Sticks48 comments on Feb 10, 2019:

The federal governments conviction rate as a whole is over 95%. The feds don't take things to trial unless they know they are going to win. This isn't like your local elected officials who go to trial with flimsy evidence, because of public pressure or political pressure, because of outrage or just needing numbers to impress voters.

Sticks48 comments on Feb 10, 2019:

I saw a few of those in a local store. I had not seen or heard of jackfruit. They were fucking huge. My thought was once you open it, do you have to eat the whole thing? That would not be possible.

Sticks48 comments on Feb 10, 2019:

Some of them will drop out because they won't have the money. Most big donors will wait till the herd thins out before donating very much if any at all. Carter, Clinton, and Obama all came out of nowhere. Those other established, more well known Democrat nominees all lost. You are taking the right approach, l believe.

Music or no music during sex?

Sticks48 comments on Feb 9, 2019:

I prefer quiet. 1. As a musician it can be distracting, as that part of my brain will want to go there instead of where it needs to be. 2. I was born ambidextrous. I have read ambi people bounce back and forth from the right brain to the left brain all the time, which explains why I struggled to focus in school and concentrate at other times in my life. Combine the two, and you can see where music during sex could be a problem.
