I mean, it is, but smoke and, weirdly, polonium are also very large contributors to cancer from tobacco use.

Presumably because they're confidential and therefore need to be disposed of properly and storing them costs money?

Here's the article that should have been posted, except of course that it's a few months old and nothing new has been reported on it yet that I know of. https://pme.uchicago.edu/news/inverse-vaccine-shows-potential-treat-multiple-sclerosis-and-other-autoimmune-diseases

Organize more and harder.

Ah yes, the nostalgic leftist scifi show that defined generations is popular amongst the left leaning members of the nostalgia generation.

Or bring Muslim, dude is the most genuinely religiously Christian president since Carter

There is nothing "past" infinity, infinity is more a concept than a number, there are however many different kinds of infinity. And for the record, infinity + 1 = infinity, those are completely equal. Infinity + infinity = infinity x 2 = still the same kind of infinity. Infinity times infinity is debatably a different kind of infinity but there are fairly simple ways of showing it can be counted the same.

Essentially the number of numbers between 1 and 2 is the same as the number of numbers between 0 and infinity. They are still infinite.

Or install it yourself, it's shockingly easy

I did say "if the market works correctly" for a reason.

I'd call them not in Gaza...

Well, not if the USDA has anything to say about it...

It's funny/sad the stark contrast between the ones where you can't really tell why they're defederated from just the name vs the ones where it's extremely obvious (and how little in-between there is)

No disagreement there, my guns are locked the fuck up and UBCs and gun storage laws are no brainers.

Yes, there is no (federal) law against making a gun yourself or from a kit that has basically always been a thing. You can also 3d print most of all of a gun. And this also does nothing to change the lack of UBC law. Those are unrelated issues. (And for the record, I support most UBC laws).

The ability to buy or build a gun without a background check via private party is unchanged by the ability to cheaply buy gun accessories from destroyed guns.

Maybe not your fantasy. But maybe someone elses fantasy world.

I don't know where people like you get their ideas about medieval times, but even if you confine your view to a fairly narrow part of history and the world you're still wrong... Disability was a huge part of life as one would imagine of a relatively violent and hard world with little medical technology. Blindness, deafness, muteness, lameness, mental illness and physical deformity were all facts of life then as they are today even if the causes and treatments were not as understood. Varying degrees and types of what would now be called disabilities were very common among the peasantry and less common but much better cared for among the wealthy.

Heck, the Hapsburgs inbred themselves to extinction over several hundred years along with a host of physical deformities.

While of course there is a storied history of monasteries sheltering the sick and disabled and of leper colonies, most people with disabilities in medieval Europe lived within the community, working where they could and being supported and cared for by their community and families where they couldn't. Begging obviously was where some ended up but was not the default.

I was a pretty active user. I check in maybe a few times a month now at most.

Most of a gun isn't the part that is legally considered a gun. The lower receiver, which is the part that makes it shoot and has the serial number on it is legally the gun. The rest are just gun accessories essentially and anybody can buy and sell them. You can't just turn any amount of them into one functional gun, you need the lower receiver. You cannot buy a lower receiver without going through a background check and the fact that you can buy everything but the lower receiver without a background check doesn't change the fact that you don't have a gun without getting a hold of the lower receiver which does require a background check to get.

This article is rage bait for people who don't know about guns.

Did you feel a lot of parental consent vibe from the OP?

A clue is that it's covered in tattoos, yes
