Is that a typo, or do you mean something else when you say “water fast”? Are you claiming to have gone 20 days ingesting nothing but water? 

“Is this administration just going out of their way to check off every one of the “domestic abuser” cliches?”

Counterpoint. If someone does drive a bus and decides to smoke weed after they get home from work, who cares? The most innocuous drug on the list also happens to be the one with the longest detection time. 

You know why you don’t get the flu? Because a large enough portion of the population gets a vaccine that is effective enough to reduce the likelihood of globe-spanning pandemics like 1918. Idiots like you undermine that.

I doubt you’ll be convinced by this or anything else, but vulnerable people will die because of people like you. I don’t know if you’re scared of needles, lazy, or just skeptical of Western (actual) medicine, but that kind of ignorant, selfish, idiotic decision regularly costs the lives of people better than you.

Guys - you’re arguing over an abstraction. Everyone knows that both Swedes and Norwegians are actually born with tails and Finns have antlers that they file off. Danes are the only good Scandinavians. 

Nothing about this is a game anymore - the American right wing has stopped treating politics like a process for finding consensus (ideal) or a game to be won (not ideal, but at least familiar) and moved on to treating it like a life-or-death struggle for power. Fox News is the propaganda arm of an anti-democratic polit…

Unfortunately, that’s not how this works. Inter-communal violence isn’t committed by sociopaths -it’s committed by large groups of generally ordinary people who become convinced that their actions are justified. There are a depressing number of historical examples where the political situation in countries has…

Definitely. I wouldn’t bet on it, but he’s a crazy-powerful, accurate striker so he can always get lucky. Khabib would probably win 8 fights out of 10, but every second they’re standing up Connor has a chance.

My theory is pretty boring, but I feel good about it.

“Don’t sneak up on me like that, Colonizer”

Looks like somebody tried to pull a Snowden and fled to the wrong China. 

An Ambassador’s house isn’t really their house - it’s an official residence where they get to live for a few years and where they are expected to host representational events on behalf of the government. Honestly, if you were really looking for extravagant spending on Ambassadorial residences you could probably do a…

I can see a rationale for deploying drones in a surveillance role at the border (despite the lack of an actual illegal immigration crisis), especially as an alternative to something genuinely idiotic like a wall.

It’s possible but not especially likely that the Russians were operating in those countries without some level of permission/cooperation by the host governments. I’d also be surprised if injury was actually the intended purpose of whatever device they were using. As for the goal being driving a wedge between those…

I’m sure that will be extremely comforting to the family of an innocent person killed because a facial recognition algorithm misidentifies him as an armed suspect who just fled the scene of a murder. 

“I’m ok with X percentage of innocent men having to provide evidence that they aren’t who the computer says they are if it means Y percentage of guilty men are put into custody”

On the one hand, I think it’s a positive development that Facebook is finally starting to confront this problem. On the other hand, this particular gesture is completely performative and I’m pretty sure Facebook knows that. They’re posting in local papers so they can demonstrate to the educated, urban elites that read…

Whew! That’s a relief. Kennedy was never a liberal, he was just somewhat moderate.
