I like sesame sticks and nuts (but allergies can be an issue). Also wasabi peas.

I’ll just throw this into the mix: the so-called “wisdom of crowds”. I’m not sure if it really applies to juries. But I think the idea that a group of people will be smarter and less biased (or their biases will cancel each other out) is a common notion. It also dilutes the feeling of individual responsibility to some degree.

After defeating the Balrog in the mines of Moria, Jesus comes back as Buddy Christ.

Yeah, I always glove up when I clean out the p-traps under the sinks. The smell is the worst part.

It takes different forms, but one horrifying example is smuggling people in from poverty-stricken countries and forcing them to be sex slaves. People with no resources that have very little chance of rescue.

Became an atheist and quit going to church. After decades of being very involved in church. My experience wasn’t nearly as difficult or traumatic as it is for many who go through this. But it still sucked. I pissed off some friends and family members. And some folks I really liked froze me out, which is not fun. Atheist friends were supportive, which was a big help.
