"Diminishing her" is sensationalist nonsense.


No it isn't. She was a kid having a shot at being a part of a professional adult leadership group and this nasty old creep touched her and made a comment on her physical appearance in front of everyone. How do you not understand why that would be diminishing to anyone?
I'd be surprised if they haven't already been blackmailed.

Texts and WhatsApp messages reveal that Bryon was being repeatedly asked for money during the 14 months Noem led the nation's largest federal law enforcement agency.

He sent his secret roster of online acquaintances at least $25,000 via Cash App and PayPal but when the payments were delayed or failed to materialize the chats would quickly turn sour.

One of the women became so disgruntled she posted about his behavior on social media before later deleting it.
Growing up in the pandemic had adverse mental health effects on a lot of kids.
I work at an independent pharmacy. I'll never work at the big box retail for many reasons, one of them includes how angry people are by the time they've held 30 minutes and finally get a human on the phone.

At my pharmacy, a human picks up within three rings.

If real, I think it's a terrible act of vandalism. I wouldn't like it if the same was done to Christian texts.

I'd be surprised if they weren't aware of the object long before impact and decided not to warn people.

I am very happy with ancestry.com and got a lot of high-quality research done. I coupled it with a subscription to newspapers.com. Having access to the newspapers allowed me to confirm links with more confidence because I had access to images of wedding announcements obituaries etc.
I do not want my government deciding anything about which religion to endorse in any setting. Period.

We are finally learning how to farm the sky for energy. All this time, the fastest, most consistent winds on Earth have stayed just out of reach. They swirled thousands of feet above our heads while we struggled to build taller and heavier steel towers on the ground. But in a quiet corner of Sichuan Province, a 197-foot silver giant just proved that we don’t need to build towers as tall as skyscrapers for turbines — we just need a very long leash. The S2000, a massive airborne wind energy system (AWES), recently completed a landmark test flight. Developed by Beijing Linyi Yunchuan Energy Technology, this helium-filled “airborne power station” hovered at 6,560 feet (2,000 meters), funneling 385 kilowatt-hours of electricity directly into the local grid. In just 30 minutes, this single floating unit generated enough juice to power an average American home for nearly two weeks.


Fascinating. Seems like progress over windmills


Edit: Looking at images and videos....ugly AF I'd go full NIMBY on one of these above my house
Wow, White tailed dear is a popular choice. 10 states?

I'm going with Virginia - American fox hound, because dogs are the best animals.

Under my UHC plan, it would run me 125 dollars. At that point, what is the freaking point of having insurance. Only good thing is that my employer is paying 100% of my medical insurance, otherwise it would be easier just to pay the 183 GoodRx price.


Insurance is such a scam. Flu shots are required to be covered at no cost. Xofluza should be free if you got the damn flu shot and then still got the flu.

It's better than Tamiflu but expensive. You will pay $35 to $150/dose depending on prescription coverage even with coupon. No generic until 2038 or so.

That's probably what she did to see if he'd own up.
Why was it it hanging over the side like that? Who hung it there and thought, "That looks good?" :dope:

Most of the time this doesn't get reported. That needs to be change. The shame should be on the perpetrators. Talk to your kids. Show them examples of mob behavior and give them the words to speak up to people around them. "Hey this isn't okay. I'm leaving. I'm calling the police"
Jesus, that poor woman. That is horrific.
That's not very nice:lol:

That's Scoot.
