When Kanye said this about Hitler, they ripped him apart. In case you didn’t already have enough evidence of the double standard.

Not trolling here, I was just digging deeper on this. The rate of spontaneous abortion/miscarriage in the general population is already 10-15%. This study shows that 53 out of 458 cases ended with a miscarriage, that’s 11.6%, so this AE doesn’t seem egregious (although a very sad statistic regardless). Also, in the general population “adverse pregnancy events” occur in over half (~55%) of all pregnancies. This shows 248/458 adverse events, which is 54.1%. Again, I’m not trying to troll here, but this might not be the smoking gun that we hoped, it is maybe more of a reflection of how complicated pregnancy is in general and how sad the outcomes can be. The adverse events in this report might be more severe? Or I might be missing something else in general.

That being said, I would love to open the discussion of where I might be wrong as this was after just 20min or so of research.

Not only are we in the storm, but this is evidence of it. What is a storm characterized by? Chaos. How far can you see in a storm? If the storm is bad enough, nothing. Is it easy to communicate in a storm? Can a storm kill you? How long does it take to rebuild after a storm?

The storm analogy might go deeper than we know…

This just means it goes to a special election. Many voters probably knew and voted for him anyways because they didn’t want to vote for the opponent, a commie, which seems like a silver lining to me (maybe not to any accelerationists here).

Not here to doom, but this notion that “denying the offer is indisputably against the interest of the shareholders” is short sighted. It would be very easy to make the case that the this sort of turnover in the company could tank the stock against the best interests of the shareholders. Could be, could not be, do we really think the SEC would do anything?

Pretty sure somebody predicted that this was Trump’s opinion. Post was from a day or two ago (?). Post said something along the lines of “trump said republicans won’t vote, but he never said they shouldn’t”.

Just pointing this out, not sure who it was, but good insight pede

“Democrats commuted fraud against themselves”?

We now go live to Bernie in one of his 3 houses

When you open your hands, your wrist muscles flex more, making your wrist slightly larger than with a closed fist (try it). If you want a little more space in your handcuffs, you open up your hands as big as possible, so then when you relax into a more fist-like position you have some wiggle room (or enough room to slip out of the handcuffs if that’s your plan). I would guess most cops know this.

Edit: I’m not saying this is definitive, but I think it passes Occam's Razor when it comes to the open hands.

Came here to say this^. In terms of face value, McConnell holds the power position and has no reason to initiate a truce. This evidences that Trump is the one that truly holds more power, which also means there is much more behind the scenes going on.

I oversimplified, people were being paid to hold/store the oil by the people that had the oil. The people that had the oil were able to profit more by holding the oil short term (and incurring an expense in storing it) and selling it once the market came back. So, no people were not paying others to take their oil, that would be silly, but they were paying others to store it.

Except people were getting paid to hold oil when prices went negative...

Ship’s name was “MT LORI” according to Daily Mail https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9403275/Israeli-cargo-ship-hit-Iranian-missile-Arabian-Sea.html

False flag? MT LORI = Empty Lorry (Lorry is the British word for truck). They are attacking an empty truck, no harm caused but reason for retaliation. False flag.

Do we have any time period to compare to? Sauce?

Anecdote: Many times small first-offense misdemeanor charges against minors (like minor in possession of alcohol, small shoplifting, etc.) get sealed so stupid teenagers don’t have a record that screws up their life when they have one slip up (I know lots of people this happened to).

If we consider that any given age has roughly 4 million people in it, and we assume there’s 6-8years of a persons life where we might chalk up minor crimes to remediable stupidity (13-19yo?) then that means there were 40+ million people that were in this age group at some point in the last 4 years. So, let’s call it 200,000 sealed cases would be ~5% of those 40 million. Might be a little too much, but I think it could easily be in that 5% range. Think about 20 teenagers you know... might 1 of them have caught a case for boozing or similar?

Obv this is just bar napkin math with some rough assumptions, but just trying to put this into perspective.
