They aren't throwing brood mares in jail for not foaling

Great, another public SERVICE that's being treated as an expense. It's not meant to be profitable you useless politicians! That's not the point!

Ahh, after all this time, the Socratic Method still reigns

Indeed, it's a fine Italian meal

It's him, Ray Dalio, and Bill Ackman duking it out in a confidently incorrect cage match.

Yikes, 48 dead since October 2023, 222 cases last month. That mother's story about not wanting to be a hypochondriac parent and then losing her daughter so quickly as the symptoms escalated is heartbreaking.

"If you have a severe sore throat without a cough or other cold or upper respiratory tract infection symptoms, if you have fever with it, if you're feeling generally quite unwell with these symptoms, then seek medical attention," said Hota in an interview.

That's a really good response / addition for addition context. Thank you.

Since we're all dummies and you know the answers, please go ahead and explain how Google goes about selling heavily targeted ads to uniquely identifiable groups, but that they also are not "selling data".

Are we being massively pedantic and saying that it's not actual user data, but rather leveraging said data to sell ads to the anonymized targeted groups, who are actively tracked by Google around the internet so ads can be served up at opportune times in their browsing?

Because that dumb argument is like saying Oxford Dictionary doesn't sell words, they sell definitions; or that McDonalds doesn't sell beef, they sell hamburgers.

Sorry if I miscommunicated. No, they're not selling your home address. But the idea that they aren't monetizing your personal data aggressively is laughably wrong and heavily documented.

Too bad a bunch of ignorant fucks have voluntarily stopped taking perfectly good and reasonable vaccines, leading to outbreaks where none need have happened.

Eat shit and die, Andrew Wakefield, for being an enormous fraud and generally awful human being. I hope you and all the vaccine deniers that were inspired by you die in some sort of searing hot liquid plastic accident.

Literally everyone. Have you been living under a rock?

Thanks for a high quality reply / addition. What's the source for that chart? I'm not 100% sure how to interpret it.

The issue is not you and me running an extra space heater at home.

The issue is massive corporate energy waste, and the fact that one key CoGen plant had an unplanned outage due to extreme cold weather.

Any other narrative has been built to make you, the paying customer, think you are part of the problem. You are not.

Good analysis here; apologies for TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZM6Q8D292/

Not at all shocking that Pump Hill, one of the most affluent neighbourhoods in town, doesn't want to see an absolutely cut and dry excellent urban density development. NIMBY jerks.

They've got the biggest and best resume when it comes to colonizin; can't let all that experience go to waste!
