Ditto with cold meds. I find a lot of the adult versions too strong for me. A pharmacist suggested this to me - it's the same stuff, just not as potent.
Unless I'm really in a pickle, then Buckleys for the win :)

That works fine - IF you have access to one. For millions this isn't the case. If you can't drive to one, or don't have access to some miracle farm of ultra clean dairy, you have to rely on a grocery store diet.
We're talking millions of people now reliant on an untrustworthy supply.

Some of those "percentages" of bugs etc are due to the fact that food grows in the ground and gets stored in warehouses - bugs, birds, mice, etc walk, pee, etc all over it every day. If the percentages grow too high it suggests poor handling.
But no dairy oversight is a nightmare.

And yogurt.
Yogurt is especially vulnerable as it has to be made at a temp that ENCOURAGES yeast/bacteria growth. Unless the base material is SUPER clean, it can be a vector for all sorts of trouble.

If Pizzaballa gets in I'm praying he keeps THAT name.
Pope Pizzaballs.
If the church really wants to modernize, that's a ready-made meme, right there.

I'm horrified yet curious to see how universities will handle a generation of students used to letting a machine read and write for them. Imagine the panic when they have to hand in all devices before writing an entrance exam....

I agree. That statement of mine was a joke.
The trouble is with this timeline is that satire and truth have become indistinguishable.

10 bucks says this entire deportation madness was created just so Dumpy can use it as a threat to win every argument with his "wife"?

Good point.
Quark says he's gotten more work out of him in 30 minutes than he normally gets in 30 days.
This may or may not be hyperbole.

That explains a few things, namely what I saw Rom slip on and flounder around in for 20 minutes, and why he's currently vibrating so fast he looks blurry at the edges.

10 bucks says it's already all over Twatter, where there is a lively discussion on whether Dumpy is Jesus or God himself.
And no, that isn't a joke.

Checks out. The Nagus looks like he's eaten a few floors worth of éclairs.

Someone inform the captain that some shifty characters are squeegie-ing gallons of éclairs into the bars lower level, and Quark is selling tickets to something called, "Dabo Girl Wrestling Nite".

Didn't Picard ban torrents from the Mirror Universe after the accidental broadcast of "Data Does Dallas" on all displays in Ten Forward?

I'm not a prepper but I do want to be ready in case of an emergency.

Also: find a way you can SAFELY heat water in your place with zero electricity.
Get twice the instant coffee/tea you think you need.
Also prep a few long storing luxuries if you can spare the funds. Morale is equally important.
And TP. Keep a stash. Never goes bad. Always useful.

I'd say prep like you would for an emergency situation but for a longer situation. DON'T PANIC!
Before you rush out, have a coffee/tea and think what you like to eat/will need. Make a list.
This way if disaster DOESN'T happen you won't waste resources.

Best I got is follow-up just to make sure all is working as it should? And if you're actively trying to get pregnant, they may be watching that all is going well?
Your best bet is to call your doc and ask.

He thinks Autism is the way it was portrayed in 1970s TV movie specials: someone who is completely unresponsive to most external stimuli.
The concept of a "spectrum" is too deep for him.

"Manipulate space and time"? That's easy!
It's called a 2 hour nap followed by 5 minutes of not knowing where I am.

This implies a fungus that's literate, has at least basic intelligence, and possibly can use a keyboard.

I hate to even suggest this, but my fear is that the man is dead.
How many people can this prison hold?
How many were there before Trump?
How many have been sent there?
This isn't a prison. It's an extermination camp.

Bold of you to assume he cares.
Melania is an expensive and depreciating ornament in his eyes. Deportation without due process (of his pre nup) would fine by him.
Baron is a lump he only acknowledges if it suits his needs. Unless he suddenly becomes a crowd pleaser, he's expendable.

I have a feeling you're correct. However I don't think the US can strike and hold more than one target - at least for now.
My theory is Gaza is the next target: far enough away to not endanger his personal holdings, and he thinks he can sell the land like he owns it. ART OF THE DEAL and all that.

I also love that they HAD to highlight the "gunshot wound" scar on his ear.
More like scratch from flying glass. A gunshot would've taken his ear right off.
