Then if we're going by deaths caused, gutting of US Aid is still waaaayyyy higher.

just found out the eight year old got dealt enough of a bad hand with teeth that we’re going to need thousands of dollars of orthodontic work already

thank goodness we have the money but it is absurd that the health care industry treats teeth as luxury bones that are almost entirely out of pocket

Do you think Zohran Mamdani is an Islamist? Affiliated with the muslim brotherhood?

If not, then guess what? I don't think Tuberville makes the same distinction you do.

I mean.

This depends on what you mean.

Do we disagree on "the best mechanism to tax a certain thing, how heavily should gambling be regulated" Then yes.

Do we disagree on "do trans people/Women/Jews/Black people/gay people/etc deserve to have the same human rights as everyone else?"

then no.

ok cool he's also still full of bullshit.

Walz did not go along with sports gambling.

It's in fact still illegal in his state.

This characterization is unfair.
Some of them are cheap knockoffs of Captain Planet villains.

(Non-dominant females in coyote packs get 'false pregnancies' rather than actually producing offspring, it's pretty fascinating!)

It's a lot more complicated than that, because you need those offspring to be able to succesfully survive, reproduce/etc.
'Fittest' can include communal species where only the two main members of a pack (like coyotes) will reproduce, while the others help raise children but do not have children.

Pay Utilitarienne using PayPal.Me Go to paypal.me/utilitarienne and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Hey, folks, one of my dearest friends who just lost their job recently owes the IRS $700. They feel really unsafe having their name/payment info online so i'm acting as their go-between; paypal is below, cashapp is $AdrienneLeigh. Put 'IRS' in the note and i will pass it to them directly.

It's funny to me that the more and more heavy censorship gets pushed onto the public the more I find myself being okay and supportive of people just drawing whatever the fuck they want.
I respect the freaks more than these withered old fucks, at least they've done more for me.

Watching a demo of how you can turn every NPC in your RPG town into somebody who says "That's right β€” you *are* the four LIGHT WARRIORS. You make a great point! The bridge to the main continent *does* need to be repaired, and you're just the person to do it."

Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI β€˜Expert Review’ Feature The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academicsβ€”without their consent.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.

State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

Constable Earstripe. I’m currently reading the β€žSaint of Steelβ€œ series by T. Kingfisher. It has romance, hilarity, absurdity, horror, and badgerfolk, a.k.a. gnoles!
I’m also working on a gouache brushset for Procreate, which this was made with. =)

A 3 panel cartoon by shencomix.com

Panel 1: a man with a massively oversized head, covered in bulging veins. He has a look of extreme concentration on his face. He says "I've taken a controversial new pill that accelerates my brain."

Panel 2: an image of a different person, very nondescript "so you're smart now?"

Panel 3: closeup of the person from panel 1. "I'm stupid FASTER."

Apparently it can "generate leverage"!

Whatever the fuck thats supposed to mean.

"create a ton of leverage?"
What?

What, like deepfakes of someone doing something terrible?

(Which would still be "generating bullshit")

Or do you use that word differently than most other humans?

US watching a movie where a vigilante’s entire family is wiped out: β€œOh yeah, time for fucking vengeance, this dude will never stop. Get them!”

US watching Iran pick a Supreme Leader who just had his entire family wiped out: β€œThis guy is plainly going to be reasonable and fold.”

Depends! The church I grew up in (UCC) sorta argued that faith, not acts is a distinction without a difference. One of their mottos is "to believe is to care, to care is to do"

Yes! John Brown and Jayhawks stole from slave owners.

If you thought it was OK to steal Black people from Africa and keep them as slaves? Then they thought it was OK to steal them from you and set them free, and to steal all your other stuff and keep it.

If you didn't like it? They took you out.
