You are being blackmailed. This is no different than having the boys show up at your front door demanding protection money. Pay us and nobody (read: us) will break your legs. Pay us and nobody will steal your data.

Ah yes, the Balatro calendar. I play a King of Diamonds, which triples the number of days in June and removes October.

Samsara speedrun any%

Yeah they won't speed up shit, that requires investment in infrastructure. They'll just slow down all existing lanes by 40%, blame it on something unrelated, and then charge you 2.5x as much as you used to pay to get your original speeds back.

I didn't even think of that as a possibility, but damn that seems more and more likely the more I think about it. The only way to prevent him from repeatedly shooting himself in the foot is to literally drug him into unconsciousness. I completely believe that, I've heard him talk before. Hot damn.

Love ya, Squid. I know we can always count on you to deliver the trombone when it's relevant. I love seeing that in here.

Proving, once again, that conservative PACS are actually incapable of making a good investment if their literal careers depended on it. And this is supposed to be the """financially responsible""" wing of US government.

This is a good answer. I think your local librarian would be thrilled that you're trying to do this and most of them would likely put forth a completely undue amount of effort to assist you with it.

Back in the bad old days, doctors and med students would outright go rob a grave in the dead of night to get materials. I think it's better for everyone this way that "corpse collector" is a paid profession.

Allegedly, making an active effort towards lucid dreaming increases the rate of incidence of sleep paralysis by some ridiculous amount. Which makes sense, because in lucid dreaming you're essentially trying to trick your brain into retaining conscious processing during a dream.

Never tried myself, but if you're not afraid of the paralysis demons, it's a win win. You either succeed and get to lucid dream on the regular which kicks ass, or you don't succeed and start having nightly visits from Slim Jimmy.
