My girlfriend and I share lists on ours, she can add things and I can see them for when I go to the store. In theory cause she usually has to tell me.about it first so I remember to look at it. Makes Xmas food shopping much simpler. I suppose there is a text sharing one but so far 'ourgroceries' ( think that's right) only bugs me to buy the full app when I use it, but otherwise no biggie. Plus you can disable notifications from apps anyways, least I thought so, cause I probably had one from there and said nope, don't care. Maybe it tells you when someone else put something there if they are on, oh well if I'm missing them too cause we talk still heh.

I see it as basically it comes down to common morals, character traits whatever.If someone you're interested in wants to do the opposite of your preference in the way of rights for a specific set of people that's probably not due to the specific group as it's more a not seeing eye to eye on on rights issues and there would be more to come in that relationship.

I'm straight but if I met a girl (passed that time forever hopefully) and she didn't want to give people the same rights as themselves, well yeah not going to be interested anymore. I don't even need a qualifier on people, we're all humans and deserve the same rights to love who we want and be the person we are (as long as it doesn't infringe on others besides their 'decency')

Last time I read about it I was curious who he'd play, I was just listening to Dune before seeing this and finally realized that was the only real role (unless it was a recast one, but that seemed unlikely) that'd be worthwhile for a more well known actor....I guess it could have been the guild navigator, I forgot about him.

Mean there are a few minor roles that they could expand on but why would they focus on irrelevant items when there's so much story to cover? Oh....

I say that as enjoying Dune as a cinematic movie but they really didn't do the story justice. So much great intrigue story with it barely discussed. I only did watch them once so maybe missed some finer points

I truely hope that remains our country's policy. What a great way to say it as well. We're all human and neighbors, living on this tiny (in a galactic sense) rock so let's make our corner of it accepting to those that want the same.

Been awhile since I saw that one but I do chuckle when I remember that bit, 'whats back there?...don't worry about it buddy'. Paraphrased cause it's been so long.

I remember thinking about when South Park was as old as Simpsons was when they made the joke of Simpsons did it, now South Park has really done it all too.

I was curious why it dropped from like 1.68 to 1.40 recently (BC, not coast) I figured it was just cause I filled up, not really but I could probably rely on that occuring. I gotta fill up within the next week though so I'm sure it'll adjust back. I only gotta get gas every couple weeks for those wondering why this timeline sounds odd.

My dad was status native, I couldn't get that....now I'll say what is my recollection because it's been many years but I got the impression was because they (government...other? Unsure) disbanded the tribe for whatever reason that was. Mean I don't want to claim rights or anything but a shame of whatever the reason a tribe was to not recognize it means someone doesn't get those rights. I sort of thought it was cause my Mom was too white for many years, so sort of unsure. It's unfortunately too late to get specifics but think the band being disbanded was the reason and a poor one. Apparently he tried to get me those rights at least once but was denied.

Looks like it could almost be a cornetto. I love those waffle cone treats, some of the best memories with my dad buying them for me (well I am a chubby dude heh) and if not, close enough for an 80s chubby kid from Canada. Even better when some asshole gets his comupance for being a dick. Oddly I had more of this text with a British accent in my head. Time to watch Hot Fuzz again.

No one ever brings up Repossessed, to be fair I don't recall much except two jokes where he wasn't even in the scene. I do recall enjoying it as a spoof comedy a lot (watched all I could of them back then), though I wasn't even a teen yet so it didn't take much to entertain me.

That's basically right...

See the TURTLE of Enormous Girth, On his shell he holds the Earth...

From the Dark Tower novels if someone wonders. Also sort of It too. Stephen King, just in case, sure many didn't want to Google.

Wait North American and UK doesnt (edit: fixed gammar) even do DST at the same time? I thought that was half the point of it,so 'everyone' stays the same as always. I swear I've heard about ditching DST for years here in BC Canada but still had that week from hell earlier this month.

I guess there's an argument that UK and North America are far enough off that it doesn't matter, but I just hate time change. Actually I hate most change but this seems worse cause it's government mandated twice a year. When I was partying it was fun to have an extra hour once per year but I'm old now.
