If we are forming the logic of “god created” then it would make total sense use what god created like the sun, wind and the tides. I’m sure he would prefer that more than “BURN, PROFIT AND POLUTE YOU WOLRD BY BURNING THE REMNANTS OF MY OWN CREATIONS”.

..diverse approaches to the same obstacle. Early descriptions of what could be ADHD are described as far back as the late 1700s. It’s not a new phenomenon, just more easily recognized and treated rather than beating it out of the child! Kinda like there has always been left handed people.

I say it is…… caused by women hiccuping too much whilst pregnant!
But seriously, differences in neural pathways and ways thinking could be critical for the evolution of an intelligent species. The ability to hyper focus and look at solutions in entirely different ways leads to..

Like…. Who are they gonna get to do these studies? Because all the actual experts in this field have already done a fucking butt load of these studies!!! The data is already in. They drafting Wakefield in or something?

More good news: the removal of intelligence sharing is actually not impactful. All that intel is now provided by allied nations who simply took that on seamlessly without disruption. Source: colleague with clearance who worked in gov intelligence and counter terrorism.

Well yeah, I dare say that he never felt emboldened enough to let slip the facade and openly express that which was core to his upbringing and his family’s values. But now he is an Oligarch…

Yeah, c’mon. Elon has always been a douche but his plunge into Nazism is more recent and many people bought those cares without realizing just how bonkers and evil he is. Give them a break.

It means going aggressively into a check in a hockey game with “elbows up” to cause some damage! And there is lots of really good hockey in the UK - go watch!!

Yeah, potential for death and encephalitis should act as a bleak warning and a reminder to be vaccinated. And when they do recover, they get to enjoy a wrecked immune system for months or years leading to higher occurrences of all kinds of infections and illness.

Good lord! The actual number of licenses you purchase doesn’t actually reflect potential waste. For example, I may recommend a customer buy 2501 licenses vs 2300 because that means they get the next discount tier, a cheaper overall cost and room to grow.

Well, I am white, European and came to the US on an executive work visa 6+ years ago. So I am somewhat concerned but know that I am not the target of these EOs.

I’m in a safe category of immigrant, to be fair. But it certainly plays on my mind and I am so grateful to those who advocate for immigrants whose voice is often stifled by their status and insecurity.

So happy to have settled here in MN with my family after moving from another country. Made our home here and love the state - thanks to the leadership, we feel a little more insulated from the madness of the new administration.

I thought you spoke very well of him and it is clear that he was a well loved and respected member of the community. Sorry for your loss.

Or more likely, what Russia has one Vance! They put pressure on Trump to promote Vance into the VP position so that they have both under their thumb with even greater leverage.

Air travel is/was safe already. The only thing that I was ever concerned about was the lack of oversight and regulation that allowed doors to fly off mid flight! So they’re doing more of that necessary regulation and oversight, right?

I’ll admit that I didn’t have my stopwatch running but wasn’t far off, I suspect. Have seen extra extended on various occasions.

Wasn’t that extra time accounted for by the players down for a couple of minutes during injury time?

Ugh…. Well taken and good finish, to be fair! And Everton worked hard but was that actually offside in the build up? My biased POV would like to think so! YNWA!

I, for one, truly appreciate ICE and all they do. My Visa status and permission to remain in this country have nothing to do with this statement.

As a husband to an Afrikaner, speaking to her family, they think this is hilarious. South Africans are proud to live there and think that whilst the SA government is kinda fucked, better the devil you know!! South Africans had/have the commonwealth. If they wanted to leave, they would have.

Unrealistic because she lives in a society with food shortages, poor healthcare and, I am guessing a lack of pharmaceuticals typically needed for the average woman to pile on muscle. I’ve seen and I know many buff women - but their calorific requirements are much higher than average people.

Imagine if this feckless fool had actually had a conversation with these leaders and effectively collaborated with them!

Eh… I can appreciate the difficulties in casting someone right for the role and with the requisite acting chops AND the physical build to complete the look. Compromise is probably a given and would rather they sacrifice the somewhat unrealistic physique vs acting skills and character fit.

Building a house? Renovating of finishing that basement? That wood you use is likely coming from Canada… or would have come from Canada.

Looks like I’ll be reaching out to @homelinemn.org on Monday morning as she is still trying to force conditions and penalties on us. Thanks to great friends and great support services like Homeline!

My mum didn’t get me vaccinated against whooping cough back in the day because there were fears about the safety of the vaccine at the time. So I was one of those little kids who was hospitalized during the subsequent epidemic! The science is decades old FFS!!!!

OK, OK. The oligarchy made a deal with Trump - they’ll finance his campaign and encourage utter chaos and the dismantling of regulations through any and all means. Any criminality, including past actions will be pardoned once he steps down after 1 year and installs their proxy. J.D. Vance.

… life defining. My kid is way less likely to have the compulsive and addictive behaviors I had because she is medicated and doesn’t need to chase the dopamine highs that I did. I was miserable, my kiddo is so well balanced and happy and this is what matters.

I’d very much like not to spend $250 a month (with discounts) on my ADHD meds. But like…. I actually get shit done and my wife doesn’t want to kill me. I lived for decades without being medicated and it held me back! Appropriately prescribed, it is truly life changing. And for kids, it will be ….

I think it was Rumble in the Bronx where he broke his foot and then ended up painting the subsequent cast the same as his shoes and carried on filming scenes. Nails!!!

They did have confidence in the bureaucracy though, the cogs that had to turn and were powered by good people just trying to serve the country. It’s those dedicated, well meaning people that hindered the administrations worst intentions. And that is why they are trying to get rid of them now.

I have a friend who worked in 2 administrations as part the NSA. They were often asked to do illegal things, and carry out very dubious things. She had to distract and deviate around those requests whilst they watched all the climbers hustling for power around the periphery.

Wish I did know!!! I’d probably start with making algorithms illegal on social media as well as preventing that user data being used by political campaigns and parties.

Now there is the crux of the problem! Logic and facts can’t compete against emotions and how people feel. And they crave that constant validation from the right to reinforce those views and shield them from the realization that they have been duped.
