Went through the first half of your post confused; couldn’t remember when Indiana Jones was ever a substitute teacher :V

“That’s how I found my wife!” said divorced man with a restraining order.

He isekais before the tropes of Isekai are established (1970/80s I think), so they go completely over his head. So, for example, when the tsundere elf denies liking him, he takes it at face value and leaves rather then stay in what he believes to be hostile company.

The Supreme Court call that “compelling”

After a crushing electoral defeat in 2018, one senior opposition politician told the Financial Times how he had spent the night in a “humble home” to learn what it was like, proudly showing pictures he had taken on his mobile phone.

“After I returned to Mexico City, it struck me that perhaps my maid lived in a similar sort of home, so I showed her the photos and sure enough it turned out that her home was very similar,” he beamed.

This… this is probably the single most out-of-touch thing I’d ever rich. A rich dude took pictures of a normal house, and then bragged to his maid that he went there.

I can’t decide if my disgust is greater than my amusement in knowing there’s no way Russia would bother delivering those letters regardless.

Said the parents: “Over my child’s dead body!”

To save people from having to squint at the small text; top chart is measured in seconds, bottom chart is measured in days.

Another video distributed by Russian state news agency RIA showed an inscription in an unidentified book supposedly recovered in the arrest — signed in Russian with the words “signature illegible.”

This whole article is just bonkers.

“Critical Race Theory”; it’s a college-level class about how racism affects the recording of history, but the term has been misappropriated for several years now to mean any acknowledgement of the USA’s past (and current) struggles with racism. The Civil War, Jim Crow Laws, and the Civil Rights Movement are all getting lumped together with the term (as well as other major events) and has been used as an umbrella term to restrict schools’ abilities to teach those subjects.

So it’s too much work to list the fees they’re already changing people? Makes perfect sense, just like how grocery stores don’t show the price of each item until you’re already checking out.

Unfortunately, it seems most politicians are Ghost types, since it never seems to affect them.

I once challenged myself with building a Wizard that was mute; Catapult was my primary damage-dealing spell (along with some cantrip that let me make a shadowy thing that could hit anything near it).
