7, but yes, he's said that he's the same person he was in first grade.

Surprising amount of Esperanto speakers, and a few people who speak it as a native tongue.

Cue "Cat's in the Cradle"...

You're not throwing propane bombs at libraries if you're doing some sort of "precisely targeted attack".

Don't forget that they're also very much into the idea of eugenics.

Yeah, this should've been going since at least the ICE bullshit started, at latest. One resolution fails? Another one, right then. Keep it going, constantly, Enemy At The Gates style. Make them defend the position, make them justify it to their supporters.

Trans people all over the US still go to Thailand and similar markets because to literally fly to another country, get bottom surgery, spend the 3-6 month recovery period there, and THEN fly back to the US is STILL cheaper and faster than trying to get it done here.

The issue is that these surgical robots are a goldmine for companies specializing in medical devices. I work for one. They look fancy, they're available to buy on loan if you can't afford the several million dollars, and they sound modern.

Meanwhile, the instruments are not cross-compatible (meaning you can't run Medtronic instruments on a US Medtech robot, for instance), so while they're reusable and sterilizable (unlike most other handheld devices which are designed to be one-case-only), you have to buy a whole suite of endocutters, staplers, and whatever else you want that robot to be able to do in order to make it do that. PLUS there's a proprietary computer system, an imaging system, the software to run those, often a televisual rig at the other end for the surgeon to run...you can get really pricey for these, real quick, and that's not to mention the staple cartridges, the trocars, all sorts of stuff that can be proprietary.

A 3/3 flying, that grants cheap flying for no tap, and gives you life AND gets stronger every draw? All for a 5-drop?

For those who don't know - almost everyone knows where most major missile silos ARE, in most nuclear-capable countries. From the time the rocket is fired, you, no matter which country, have about 5-10 minutes to decide whether it's aimed at you, and whether to fire back.

Officially, they're just housing them until their official removal procedures. Unofficially, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these people aren't disappearing into the slave trade as soon as it's convenient.

It actually assumes that Iran doesn't know the capabilities of its own neighbors, since a lot of Middle Eastern nations, including Israel, are operators of the F15.
