I do have this problem with the monitor I hook up to my laptop for gaming occasionally. It’s looser because it gets plugged and unplugged more commonly and can occasionally slip out of I move my laptop to my lap so I can lean back when my back starts to ache.

But this is not a common situation I think

Honestly, the only condescending one in this exchange was you.

Sincerely, a 3rd party observer

Define support.

They’re not devoid of allies beyond the US and in general have vocal support of most of the western world.

But only 13 countries recognize them as a country, but not even the US is on that list of 13. Interestingly however, the Vatican does recognize them.

Which is why, they’re remain a nice political chess price for China.

We can hope.

Just because you opted in, doesn’t make their statement untrue.

The simplicity of use in the walled garden, caters to people who aren’t techy. It’s a huge reason for their success.

But just like “nontechy” people like my husband can use an android, “techy” people can opt into a system that caters to the opposite.

Generally. Trump has an uncanny ability to secure bank loans though. And, if New York requires him to sell his properties in the fraud case it wouldn’t surprise me if he was able to leverage the impending sale to secure the bond and then pull, well, a trump.

Remember, the rules you and I play by are not in effect here.

A better solution might be to just state your preferred genitalia.

Sounds crass but a “strictly dickly” announces the preference without the inherent negative connotations of “no trans please”

Us, never. Just like with China you can’t win a land war over here, and a home attack has a greater risk of uniting is against a common enemy.

Taiwan possibly. Though I don’t think so. Taiwan is much more useful as a political chess piece that China can beat their chests about. They can invoke the island and be offended about support for it whenever they need leverage right now.

Not to mention it isn’t just the US alone that needs Taiwan and movement there risks a global response.

Depends.

He could get a bond to secure the appeal of he can find a bank who will lend to him. Which might be easier, with what looks like the impending sale of his New York properties

Oh someone mentioned it under Washington, but cash n carry is gold too. It’s a restaurant supply store and is better for bulk imo than Costco because it’s just food and kitchen supplies. Easier to walk in and buy what you need then leave than Costco.

Also, no membership needed

Also sorry if I seemed like a dick. The poppycock thing sounded funny in my head but on reread came across condescending.

Oh poppy cock. Oregon has some pretty diverse grocery options most of them cheaper than Kroger and Albertsons.

For example, corvallis, has a winco, Walmart market, grocery outlet, and traders Joe’s, all of which I can easily spend less at than Safeway or Fred Meyer, which is the big Kroger brand in Oregon.

Then there’s also, university market and natural grocers, 15 minutes down 22 there’s an iga, locally owned chains designed to be close to certain housing, smaller, a little more expensive.

Then there’s the Asian (like HK) and Indian (like Desi) markets. There used to be a Mexican grocery they’re but it shut down. I’m certain you’ll have one in Portland though. These places have amazing specialty ingredients as well as some great deals on standard stuff.

Finally there’s a market of choice which is traditionally expensive, but occasionally has some seriously good deals.

You understand that Italy has areas that are not as densely populated as the city center. In fact some places are down right rural. And the US has some very densely populated square milage.

This is such a wild, wild take on the US’s cat centric build.

That’s a choice you can make you do not speak for all

Gelatin isn’t a problem for a Vegetarian diet, it falls along the same lines as eggs, cheese and yogurt. Most Cristian consume animal byproducts and refrain from eating meat specifically, and then impose further based on their own values. Poptarts would in fact be okay in a vegetarian diet.

Itt people who don’t know the difference between vegetarian and vegan

My husband had a nasty cold and the self scan he was using we later found out should have had an out of order sign on it. After missing the fact that it wasn’t dinging for every item because he couldn’t hear well, they pulled him and had him arrested. His total was off by $100 and he should’ve realized it, admittedly, but he just wanted to get home. We were able to get them to drop the charges because the self check out was malfunctioning but he’s still banned from Walmart.

I completely agree that you need to communicate. But that is outside the issue posed by the previous poster who said that it’s too emotionally taxing to just listen when you want to problem solve. Their comment implies that the conversation has been had, they know their partner just needs to vent, but being the listener their partner needs will cause “compassion fatigue”

So I attempted to rephrase it so that the “rational problem solver” could satisfy their “need to problem solve in contradiction to what their partner needs” by presenting it in a way that listening, is in fact the solution, to the problem at hand.

The problem is 9 times out of 10, your problem solving won’t help because they’ve already thought of the fix or you don’t have enough of the nuance involved to offer a viable solution. So to insist on offering, means that your partner now has to balance your ego and how to tell you “yeah I know” or why your idea won’t work.

Top the rational thinker, the problem is “I need to vent my emotions in a healthy manner” and the rational solution is “listen” and if the problem transitions from “I need to vent” to “I need help” then you can work on a solution together.

I can say that all 4 of my dogs caught it.

They’re still alive, but my 13 year old has not and probably won’t return to full function. He’s got some pretty significant scarring on his lungs. We are in one of the affected states, and they caught it from the neighbors’ dogs who brought it home from the groomers.

It’s definitely in my area.

If you make a product and want to claim that it or its ingredients are organic, your final product probably needs to be certified.

That word probably exists in the same article you originally linked.

But many actually don’t do it which is why they don’t use the USDA certified
