I thought it was cops who got targeted by water bottle wielding protesters last year.

Anyway I was warning Cuthbert based on story where a man who had filled his vehicle with water containers was killed by a drone strike. He was presumed to be a terrorist alledgely transporting weapons. Joe Biden stands by his decision. I guess Biden can sniff out terrorists like he can sniff out little kids' hair.

Did you just find out that drones kill innocent people? Ignorance and stupidity can be two sides of the same coin I suppose.

If you took breaks, then that means you had internal motivation to do that. I think my situation was different in that I didn't want to take break, but felt forced to by external circumstances.

So my own temp ban made sense to me at the time. There was a lot more going on here then and I was also a moderator. MB was a huge part of my online life and I was experiencing that special kind of procrastination where I KNEW I should be writing on my thesis, but found it hard to force myself to do it. Instead I procrastinated on the forums while being horribly aware that the hours, days and weeks were ticking ever closer to my deadline.

I'm just glad that's over with.
