Oh. I figured Karmakaze had summed it up quite well. I was waiting for Jaxx to reply.

Oh, yeah. Blue was supposed to reply to Jaxx. Sorry for the delay. No excuse, just out to lunch, figuratively speaking.

Hey, everybody wants something.
Some people want many somethings. And fixers are in the business of things that are wanted. They're not fixers; they're tarbabies. |

Not on my end. You'd asked a cogent question.

QUOTE (Bastard @ Feb 11 2024, 12:12 AM) Karmakaze grabs him by the back of his shirt, placing her pocket knife against the back of his neck, and speaks clearly into his ear; """Your deliveries are short. It has not gone unnoticed. The clients on both sides want you gone, but your fixer thinks you're worth a second chance. I am paid the same either way, so leaving you alive is a lot cleaner. So do you want to stop fragging around, stay alive, make everyone's life easy? Or do you want to keep fraggin' around, make you fixer and his client look bad, and force me to come back and dispose of a corpse?""" She waits for his answer. Karmakaze reminds me of a training session in which I once took part for Greenpeace. We were learning how to engage with police who were trying to clear out a protest. I was chained to the axle of a car blocking a doorway so a meeting could be obstructed. (All hypothetical for training purposes.) One of my coworkers played the role of a police officer trying to clean up the blockade. She was a small woman with a warm personality whom all of us really liked. Until she took on the role. I knew it was all role play, but, Geez! I had never felt so dominated as I did then. |

Dumpshock having issues?
Had trouble logging in this week, and now my time stamps are 10 minutes behind my computers clock. |

QUOTE (Koekepan @ Mar 29 2024, 10:03 PM) One does not capitalise adjectives. QUOTE Words that come from the names of places – for example languages, nationalities and adjectives that refer to people or things from a country, region or city – are capitalised. We also capitalise nouns and adjectives that come from the names of religions. Some Canadians speak French. Londoners eat a lot of Indian food. Most Muslims fast during the day for Ramadan. From https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/gra...20Indian%20food. and corroborated many times elsewhere. I didn't mean to be snarky, hence the smiley faces. |

For a while a couple of weeks ago, Dumpshock was acting up, and one of the apparent symptoms was that notifications of new posts were going missing.
