“As a psychiatrist working with active duty military and veterans I get asked by patients to support the use of “emotional support animals” and I do not”

I don’t think I give Paul/Mcconnell the credit to pull off something that Machiavellian. Long gaming hicks AND the Koch-Mercer clan at the same time? Mitch McConnell?

I’m not savvy on procedure when it comes to filling a vacated seat, but man is it going to be fucking gross if he croaks in the next month or two and they think they can still get a vote. They’ll swear the next guy in at Mccain’s funeral

You’re preaching to the choir here kid. But if your attitude is “well, actually *pushes glasses up on nose - snorts* we- uh, had a press conference that was attended by upwards of 3 media members - all local press” - then what you’re gonna see is more of the nonsense in these threads. Do the nerd thing and go sit in…

Please stay on topic

“long term capital gains”

“(especially after the “greed is good” 80's)“

Stuck it out to the end and was not disappointed!

Scientists - do they hold press conferences? Are they well attended? How about press briefings - PR notes? Cause the goddamned chemical industry does all of the above on a level just short of Mcdonalds and Nike and they’re message is: pesticides are your friend - without them you would starve or be eaten alive by…

I work with a fair number of student athletes at a major state uni. BY FAR, the most privileged, the most likely to ask you to do something shady, the most likely to be an overall jackass = the equestrian team.

Not just with food - try buying any sort of smelly garden flower. You won’t find them at a L&G store. You can still order some heirloom varieties that haven’t been completely neutered of smell, but even those are less bold than 20 years ago. Smell attracts bugs (as well as humans) - and weirdos don’t want bugs in a…

Pesticide use in America isn’t SO much about aesthetics - sure, it is a contributor, but the bigger goal is yields. Which hasn’t made much sense since the 1970's because we produce around 30% more food than we eat

“and this article isn’t written to skew one way or the other.”

Funding is fucktard

A large military, sure. A military that has no tangible threat and yet still outspends the next 10 countries combined is some dystopian ignorance.

Money - you see, its sort of finite. Like theres a limited supply. Say one were to make the inane statement that a single-payer system is grossly expensive and untenable, but then to vote to allocate roughly that same amount of money to an institution that outspends the next 10 countries COMBINED, well, you see dear,…

You’re as white as the day is long

“If British Taxis are so good, then why does Uber have a 3.5 million rider stat”

Bingo. The cult of the shareholder is as much to blame for income inequality and worshiping CEO’s.
