Aye, we know way too little about the effect of skin products on the microbiome of our skin. Some of what has been looked at has different conclusions. There is a 'community' out there somewhere that I used to keep tabs on that believe everyone can get to the point of 'mildly smelly' at worst. The idea is that you just have to find the right bacteria to populate your skin. They would scrape and swap. There were two camps of thought, separated by whether they believed washing with soap was appropriate once you had the right bacteria mix.
Because no judge in history has ever made a decision based on synonyms. I'm all too familiar with how specific wording is in when it's pertinent to the judge's decision, and 'judges are meant to interpret the meaning' when the specific wording would be against a judge's decision. This was stupidity writ in legalese.
The sad part is, some people have done that because in their area there was no legal medical assistance. I read an article a few years ago about a person who decided to go out that way. I can't imagine how horrible it must be to be clawed by hunger pains for days until death. I've experienced hunger for days while waiting on a paycheck, but until death? That's a whole new level of horror.
While I'm not saying it's a good idea to avoid fines, most cities aren't going to go more than 30 minutes or so to pick up a warrant for fines only. Heck, I've seen warrants that have a little addendum, "in-state pick-up only," when the crime was a highly charged felony.
Dang, I missed out. I applied for that job somewhere up in Maine, just to get away from hick-ville south USA. I think they thought I was crazy to want to drive that far.
Something the catholic church is against? Either they're secretly pretty good at being good role models for boys and getting them to open up after experiencing a genuinely warm mentoring relationship, which causes some catholic vices to be revealed and then prosecuted, or the catholic church doesn't want competition.
Interesting. Where I'm at any cop can hold you for a psych eval, but they have to have damning evidence that you will hurt yourself or others. I'm pretty sure no cop here, and by extension their department, or the doctor at the hospital, would be willing to risk a lawsuit because you refused to answer questions about a crime. The civil rights violation (because they're retaliating for you taking the 5th), would be a bonus on top of the unlawful detention.
Well, there's two reasons for that. First, the vast majority of people who own guns are, shockingly, relatively normal, peaceful, law-abiding, not-the-type-to-kill-without-being-in-fear-of-their-life citizens. Those kinds of people don't shoot at other people because of a messed up reason in their head. Second, the individuals who have shot up schools, concerts, congressman baseball fields, elementary schools, grocery stores, schools, big box stores, movie theaters, more schools, college campuses (shocking, that's a school as well), night clubs, high schools, and more schools... wow, that's a lot of schools... definitely don't have all of their marbles in their bag. Aside from that baseball field with the congressmen, it would take a fair amount of skillful preparation to be able to even attempt an attack on government big boys. That sort of ability resides with the first group, while the will to do so resides in the second.
He didn't want the folks who would pay him to suddenly believe they didn't have to pay, or be ticked off that they were having to pay (remember, rich folks can get snippy). I can't remember the number that was floated, but it wasn't cheap.
It's too common these days, and honestly, it's just an evolution of hyphenated names. Why even have the hyphen? Just smoosh 'em together and nobody will notice.
I think there are two types of people who describe dreams: 1) Those who are essentially saying, "Listen to this absurdity, isn't it hilarious/weird?" and 2) those who are trying to pick up insights and think their dreams mean something. It's the difference between reading a fantasy novel that is all about characters, world building, and a cool story, and a fantasy novel where the author is trying to make some point about the real world and how something should or should not be.
I definitely fall in line with OP's sentiments about that second category.
