Basically, yes.
In the books it was just that they would only answer to Isldur’s Heir. They also scared the Corsairs of Umbar away from their ships, but it was an army of Dunadain (along with a few elves, like Elrond’s sons) that actually ran them off permanently, so they could use the ships to bring some of the Gondorians in the south back north to join the main battle.
There was a book like that, but this illustration is from a calendar James Gurney did.
Wow. Even Trump thought they went too far. Damn.
And the CEO who brushed that assault off ‘suffered’ a ‘delayed promotion’. Poor thing. For saying that stuff about anyone, let alone a customer, he should have been fired, no golden parachute.
I think the doctor’s patients should have sued the airline too, since no doubt having their doctor pounded to a pulp caused them to miss their appointments.
And that is why I love having AAA.
Then you’d just have the police knocking whenever you used an aftermarket part. They’ll just force everyone to agree to them enforcing those contracts when they buy the product. After all, the EULA is given to everyone, has terrible shit in it, but people sign it anyways because if you don’t, you don’t get to use the product.
Source? From what I’ve heard, recent studies are showing the opposite.
It works for good congressmen. I know Oregon’s congressmen have cited those letters and calls as reasons for their actions on policies.
Dude, my niece would answer ‘no’ to any question asked of her, then follow up with ‘yes’ if she liked it/wanted to do it.
Learning a kid’s quirks is just part of parenting. What the heck are you on about?
Boy, I wish. Speaking as someone who knows these people, no. This is exactly what they want to do.
Remember the whole thing with GameStop? Wall Street knows, but they definitely don’t care, as long as they can make a fast buck and get out.
The camera is equipped with special filters and sensors that simulate the vision of various species of animals, including birds, insects and sea creatures.
It allows us to reproduce the unique features of animal vision, such as the ability to see ultraviolet or polarized light.
The article says it can do it with 92% accuracy, which seems pretty good TBH.
You’d be surprised. Also, often the company name very prominently displayed on the return address is anything but subtle.
Freefall is still going strong, 3 panels a week. Since like 1998 or something. Never loses the humor either, unlike some comics that ditch humor once they develop dramatic plot.
What I was describing was something many people who are happy to work from home have said about their jobs. Others cite their terrible commute as the reason they love not having to go into the office.
If you don’t want to give up a part of your home to your job that’s totally fine. But don’t go around saying that everyone should do things your way. Many people are quite happy working from home, and cite having more time for their family and hobbies, and never having to deal with annoying meetings or commutes.
You can see many examples in the comments on this very post, as well as the sheer number of people quitting when their jobs tried to force them back into the office.
I’d say it depends on the job and the person. If it’s the sort of job that can be done remotely, and the office culture is such that people are constantly getting interrupted by people ‘just passing by’ and ‘oh one more quick question’, and/or dragged into hours-long meetings that could easily have been a quick email thread, then it’s not a stretch at all to see that WFH has improved their productivity.
Well, good news—Macy’s has brought them back.
No, Musk is an annoying slime ball with a ton of money thanks to mommy and daddy. But thanks to good PR in the past there are a lot of people that worship the ground he walks on, so we need to keep his stupidity visible in the media so that number doesn’t grow.
Doubt it. Most pythons are surprisingly picky eaters.
Take one of mine. ‘Only mice, only live, and no white ones!’ is the usual dinner order. And sometimes they’ll snub that mouse if it doesn’t meet their standards. I feel cats should take notes.
Burmese are pretty chill. This isn’t ’looking for food’, this is ‘I found a hot water bottle’.
People who have no experience with snakes always seem to have the silliest ideas about what they’re like.
It is, though—women having children later in life are at higher risk for complications for both themselves and the baby. It also has a higher risk of birth defects.
