No, it's because opioids aren't 100% effective at a painless death either. At this stage, no death we know of is truly "painless". Well, that we can prove anyway. They've had patients hooked to brain monitors when they've died in their sleep, the brain goes through severe stress at the moment of death. Drowning is meant to be okay, but for obvious reasons, we can't prove that.

You could have literal millions more immigrants or social welfare recipients, tax the rich properly, and be able to afford it.

Nope. Only on the grey market. To be fair, most grey market sellers if it do have a fairly robust refund set up cos Australian law dictates they must. But some of them will make you feel like you're trying to get blood from a stone if something goes wrong...

Hyperphantasia is the opposite.

We 100% talk that way. Stop trying to sanitise us for the rest of the world!

I mean, to be fair, we probably started calling it Macca's about 15mins after the first store opened.

Nickname isn't the name though. We use "AC/DC" and "ACCA Dacca" pretty much just regularly as each other down here.

Don't stop taking it. Yes, you are having adverse side effects, but some meds are real hard to go cold turkey with them. It sucks, but stick with it until you can see your GP (gonna agree with everyone here saying see your GP instead of waiting for a psych, your gp may not be an expert in this field, but they're gonna be able to at least get you through this til you can see a psychiatrist etc).

No, they're not fucking. Cos of the code.

H. pylori causes stomach ulcers. The people who found the connection won a Nobel prize for it. Also, I don't know what the person who suggested you get tested for it is on, you don't need a fecal sample to get tested - you just drink a liquid, wait a short while, then blow in a bag. As for the lack of action, you're in the early stages of seeing a physician, they aren't going to let the horses go at full gallop unless you're on deaths door. Until then, baby steps. Which sucks, I've been there. But it is what it is, and you've got to suck it up for now.

They already render the prisoner unconcious when they administer the lethal injection. It's not 100% effective though, thus the search for a method that doesn't have the potential to horrify onlookers.

Ahhhhhh, but one is less likely to make an error when they're tired. In sure that even nursing could rotate to a 3x shift per day cycle and the wheels wouldn't fall off.

I'm old. There used to be a number of "how many do you do?" campaigns with cricketers, soccer players etc for Weet bix. And yeah, nutri grain has been sponsoring that tournament since the 80s. It's basically trash though, when it comes to nutrition. Rice bubbles and corn flakes are also fine enough sugar wise, both are below 10%. Not much else going for them though as they are both low in fibre.

The poms have a version of Weet bix, too. Weet bix have to be commended for their marketing though, I still remember all the ads I'd see growing up if sports stars espousingvthe benefits of em. And they pump a lot of money into kids sport (do they still have the kids try-athlon series?) Kinda crazy given how marketing around food is these days.

Correct. We are currently in a golden age for unearthing new dinosaurs. Pretty much every week there's something new that we have found.

All the accounts for all their shows, as well as their journos. They produce a lot of original content, and have a lot of journalists. This is not an insignificant measure.
