For those who might assume the author os complaining about Timmy existing, it is about how the character of Timmy was used well in the context of the show but is used to belittle by people who don't understand the character.

Great read.

Yeah, people often forget how long people live after major events in history and are surprised the underlying issues haven't gone away. We still have people from the wrong side of the civil rights movement in leadership positions.

Per the link it isn't clear if she wanted to sue or if it was her caretaker and legal representation. I really hope it wasn't her idea.

It is kinda interesting how the actual drones used in warfare look like what a movie studio would make as a mock up for the stylish drone they would use in a movie. Bare bones structure to keep it light, no aerodynamics, just the necessary moving parts and tacked on parts they need to make it work.

Slava Ukraine!

I really enjoy green olives in a gin martini, especially the ones stuffed with blue cheese.

Can't stand green olives in any other format that I can think of.

Roasted sprouts are the best sprouts!

Sauerkraut was just too overwhelming as a kid, but I love it now. Some other foods were the same, but that is the one I remember.

I liked black olives as a kid, then hated them in my teen years through early 30s and find them tolerable now.

A lot of people hated vegetables as a kid if they were made bland by boiling, and like them a lot more when they have them roasted or just with some seasoning. I remember having bland steamed brussel sprouts at home which are just awful but one of my friends roasted them and they were awesome. My dad cooked up some awesome seasoned steaks and that friends parent bought the wrong cut and cooked it well done so it opened my eyes to how much of a difference preparation makes.

The jar is great all around., both for bugs and bots.

Plasma piatol hits hard, but so few shots and I tend to flinch a little on release frk charging up so I'm not a big fan.

I personally love the crossbow on nids because it has the explosion for midsized bugs and closes multiple holes quickly. Just have to adjust for the dropoff. If I take that I need one of the faster firing pistols with many shots for the small crowds.

Honestly I like to mix up gear on anything less than a 7 just for fun. Always good to see if things are as good or bad as I remember since there are so many to choose from and almost all of them are decent now.

I'm not saying apple will do anything about it, just that they will let the cops know what is causing the reboots if asked.

The police could just ask Apple, it isn't like they are going to have some secret reboot process that they would hide from the police.
