There's a bunch of comments that are 100% serious in suggesting this stuff :/

It was announced by an AD.

What's the actor going to check? How heavy it is? They don't have a clue.

If by "check" you mean somebody who is an expert or is informed by experts makes a judgement about the weapon and announces it, that happened.

Court submissions say assistant director David Halls did not know the gun contained live ammunition, and indicated it was unloaded by shouting "cold gun!"

The armourer who provided the weapon did receive a manslaughter conviction. It was their responsibility, and they either screwed up or let themselves get bullied into screwing up by the asshat AD.

It is revealed assistant director David Halls had been sacked from a previous production, war drama Freedom's Path, over gun safety violations in 2019.

He was sentenced already for negligence.

Well yeah, he did. The person is a credentialed expert, and he delegated all responsibilities to that person.

There are a few heirloom plants that bear fruit with more intense flavor than industrial crops, which is a pretty well known fact if you are into food as a business/ home cook/ attend farmers market etc

Like this is common knowledge, it's specifically selected for flavor and grown in different ways. Not sure why you think one plant is going to be the same as another variety of the plant.

The quality of any ingredients has a huge effect on the intensity of flavors. Check out the differences in free range/ field chicken eggs vs indoor/caged/ feed eggs

Fivers you cheapskate respect women more

No it's why they didn't want them to be citizens. Keep that option open in the future.

[–] bane_killgrind 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah you are definitely using emotionally charged language to talk about this.

You should ask yourself why decisions around money reflect on your self image, ie "conceit" "deserve".

[–] bane_killgrind 2 points 2 days ago

You are just guessing that giving away all your worldly possessions to charities will help people, and not just make some charity management obscenely wealthy.

The Devil's advocate position should be about things the person can directly witness or experience, like do they volunteer their time or have looked for a local place to contribute to etc

I make great money, around 90k, probably 95 next year. I put over 500$/month to my RRSP.

I wasted a ton of money on the way here. A utilitarian solution would have been, don't waste that money.

It's not about entitlement, it's about being smart. My kids, nieces and nephews will have savings from an early age and will not waste money paying interest if I play my cards right. I think it's my responsibility to make sure the resources we have are utilised in the best way, being I want all of us to be happy and successful.

Parents say they want their children to be successful, it's a clown choice to do nothing to support that when there's the option to do something.

 

I was scrolling through mangadex and I feel like we can get some mileage on this non-sequitor.

 
 

I spy with my little eye something something Pi.
