I bet all of them make a loud wooshing noise as they head straight up from the moon to earth.

Too credible

I posted this comment on a similar topic a while ago, for context it was replying to someone who wanted to pick 2 LeGuin novels to read to essentially get a survey of her work. I’ve liked her standalone novels as well, but I see them get less discussion generally. I think her work that I see referenced most often is the short story The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.

LeGuin is one of my favorite authors. I’ve read a lot, but not all of LeGuin’s novels. She has 2 main multibook series that I’ve read, the Earthsea books and the Hainish cycle.

Earthsea is sort of YA fantasy, but grows up throughout the series. The first 3 are a self contained trilogy, and my favorite is Tombs of Atuan which is book 2, I think would be okay as a standalone title. My other favorite is Tales from Earthsea which is book 5, and is a collection of short stories set in the setting. You’d be missing a little context only reading Tales, but this could also be a standalone.

The Hainish cycle is scifi, and are only loosely connected by the setting and don’t have a too firmly established chronology, or any shared main characters. My favorite from the Hainish Cycle is The Left Hand of Darkness and my 2nd favorite is The Dispossessed.

They’re reusable though

Okay, but the volume depends on the batter, not the pan.

Lever action is not semi automatic though. Needs both characteristics.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Alliance_(book) Is the original expose about cia involvement with crack, and still I think a good starting place, even if it has some flaws. It was less about what crack would do to americans, (though they were completely apathetic towards the harm they were doing in the US) and more to do with what the cia wanted to do with off books funding that crack provided, secretly fund paramilitary deathsquads in Nicaragua.

I think if the CIA is still involved in US drug trafficking, and I wouldn’t be surprised, it is probably still for off books funding primarily.

I think this is it. It looks like those wheels are attached to split trails with spade ends, that are kind of draped onto the hood of the jeep.

Perception of the vietnam war protests at the time were also very split, and I would be very unsurprised to find that the people most against the student protests now are, or are the children of people who were very against the social movements of the 60s. The 60s were also an incredibly divided time in the US politically. Nixon won the whitehouse in 1968, and the civil rights movement had met extremely bitter opposition.

Damn Hawaii, you’ve been eating well

All means testing does, is split support for it.

It also makes it more expensive to implement, because there is bureaucratic labor involved in compliance.

Yeah, it somewhere in the edit it flipped, and I didn’t care to change it back

But dymaxion is my favorite

The Beatles are so ubiquitous and generally acclaimed though, you don’t really have to go out of your way to encounter their music or artifice of their cultural legacy. If people always want to argue with you about it, or are obstinate when you would like to listen to something else? Then I can see pretty easily how someone’s distaste for them could grow over time until they would describe it as hate.

Just put your silos in a river for free water cooling

I think Ken Buck, being a political insider, also probably knew that the media would run with that quote; and that the paranoia it would inspire would fuck with the republicans in the house who made him want to leave in the first place.

If the house republican leadership also starts exerting pressure to stay on those it perceives as weak links; it may drive some of them out, partially as a result of this statement.

Edit: spelling

It got a remaster?! I kinda thought dejobaan was defunct. I always liked (and sometimes loved) their weird indie game we had at home vibe.

Dirty girl is the brand, they are ankle gaiters that work with most trail running and low to mid height hiking boots. They do a pretty good job of keeping dust and rain out of your shoes from the top, and them only being ankle height means they are both lighter weight, and nicer when its hot out, but offer less protection if it is really cold and rainy.

They’re olive drab color, so fab to be drab is probably just some branding speak for that.
