She said she's received comments accusing her of not caring about “all kids.”
The all lives matter crowd strikes again. Imagine raising money for breast cancer research and having some dipshit yell at you for not caring about prostate cancer. People are cruel
Buy Xbox and then either subscribe to gamepass ultimate or buy the game and then subscribe to gamepass core (just renamed XBL gold) to play online. Its still dumb that you have to pay to play online but you still have the option to outright buy any MS published games.
It’s possible to have aspirations beyond what your current capabilities are. Look at Benito Mussolini’s entire military history. Russian state media regularly makes claims that they will reconquer the Baltics and Poland. They even said they would nuke the North Sea to destroy Britain with a tidal wave. Are we supposed to just ignore what they say?
I like to provide links that prove when people are spouting bullshit so anyone who is less informed that stumbles upon the argument can see how blatantly wrong they are. I notice this guy got awful quiet once I proved Russian state media says insane threatening shit on the regular.
The House Judiciary Committee voted to move forward with an effort to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress hours after the White House blocked access to an audio recording of President Joe Biden’s interview with the special counsel who oversaw an investigation into his handling of classified documents....
Republicans want the audio from Biden’s deposition regarding the classified documents investigation he underwent six months or so ago. They already have the full report from the special prosecutor that found there was no grounds for charges. The justice department blocked that request, invoking executive privilege.
I feel pretty strongly that they just want the audio to use in attack ads for the upcoming election.
I knew Thai cuisine was hot, I guess the phrasing was confusing to me. That shit does get hot, along with some Indian dishes. There’s a couple of biryani places that have had me sweating like Michael Jackson at at 10th birthday party

This is 10 years old so it’s tough to tell if this is still the case, but it looks like the average user score for games sits at around 66-68 from 2011-2014. I’d love to see an updated one of these graphs.
I was in a rush and I needed to pick up a quick snack that I could eat during class. I chose these Nature Valley bars which said they had ten bars inside. What I failed to notice is the tiny print at the bottom where it says 5 x 2, i.e., 5 packets with two bars....
Dorothy Jean Tillman II told "Good Morning America" that she was homeschooled in her early years before entering college at age 10.
In 2020, she said she earned a Master of Science degree, and then, one year later, at age 15, was accepted into the Doctorate of Behavioral Health Management program at Arizona State University.
In December 2023, at 17, Tillman successfully defended her dissertation to earn her doctoral degree in integrated behavioral health from ASU's College of Health Solutions

It’s not an “anymore” situation. Most people didn’t care enough to help European Jews in the lead up to and during the Holocaust. People by and large have always been about “but how does this effect me?” as far as I can tell.

On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.
You know what, I can’t rule that out. I had heard people saying the quality mode setting wouldn’t even toggle for them so when I was able to switch freely I just assumed I was good.
