[Loud Whispers]

North Dakota citizens will vote on June 12 on an incredibly dangerous ballot initiative. If passed, it would allow people to claim that their personal religious beliefs give them the right to break non-discrimination, health, safety, and child protection laws.

Hey guys, so I heard there's this one religion, where they worship this really cool blood God...

I wholly endorse this religion. So, does that mean that if I move to teh Dakota and sign up with this totally valid religion that I can then go about killing cats wantonly and telling Dwarves wat to do and eventually starving and/or setting them on fire when I get bored with them or they make a mistake?

If so, then I am conflicted... While I do like cats, being allowed to do as I wish with them is a plus...but I like cats see the conundrum?

Except that someone has to determine what "invested government interest" means, and as such the law will probably be overseen by a committee, and since this committee is probably going to be fundamentalist christians, they'll crack down on certain crazy people, but they'll let people persecute homosexuals, or de-legalise abortion because freedom of religion just means you're free to choose whatever christian denomination you want.

As long as it isn't one of the lunatic denominations, that is.

Well of course, some of them actually allow people of the same gender to marry in their church!

Personal rage moment.

So I woke up this morning at 8, after going to bed at 4. I couldn't get back to sleep and my stomach was growling, so I go downstairs to get some food. Toaster is missing due to kitchen renovations, so I have some cereal instead... few hours later my stomach is growling again, I have some soup and crackers. Now, less than three hours later it's grumbling again, frigging hell body, why are you so fecking high maintenance? I've fed you twice already today! I hate this frigging ugly meatsack.

Also, steam is making me install DirectX again, considering I just went through this twice yesterday, I think it's up to date.

Cereal and soup aren't exactly....toothsome meals. When you eat light you feel hungry more often.

[GlyphGryph]

Cereal is like an anti-hunger-fighter. I think it just makes most people more hungry rather quickly.

Soup is... it depends on the soup. I've found lentil soup to be filling, delicious, and long lasting.

[Aklyon]

Cereal is most certainly not anti-hunger in sufficient quantity. As long as it isn't something like fruity pebbles, which is more milk than food, really.

[GlyphGryph]

I don't know, the hunger comes from the surplus of sugars spiking your system and then leaving it empty, doesn't it - wouldn't more cereal simply exacerbate the problem?

So instead of the sporicide that we were using to clean the biosafety hood (because that resulted in a tech going to the ER and OSHA getting called in), we've moved on to bleach. Functional, but the surfaces are stainless steel which apparently does not like bleach very much. The solution to the inevitable rusting is to wipe it down with water after the necessary contact time, but am I the only person that realizes that "slow down the corrosion" is not a viable long-term solution? We could always go back to alcohol, guys, that seemed to work fine.

This was cheerios. The soup was condensed tomato soup with half a can of water.

Doesn't for me. Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch is rather filling for something I'll eat two or three bowls of.

I reccomend Gamma Rays.
