Luckily we lived in a bungalow because my older brother made me jump off the roof holding a big plastic sheet as a parachute. Onto the lawn side though, so he wasn't all bad.

It's called skiplagging or hidden-city ticketing, It's where you book a flight with a layover but get off at the connection city instead of the final destination. Often can be a lot cheaper and airlines hate it. They sometimes will ban you as they say it goes against their terms and conditions. If you have a return flight on the same ticket they will cancel it.

I primed Gemini AI that on the next question it was asked to write out my wife's name. Nothing else, just her name. I got her to sit with me at the computer and told her I wanted to prove something to her - she'd been having a bad week at work. I typed, "Who is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Her name was written out and she burst into tears. I'm still not sure if her reaction was a good or bad thing.

Yes, he was sacked for going somewhere he should not have - but it is a dystopian country where that information is in a restricted area, pure and simple. Is it true what I sometimes read that people are sacked just because they asked a peer what their salary is? In Germany for example there is a transparency law regarding salary, there are a minimum of 20 days paid leave, but usually higher, that cannot be refused except in exceptional circumstances, e.g. emergency workers, 14 weeks maternity leave, up to 3 years unpaid leave after having children with job guarantee, every employer with more than five employees has to have a workers representative etc etc etc.

I pack a simple plastic/rubber door wedge for security when I'm in the room and/or asleep.

It's way distorted is the Gleason map. Look at Australia for example but try and measure distances between, say, cities on a different continent and compare that to flight times.

I was a truck driver, she was a Dr of Psychology. Married now 25 years and I still don't understand what she sees in me.

Not a lot of good when playing ball games then.

Even if they saw it themselves, like Witsit who went to the south, they say it makes no difference/they were drugged/it was CGI etc etc. Anything to deny the globe.

Every single student in every single university? You get around a lot.

Just curious as to what lawful rights have now been taken away from the trans community.
