If the solution presented at an Apple store is "buy new product" it's likely just fishing for a sale. Use a 3rd party and they'll do the work and not gaslight you.

Try not reframing someone else's argument to prop up a US-reliant narrative like the rest of the colonialists. The entire world full of humans relies on cooperation and trust between allies. I don't think "shouldn't have relied on us" is a good narrative, nor is your idea the US is somehow overspending its resources helping the world instead its own people, it most certainly isn't and never has, capitalists have fucked allies and countrymen alike for profit.

If a dear friend punches you in the face, don't ask why not punch back, think about healing and making sure it doesn't happen again.

A lot of people over there still voted for Trump, still want guns & oil, and used the midterms to try and undermine the democratic process. Every country has an irrational evil selfish group, but maybe yours did so much damage to the world it needs to be visibly contained and diminished for longer than 1 midterm for people to not be wary of Americans.

Same, it's always a last minute necessity never a choice. The clubcard extortion racket was the last straw for me.

Due to the mass of T Rex (4-6 tons) it would theoretically top out at 10-15mph, the same run speed of a trained marathon runner putting some effort in. An athlete could outrun a T Rex briefly, and the exertion would probably dissuade it from chasing for long.

T Rex predated upon slow, large herbivores. I think a hit & run tactic would eventually wear it down.

He doesn't kill Tom.

Ah, the skant... you were taken away far too soon.

Been on the no chewing journey, how are you with meal replacement shakes? The bulk powders come in lots of flavours and cand be very cheap per meal. It's usually got dietary fibre, vitamins, minerals, and will healthify you far faster.

For potatoes, you need the skin included to keep nutritional value, which can be hard with no chew but doable.

You're essentially thinking newborn diet, you need calorofic nutition that's easy to eat even when you don't want to.

You got this, it'll get easier.

I genuinely feel you could replace "motorcyclists" with "car enthusiast" and it'd be the same sentiment, which implies you dislike a mentality that you've conflated with a group or subject. Which happens, but means you're not seeing the forest for the trees.

Agreed, I don't want to be #notallbikers, but the reckless loud idiots on two wheels are why the statistical death toll is so high. People cite the high fatality and think Bikers are inherently damgerous, but most of us ride safe, connect with the community, and stay hydrated.

Without meaningful consequence, there is no way this evil will change. No morality, no compassion, we are held prisoner by psychopathic corporate interest and we need to address the problem.

It's wild to think that the frontrunner in miltech and modern tactics is going to be Ukraine in future wars. The big powers will be begging to collab on their huge practical knowledge.
