Not until he’s gotten through all of the peasants who live in the countryside.

I think I tasted a bit of bile in the back of my throat when I read your comment.

Well, it’s only a very, very recent problem in Japan. They had stagnation for decades. Little to no change in wages, little to no change in prices. In 2011, I was making something like 33,000 USD per year there and living very comfortably with ample savings and what the Japanese considered to be a large apartment. It’s a pretty affordable country, aside from travel. Or if you want to live in a fancy place in a desirable big city neighborhood.

(And yes, I have been to Japan since then and know that things have changed somewhat. It’s still cheap compared to the US. Food is so cheap, it’s amazing what you can get.)

I wonder if they even have what we think of as HR in Russia.

We shouldn’t have been hamstringing them from the beginning.

Good question, isn’t it.

She also has a prior conviction for intentionally spreading COVID.

They almost all stopped doing so some years back. As someone who used to want to be a copywriter, reading modern articles with all of their constant mistakes is very frustrating.

Third time’s a charm?

She also has a previous conviction for intentionally spreading the virus.

Harassment, intimidation, and false imprisonment are not free speech.

This was an act of terrorism clearly intended to terrorize those inside the bus.

New Jersey uses taxes and tolls.

If you do, you should take a leisurely kayak or canoe trip down one of the little rivers in the Pine Barrens. Very relaxing and somewhat unique in that the water has a red tint from the cedar trees (what we call “cedar water”).

Tuna with saltines or rice or in sandwiches is pretty affordable, too. That was my good go-to. Then of course there were things like toast with butter and garlic powder. Maruchan ramen, naturally (none of that Top Ramen nonsense). Oh, and french fries! A potato is cheap.

It’s kind of shocking how the rest of the world seems to be just going with the flow of the guy who very clearly stole the election and is now using authoritarian powers to suppress dissent.

Can’t we all at least not acknowledge Maduro as president? Have no diplomatic or economic ties with Venezuela until they respect the results of elections?

I wouldn’t say that. Sometimes a mild flavor is nice. And yellowtail is not special.

I’ve had it. I didn’t go out of my way for it–it was served to me as something special.

It doesn’t taste like much. It’s not bad by any means, but not very flavorful.

No, it shouldn’t be. It’s possible for more than one thing to matter at a time. You’re coming across as extremely juvenile in not being able to grasp that concept.
