Went in and switched my default view off combined. Good luck! This sounds like a complicated issue, but I hope it actually turns out to be simple

bums me out how much i dislike the taste of carbonation, so I can't justify to myself getting a soda machine. love a fun kitchen gadget.

It seems like it to me, whenever I work outside in the summer

The vice president also suggested if the Watergate scandal that led to the end of Nixon’s presidency happened tomorrow, “It would be like a 12-hour news story.”

He added, “The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy.”

The "for all the wrong reasons" bit in the headline confused me. It gave me the impression that people were talking about the wrong part of his speech, but I think its intended meaning was just that he was talking up Nixon and comparing him to Trump and himself in the first place. I guess my confusion got me to read the article, so it served its purpose?

edit: oh hey someone already made my point and was more succinct about it. It doesn't look like things are federating properly in my direction right now. whoops!

Another said: “He had us scared, both [my children] and me, that if I told anything to the police and they arrested him, he was going to get out and kill us.”

I think it's fine that she killed her abuser, even if it wasn't the exact moment a threat was made. In a way, I think it's good if the killing happens in kidnapping cases like this one when the kidnapper is vulnerable, because the victim is more likely to survive. Poison, stabbing while they're asleep, stealing the gun they used to threaten you and hitting them in the back - it's cool. You tell someone they can't leave or you'll kill them, you are allowed to live exclusively on the whim of the person you threatened. That's where my opinion gets a bit controversial, I think.

I started looking for cases where victims of rape were thrown in jail for killing their rapist as it was happening, and I immediately found several different incidents and got depressed.

Hope this explains why I think my view would be unpopular.

I think many dv situations (definitely not all) amount to kidnapping and you should legally be allowed to kill the person holding you against your will in order to escape.

I feel like that cat is yelling at me to come through the picture and pet it

Have trouble buying that they hit the ice agent without evidence considering how often they've been proven to lie about shit.
