does the Mushroom Kingdom have a Department of Transportation?

the reason I ask is because it doesn't seem like Jolly Roger Bay ever needed a ship in the first place.

point A: a ledge next to a wall

point B: a cave where stalagmites fall over for no reason

then they built a bridge out of blocks to the ship which temporarily activates after you step on a switch; why not just finish the nearly completed bridge with non-magical material? and then they built a canon to launch to the ship (in case you're in a REALLY big hurry?) so you don't even need the bridge, just really good aim. I bet they sunk that ship out of sheer incompetence.

Read the article and yeah it does have a problem with that and several other problems and has had it since 2016 I want to say. At least since the end of Season 5. 

Wait you have a problem with the show or the people posting the images?

I have a question!

Inquiring minds want to know!

I don't fully understand the question?

Hey all, thanks for joining a worthy and universal cause.

This is a topic for learning about the straight community and hear about our foibles as we live together on this big blue marble. Please no straight edge jokes; if you want a joke, look at your driver's license.

Now you may be asking yourselves what all these letters mean, so here you go:

s- the 19th letter of the alphabet
t- the 20th letter of the alphabet
r- the 18th letter of the alphabet
a- the 1st letter of the alphabet
i- the 9th letter of the alphabet
g- the 7th letter of the alphabet
h- the 8th letter of the alphabet
t- the 20th letter of the alphabet

A few other terms....

Hetero- it means the same thing but it's in Latin.
Binary- like some kind of old computer code or something.

Feel free to voice your support for our life-giving, family-raising, God-given identity or just say hi.

Also playing Fortnight or any other hobbies is good so you can take care of your mental health if that does it for you.  Really any distraction or creative thing you are doing at leasts gives you something you are doing which is not directly tied to COVID-19.   

It's making me mad a lot too though, because these rando squadmates are dumb as heck, or have no mics, or are children. So what do I do

Increased number of STDs in Hawaii linked to online dating

https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/increased-number-stds-hawaii-linked-003542697.html

Hawaii health officials recorded 7,732 cases of chlamydia in 2018, up from 5,972 cases in 2008. Gonorrhea more than doubled over the past 10 years from 611 to 1,496 cases. Syphilis infections increased to 180 cases from 38 a decade ago, officials said.

More connections with many more people are made rapidly through online dating services, officials said.

"That sets the stage for the infections to be spread," Hasty said. "Lack of regular screenings or routine screenings contributes to increasing rates."

Also, being a dirty, filthy hoe is a major contributing factor, but they never seem to mention it in these articles.  Weird.

https://www.engadget.com/2019/09/11/gamestop-to-close-over-200-stores/

Just two months after GameStop announced ambitious plans to breathe new life into its stores, the company has announced that between 180 and 200 stores around the world will be closing their doors for good before the year is out -- and more closures are coming.

The company's stock price is at $4.59 right now--it was $11.58 in mid-March, an outstanding ~2/3 drop in only 6 months. It was at $27.09 three years ago, about a ~5/6 drop: https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/gme

Camelot331 (mentioned in a previous post above) just did a video going over their recent losses: a magnificent 415mil L O S S for the quarter that ended August 3: https://youtu.be/k4ARilbqv4I

Despite these closures -- and efforts to revamp the better-performing stores -- it's unlikely that GameStop's fortunes will change any time soon, thanks largely to the end of the current console generation and subsequent weaker title launches. As a result, Bell said, the company expects its year-over-year sales to be down for the next three to four quarters.

I remember their being some talk by a mod a while back that a forum upgrade looked pretty easy to do and would modernize this place with some new features that are pretty standard elsewhere.

Whatever happened to that?

a while back

a while

2.0?

Lindy did say it was "imminent" a little over a year ago, so maybe he forgot what year it was and it's coming now.

Happy 10th anniversary to 2.0, everyone!
