There’s no better way to get Tesla sales up than to have dealerships patrolled by white supremacists. This is priceless. What’s next, a free Klan hood with purchase?

Purdue Pharmaceuticals paid off the FDA to allow a very addictive form of opioid into mainstream medical use. They then used pharma reps to push it on patients, falsely citing low addiction. This caused a massive addiction epidemic in the US. Once all of this came to light, doctors stopped overprescribing the opioids, and many people turned to the streets.

There’s a Netflix series called “Painkiller” that’s based on the Sackler family, who controls Purdue Pharma and is responsible for all of this.

That’s the exact opposite of addressing the fentanyl crisis that Trump is supposedly so concerned about.

They’re right. I’m not defending the ban, but it is political. This is why MAGA elected Trump.

ICE is following Trump’s orders, which are an unconstitutional violation of the Fifth Amendment. When the Alien Enemies Act was used during WWII, even the Nazis had due process before being deported.

Hyperfocus at work. Lol

I used meds for a few years, but I felt like I was borrowing productivity from later in the day. After a while, I only felt capable at work, and was drained in the evenings and on the weekends. They are really helpful if you can find a good balance. I hope it works well for you!

I misunderstood “poor storage” as a temperature. Sure, if you don’t seal the container and an abundance of moisture is able to enter, that could cause spoilage. So if OP doesn’t keep their honey in a bucket in the basement they should be fine.

That’s an old wives’ tale. Honey never spoils, it crystallizes. All you need to do is heat it to liquify. 3000 year old honey was found in an Egyptian tomb, and was still edible.

DEI does not influence hiring or firing. The right intentionally conflates DEI, which is creating an inclusive work environment, with affirmative action. The latter was a set of policies that required special consideration for marginalized groups when hiring, and was repealed by SCOTUS in 2023.

As a former corporate manager, I can say first hand that DEI has been a focus in respectable institutions for much longer than the term has existed. The best way to stagnate your business is to hire a bunch of like-minded people and make them all think and act alike.

It’s both.

He replaced Brown with Caine, a man who was quoted as saying, “I will kill for you.” Caine also wore a MAGA hat in uniform, which is against military regulations, showing he puts Trump over his oath.

Same. Sports and pop culture now that I’m older.

A Dan, a clan, a canal, Canada.

And in Ohio, boneless wings can have bones.

It shouldn’t. The DRM is on the Amazon book file format. The books I get from my library are usually epub format.

The FTC and FCC are two of the independent agencies that Trump has seized control over with his executive order. Control of the media is essential to fascism.

Authors receive 25% of the ebook sale to a library in the US. Frequent lends will also influence future purchases made by the library.

Libraries in Canada and the UK pay royalties for each lend.

Check if it’s available on your library website first, for the sake of the author.

I only remember seeing the original Cat in the Hat. I agree that movie is better off forgotten.

I learned about it in The Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum in Springfield, Massachusetts. Definitely worth the stop if you’re a fan.

I’m going to compulsively share my favorite Dr. Seuss fact in hopes that some of you want to share it with others.

His full name was Theodore Seuss Geisel. The correct (Germanic) pronunciation of his middle name is “Soyce.” When he was choosing his pseudonym, he specifically selected Seuss because it rhymes with rejoice.

Say it right. Be that guy. Do it for Dr. Seuss.

Great analogy.

That wall hits like sleep deprivation or dehydration, just a clueless and careless fog that falls over me after running for too long on anxiety.
