...hospitals sell your information, too.

I feel so sorry for those of you living in places with for-profit healthcare.

No port forwarding, though. Some old guides still list them as having that capability, so I try to mention it frequently.

I agreed with you up to the point where it appeared as if you felt that logophiles are miserable and spread misery. That being said, I appreciate your perspective and I'm sorry sharing what brings me joy has the opposite effect on you.

That's limerence.

A more stable relationship is when feelings crystalize, but until then, there's limerence. Two-way limerent relationships are as unstable as a bottle of undiluted nitroglycerin. In any case, limerent relationships are quite common, and are the stuff of music, art, and poetry.

If the water is cooled with a low-energy method like a Peltier cooler, the heat has to go somewhere.

Also. around the mediterrainian, fish is a food staple of the poor. The point is to eliminate excess.

I'd argue that an inlander ordering fish at a fancy restaurant on a Friday during Lent is not following the spirit of the law (which can be more of a discipline than a rule, depending on the local episcopal authority), especially if it's not a special occasion and the fish was caught hundreds of kilometers away.

Nah, he's had his reportable soundbite. He's quiet because he's just thinking of another way to catch the media's attention. His voter base gobbles this stuff up.

There's a reason why every encounter with an Angel starts with them saying "Do not be afraid."

Yeah, we need another circle here for people who are socially conservative. There are pro-life voters who wouldn't identify with any of these positions, leading me to label them anything but conservative.

It's almost as if people aren't as one-dimensional as some voting systems.

It's a project by an Australian team, so one would assume two things:

  1. It's in Australian Dollars.
  2. Australia has experienced severe hyperinflation overnight (or earlier today, for many of us reading this)

This was definitely an unnecessarily gendered post. My wife's secondary function is transforming food into heat energy.
