They used to be called brothel laws. They're usually written as a limit to how many adults who aren't related can share an address.

I had the same thought. Albeit less vividly pictured.

In this case, "you already are" feels more natural than "you are already." I think that might be part of why the contraction feels weird? I sure can't explain why to someone who doesn't have the same feeling.

Canadian here.

I said "sorry" (I have no idea why)

I may have a guess for you.

I also need to know why "All Lives Matter" is such a big deal when you're using it in a way that negates marginalizing any group?

Except it's not used that way. Imagine if there was a group that, every time anyone said "remember 9/11" responded with "remember all buildings." The message is "the problems that you face and are trying to bring specific attention to aren't worthy of attention"

Oh, that is funny. Are the studs 7'9" so a board below and above them are 8' total?

It's not. It's 1.5" x 3.5". I don't know the history and wasn't able to find it in a quick search, but lumber sizes are usually a half inch less than the name would imply.

That only applies to the thickness and width, though. The length of a board should be as described (e.g. a "two by four by eight" would be eight feet long, but have a cross section of 1.5 by 3.5 inches)

I've been using keepass for years. I use syncthing to keep the copy of the db on my phone and laptop and backup synced.

In case you missed the second image on the original post, that text is in this pattern in glow in the dark thread

Reddit had a community called something like 3dprintmything where you could post what you were looking for and get bids from folks who could get it to you. I dunno if we have anything like that here.

My family had a copy of that letter in the late 80s/early 90s except it was a Mrs. Fields recipe. I knew exactly what it would be from your comment
