I think it’s treated as a crisis because the economic charts always need to go up. Infinite growth requires people.

Women is probably fine to use when the ages can be gleaned from context. You can also make the noun non gendered and use female as a adjective like “female students” or “female patients”

Around half of us are just as (or more) upset about it as you. Our cold civil war has been getting warmer and life will get much worse for many of us. Just wanted to drop that reminder since some of us may end up as refugees trying to escape to saner countries.

All of the above plus: allergy covers for pillows and mattress, nasal irrigation with a neti pot or squeeze bottle (they sell the nasal rinse bottles and saline mix near the allergy medicine at the pharmacy), bathing your dog frequently . An allergist will have a really specific list of recommendations. Making your dog an outside dog is a terrible idea, it would be better to find a new home for your pup, rather than exposing them to the elements and leaving them outside all alone with no companionship

UK born British-Canadian citizen? So another far right anti-immigrant immigrant, coming to the US to stir up shit? When will we deport this clown and Phony Stark?

I guess that’s just the movies

Close. It’s just the non-billionaires

They’re up to # 1325. That is exhausting.

People get drunk with their kids at home all the time, not ideal but super common. Hallucinogens don’t make people catatonic or unable to interact. It’s just not that serious. I’m assuming the kids aren’t infants though. Infants need so much care so frequently that you have to be 100% on as much as possible. But I seriously doubt a nursing mother would do this (or at least trip and tell people about it)

Overall people need to lay off of parents unless they’re really harming their kids. I know people afraid to make their kids walk to school because the neighbors will call protective services. It’s ridiculous.

I don’t know if it’s the absolute worst I ever read but the parts I read were pretty bad. At some point I was like “What kinda Ayn Rand bullshit is this?” and quit reading. It turns out that he was a Ayn Rand make-super-improbable-and-convoluted-examples-in-my-fictional-fantasy-world-to-justify-terrible-political-views school of writing type guy.

Women know how messy and complicated women’s reproductive health can be. Even women lucky enough to never have any issues have comforted family and friends as they navigate pregnancies, miscarriages, cysts, tumors, endometriosis, sexual assault, etc. The male dinosaurs in the Senate are from an era when they would refuse to hear any of the messy details of any “woman’s problems “ or “female troubles “ , yet are happy to pop off at the mouth about abortion, birth control and Planned Parenthood. Fuck this smug, ignorant asshole.

Ah, that’s unfortunate. If you say you’re happy in your SUV then showing you places to live that aren’t your SUV isn’t very helpful. Having a discussion about whether you’re aware of and prepared for any risks associated with living in an SUV could be productive - either you’d learn something from social worker’s knowledge of many people living in vehicles or the social worker could be reassured that you’re not in a terrible situation.

Do be careful out there! I hope you’ve got enough cash in the bank or enough credit to recover if someone messes with your SUV.

Depends on the country and jurisdiction

Out of curiosity, what were her arguments?

If you have enough resources to weather any (literal or metaphorical) storms, then you might be OK but that is not the typical situation.

NOM!

From a spy craft and capabilities standpoint it’s an amazing attack. I’m skeptical that using the devices as bombs is more useful than using them for spying, but who knows? It is super fucked up that random people who happen to be near the targets could be hurt. But between that and the stuxnet attack, it’s safe to say that Israel is capable of crazy sophisticated attacks.

Thanks. I honestly haven’t been following it all closely. (I guess that’s obvious from my last comment). But why blow up a bunch of people in Lebanon?

So if I understand correctly, Israel managed to get a bunch of people in Hezbollah to use pagers and walkie talkies that contained bombs. But they have not been able to gather enough intelligence from control of those communication devices to find and rescue the remaining hostages? And if they weren’t able to catch useful information from those devices, why did the people holding those devices deserve to get blown up?

Yeah, was using “fried chicken” as an example just a coincidence? In theory, it could be just a random food that came to mind but given that Harris is Black and Indian, it’s seems super likely that there have been racist comments/memes/etc. about curry and fried chicken getting served at the White House that put these top of mind for Vance. IDK if it was deliberate dog whistling or the unintentional result of Vance steeping in blatant racism.

I’m going to contact my State Farm agent about this. Maybe Geico or Progressive are more adverse to Nazis.

Burke accused the court of denying him his religious rights, which included his belief in two genders, male and female. “This is a mockery of justice,” he told the judge.

He can exercise his “religious rights“ to be a bigot, but not at the school and not as a teacher.
