I mean, true, but it really missed the point. It left out pretty much everything about Free Silver.

If she's pardoned, does that mean she can be required to testify because it's no longer possible for her to incriminate herself?

Today marks the UK release* of @tkingfisher.com's latest book Snake-Eater, which (depending on how you define it) is her 50th book of fiction! In honor of this milestone I wanted to do a little retrospective of her 50 books

Everything but 9. My family had a 1938 Encyclopedia Britannica that my dad picked up at the annual library sale. His theory was that nothing really important had happened since.

Both is the correct answer.

That said, the Sukkaris I've had have tended to be on the mealy side, so I'd go with Ajwa.

A reminder: if you see someone shoplifting food, water, baby formula, diapers, tampons, etc. etc.

NO YOU FUCKING DIDNโ€™T.

I checked out the link and it's legit. If you need help, this could be a good place to start.

I vaguely remember the bit but couldn't tell you which episodes it's in. It's been a long time since I watched the show.

Here's an idea: stop arguing over which SUSPIRIA is better and watch both. They're interesting films that handle the basic concept (which I won't reveal because fuck spoilers) in different ways. Plus, they both have good soundtracks. So unclench and sit down for a creepy Halloween evening.

I'm going to use the zombie analogy again:

If you want us to survive the apocalypse -

1) we can't let people in the safe house who WANT to open the door to the zombies

2) the person who arbitrarily says we need to give up some of us to save the others also can't stay in the safehouse.
