I think a simple matter that if you roll around on the ground "in pain," you get removed for medical attention and for the rest of the game for monitoring. If you're injured, you're injuried. If you're being a whiny baby, you don't deserve to be in the game. If you're faking, you deserve to be ejected. But in all cases it comes to the same conclusion.

Oh, and this doesn't automatically mean a foul. It's not like a person can't get hurt when no foul occurs. I hurt myself stepping out of bed in the morning.

And to preempt an argument... "there's no study that says beards/razor bumps interfere with gas masks"... There are. Most of them say minimal beards/hair is fine (less than 1/16th of an inch) to get a mask seal, where 1/8 can already lead to issues. But it's understudied. The risk of getting it wrong is people's lives.

I was coming in here to disagree with you, because I've heard this same thing, but I won't argue a point unless I check my sources first, and sure enough, you're correct (except maybe that stubble is fine). OSHA even states that tight-fitting respirators are not to be used by those with facial hair that extends past/across the seal. So one could argue that if wearing a gas mask is a requirement, anybody who has facial hair (other than a trimmed moustache) is unable to fulfill that requirement by OSHA rules alone.

Our combination microwave/air fryer/oven has this cool function where after the timer hits 0 but before it beeps, it keeps turning until it is back in the original position (so if you have, for example, a coffee cup in there, the handle will face the same direction as it did when put in. That buffer to pull it out without beeping was kind of amazing.

True, a lot of options go away, but not everything. When I was 18, my dad died, and I (the youngest) was an adult, so my mom went back to school and became a nurse. She'd been a school secretary for most of my childhood (and ran a childcare center out of our house prior to that), so it was basically her chance to follow her own career path. She became an Nurse Practitioner, and has been doing that for the past 20 years (she's semi-retired). She turns 70 next year.

There is a whole section to each DQ for Regional Menu. Some places will have Steak Fries, or... I can't remember what else. In the North West (US) we had Ultimates and Deluxe burgers, which were the smaller patties (want to say 1/6lb), american cheese, and thousand island dressing (Ultimates were doubles and had bacon as well).

When I was at DQ School in Minneapolis, i got to meet store managers and owners from all over, and it was really interesting to learn all the regional fare (and apparently South American DQs, at least then, were purely Treat Centers, which is what I imagine OP was assuming they'd all be).

That is entirely different store to store. The one I managed and our sister store (owned by the same family) used a conveyer belt style flame broiler (automatic broiler). Far more consistent and less labor intensive.

They're certainly not ice cream/soft serve stores, but here we are.

Funny enough, the milk they use (at least the supplier to the store I managed) is nonfat milk. So the first listed ingedient is nonfat milk, and the second is milk fat, lol.

I couldn't get into XV myself.

But XIV... if you can get through the first 50 levels, it is truly incredibly. I get that is a huge ask. And skipping it is a bad idea, because it really builds the setting and story. Possibly watching a youtube video of, like, all the cut scenes in order maybe.

But seriously, the end of Shadowbringers (the third expansion) is my favorite end to a video game I've played, the music is awesome (particularly in Shadowbringers and Endwalker, though I got to the end fight for Heavensward and had to just stop and listen to the music before I queued for the final battle as well).

And more importantly, there is just a ton to do in the game. You don't run out of things. You might get bored of leveling all 33 jobs on a single toon, so you can take breaks to gamble at a giant mini-game casino (complete with chocobo racing, card tournaments, jump puzzles, a game where you ride in an airplane-on-a-track ride and shoot targets, and having your minions fight on a small battlefield, for example), make outfits (glam is the real end-game), fight and level in separate instanced battle areas, PVP (only if you want), set up your own private island and farm, and I can't even think of what else. There is no FOMO because there's always more available to do, you just pick what you feel like doing at the time.

Sorry, I just have a ton of fun with this game, and having come from WoW back at the end of Shadowlands, it feels like it succeeds at everything WoW failed at (you don't want to do Mythic Dungeons? Well I guess fuck off until the next patch).

So yeah, I'd recommend XIV, I guess. If you can get through the first 50 levels (which I maintain are still better than WoW).

"Manhandling"?! That's not man-handling, that's assault. The Senator was assaulted. Chuck Schumer is such a spineless lick-spittle, even when it concerns the physical assault of those in his own Party.

Also, if they all collectively called it out, call it the "Pro-ICE Bill" or "Pro-kidnapping Bill" or whatever. Make the vote about that. Call the Republican who sponsored the Bill a coward for trying to do it, and a fool for thinking it would work.

"Why did you vote against the Bill condemning attacks on Pro-Israel protesters?"

"I didn't. I voted against a bill that supported the mass deportations and unconstitutional actions made by ICE, which we are absolutely against because we support due process. The bill was a cowardly and foolish attempt to get us to support this despicable practice by pretending it's about something else, but we're not fools or cowards ourselves, so we won't fall for it."

"But the Bill is called..."

"Sycophantsayswhat?"

"What?

"I guess that sort of trick works on you."
