I watched an executioner being interviewed after the firing squad he was on carried out the sentence. When asked by the reporter if he felt bad about shooting the guy, he replied, “No more’n I would if I shot a coyote.”

Sort of. They got rid of it in 2004 I think. The guy they executed in 2010 was convicted before 2004 and under the old law was given choice of lethal injection or firing squad. New law passed in last few years allows for firing squad if lethal injection drugs are unavailable (condemned is not given option).

Alas, firing squad is only available in Utah for three convicts covered under a grandfather clause.

Utah still has it (most recently used in 2010)

Choosing not to have a child is the most unselfish thing you could do. Don’t want one? Dont’ have one. I wanted one. ONE. I had ONE. And now I am done. How awesome is it that we can CHOOSE to have none, one, two, a litter (Duggars, not recommended).

It doesn’t make you selfish! It would be selfish to have them anyway just to meet somebody else’s expectations of you.

I am not a big fan of babies. They’re adorable, but need a LOT of care because they are so helpless. It’s not fair to be a bad mom for a child’s early years while she waits for the child to be more independent.

LMAO it looks grape flavored.

Same here on both counts.

took me an embarrassingly long time

What? You not a fan of the post-apocalyptic hobo look?

Well, luckily, no one can force RGB to resign. We just have to burn insence, say prayers, sacrifice chickens or whatever is necceseary to keep her healthy until tRump is out of there.

Afraid I can’t take credit, it’s a perfectly cromulent word.

I had that experience, too! In my case, I was purchasing (yes, a cassette, ‘cause I’m old af, too) New Order’s Substance. This just goes to show that questioning a (black) customer’s purchases is a long-standing tradition. smdh

I’m not really a fan of Yennefer, either in the novels, or in The Witcher 3.

Yes, yes, I know—she and Geralt have a “deep connection” (that’s actually a djinn-forged spell, but let’s not let that get in the way of saying they’re “destined” for one another)—but she’s manipulative, emotionally and psychologically…

I’m sure we have all, at least once, rushed into our homes, cheeks clenched, trying to prevent our Lobsterfest dinner from bursting out. When that happens, we all wish the toilet was just a bit closer to the front door. This apartment is perfect for those occasions.

This, all day long.

What if they just rename it “Royale with Cheese”?

how you gonna threaten me with a gift, don?

That movie universally, objectively, and unequivocally sucked ass. It was not “fine.” It was no “ok.” It was an “abomination.” So use that word in the future. Thanks.
