Thanks! It's "just" a kidney stone but it feels like the end of the world. It's the first thing that has ever made me revise my pain scale.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks! Merry Christmas.
It was probably a picture of Barron wearing a shirt and the shirt was just yuge.
I'm not so sure how good mine is going to be this year, but hopefully everyone else has a great and memorable one.
Renal colic attacks will ensure that I'll be on my ass one way or another it seems. Hope you get the rest you need.
Pulling out of the WHO would be insane...in the best way possible.
Fuck that tyrannical bullshit.
There are absolutely questions to be had about this for sure.
There's a graph that shows that coexisting with few is easy, but coexisting with many is impossible.
It's a good graph.
Which wasn't an insurrection. Don't out yourself that readily.
They can do that, yes. If you are important enough to them, and they can get judges to sign off on it.
It cannot be allowed to happen.
Nor can apathy to legalizing it, which is even worse and anyone should understand this.
There is no check or balance once it's legalized. It is already nearly impossible to repeal this sort of thing.
Once that door is built, it's going to keep being opened.
You stopped this from being a friendly conversation from the jump. Downvoting instantly when you could have simply argued a point ("parallel construction") and then understood where I'm coming from (we can't become so apathetic to their garbage that they actually legalize it) was pretty lame.
Apologies if I am overreacting, I probably am. My patience is thin as I am having my first kidney stone and it is a truly awful experience.
Healthcare is such a complex and multifaceted issue.
Big Pharma has no interest in cures, but government regulations often go too far for promising treatments but not far enough for truly dangerous or new treatments.
Do we put it in the hands of government, or private sector?
One thing we need to do is demand cures, not just treatments-in-perpetuity. We also need to prosecute those who would do harm.
There is also a government grant conflict of interest for research and studies, but if the government has no control then the private companies will stick to their treatment as a subscription philosophy.
Difficult questions all spiraling out of control due to a lack of accountability. An honest government would be coming out against vaccinations. An honest government would never give immunity for bad practice in medicine either.
I'm fine with CEOs making bank, but some of them get totally absurd.
For any gamers out there, Bobby Kotick was basically paid a small country's GDP.
I feel bad for the people who are sent to "serve their country" by fighting for an entirely different country.
Truly awful.
Separate issue.
The chances of you breaking a federal law is just about 100% at some point or other due to how bloated the laws have gotten.
Have you gone to prison for it?
Doubtful.
Legalizing it is a red line, period. The snark about how "it doesn't stop them from spying" is true, but it makes it much more difficult to actually prosecute.
Which is why I said it stops them in courts, and not that it stops them from spying to begin with.
To be clear, we need to get the reins on this -- on said "easy warrants", and on spying. But the way to get reins on it is not to act apathetic to them spying regardless while they attempt to legalize it. The first step is to aggressively oppose that legalization. It is always harder to repeal.
No, my answer is objectively correct.
They are spying on us, but they can't do anything about it because it's illegal to do so.
They can't admit any evidence into court, but they absolutely would be able to if you allowed them to legalize it.
Get over yourself. It's just because you don't like the answer. Because you didn't grasp the distinction between what they can do with this information if it is legalized.
Your inability to grasp that distinction is not my problem.
But they cannot admit it into court, and that's what protects most people.
Frankly I don't give a fuck if you don't like the answer, the fact is that because it is inadmissible is what has stopped them and that's why legalizing it is a red line.
Where legality stopped them is in court.
Apparently some ordinances forbid it in Michigan, although I do not know which municipalities. Probably Detroit-adjacent areas. Just what I've been told when advising this.
Betrayal is too grave to forgive.
Probably one book, but usually the word count is referred to as the trilogy.
188K words is still too many for a bill.
I don't think that it's nearly 1.1 billion words, but I accept your exaggeration and agree.
...More boolets!

The first use case was specifically created for use as a vaccination for prostate cancer.
It's insane. It's also totally insane that the people who inject this garbage can look at someone carted away during an adverse event and then still give the next person a shot.
I do not have it in me. Even if I had a good belief that I was helping people, watching someone potentially die in front of me would make me harbor serious doubts and I'd walk away.
