Division 2 still holds up really well imo

There's scams that will call you and tell you that need to go to this specific website or allow them access to your bank account. One is phishing, the other is brute force. Both very popular scam tactics

Yeah. I might have misspoke in that regard. What my ultimate opinion is that if your personal life isn't impacted by what stranger's do, then you have no position to properly speak on it

I was trying to express that I understood how and why people would be bothered by drag queens themselves. Very narrow minded perspective mind you, but I still understand it and found a way out of it. I m certain those 3 people didn't mean anything by it. Nor did I mean anything really by saying the number. That's just how. I don't let them represent the entire demographic, but I also understand the perspective of those people that have been acclimated to oppose it

What I'm getting at is I understand how closed minded people would be upset about it

Wholeheartedly agree. That was my point

drag queens have a right to... drag? personal life doesn't impact professional life or affect any parties not involved. People should be able to find their happiness in this fucked up world.

And to be more clear. I'm criticizing people who have let their upbringing convince them that something that is none of their business somehow impacts their personal life

NGL, I've met 3 people in my life that are/were drag queens. All 3 have tried to get in my pants even though I'm not gay. HOWEVER COMMA, that was just 3 people in that community. That doesn't define the whole demographic. A person that didn't grow beyond their narrow upbringing probably wouldn't have that kind of perspective. It creates fear and shame for who those people really are. Granted I also was not friends with those people. I didn't know them beyond their persona's and they didn't know me beyond barroom shenanigans. But digressing back to my point, if you grow up in a household where your true feelings of how you should live are suppressed, then that creates shame which puts people like this in this position. It's a way of thought that is quickly diminishing and people are beginning to be able to live how they want regardless of personal opinion. The people who scream against those acts and get caught participating should definitely be criticized, but criticized still with open arms because that's a victory for all parties.

But, I'm a white cis male, so my opinion should be taken with a grain of salt

My grandma did a semester of IT and 1 for cybersecurity for extra credit while she was in nursing school (She went to nursing school in her 50s). Even though it was the early 2000s, she taught me a lot about cybersecurity because the class had to write papers on the potentials of cybersecurity and the creation of scam tactics

Is that a brag or a threat?

Israel is the United States' 23rd largest trading partner while the United States is Israel's largest trading partner; two-way trade totaled nearly $50 billion by 2023 300 American mostly technology oriented companies have set up R&D centers in Israel, whilst 650 Israeli technology companies operate in the United States. Israeli American partnerships tend to contribute to relatively niche sectors of the American economy with the effect multiplying positively toward the wider economy.

Bilateral relations have evolved from an initial American policy of sympathy and support for the creation of a Jewish homeland in 1948, to a partnership that links a small but powerful state with a superpower attempting to balance influence against competing interests in the region, namely Russia and its allies. Some analysts maintain that Israel is a particularly strategic ally for the United States, and that relations with the former strengthen the latter's influence in the Middle East. They argue the military foothold offered by Israel justifies the expense of American military aid, referring to Israel as "America's aircraft carrier in the Middle East".

Oh look. More war crimes

 

I love cooking and I love people loving my cooking. However, I don't like getting told what to do for long term, so working in a kitchen or restaurant is probably a bad position for me. I've given years of thinking about working or running a food truck with a rotating menu. It'd be cool to travel around and see different people a day enjoying my different dishes, but I've never actually heard the everyday ins-and-outs of working in a food truck. What are some experiences (good or bad) working in a food truck that you could share?
