He’s on the lowest end of the Nepo Baby scale.

“I can’t stop thinking about how, out of a bench of 17 players, these were the best responses the team could come up with.”

That was something that seemed a little odd about this article. It's odd to frame it as "an eating disorder is a side effect," when it seems like that's exactly why some people are taking it. The side effect is loss of appetite, the disordered eating was already there.

The poisonings started after the girls and women started to protest against the mandatory hijab.  It’s state sanction acts of terror against girls and women for daring to want some element of freedom.

Qualified Immunity is being used to toss bigger and far more egregious cop behavior (like murder) so this doesn’t surprise me.  

i’ve been on it for 6 months and it doesn’t effect my appetite other than i feel full longer but i still love eating and i eat very well. i haven’t lost a single pound on it tho, which is good because i don’t need to lose weight.  if you’re having trouble getting your a1c down don’t be afraid to try it.

Oh good God, can everyone just stop talking about this? I have been on Wegovy for a year and it has immensely helped my blood sugar (pre-diabetic) and my binge eating disorder. I have lost 50 lbs. It has decreased the inflammation all over my body. If you do not want to take it, do not take it. I’m not judging you for…

OK. I actually didn’t know precisely what the stated reasoning was on separating kids from mothers in prison. Thanks for discussion!

Yes, but “suspicious of the mother’s motivation for having children in the first place” is not why the government separates mothers and children in the prison system, either. Both systems, incarceration and DCS, theoretically do this on the assumption that either the mother is an unfit parent or the environment is not…

Oh my. Elizabeth Holmes is only in jail for securities fraud because that’s all they could get her for. What she did is much much worse, both harmful and dangerous. Telling people you’ve perfected a method for analyzing their blood and then knowingly sending out false results (for things like, say, cancer diagnosis or…

I usually agree with you, Buried, but can’t here. There are very rare cases (really rare, but there) where a kid is actually better off with anyone but the mother, and this is probably one of them. A woman who would deliberately conceive a kid (and considering her resources and situation, it had to be deliberate)…

Given the authority that the Chinese government has over any business that operates there (and particularly those that are based there), we have to acknowledge that the concerns are at least somewhat valid.

No, but neither is her making it up, either. 

Or would this be indicative of a potentially serious mental and cognitive decline

...he claimed he just learned that his degree was in Liberal Studies after requesting his official transcript. “When I pulled my transcript to verify, I realized I was mistaken,” Ogles said in a statement. “I apologize for my misstatement.”

Stop making shit up. Thrift stores are not “running out of clothes” for low-income people - they may just throw a slightly smaller percentage of donated clothes in the garbage now. Find me a place in the US where thrift stores don’t have enough clothes to sell and I’ll eat my words, but I really don’t think you will.…

A lot of resellers aren’t “skinny and white”. At the store I worked at, most of our resellers were black, with a bunch of latin & Asian immigrants too. A lot of the people buying resale are also in those communities who just don't have time to thrift. And a lot of thrift stores have programs where clothes and store…

The high end products probably aren't coming from thrift stores in a low income area.

It’s entrepreneurship, actually. Comparing thrifting to colonialism is fucking outrageous, and actively offensive to people actually suffering under colonialism. 

Some have even gone as far as to call her a “mini landlord” (more on that later)
