If you can reach out to a local expert, there’s probably an assumed standard for “reasonable” that the state goes by. Vague laws like that frequently just mean that you use the standard set by an administrative admin or the courts.

We already elect ours, and it is a clusterfuck. Elections need to have public interest or they just become a contest to see who can whip the most weirdos into the booth.

No. Imagining an independent future for any state (including California and Texas) is pure cope. The states are so interdependent that attempting to secede would be ruinous for the state in question.

The only exceptions I can think of are Alaska and Hawaii, which might be able to survive if they found another country to keep them supplied and economically connected.

Nope! Medical knowledge was very anti-masturbation for a long time. Devices like this, genital mutilation, and corn flakes (no, really) were all popularized in the US by Dr. Kellogg to prevent masturbation.

Probably? While it’s weird and gross enough to current sensibilities to be sarcasm, these devices were absolutely used to prevent masturbation for several decades in the US so…who the fuck knows…?

Some units of the pixel 6a may have bad batteries, and a software patch to reduce charging capacity is rolling out.

You can get a different pixel model or apply the software update that prevents overcharging and be safe.

They’re saying that our current ideas of male beauty have been warped heavily by drugs and plastic surgery such that we consider naturally attractive men to look unremarkable.

I don’t think it’s really considered very safe anymore, although it is still very popular.

I agree, except there are a lot of fucking weirdos who care way too much about random stuff. I can totally see a random 4channer running a bot to smear a TV show they don’t like or something.

Serious answer: you don’t.

HOWEVER, it doesn’t really matter. The world is a big place, and you can find a decent size group who will expound any shitty opinion when given the opportunity. You already couldn’t blindly trust the information or opinions you found online, so whether it comes from a LLM, a troll farm, or just an idiot doesn’t really matter too much.

To be fair, a lot of those have marriage ages set to 18 unless you’re ~17 years old and get the approval of a judge. I’m not saying it’s okay, because it isn’t, but when you hear “child marriage” you tend to think 12, not 17.

It’s legal in a lot of the US, yes. Sometimes it requires approval from a judge, 4 states have no minimum age at all.

It definitely can be that easy, yes. My most successful day was just a hook (no bait) off the side of the boat while we just let the line hang.

That being said, you can learn the local varieties of fish, their preferences for different kinds of bait, and you can explore your local area for good fishing spots.

If you have the option, there’s probably a 90 year old Korea vet who will tell you the arcane arts of catching swordfish in the rockies somewhere.

absolutely

I don’t know if you can play games on this, but I know you definitely won’t want to.

I imagine it’ll stretch like any other part of your body with practice.

That being said, I had a roommate in college who you could hear that his stream was wider than most. I imagine he might be able to pull this off.

Students can keep a phone in their bag if they really need it. The fact that we ever allowed kids to scroll instead of paying attention in class is absurd.

We use liters for soft drinks and liquor, but gallons for fuel, milk, and water. For recipes we use fluid ounces or cups since gallons are kind of a large for that.

It’s actually a mixed system, similar to the UK but with less metric in the mix.

My partner had one until about a year ago when it broke irreversibly.

They’re still making payments on it and the thing was already on its third screen when it died. They’re cool and I think the idea is good, but I think the whole “bendable screen” idea is fundamentally flawed for smartphones.

My family have something similar going on, they’re 18 and 46.

We’re all politely ignoring it because their parents think trying to forbid it will make it more attractive.
