Stupid

||She said she hated the child because of the family of his father, but she took him from them to torture him and later kill him while her little girl watched. Is she metally ill? She should never be allowed in society again. If ever a case would be made for the death penalty, hers would be front and center. The female partner is no better, and should receive the same. ||

@Klaus said in Rach Gm Prelude for Electric Guitar:

I wanted to hate it. And I hated the beginning.

But overall, I'm impressed. Pretty good!

That was my take. I also noticed later that some of the parts of melody lines I felt I may have heard in other rock music so I wondered how much Rach could possibly have influenced the Carlos Santana And Satriani style guitarists

I'm sure it is well-intentioned but I doubt the app will enlighten anyone who is 'not living in fear'.

"somewhat divisive figure "

I LOL'ed at that.

I am guessing the guy was quite hard of hearing. But, it was funny that they only stopped him during the daytime from playing loud music. Maybe they knew he went to bed early and slept in!

Yeah, I have noticed that too.

In an interview with UK’s The Sun, Prowse daughter Rachel confirmed that her father, who suffered from Alzheimer’s, had been hospitalized for the last two weeks with Covid. Confirming the cause of death, Rachel Prowse said, “It’s horrible that Covid restrictions meant we did not get to see him and say goodbye. But when we went to collect his stuff from the hospital the nurse said what a cool guy he was. He was such a larger-than-life character. He would have loved to see himself trending on Twitter.”

@nobodyssock said in Dr. Scott Atlas resigns from virus task force:

He was only hired because of his one qualification, to repeat and promote the Trump narrative of "just ignore it".

THat's right. Come to Chinatown! New York is OPEN, baby!

When your husband left you did you have to pay him anything?

More Japanese people will die this month from suicide than died in the entirety of the Vietnam war.

(Not trying to make light of what is an awful situation)

Isn't it amazing that everybody still had multiple young children?

These days, everything has to be perfect for most people before they decide to become parents: Safe job and sound financial situations, a home suitable for children, good schools in the environment etc.

A part of that difference is of course explained by effective birth control, but I believe that's not the whole story.

Those that only worry about covid deaths are making a terrible mistake.

The world is not that simple.

There is no reason to believe that a 100% 2-month shutdown would be any more beneficial to the country than a 0% 2-month shutdown.

It might save the lives of some but take the lives of others. There is no way of knowing which.

Kissinger has a scary take on state of US -China relations.

I don't know that I agree with Kissinger. I think we can ill-afford to support a regime that imprisons 2-3 million in re-education camps. The changes we have hoped to see in an opening China have clearly not materialized.

The way we are going, we'll soon be begging them to help us with our re-education camps.

@Mik Great story Mik.

Isn't that what they have in Xinjiang? A huge organ farm?

It was a drone. Iran has them. Maybe he pissed off a mullah.

It could happen.
