Walkable cities would help.

Uh huh.

This is correct. A shutdown is at least as much what they want as this shit budget.

There are calls for impeachment.

Uh huh.

I’m sure this opinion is based on a broad study of international historical trends in market regulation and not some guy once rattling off some examples that made it look that way.

This is an age old pile of horseshit. How every business built in undercutting incumbents pretends they are on the moral high ground. Anyone who buys this idea that you’re trying to do something good is a rube who deserves when you pull the rug.

I did oat bran and flax in my protein shake. With gum Arabic as well.

Don blame ketamine for Elon not knowing where he is. Ketamine is more effect than cause.

Adam don’t take other drugs without a doctor note on your meds. It can be very dangerous. Alan I agree the psychedelic ~ console is awesome. But be careful about interpretation. They also make you suggestible.

Tyramine is a product of aged protein that MAO (monoamine oxidase, which oxidizes chemicals called monoamines like serotonin or tyramine) helps digest. Inhibiting MAO can prevent breakdown and absorbing dietary tyramine can spike blood pressure. But a doctor decided the risk was worth the benefit.
comment in response to post
Re Adam’s drug, an MAOI, it does basically the same thing as SSRIs. It inhibits an enzyme that breaks down serotonin, whereas SSRIs inhibit reabsorption (reuptake) when it’s been release. End result, more serotonin signaling. MaOIs just also break down stuff in the gut, notably tyramine.

Big fan, happy you found what works for you. But be really careful how you speak about things like this. People can die if they hear what you say and resist lifesaving medical treatment. Your platform is too large to not be careful. I humbly request you confirm if you conflated, and retract nmw.
comment in response to post
Benzos are habit forming and indicated for short term use in anxiety or for active panic attacks. They can be dangerous and are primarily anxiety drugs. This is not to stigmatize, because they can also save lives. SSRIs, though, are primarily for depression and can be used indefinitely.
comment in response to post
Your power of positive thinking angle is FINE if it works for you. But if you can positive think your way to real improvement, that means you probably don’t need medication. The anxiety meds you might be worrying about and conflating are benzodiazepines like Xanax or klonopin.

They do have some risks in adolescents, Adam shouldn’t mix them with his drug but he also shouldn’t mix lots of stuff including hard cheese with his drug, and they’ll possibly make your dick not work. But they are safe in general, effective for lots of people, and fine to take forever.
comment in response to post
Like, in terms of safety over long term use, the drug Adam is taking is actually a fair bit riskier. (Not medical advice, it’s also risky to have uncontrolled depression and a doctor probably made the call right for him.) SSRIs are safe, effective for some people, and mostly fine indefinitely.

This is a simple thing to decide in your mind. To actually implement is complicated and hard.

You know it’s possible to be honestly wrong, even profoundly so?

Like in real life?

I own a home. I understand the rectal exam that comes with the purchase. All of that, however, is connected to the bank confirming you have the money and a right to the home. If they can slip the bad title into public record second part is covered. They wouldn’t check your credit for legit sale.
comment in response to post
Why would freezing your credit report stop me from mortgaging a property which is not on your credit report? The impediment is THEIR credit report, friend. I feel like you don’t understand what this article is saying, given that. It is clear that title fraud can be a costly & stressful to clean up.
comment in response to post
Why would an attempt on the title alert you? There isn’t a credit check or report for title transfer in my state at least. Unless you are applying for a mortgage to cover it, but that’s not your credit.
comment in response to post
Anything. Putting a bank between your property and seizure is a good idea. Also any property lacking a mortgage is an attractive target for title fraud. The bank there is not just your legal team, but is required to sign off on title changes, which they won’t. The rarity is part mortgage shielding.
comment in response to post
Getting sued is common.
comment in response to post
Not from that bank. But a bank.
comment in response to post
You should get some kind of small mortgage to protect yourself from title fraud and such. Better the bank’s lawyers than yours.

SO BEST TO AUTOMATE IT, WITH EXCEL 365 ARRAY FUNCTIONS. WORRY ABOUT THE EMOTIONAL COSTS OF THIS DECISION ONCE, THEN FOREVER HAVE IT MADE WITHOUT ALERTING YOU. From Microsoft 365. Your productivity cloud across work… AND LIFE!
comment in response to post
The filter function is extremely useful. You can just create ad hoc sorted lists of exactly what you need. Like, if you have a list of items in your home and wanted to filter them by any particular categories. Maybe categories that don’t ache at your soul to have to filter. But probably not.
comment in response to post
=Unique(Filter(Things!ThingName,Things!FucksGiven > 0)) That should pare down the list a bit. Might not help a ton, but better than nothing.

We get to see American states be on their own. And probably hamstrung by conservative legal shenanigans. Not great.
comment in response to post
I doubt it. The mechanism for that is well understood and I think kind of intrinsic to its effectiveness.The only way you could reduce it is more targeted agents (which I think they made in this case) but those don’t like eliminate it and they don’t work for some people and other sides remain.
comment in response to post
It’s not all the side effects but some of the serious health ones.
comment in response to post
Metabolic syndrome and associated cardiometabolic health cinditions, yeah. Those are the kill you over time side effects we accept because not taking them also kills you over time.
comment in response to post
You were confusing penicillin with anthrax, maybe. 😂
comment in response to post
Right now in conjunction. But if they seem effective you know they will be tried alone. And they definitely pretty well nuke the side effects of antipsychotics if nothing else.

Hank gave me that one. So thank him. :)

It was moldy agar, followed by a moldy cantaloupe which provided the strain which allowed mass production. And a snack for the scientists who discovered it.
comment in response to post
That’s what the double blinded studies are for. And there are a lot of them happening around global-1s and schizophrenia because schizophrenia meds make you gain a fuckload of weight and increase your risk of metabolic syndrome. So it’s the kind of thing you study specifically for approval, here.
comment in response to post
It’s the culture introducing retroaging tech. You’re welcome, Terrans. Can the BBC play GCU Arbitrary’s request now?
comment in response to post
Moldy bread is only very rarely a good treatment. Moldy cantaloupes have been known to harbor very friendly strains, occasionally. Maybe once.

Sorry, dead tooth. I calls em like I sees em. We’re redoing the gilded age with even more cynical oligarchs.

Man, it’s weird that their principles over employee wages and benefits are less important than their principles over a $1.50 hotdog.
comment in response to post
You may have trouble with the concept of metaphor. Mental or mystical, fatalism that your predictions are inevitable makes inevitability a lot more likely.
