From my perspective, he's still salty about her making fun of him back in the 90s on her daily TV talk show. He made it worse by not letting it go and taking out full page ads in the New York Times in response. She would then show the ads to the audience and read it on the air. Then she would make new jokes about what a giant man-baby he was.

That was enough to convince me, then, that Donald Trump was not a good person. That was about 25 years ago. I have not changed my mind about him. In fact, I dislike him much more now than I did then. It astounds me that anyone voted for that moron.

Switching sides? Donald Trump has never had any real interest in helping Ukraine. That was true the first time he was president. This is not new.

Perhaps. But if Iran was the source, and that source was incorrect, the response would probably not be to claim that someone on the US side was leaking classified information.

In bitching about leaks in his administration, Trump confirmed that the sites were, indeed, not completely destroyed.

This is the kind of thing where it is only believable until someone goes outside and looks at what happened, then the story falls apart.

It's Iran, and a nuclear site, and the location of a recent military attack, so I am under no illusions that this information would be trivial to obtain, but I really doubt Iran would have any interest in promoting Trump's lie. I would also expect Iran to be more than happy to announce "You Missed."

Leaked information or straight from ground zero doesn't really matter. How did Trump expect this sort of thing to stay quiet? No-one outside of the US would feel even slightly compelled to comply with his narrative.

Even for Trump this is stupid.

That kind of surgery can leave you disfigured like you were in a car accident and will likely lead to bone issues later in life.

As a tall man, I can tell you that personality is way more important. Girls who actually care about your height are not worth your time.

There are two answers to your question.
Most password cracking operations target a database of user accounts in bulk. As long as the hacker is not targeting your friend specifically, they should be fine.
If your friend is the target, one or two successful hacks could make their other passwords vulnerable.

Maybe change it up a bit? Decide that when you drink, you will only drink premium beer. Refuse to buy anything but expensive beer that is not on sale. After buying a few of those, your desire to save money will begin to heavily influence your desire to buy it at all. This has the added benefit of making all of the cheap beers seem sub-standard and not worthy of purchase.

Yes, it's normal.

I think the part you need to try now is to forgive yourself. You were six. You would likely not make the same choice today. That event is in the past. Try to leave it in the past. You can not go back.

We all have regrets. We try to learn from our mistakes as best we can and move on. That is all we can do.

Tyler Perry?

Back before the election, Trump spoke about the fictional character Hannibal Lecter, at least twice, like he was a real person. Trump was never cognitively there!

I must say, the butter is the only one these I would actually buy. Even then, only if I was going to make toast or something. I use store brand butter for baking.

That was the plan for this administration all along. Trump is a Russian asset. He has never been interested in helping Ukraine achieve peace.

 

The story is about an artist who isn't very successful until he notices some tiny creatures (aliens?) and they somehow get into his eyes. This makes his art really great, but also drives him crazy. His art is full of those tiny faces, because that is what he sees.

Not sure if it was in a book or a magazine, but I would love to read it again.
