The idea that someone would have a large number of children to avoid working seems crazy. Raising a large number of children as a single parent is much more "work" than a full-time job.

That works great where there is no snow. Otherwise, the bike lanes get packed with snow and become unusable due to a lack of appropriate equipment to plow them.

Such big selloffs may have been as much a cause as the tarrifs on the stock price declines.

Reorganizing agencies to flatten the org chart may not be crazy, but the funding and staffing cuts are so deep as to cripple all of them.

My brother and I used to throw Jarts at each other onthe front lawn, overhand. We survived only because of our terrible aim.

Congress has clearly been cultified. It's all up to the Supreme Court at this point. If they continue to allow all this, we are screwed. Anyone personally at risk from all this, and who have the means and opportunity, should be looking for a way to GTFO to a more friendly country ASAP.

Even if we wanted to prevent autism, a prerequisite is knowing the cause(s), and he is clearly barking up the wrong trees on that front. He may as well be looking into "evil spirits" and suggest blood-letting as a preventative.

Not to defend RFK, who is clearly a lunatic, but lead poisoning is not an infectious disease and there are definitely preventive measures that we can take. This one quote is a poorly selected argument of the many good ones.

Because we are contiuing to pay El Salvador for his indefinite detention and, probably, no one from the Trump Administration has asked for his release to US custody.

When I go to www.federalregister.gov/documents/20..., there is a drop-down for me to pick what my comment is about? Any recommendation as to which I should pick?

When do we move from "do not comply in advance" to silence regarding anything political? It may already be too late.

Maybe a tax audit. Maybe your employer is told that you are considered an enemy of the state and that there will be consequences for the company if they continue to employ you. Maybe your passport is invalidated (combined with the proposed voting restrictions, that could prevent you from voting).

How long until your Facebook posts critical of the Administration get you on a list? What about email messages? What about texts? What if you're already on a list for any of those reasons? ts and providing them to the government. When do the consequences of being on a list escalate?

I bought my current house about 6 years ago and it has granite countertops but I've never done anything other than clean it with a standard kitchen antiseptic cleanser. How often do you seal and polish yours? Do you use a special granite cleaner?
