I think it means you are from Caprica, one of the 12 Colonies.

Jimbone Tallshanks posted:Isn't jail specifically where you're held to await arraignment and then possibly bailed out until trial? Jimbone Tallshanks posted:No I'm asking because I don't know if it's true or just something people say to be pedantic and the difference is capricious and/or arbitrary Kinda, but not exactly. Jail is for shorter term stuff and usually managed by the local authorities, typically at either the city or county level depending on the size of the area. It’s not strictly for people waiting arraignment who couldn’t make bail, but also people doing short sentences (30 days or a few months sort of things, typically under a year or so) will stay in the local jail rather than being sent away to prison. Prison is for longer term sentences, and usually managed at the state or federal level (Plus the private managed ones for what amounts to modern slave labor  ). You normally don’t get sent to prison before/during the trial barring something unusual, so it’s overwhelmingly people who were convicted/took deals and are just serving their time.Keep in mind, you’ll sometimes hear people use “jail” interchangeably, as I believe the clear difference between the two is something of an American colloquialism, and one that’s really only developed/defined relatively recently in language terms. fartknocker fucked around with this message at 01:02 on May 3, 2024 |

I think there might be another level: county - so you got short term jail - then county lockup - then long term prison.

I tried kava today for the first time cause "kava bars" are a thing now apparently? It's supposed to make you feel "relaxed and euphoric" in a non-alcoholic way. I thiiiiiink it may have had some small relaxing effect? It's hard to say. It didn't make me feel bad anyway. It does taste like drinking grass clippings and it made my tongue go a little numb. Overall a fairly "meh" experience
