My municipality charges a flat rate for sewer and use rate for water.

Steamed hams

I think it depends on the city. This particular instance was in a city-owned park, but it’s got water access and there’s a ton of luxury apartments around. I suspect one of the rich fucks called the cops on us because they do have a really nasty habit of thinking that public park should be their private playground. They tried to ban the playing of Pokemon Go just because it brought too many people to the park for water types, and it was making the richies feel “unsafe” with so many “potential criminals” running around.

Cops are often wrong about the law, and it probably didn’t actually require a reservation, but if they say need to move and you don’t, you can get arrested and hang out in jail for a while until the charges get dropped for being bogus.

I moved from Oklahoma to Washington, don’t let your dreams be dreams.

Nah, summer is super depressing. All I have the energy for is to lie under a fan and slowly melt into a puddle of listless, sweaty sadness and long for death. In the winter, I’ve actually got the energy to get up and get shit done, build a snowman, frolic. Less sun is less headache too, so bonus points for it being dark all the time.

Asexual is a spectrum. On one end, you’ve got the people that don’t want to cuddle or hold hands, and on the other end, you’ve got the people that will have sex, but find it about as exciting as brushing your teeth.

Not saying OP is or is not ace, but that the asexual community might have people who align with their sexual preferences.

Those are embers lol

Either fuck it, or fuck with it.

No spoilers, but you’re close!

That we know of

What if there was only one other person on the plane, and it was a screaming baby that kicked the seat while eating broccoli?

The little known nickname for the guy Darmok ran into at Tenagra

Yes, it’s not a high bar at all. It just requires slight divergence with reality. Some degree of unreality, if you will.

See, I hear ‘fantasy’ and think of orks and fairies and shit, but I can think of many non-fantasy movies that have incredibly unrealistic aspects.

Like, idk, James Bond’s gizmos are completely unrealistic and break the laws of physics, but it’s not fantasy to me.

Like I said in another comment

Yeah, I really think it’s a type of media illiteracy, and it’s much larger than just sexualization.

I envision ‘realistic’ as a spectrum. If it is 100% realistic, it’s a documentary, if it’s 100% unrealistic, it’s probably a fantasy movie or something, and most works of fiction fall somewhere between.

characters and everything that happens to them are the product of the writers and their research

Like, you understand this is my point, right? The plot is not real, and that’s what makes it fictional?

Fiction does not require unrealistic elements.

If it is entirely realistic it is no longer fiction. Ergo, fiction needs some degree of unreality. I don’t see how that’s controversial, haha.

What’s wrong with it?

Nah, fiction needs unrealistic elements. You can have realism in fiction, but fiction is defined by its deviance from fact. If a movie were completely realistic, itd be a documentary.

I hate how the fucking conservatives have turned it into a talking point. Soy makes me pee out my butt, but if I’m too loud about avoiding soy, people assume I’m scared of the phytoestrogens.
