It wasn’t great. The chickens were cool, but they attract vermin. We had a real rat issue for a while, and they wouldn’t believe me that the rats were going after the chicken feed/poop, as well as the warmth of the coop. Then, they got tired of tending to the birds and rehomed them. Sure enough, the rat problem vanished.

The only thing wrong with the video is that he got Dr. Dre’s name correct.

Yes, but where was that ship coming from?

Ok. This isn’t what the headline is making it out to be.

Ecuador won 9.5 billion already, but there have been findings that it didn’t win that money legally. From this article:

The 2018 ruling was based on evidence that the lawyers who had won the $9.5 billion judgment did so by forging an expert’s signature, blackmailing a judge, facilitating the ghostwriting of a key piece of evidence and bribing other Ecuadorian judges — acts the lawyers either denied or said weren’t illegal in Ecuador at the time.

This $220m is to cover the legal fees of the lawyers who fought in that case. Ecuador still got the $9.5b, though the may end up losing it due to the fraud they committed in winning. However, IANAL, and I definitely don’t understand multinational lawsuits, so, idk, do your own research.

Talk about putting all your eggs in one basket.

Yeah, just maybe aim for Navy Poof or Cask Strength. Try to get over 60%.

I’m not sure what this is trying to say… Yes, alcohol kills bacteria. This is known. If you got caught in a flash flood of it, like these bacteria are, you’d die, too. It kinda feels like it’s trying to tell you alcohol is bad, but it’s using disingenuous arguments.

You’re right. You probably aren’t old enough to vote.

You’ve built quite the defense system there. Whole lot of walls.

I bet you are the kind of person that wishes they didn’t vote in 2024, like a lot of embarrassed Trump voters.

You sound like a Libertarian.

I liked it the first two times. I don’t need a third.

They just dropped a very mediocre Metroid title, and Mario Kart was middling at best, so they are down two franchises this generation already. If they make another clone of BotW then they are gonna be down a third, and they’ll have to make it up with Mario, but Donkey Kong didn’t inspire hope on that front, so I’m not sure what I have to look forward to…

Oh. Pokemon… Well, I’m not holding out hope there either after Scarlet/Violet.

I thought Murphy was already on board. Either way, Years was amazing, and Garland is a great writer, so I’m here for it.

I mean, I kinda think Serif fonts are superior, so I’m on board, but I don’t like it.

Well, damn. I didn’t know that. Oh, bother.

Zelda and Mario are first party, so I get that, but Xenoblade kills me. I need a rerelease of Xenogears, Xenosaga, and Xenoblade on PC.

Wasn’t this already on the first Switch? How did you fuck this up? It was already done.

Honestly, I’m kinda over the Switch 2 at this point. All of the games that have come out for it look empty and soulless, and there hasn’t been anything to make me truly want to spend $500 on another piece of kit. They’ve had long enough to put out some quality, and the promise of “$80 for a game ensures we can continue to deliver quality” is just the corporate bullshit we all knew it was. This is the WiiU all over again.

He was about 20 years old at the time, a rock star signed to a label, and a hardcore drug addict. I’m not excusing the behavior, but I’m not sure what anyone was expecting. I think you’d be hard pressed to find someone in this time period in his situation that wasn’t a massive piece of shit.

Edit: Some real libertarians up in this thread…

I think it’s sado-socio-sexual. Just raw repression from an early age.
