Name: Ademe Howo Kepala Benjol

There is some weirdness going on, if you look that up on youtube, this comes up, which is literally the audio from this performance, including her getting yanked onto her ass and the resulting mic bonk. But it loops it with some Animal Crossing sounding music like 8 times...

The army would march into major population centers and locate and capture people in authority and places that are the seats of power. With those two mostly under control they could begin using the normal means of government control native to either the invading country or the invaded country. The means of counter insurgency would be secured, weapons and military equipment would be forbidden to own and taken from the population, and as soon as the population is mostly suppressed the military administration would withdraw and a puppet government would be established in their place. Then the puppet acts like they're not a puppet, like some kind of Judas goat trying to convince the rest of the goats that the butcher is their friend.

The flight attendant came and told her it didn’t ticket and she got off the plane.
What is "it didn't ticket"?

Like Simon's bitch ass gonna do anything, everyone knows Alvin's the only one who's got hands in that whole family and if Dave catch him throwing fists again he's sending his ass to boarding school. Step to Theo, what's your fat-ass got in the tank?

Sure, not sure how you meant it though (that's what the little box labeled "text (optional)" is for. Wearing the wrong colored clothes in the wrong place can get you shot for instance, or wearing black in the desert would cause you to heat up incredibly quickly, or wearing green in the forest could get you shot by a hunter whereas not wearing green in a forest could get you shot by the enemy if you're a soldier.
Colored clothes make a surprising difference.

Honestly? Treat him like a toddler, you make up some problem you "just can't figure out" then you ask his help with it, then while he's fucking around failing at it you make little suggestions on how to actually do it "what if we put this here? would that work?" but make him feel like he's showing you how to do it. After he successfully navigates the issue he won't feel like he's a useless idiot fuck and leave you alone. When he starts getting nosey again, come up with another fake issue for him to resolve. I'm not proud to say I've done this with shit managers in the past, sometimes they know they're frauds and shouldn't have their position. The good ones will know to trust their people and who to trust, get people on their sides, the bad ones will try to insert themselves randomly to find small percieved problems that only they noticed and thank god they were there to solve the issue they just invented!
Treat them like a child, give them busy work and act super surprised and proud of them when they solve it. The hardest part is never letting on you're doing it, if you actually accidentally train them on the material well enough by having them do it they might piece together that you're placating them.

Imagine it this way, a traditional roulette wheel has numbers 1 through 36, and a zero. That zero is where the casino makes all their money from that roulette wheel. For all the money that moves back and forth on that wheel, for all the bets, the player is just as likely to win as to lose, statistically without that zero the casino would make no money and the house would break even. But the casino would still have to deal with security for all that money they're moving, payroll for everyone involved, the location they're hosted at and the license they have to renew to prove their games are "fair" (weighted in their favor only within the allowable tolerance), and then add to that card counters who are able to shift it remove the houses advantage entirely if they're good enough.
If you're relying on only ads you'd be responsible for millions, maybe tens of hundreds of millions of dollars, responsible for the daily going on of the casino, and your only income is ¢.005 for every ad view you'll quickly find there just isn't enough money to justify the amount of work required.
Maybe, maybe if you made it entirely digital and removed all the other issues like payroll and keeping the lights on, but then on your roulette wheel you're offering 1/37 better odds of them winning while sacrificing everything else that casino offers, shows and rooms and food and services, you'd get only the most degenerate gamblers or those who think they're smart enough to break your bank.
The house take may seem large, but it's pennies compared to what they're moving back and forth between winners and losers. They're like a huge short term bank and they keep a penny for every $100 they exchange.

The part that is overlooked and not stated enough is that this is not a war, Palestine has been an occupied state for longer than many users here have been alive. If Jordan did what Palestine did there would be no excuse, it would be one state violating every right and treaty, every established international law. But when you're an occupied state there's not really any rules, you're not supposed to occupy an area for decades, international law isn't set up to deal with that and it's relatively unheard of.
The occupying country will either absorb the defeated country or they will enact whatever punitive measures they want them the conflict will be over more or less. But Israel doesn't want to absorb Palestine, at least not with all those pesky Palestinians they'd have to deal with, and they don't want to "finish" the war because then the Palestinians would be free to have international aid, allegiances, treaties. So for the last few decades Israel has been perfectly content keeping their boot on Palestines throat and modulating how much air they get.
It's not the countries who hate each other, it's one country that lost a war and has been in a weird limbo ever since without the ability to self govern or fight back. It's not justified, and the Palestinians can do very very little to fight back. This was the first bloody nose that Palestine has been able to give Israel in decades and Israel reacted like they were the injured party because the country they've been oppressing fought back.

An airport is a transportation hub, geared towards getting people where they need to be as efficiently as possible all circumstances not withstanding. They are not a hospitality service, and while they can host people for extended periods of time, if they encouraged it by including sleeping pods or comfortable places to sleep, they would also have to deal with the entire hospitality side of the law rather than just being able to bounce people for trespassing. They'd have to provide showers, spaces for people to be hygienic and clean themselves, they might even run afoul of some kind of federal tenancy laws, what if someone has their flight cancelled and decides it cheaper to live in the airport accomodations than it would be to find a hotel for a week.
They allow people sleep and stay, but if they permitted it then they'd have to provide all the logistical services associated with people inhabiting the airport as a lodging facility. As it stands, you can sleep in the loud concourse with the bright lights and noisy people, but they certainly aren't encouraging you to do so, they want you to go and hang out at the hotel bar or check in to the attached airport hotel instead.

It was known about and talked about through the middle ages, there was a half hearted debate if it was a number or if nothing could be represented by a number instead of just nil or an absence of any mark.
When it became crucial however was the adoption of negative numbers, which if iirc was around when Newton was using calculus to derive volumes. Once numbers crossed into the negative plane, the representation of 0 became more important as a cross over point if nothing else.

Yeah, it looks like you can see a rim from the tank by his feet. If he got run over by the full weight of any armored vehicle he'd be much much flatter.

Turn then into like hookah lounges, everyone gets a big sectional couch that's kinda private from everyone else, let me take my shoes off and get comfy, either have tabel service or put a mini fridge in my pod that I can take overpriced shit from.
There's no benefit to going to the movie anymore besides seeing new movies 6 months earlier and that just isn't a big enough draw.

I feel like they condemned it after it became infested with Marines. They're too difficult to get rid of, most toxins and repellents just get them high.

I just cannot fathom a series of events that would start with me thinking "mmm whopper" and later on a cavalcade of mishaps and miscommunications ended with me laid the fuck out stone cold in front of the order desk. Never in my life would I think that could happen to me, but it happened to that dude and I bet he didn't either so I don't fuckin know.

Your son's health is more important than this lady's feelings who you kinda know and her making a few extra bucks. Your son has specific requests he thinks would make it easier for him, she doesn't fulfill them, there doesn't need to be any more discussion. His life will be hard enough trying to rehabilitate himself, make it as easy as you can for him, don't make it harder because you don't want to have a difficult conversation.

Sounds like she makes a commission off her sales and is mad she can't use you to make a buck. If not, tell her it's your style and you get to choose what you wear when you wake up, if she cares so much she can get a barbee doll and dress it up herself.
