I failed to parse that headline and am stuck seeing "15bln in blow."

I don't know the why but the first thing I said when I found out was "Polonium".

When I was in my mid 30s, a cute young 24 year old online started hitting on me.

Turned out she had three kids with three different dads and the most recent one was in jail for domestic abuse.

I still almost went for it though. Problem is my life was in the shitter and couldn't even afford to fly down or for her up to see me.

We were 'together' for about six months when I wised up and broke it off.

Daylast, primarily to screw up that stupid "Day ending in a y" joke.

Even on reddit I'd get replies to years old comments. I remember one user watching Breaking Bad and reading the old response threads and engaging with me from there.

I don't mind at all, especially as I'm trying to be uplifting with my comments.

I'm talking about Lemmy bots in general, on any instances.

I view all and have to block bots fairly often as they're posting things in languages I can't read in large amounts.

I think they're supposed to use language tags and are not, but I just block them because of there being a large amount of unhelpful content.

And let's be honest, there's always gonna be a ton of that, hence my filtering. But if the people making bots to post content could make sure the posts are properly marked, I wouldn't need to block them and would continue to see the content they post that I can read.

None of them do their language settings well.

My point was more that some people did the right thing, not that it's enough to eliminate a statistical slump.

Some people of the time would think the Chinese were heartless people to do what they did, and some quietly raised their other children, that's all.

And if even that isn't true, so be it, as I could have fallen for propaganda and cannot locate the original source, but here is another showing that some people didn't just fall in line.

While that definitely happened, the thankful reality is that many families raised their daughters unofficially.

"Bunny! Ball ball!!"

Hudson Hawk.

Bruce Willis and Danny Aiello are cat burglars who synchronize their movements by singing, which does not seem at all subtle or stealthy.

It's batshit insane. But it's also very fun. I saw it in the theater.

The hobo code and hobo nickels made it into the game too. It was fairly comprehensive.
