I’m just realizing Darryl and Meredith are missing. I feel both of them in a row would be a fun time. Darryl would probably enjoying egging Meredith on to drink shots or something.

I agree. With Dwight, Kelly, they probably wouldn’t.

My order descending in preference: 3. Creed is crazy and fun to listen to as well as Kevin. Just have to keep an eye on my wallet and hope Creed doesn’t smell too bad. The smell is the biggest risk I think. 9. Others hate Toby but he’s alright honestly, albeit awkward. Basically what many of my friends have been. Just have to work about him being too awkward which isn’t too bad. 5. Stanly is quiet while I usually am not. Only reason Stanley is below Toby is because Toby would be more open to talking. Regardless, minding my own business around stanly isn’t bad. 4. This is the start of potentially bad seats. Angela may be quiet because she don’t like Pam, or talk about God/cats to An annoying extent. Pam may try to talk or be quiet because she’s worried about Angela’s judginess. This may feel tense or even get arfumentative.

1. Jim and Dwight are funny to watch when you can remove yourself from the situation, not while sitting with them. If I’m lucky, they will leave each other alone. If I’m not, Jim will annoy Dwight, and/or Dwight will be annoying as well.
2. Andy and Gabe will be telling crazy stories, fighting with each other, and being dumb the whole home I bet. Very annoying.
3. Kelly will not shut up. It will be pretty annoying. Ryan would maybe talk to me about investing or be elitist about some tech stuff. From 4 to here, these are all groups of people I would be annoyed with and would prefer not to sit with. Next though are the groups that are way worse
4. Jan and Michael would be bickering and trying to bring Oscar and mimme into to join sides.maybe throwing stuff or intentional spilling of things . 6 Vance and Phylis seem like they would get way too touchy in a way that they don’t care who sees. I think it’s worse than dealing with Jan and Michael.

I can imagine Toby making awkward conversation. regardless, he’s definitely one of the more tame seating positions.

Wiki is already updated. Sucks this guy sucks. Mad props to the studio though, they terminated a working relationship with their more prominent supporter when they could have tried to ignore the allegations.

I’m not the most experienced with Ubuntu, but the way that comes to mind is setting up shortcuts manually to try to match MacOS. It would be a bit tedious honestly. I’m hoping somebody comes along and knows of a library that already does that.

I feel like no one is addressing the fact that this shouldn’t be happening very frequently as your making it sound. Either you’re drinking too much, to the point of being alcoholic. That or something is wrong with your body.

Definitely a double edged sword: if you play frequently enough, the game always feels incrementally better. If you don’t play frequently enough, you feel lost. Not great for riot to lose players for that reason

The Indicator by Planet Money from NPR: they talk about what they feel are important indicators for the current economy, and expand on various economic topics in ways that I think anybody can understand, and are rather short.

The 1A from NPR: they talk about various topics that are affecting the US. They like to get people to chime in with their views, and have some experts on the topics to discuss context and how certain groups are or aren’t pushing for changes. Its usually close to an hour long, and not all topics interest me, but they do talk about fake news, presidential elections, housing, mental health etc.

Planet Money from NPR: longer form discussions of economics, somewhat similar to the Indicator, but not as short form and they really expand on economic stories that I think are really interesting. Some topics include how, many, random people, can relatively accurately determine the weight of a cow (and how this defines the economy), the real estate trail that recently occurred and its background.

Oh how interesting. this may be the closest thing to what the ops is asking

So the people teaching the game with you should make sure everyone is aware of the game time and expectations, first of all. I love board games, but would be a bit irritated if someone expected me to play Terra Mystica at a moments notice. The only exception that comes to mind is if they’re cool with ending it early because I wouldn’t be able to play the whole time.

Since your friends don’t seem very responsible, you have to do more legwork. I would ask which game is being played, and what the expected game time is. In addition, let them know your time limitations and that you’ll have to leave by a specific time whether your finished or not. This may lead to less invitations (“lets start a game of Twilight Imperium 3 at 830 Pm on a Tuesday night! but lets not invite Meep_Launcher because he’ll leave the game early”) but at least everyone will be aware of the situation before hand.

Ideally, your friends will work around the person with the most restrictive schedule, “only 2 hours? lets play some love letter, DND Inn fighting game, and Port Royale”. If they really want to play Monopoly, you can suggest a better time when you would be interested in playing where you’d have sufficient time to finish the game.

Cargo bikes are interesting, but the cost and my current bike infrastructure makes them more of a luxury item compared to a regular bike. Hopefully in the future prices can come down and their value to me will increase.

Like them both. But theyre both flawed.

Piped doesn’t seems to always work for me. Tldr bot doesñsn’t always provide vital information

Supporting Israel is definitely Biden’s biggest and ongoing political mistake so far, but we have yet to see whether its actually a huge error. I’m hoping Biden turns around his decision sooner rather than later because too many people are suffering, and things will get worse in the US if Trump wins as I bet a huge reason may be because of Israel.

You’re completely missing the point of the OP. Reread his post and then reread yours to see how your’s is not helpful to his goals.

The OP is asking for inspiration related to a specific culture. Secluded boredom will not help you learn about things to write about a specific culture.

There are also a bunch that truly don’t see their lives changing much, regardless of who wins.

expanding on Noliij’s point, the changes that the president and their party pushes are usually impacts that are slow to roll out, which makes it hard to really note the difference in party and candidate. This applies more if you’re less politically informed, and is a boon for Republicans.

Michigan is bankrupt and needs RNC to support them. They’ve also experienced a lot of internal turmoil, which is a horrible combination. Considering the 2 percent margin that Biden won MI by, RNC needs to be completely on top of their game in MI to flip it. That or for Biden to make a huge error.

Me too, Biden has to fix shit in Israel real quick (doubt) or start actually telling Israel to fuck off to start reducing liberal dissidents.

I don’t really think Japan has a worse issue than basically most other European and american companies. I’d be surprised if Japan has a higher shoplifting rate than the countries in the Americas to where individualized plastic wrapping is actually a deterrent. Maybe security theater i guess.
