I’ve read that most calls to poison control are for substances sold with kratom in them. There are a lot of sketchy drugs sold out there (at head shops and gas stations) that may contain kratom, but from this article I don’t think you can confirm or deny that kratom alone is actually dangerous.  Certainly more study…

400, but they’ll be sent by only five people.

Funny, because if there wasn’t such a social/left pushback against the current capitalist president, the US would be governed by an Authoritarian regime, and well on its way to full totalitarianism

Capitalism is the path to totalitarianism. It always has been and always will be and can not be anything other. Big C capitalist beliefs must be crammed down on a majority at the expense of a minority and that takes force. If you want to understand this, read Marx’s “Das Kapital”.

I like AOC, she’s very refreshing and has the balls to bring forth proposal to change for the better. She’s not being paid by lobbyists or special interest groups and everyone opposed to her positions are scared that sweet, sweet kickback will dry up. Yes these are lofty goals, but that is what you need to when you’re…

If you’ve read any of this supposed plan, you know it’s a framework, not a hard and fast plan with concrete details and/or a concrete budget. It’s also not binding in any form or fashion in its current format-even if it passes, it simply represents a set of ideals that the House is supposed to work towards.  But sure,…

The Green New Deal has 70 co-sponsors in the House. Here’s a whole bunch of Senators getting all on board, too (and just to be quick about it, all declared 2020 Democratic candidates have signed on board):

So we should effecitvely fire half of Congress because they are “junior members”, and never elect any new ones? Junior members become senior members, you know.

You may question her relevance now, but damned if she hasn’t gotten a lot of people talking about legislation to combat climate change, which is a large part…

In B4 the “high speed rail won’t work because ‘merica big” posts are made by people who don’t realize there are countries bigger than the U.S. that have high speed rail systems.

Hey, since you have to have some trouble reading, I’ll quote the relevant portion of the post here:

right, socialism for corporations only!!

Also, why should I be upset that a superstar player goes to a team that isn’t the Yankees, Red Sox, or Dodgers?  More superstars to teams outside top 10 in payroll, please.

I think simply calling the White Sox a team that finished 4th in the AL Central last season is intentionally misleading. They’re in the middle of a clear, planned rebuild with some exciting prospects and should be much better pretty soon with or without Machado.

It’d almost be like saying it was a shame that Jon Lester…

2005 has tided me over since and will continue to tide me over until 2035. The trick is to watch the dvd as much as possible.

None of this is reasonable, corporation worshiper. You people are the Hitler Youth of worshiping corporations.

not to mention, Kamala Harris chose NOT to prosecute Steve Mnuchin. figure that one out.

I don’t think anyone on the Splinter staff will tell you to vote for Biden, but I’ve sure as shit heard it from commenters.

Or... we stop conceding bullshit premises like ageism that magically do not apply to centrists his same age?

Ageist bullshit is neither “perfect” nor “true”.

>Alternately, Bernie himself could run for president. What would this accomplish?
