I didn't have enough information to work that out.
Having deliberately used up your 10 PM's in a short space of time (was there ever a nerdier set of messages in my inbox) you're in a better position to work that out and report back to us.
Gal's just trying to make himself feel better because a Brit told him he ain't acting right.
The thing is, he's too bloody daft to realise that God hating iniquity was the very point I was making about his crooked Catholic soul.
He's harping on about being one of God's chosen ones by zip code when at the time his ancestors were on an entirely different continent. He's trying to take personal credit for defeating the British because his grandparents were lucky enough to be allowed into America after the fact.
Like being born in a halfway decent country is an act of heroism.
Ps. I'm chuffed to bits you got your independence, it was exactly the right thing to do and the right way to be. It's just a shame you haven't the sense to learn from your past.
Maybe read my first comment on here? Free is around 10 mails per day, monthly subscription 20 mails per day, yearly subscription 60 mails per day.
Most of us bloggers likely don't privately mail all that much and won't have noticed when the limits started.
'Spect the scammers noticed in the first hour and many new members will be scammers doing their cycle of getting kicked off and then re-joining with a different-ish profile. Once there was such a restrictive limit on unpaid membership, it's maybe not worth their while creating new profiles all the time. See?
This is a statement that says, "You can't shame me, I'm proud that I can vote to let people just like my grandparents drown."
Except many of them haven't got, and won't get to be grandparents, or even adults for that matter.
I can see it's bluff and bluster, but Catholic immigrant to Catholic immigrant, we both know know the state of your selfish, petty, corrupt soul don't we?
You just pretended you didn't read the bit about the elderly man watching his wife die. I know that.
I know there's redemption in there, it's simply a matter of choice.
I'm pretty damned sure I've sent way more that 8-12 PM's in a 24 hour period sometime in the last 14-ish years that I've been a member of this site.
I'm pretty damned sure I've sent way more than 20 PM's in a day which is now the limit for a monthly subscription.
The amount of messages a free member can send has most definitely changed.
The new membership is likely down because with such restrictions on sending likes and mails, this site is a considerably less viable option for scammers.
TKSpectre is correct in his assumption that the drop in spam mail he's receiving is likely a function of the new restrictions placed on non-paying members.
So, you are using the word Marxism as if it's synonymous with social responsibility for dramatic effect without understanding either.
Two stories from the Zeebrugge disaster have always remained with me. In the first, an elderly man is in the icy water holding up his disabled wife. They are trapped in the up-turned hull, but some people have found ledges to sit on out of the water. The elderly man calls up to some young men and begs they let his wife sit up there out of the briny deep. One young man shouts down, "Sorry mate, there's no room up here."
The elderly man watched as his wife died in his arms from hypothermia.
The second story is about a man who came to be known in our culture as The Bridge: "As the sea rushed into the ferry's cafeteria, Andrew stretched his 6ft 3in body over a gulf of water so that his wife Eleanor and daughter Janice could crawl over him to safety. Then, seeing a group of terrified survivors standing behind his family, with no other hope of escape, he arched his back and took their weight as well."
Andrew Parker saved twenty lives that day.
Neither of these stories have anything to do with Marxist political philosophy as far as I can tell, but one of them is about doing the right thing whilst the other is about pulling up the rope ladder behind you.
From a second generation immigrant to a third, I know which one you are.
It's looking less and less likely that any of the cases eligible for a jail sentence will go to court before the election. The Georgia RICO election interference case is delayed with humming and haring over when Fani kissed Nate, the Documents case is delayed by Judge Cannon trying to release enough classified information to get people killed and the DC election conspiracy case is being delayed by the Supreme Court who have too many more important things to do before even beginning to look at whether Trump could execute them all with impunity if they say the wrong thing about him.
That leaves the 'hush money' case which is what? A level E felony case? And as such, is unlikely to be subject to a prison sentence.
Not that it would matter because Trump could legally lead the country from his jail cell via a 10 minute call every day. That's possibly more work than he did many, many days the last time around anyway.
As for Nikki Hayley, you're still shoving your women, especially your black women into the gutter with her. She's fundamentally absolutist with respect to life beginning at conception with no abortion exceptions, not for rape, not for a child subjected to incest, not to save the life of a woman dying in screaming agony while her husband and children pray for it to be feckin' over.
Ach y fi, Sleepy Joe suddenly doesn't appear as old, or somnambulant as you.
Trump has been adjudicated liable for rape, defamation twice and persistent financial fraud.
He is an adjudicated insurrectionist because the Supreme Court didn't challenge that part of the Supreme Court of Colorado's ruling. The Supreme Court ruled on the mechanism of how an insurrectionist could be disqualified from office at the federal level.
Trump has not yet been found guilty in the documents case. the RICO case in Georgia, or any of the four pending trials against him.
Is that really the issue with respect to ultra-processed foods, the subject of your blog?
Assuming all food is processed unless you nibble it off the plant unwashed, lick up insects, or sink your choppers into a fish raw and wriggling, etc., it strikes me that if you can't tell the difference between an ultra-processed food item and a processed one, you have entirely missed the premise of your own blog.
I don't use private mail a lot these days, but the other day I was feeling a bit sociable.
When I tried to reply to one person, I got a notice saying I had reached my private mail limit for the day and would I like to join as a premium member?
I'd mailed two people a total of 12 times within the last 24 hours and found I couldn't mail for another 9 hours. I'm guessing that translates to unpaying members now having 8-10 free mails to send per day.
Now imagine I'd been chatting to both of those people with a romantic intent and I didn't want either to know about the other, like I'm some low down dirty dawg of a lothario.
And imagine both people I was stringing along talking to knew about the mail limit.
Then imagine I'd reached my mailing limit after five mails to each of my romantic interests. They're both going to want to know where the other five mails went, right?
Enter the get out of poop free card that is premium membership.
For a monthly fee of $9 I can enjoy 20 free mails, 20 free likes, an ad free dating experience and a premium member badge on my profile indicating I'm unlikely to be a conventional scammer. I'm still a dirt bag who's scamming two romantic interests out of informed choice, or informed consent, mind.
The 20 mails a day is very low for a monthly subscription, but there are no worries about forgetting to pay: the only two ways I'll be able to cancel my subscription and payments is by asking CS nicely to cancel themselves from taking money out of my account, or by upgrading to a yearly subscription.
My guess is that upgrades are fairly instant, but cancellations take enough time for admin to legally suck another monthly payment out of my account before managing the time consuming business of clicking on a thing, or two. One thing's for certain, I'm not going to be able to cancel my subscription through my bank because of the kind of subscription I agreed to.
Now imagine 20 mails and likes per day still gets me in the poop. I might upgrade to a yearly subscription of 60 mails and likes a day at a cost of $79, a snip at 29% less than monthly subscriptions for sooo much more.
Either way, I might forget I'd subscribed monthly, or yearly leaving CS to help itself out of my account forevermore, especially if I've forgotten which dating sites I joined and under which names.
It also explains why the ads are bleeding through several of my adblockers and are so animated they sometimes freeze my screen. CS wants to piss me off enough to pay them to not piss me off, as well as paying them not to dump me in poop.
If you don't consume animal products, that starkly cadaver-tasting gelatine capsule repeating on you may be the difference between keeping an antibiotic down, or not.
I've just spent a week transferring antibiotic powder into an ultra-processed wood pulp capsule for that very reason.
As an off topic aside, how refined the cadaver is, isn't really the primary factor in ethical, or religious objections to killing animals.
If the protein bars you're scoffing are a mixture of dates and nuts dusted in raw cacao, it won't count as ultra-processed.
If your protein bar consists of puffed white rice and a few seeds held together with a refined sugar and fructose syrup gloop then it will count as ultra-processed.
The number of times a customer has arrived and said, "I've cut this already to make it easier for you..." and then handed me something that looked like it had been chewed by their dog.
