if you have two fletner rotors, you can attach two lights and and a giant face statue to it and make people really regret that bottle of rum.

“Suggests”

Fucking cowards are the reason he’s in office. If they didn’t water everything down and blow up every little thing by his opponents, we probably wouldn’t be in this mess

even as an american, american cheese is disgusting.

I can taste the emulsifier they add to it so it “melts” nicer.

I will disagree with pasta and cheddar, though. Mac and Cheese is wonderful. (well. from scratch mac and cheese. blue boxes need not apply)

This is largely a myth. It would only apply to large cities, and then, the fresh water sources were frequently protected by law in cities.

Alcohol itself doesn’t actually destroy the pathogens in question- booze was made by microbes, after all, and as for bacterial… only beer and liquors was boiled, and simply adding it to already-contaminated water wouldn’t make it safer; since that only happens at much higher concentrations of alchohol than you’d find, even in liquors. It does inhibit bacterial growth, though, usually people were mixing booze into water to make things taste better. (Similar to how modern restaurants will frequently add lemon slices to cover the taste of tap water.)

in terms of maintaining hydration, alcohol- even weak alcohols- are very much not good for that, even 3% alcohols, particularly in high-heat or under activity.

Boiling water was discussed in Roman and Greek writings well before the medieval period, as well- mostly in the context of making it not taste funky; and usually they were talking about filtering it to remove contaminants (for example, near mining operations.)

Again, streams rivers flowing were generally safe for consumption and would only become unsafe as a result from urban pollution, of which, there were controls in place to protect at least some water ways and wells.

they’re both drunk, though. so that’s more than normal.

To be clear, the reason Fox News and dozens of other right wing propaganda outlets exist is precisely because the news coverage made anything else untenable for Nixon.

That is how long republicans have been working to overturn and eradicate our democracy.

They impeached Clinton for less.

So. I just learned Musk is bald.

so all the other movies where all the action follows a set pattern… are not boring and depressing?

I think one of the reasons I liked Rogue One was that it’s “win condition” wasn’t “every one lived happily ever after”. although I will say, if you have enough time to find a beach and make out, you probably have enough tome to find a shuttle, or something.

(the other reason I liked Rogue One was Alan Tudyk as K2-S0)(okay, actually, that’s why I loved Rogue One. Sue me.)

They are unconscious in less than 10 seconds (sometimes almost instantaneously) and they aren’t going to wake up the moment you release. Similarly, ask any climber to tie a quick figure eight (or bowline if they are old or european) and they can do that blindfolded, in the rain, in like 10 seconds.

So assuming even two killers? Yeah, a minute is more than enough time.

You, eh, ever try to lift 150-200 pounds of dead weight? while trying to make it look like that dead weight did it himself?

it’s not just the fight. It’s not just the struggle. just for the record the camera was in the hallway outside and not in the room. a minute is barely enough time to get in, kill him, and get out.

To also then string him up, and remove whatever you need to, to make it look like suicide? three minutes is pushing it, even with 2 guys- and remember, the more guys you add the more potential you have for some one talking.

That makes a bit more sense. one minute was not quite enough to get in, string up a noose, put him in the noose, and get out; never mind the presumed struggle and/or drugging or whatever.
