I 10,000% guarantee this would not be enacted by a Trump presidency. Worst, if some for of it was put forward it would have specific conditions limiting which country of origin this would apply to (surprise surprise: white ones).

Please don't get lured by the broken clock phenomenon...

Let's be clear on what that implies: it means all women travelling Interstate would have to prove at a state border that they're not pregnant. Which means proving with what?

Some form of proof you have an IUD or contraceptive? They're planning on banning that too.

Some kind of medical document, emitted less than x days ago by a doctor?

And since that would be insanely difficult to obtain, it essentially means women would be banned from interstate travel.

Welcome to Gilead, blessed be the fucking fruit.

I wonder..

By his own legal admission, he's not a journalist but an entertainer.

Thus what he's doing with Putin is entertainment.

So he's dealing with Russia (literally) and Russian companies to produce a profit making entertainment content.

Russia is under sanctions.

Isn't he breaking the law?

Well huh. I was going to post: "you know who wouldn't have fallen for that? Esteemed academy awards nominated actress Margot Robbie, that's who".

But I enter the thread and who do I see, posting in the middle of the work day no less?

You guessed it. Esteemed academy awards nominated actress Margot Robbie.

Tsk tsk.

Shit - some rando from the internet sincerely wishes you luck, hope you beat the shit out of that cancer

The real question then is whether the dems are willing to run someone solid and progressive against him, and whether that person would have a shot...

Good luck with that.

Literally a few articles above in my feed:

Dear United States,

I hope this email finds you well. I couldn't help but notice some unsettling developments in your life recently, and as your upstairs neighbor and friend, I felt the need to reach out.

It's been hard to ignore the noise from your past relationship with that abusive ex-boyfriend. You were so brave to leave him four years ago, especially after that terrifying January 6 incident. But now, I've heard whispers that you might be considering getting back together with him. Is that true?

I remember how hard it was for you, and for all of us who care about you, when he was around. His actions and the chaos he brought into your life were not only harmful to you but also affected those around you, including us upstairs. We thought we had lost the warm, friendly neighbor we knew.

Please think carefully about this decision. We all want what's best for you, and it's painful to see you possibly walking back into a situation that caused so much hurt and turmoil. If you need someone to talk to, I'm always here.

Take care and stay safe.

Sincerely,

Canada

Make sure the virtual packaging is never opened!! The moment that "hours played" marker isn't 0 anymore, it looses all collectability value

Sorry if someone else pointed to this already, but this could be relevant for your story:

"Unlike a body circling a single star, a planet orbiting a pair of stars would have to contend with two gravitational fields. And because the stars themselves orbit each other, the strength of the gravitational forces would constantly change."

Come on, give them a chance, do you know how long these flags were in the closet?

Call your house representatives, have them legislate on and forbid this practice, be explicit about not voting for them if they don't make it part of their platform.

My guess: didn't know she was pregnant until very late. Options were dwindling or nil. She was completely and insanely career obsessed and career-anxious.

Arrives the last month or two. Pregnancy is hard to ignore then, but it was probably daily terror and panic as she didn't know what to do. She probably felt cornered, insane with anxiety and barely holding it together in a field that doesn't give you any room for error.

By the time she has to deliver, her brain is likely already pure soup from the anxiety, obsessing with how she can't handle it, how it can't be happening, how she can't be a mother, doesn't want to be a mother, can't - not doesn't want to, but can't! CAN'T you understand?! - stop to work.

So she delivers secretly. By this point she's too far gone, mentally a complete mess, insane, unstable.

So she kills her newborn.

Not as a heinous premeditated act of hatred, violence and mischief, but as a completely insane act of post partum depression, psychosis, work related anxiety and sheer craziness.

She didn't choke or shake the baby then dug a grave at night - she didn't do some elaborate crime and elaborate body-hiding shenanigans.

She threw. The. Baby. Out. Her. Own. Window.

And she's a lawyer.

There was no attempt whatsoever to not get caught or to act surreptitiously.

Just pure terror, psychosis and a horrible, tragic impulse that ended up terminating a new life and ruining another.

Sorry i got carried away lyrically lol.

It's a very advanced algorithm.

Step 1: would we cover this? No: all good. Yes: consult AI.

Step 2: is the AI recommending we cover this? No: all good. Yes: reconfigure AI and go to step 2.

I could imagine, yes, that 44% of aggressive men would stop dead in their tracks if shouted "SMELL MY TEARS! SNIFF'EM, GEORGE!" mid fight

Well it's risky either way. That said Kamala as vp was supposed to represent the "in case of emergency break glass" younger democrat - not too left, just neolib enough for the party, yet younger - that would step in if Biden's age became an issue.

It's now an issue and she didn't play a role in reassuring the public, so...

Holy Invisible Flying Spaghetti Monster, batman!

35 is a very young age that people in their 40ies like me envy the youth of.

  • Install a well anchored level shelf.

  • Plaster, sand the holes and repaint when you remove the shelf.

Very basic tools, very easy techniques, yet mind blowing how many people don't know how to do these things.

Hey wait a minute, something doesn't smell right here!

Contrary to my lovely wife's Chanel's New Eau De Parfum™, which smells diving - almost as good as her Calvin Klein deep euphoria™.

Anyways, color me impressed, Oscar Nominated Producer Margot Robbie!

Which is easy with my wife's new Splat™, 100% vegan hair dye, made with baobab extract and formulated with quinoa!

Ok that's all the Margot Robbie sponsored products a 10 second google search shows me ;)

The thing is - and I say that from experience (being somewhat on the ADHD spectrum myself) - that there are no limits to how many of these you can use; or at least that's how it feels to me (sorry!).

It seriously feels good to see this written down sometimes. I hate that religion somehow laid claim to morality.

Start volunteering for the person running against them!

Yup, Ney York crime statistics were a perfect case study for that, i can't remember the name of the documentary

I know it's been said a bunch of times now, but I've never been so convinced of anything in my life as much as I'm convinced this means Trump shat in the Oval.

So the "Oh no! Bernie's running, do something!" feeling

As a Quebecquer with mild fantasies, I can relate. I, too, am a frog who wouldn't mind it's vanilla as long as I'm drowning in it.
