Also notice how the long distance, chaotic distribution, and heavy aid boxes force families to self-select their strongest person, who would also be most able to put up a fight to defend their family. Then the IDF is gunning them down when they're in the chute, leaving starving women and children that are easily disposed of.

Crazy recognize crazy

Protected from weather and ambush, high vantage point to survey territory, and it's a BOX! Purrfect.

I like the point about climate change, if you could trick the genie into agreeing that once you set up your new home you get to stay there. Then pick a spot on the cusp of frigidity. So it will gradually get into the double digits at least.

There are dentists who advertise their more humane approach, it's worth shopping around. You don't have to actually visit them all, in fact it's better not to be in the chair when discussing what you need. Instead you could contact them with a spiel about your own issues regarding tooth care and shaming by dentists. Then pick one who seems to want to try to help you have healthy teeth and a positive experience. Frankly it doesn't matter if they're "faking it" to get your business, if it works for you.

I'm not saying it was any actual kid, that's just the only reason I could imagine being possibly justified.

Yes making jam is easy in a small amount like this, but canning it so it's shelf-safe is a whole process.

Maybe he's shy

Storebought is fine if you need jam and don't have time or energy.

But if you aren't up for eating all of those fresh berries in the fridge before they go bad, there's a reason it's called "preserves." And you can mix different berries, even pitted cherries, or I've added a pouch of açai before, it's all good, just different. If you want it smooth, use a blender or scrape it through a strainer. I've subbed Xylitol for the sugar and it works too.

The only situation I could imagine in which this decision could possibly be justified is if a small child got hold of a gun (because Texas) and shot her in play, and they're trying not to ruin the kid's life.

I had to check, because I was pretty sure there's already no dyes in their jam and that is true.

You can make jam easily by boiling 2 cups rinsed and hulled (and cut if you like smaller bits) strawberries with the juice of a lemon and 2 cups of sugar for about 8 minutes, scraping the bottom with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. It will be a nice bright color without any help. If you're not proficient with doing sterile jars, store half in the fridge and half in the freezer.

Turns out the dyes are mostly in Hostess baked goods and other companies they've acquired.

Seems to me your definition of intelligence ignores whole aspects of true intelligence, at least of the human kind, such as emotional intelligence and social intelligence and artistic intelligence and moral intelligence...

"Problem solving" is the name for what you described and it doesn't necessarily require intelligence. In fact most intelligent people have encountered situations where it made solving a problem more difficult.

Shame.

Those now in power, and Trump especially, have none. They don't even understand the concept. And it's been embraced by his hyenas.

Used to be, when the general population became aware of atrocities, and that they were committed against innocent people, they refused to continue to support those who had done wrong. Now Trump waves it in their face like a banner and they follow him

Used to be,

Therapy definitely has its place. But that place should also include a purring cat, as should every home.

Wanted to get started rolling in his grave.

But they privatized the loot

Oui, d'accord, butalthough he's not officially a Musketeer until he's proved himself with gallantry, daring, and disregard for the evil Richelieu and his minions.

You mean Lost Boys vampire gang leader David?

Why save it for later? Because it would impede Congress from accomplishing its business? But it's a Republican controlled Congress that's hell-bent on passing more aspects of Project 2025. So obstruction is really the only play available for the Dems.

If the shoe were on the other foot, McConnell or Gingrich would have held that brake pedal to the floor. Even though we all know there will be no personal consequences, it's a method of Delay, Deny, Defend against the handover to fascism.

We are Siamese if you DON'T please!
