This is my question too. The majority of pregnant women with access to alcohol have gone ahead and drank it throughout history. Maybe some people are genetically very sensitive to alcohol and thus prone to FASD, while others have a higher tolerance, so to speak?

So... were there no neurotypical people born in the US prior to about 1970? Because it used to be extremely common for women to drink alcohol during their pregnancies because the water quality was so bad. It’s really only been in the past like, 50 years that the “don’t drink while pregnant” thing really started to be…

Population growth slows down pretty rapidly when you give women control over their own reproduction, and when you empower them to control their own economic destinies. I’d rather folks focus their attention on that than on trying to get a relatively small number of relatively affluent women to refrain from bearing…

YUP. You know what they could have done if they really wanted to help workers? Made the tax breaks for business contingent upon things like paid family leave and/or livable wages.

Am I wrong in saying that this will negatively affect women so much more than men? Since women are kind of physically required to take days off after each birth, and men are not? I could see there being quite a disparity between the sexes in average retirement age if this were implemented.

You have to admit, ICE is a much catchier and hipper acronym than SS ever was.

Here’s the other thing about this . . .

I mean . . . yes, Steele had bias against Trump . . . BECAUSE HIS SOURCES WERE TELLING HIM THAT TRUMP WAS CONSPIRING WITH THE RUSSIANS TO SUBVERT DEMOCRACY!

If the Blue Lives are shooting an unarmed minorities they matter. If the Blue Lives are trying to hold rich, white guys accountable - they don’t matter.

Repost, but applicable.

This reminds me of when right after the election the la times did a story about farmers in central California who voted from trump were worried that no one would be around to pick food for them because they’d be deported.

I’m more upset by morons like Jimmy Dore saying that losing the election was good because it would energize the left. They completely ignored all the pain and suffering it has caused to the most vulnerable people in the country.

This must be that economic insecurity I heard about. All those poor, gentle, simple heartland folks, this is all they ever gosh darn wanted. You know, for economic reasons.

Terrorizing and creating chaos, like the beginnings of the 3rd Reich.

Damn shame none of the 5 children were armed.

Take all the guns.

At around $12 an hour, 40 hours a week, full-time jobs pay higher than many others in the region, and the benefits are also better than many other jobs in the industry. But workers are required to be on their feet all day, and receive scant time for bathroom breaks or lunch. They’re pressured to meet certain…

It’s unskilled labor paying above minimum wage with benefits. They are expected to do their job with some level of urgency. Why is that so bad?

“I kind of want to come up with a little bit of a code of conduct...”

Whoever is running against these three men should have at least 50% of their ads pointing out that they couldn’t even vote to protect young athletes from sexual abuse, and the ad should finish with “Why? Who is Justin Amash/Thomas Massie/Mark Sanford trying to protect? Because it’s certainly not our children from…
