The masculine urge to become feminine

I personally know someone that cited the bible to demonstrate how Trump was the antichrist. Yes, he sure did still vote for him, because the antichrist is better than a democrat.

Absolutely. But I doubt companies would agree to even try that. They’d rather compete for the spot of “the launcher everyone goes to” (and fail).

I agree. But I’m also keeping in mind that this is the situation capitalists claim to want: competition for everyone to continually improve. They just missed the part where they were supposed to improve and not make things worse. Aside from that, with all the major sites people think of like EA and Epic, it makes things even more difficult to topple that monopoly. Everyone wants to have their games in a convenient place. Having competition is incompatible with what players would want, because they’d need eight different launchers for games. I’m fully content with cycling itch and steam when I want what one or the other offers. For what I imagine is most people, it’s easier to use just one list/site that already has everything.

They got me on this one. I fully expected him to have said something like: “Intelligence had no part in this. It’s just common sense, it’s what we need to do. No thinking required.”

Live, Laugh, Love? No, I languish, latibulate, lamemt

Heard the first but not the second, and my major was one where 50% would have agreed with Thanos. Immigration is basically necessary with climate change, since rising sea levels (among other things) displace people. But otherwise I agree, since I graduated with a bunch of ecofacists.

For myself, it depends on where I look and what store I’m in. Sometimes the international section can get me soursop juice. Locally owned stores have a better chance of variety.

I’m more annoyed that stores can have entire “juice” aisles, but only the last 10 or so ft. are 100% juice, only 2-3 ft. of which is organic. The rest are juice flavored drinks.

I have a relative who is a doctor. Had a claim denied once from someone that was not a doctor. Next: denied by someone not actively practicing in the field. Then denied by a doctor with no experience in that specialty. Only after all of that was it approved. They’ve also been picky about order of operations, such as not covering an MRI because there wasn’t also an order for a CT.

“They said I wouldn’t believe it.”

I avoided this mistake by giving up (I only had two with me anyway). It took six hours to feel my buzz and it only lasted a few minutes.

Yes, Ben Palmer. And it’s interesting to see how defensive they get when he asks, “so you want us deport them for doing [normal activity]?” They may even insist, no, just an investigation, but still get mad when he says “yeah, this person is fully legal.”
