So, we're currently running a 99 stock training match for a few amiibo. We're currently all gathered around the monitor cheering on an inkling. I'm okay with this

Okay, okay, I kid. I like vim, but I couldn't help it!

`[ESC]:wq` quits. `sudo pacman -Rs vim` removes it on Arch and Manjaro.

Want a chrom amiibo? Well, Arlington Walmart has you covered!

Incineroar looks so pissed with Mario here, and honestly, I can't say I blame him

Blood, medical stuff 

Unfortunately, staring hormones, it's something I'm going to have to get used to. Granted right now, the only hormone I'm likely to be starting is levothyroxin...

Blood, medical stuff 

I hate having blood drawn. Needles are something I don't like. Like, if I know it's not going in my body, I'm fine, but if it's going in me, I don't like it. I always look away when needles are getting stuck in me. I don't like it

Come to think of it, I wonder if part of the shipping cost is normally subsumed into the cost of the flag. So, like, part of the $30 the flags normally cost is subsidizing shipping, but, since they're currently free, they need you to pay for the full shipping cost? It still doesn't explain why shipping is $31, but it might explain why it might be higher than if the flags weren't free (which I don't know if it is or not)

For further proof of what I'm saying, here's the checkout screen. $30.95 for standard shipping, which they say is ~18-24 days. Note, same zip code as I put for the ship to on the USPS website. 76010. So, where are you and what service are you using? Because it would seem you're not in Seattle using USPS.

And, in case you're curious about my $21 two-day shipping claim, here's the rates from the USPS website. 30 lbs package shipped from Seattle, WA to Arlington, TX is $21.10 for Priority Mail 2-Day Large Flat Rate. So, yeah. I'm pretty sure three flags wouldn't need that much. So, probably not using USPS, I would guess. I'm not sure where they're based, so USPS mightn't be an option for them.

And let me emphasize that, again, this is still about as much as one of the flags I'm looking at costs normally, but still.

And to clarify "as much as one costs normally", pridepalace.lgbt is giving away free pride flags. Normally, they're $30. But right now, they're free. But shipping costs $31 to get the three I want shipped to me, so I can afford it, unfortunately. I'm rather curious as to why shipping for those flags costs so much

I can't complain too much because this is still only as much as one of the flags costs normally, but where the hell are you located that it costs *$31* to ship three flags to somewhere in the US?! I mean, for fuck's sake, USPS can do *2 day shipping* w/ a large flat rate box for $21! Where are you shipping from and what service are you using that it'll take a few weeks and still cost that much?!

It was from my quantum mechanics notes. We'd talked about how everything experiences quantum effects, but the bigger the object, the shorter its wavelength, and the harder those effects become to observe
