I've heard from Gen Z that ending a text response with a period is passive aggressive. So "cool" may have seemed glib on its own, but the punctuation might be giving an additional, if unintentional, tone
Add that any products grown for trade are sitting unwanted in fields, or for aid rotting in warehouses because the government canceled the contracts for them. Food is often held in special warehouses where the oxygen is pumped out, but there aren't enough of those to hold all the excess that was expected to be sent elsewhere
It's a colossal mess, with an incredible amount of waste
This is anecdotal, but 22 years ago I attended an event where the US Air Force proudly played a video of a Predator drone strike. I was a teenager who avidly gamed, and felt horror at what I was forced to witness because I knew these were real people who were dying agonizing deaths
To this day I still feel the same emotions when I think of it, and I can't listen to Drowning Pool's "Bodies" because that's the song they played to accompany the footage
I am ashamed to say I mained this character for a bit and only recognized it on the final animation. I stopped playing almost a decade ago though
I'm glad this was the ruling. But will it stand up to appeal? In the 80s federal funding for highways was withheld unless the state complied with the new minimum age for drinking alcohol.
Edit: it was only 10% of the allocated funds, so maybe there is a chance
I have the same cat tent, and both of my cats prefer sleeping anywhere else lol
I tried to save Iran humiliation and death. I tried to save them very hard because I would have loved to have seen a deal worked out
That's... that's not why anyone tries to save human lives, Donald.
Edit: this was meant to be a reply to simplejack
That's why he's trying to criminalize any ideology besides whatever his is. RFK Jr also talked about "work camps" for people with mental health issues.

Uhhh... that thing where people glue little strands of hair to their forehead in an arc
Do you mean styling baby hairs?
doctors could refuse to treat veterans based on their "reason for seeking care - including allegations of rape and sexual assault - current or past political party affiliation or political activity, and personal behavior such as alcohol or marijuana use".
An incredibly high number of veterans (or anyone, really) with PTSD have or had substance use disorder. A large percentage of those same veterans have MST (military sexual trauma). Quite a lot of people are discharged from the military following disclosure of being a victim of rape or sexual assault while serving. This is going to lead to more veterans killing themselves because they aren't getting the care they deserve
This would have made more sense because at least the stripes are in order: 🇳🇱 ✨ 🇳🇱
I moved from one county to another in the same state between the last two presidential elections. Three months before the 24 election I get a letter from my old county saying I need to prove my disability or vote in person. No idea what that was about, because you don't need to be disabled to vote by mail in this state. They obviously knew I moved five hours away because I changed my address everywhere and it was directly mailed to me, not forwarded to me.
So I wrote them a nice letter back saying I had moved and had already changed my registration to my new county. One month before the election all my friends had gotten their mail in ballots, but I hadn't. Turns out my voter registration was canceled in my new county by the old one. So I re-registered, took my new ballot home and filled it out. Then I took it to the courthouse to file, and guess what? My voter registration had been canceled again. I still have no idea if my ballot was even counted, but this county was one that was blue all the way down except for president
I voted by mail in '22 from my new address with zero issues from the old one. So I'm extremely suspicious at the length that someone went to in order to discourage my vote last year. I'm positive it happened to more people than just me
I have a hard time believing they didn't know of and weren't complicit in the attack on Iran. They just diverted an arms shipment from Ukraine to Israel that specifically are claimed to counter Iranian drones
Edit: I saw it was to Israel on the BBC I think, but this article says otherwise

I make significantly less at 100% rating than I would if I had been able to stay in my career since I was medically separated or if I was able to do the same thing as a civilian (easily over 6 figures). It's still much more than poverty level, but the $46k I'll get this year just can not compete with what I could have had.
I know that much of the value in my benefits is free medical though, and that adds up fast when you suddenly have pronounced weakness in half your body and doctors can't figure out why
When I was going through evaluation to start hormonal transition my primary care doc's nurse asked me to explain what non-binary is, and when I figured it out. I explained the things I told the doctor who evaluated me, thinking that if it was good enough for her, it should be good enough for this nurse.
My nurse told me I just hate the patriarchy and that's why I hate myself. Lol
My cats are fed in separate rooms for the same reason. I put a little collar activated flap on one door so the picky one could eat without my youngin sniping her food. He's still trying to figure out how to get in that room, I'm a little surprised he hasn't tried to brute force it yet lol
