It's a fuck as in what the fuck is that, and it certainly isn't a dish to look at.

Well many of them do seem to be pretty upset at the US giving military aid to Israel.

That's exactly when people come to work together. The French Revolution happened because people were starving.

She was snarky well before that happened.

The point of banning private versions of essential services is to make it so wealthy people have to use the same public version as poor people.

If a private alternative exists that rich people can use instead, the people who have the most power in society, then they have little incentive to provide a good public version.

I saw it in Imax and had a great time. I know several people who also saw it and loved it.

I've had the same copy of excel since high school, and it's done a damn fine job processing experimental date through undergrad, my PhD, and 6 years as a working researcher.

It's also the software pretty much everyone has, so you can easily share data with collaborators and other researchers. And it has a ton of functionality so you can process and analyze data easily, and create the visuals for papers very easily.

No, we have a shortage because people are leaving nursing due to the high stress and low pay. I know multiple people who quit nursing, or moved somewhere with better pay, so the low pay is definitely causing the shortage.

Not our lives, just the lives of the wealthy class. Our lives would be easier if we would pay enough to train and retain our own nurses so there wasn't any shortage.

I say all this as someone who enjoys NMS, has about 80 hours in it, and there is absolutely fun stuff to do, and is definitely worth playing. Having said that, it is very shallow for the following reasons:

NMS has very little story. I've played through all the missions, and there is very little dialogue, very few characters, virtually no choices. So overall the story is very shallow, but it's fine.

The random NPCs say very little, and do almost nothing. So quite shallow.

The space stations have very little variety, and very little life to them. Same with settlements and trade centers on different planets.

The randomly generated structures take on maybe a dozen varieties, so they get extremely repetitive after the first few hours.

Combat is very limited and repetitive. There's only a few enemy types, and pretty limited weapon variety. Same with space combat, which pretty much always plays out the same due to limited weapon variety and limited ship controls.

But again, I like NMS, and do recommend it. It's just not a deep experience.

Aren't hipsters the ones who got obsessed with IPAs in the first place?

All the Ken's care about are Patriarchy, horses, and mini-fridges, because they were given no rights or ideas of their own before Ken went to the real world, and he was only there for a few hours.

It's not a critique of men in general.
