It was literally a Bird Box and The Quiet Place mashup. Decent for a horror block at a film festival, but it definitely felt wayyyy too derivative of those two.

My money’s on “the FDA approved it?  I’m not taking that.  Gimme some more of them horse pills over there, and a chaser of bleach while you’re at it.”

Fascists are always inefficient and sloppy, history has always shown that. The TexAss Republicans just adding to that historical pile.

Naw.

Yeah... I don’t really understand this arms race. What’s next, using a chemical reaction to propel the projectile? We’ve already done this.

They’re toys, first and foremost, and are designed to be safe for kids, but there are just as many adult fans of dart blasters out there, which is why companies like Dart Zone sell $180 alternatives with considerably more power. Why stop there, though?

It may resemble a Nerf gun but it is clearly a potato cannon. Why the pretense? And why bother calling Guinness? It’s definitely not the largest potato cannon I’ve ever seen.

It’s the same thing as the first 2 Obama years, except instead of negotiating with moderate Republicans that never intend to vote in favor of what they are negotiating over, it is these moderate “Democrats.”

And we see how that turned out.

Bingo.

Newsflash to progressives (which they already know): he’s not going to tell you what he wants because he’s not going to vote for the bill. So trying to engage him in negotiations doesn’t matter, because he isn’t going to negotiat,e because he isn’t going to vote for the bill.

Absolutely agree that may be the case. Another possibility respectfully suggested. I don’t want to be 80 either and I’ve already been on my “death bed” twice since turning 30 for medical reasons. Maybe he just said fuck it? We'll never know.

The man likely didn’t even have family that gave a damn about him, if he was living in conditions like this. People who don’t have to worry about care, aftercare, etc. can be awfully smug when it comes to situations like this.

Meanwhile in my 3rd world country the vaccine, which is imported from France, costs equivalent to US$ 10,00 per dose and local laboratories are testing one that will cost US$ 5,00 per dose, people from USA should make movements against these obviously over-inflated prices.

Some in the Philippines may have dined on giant, tree-dwelling rodents.

TIL there’s a National Aviary.

As others have pointed out, the man almost certainly would have had coverage through Medicare/Medicaid. But it is definitely a travesty of the healthcare system that companies have gotten to jack up the prices in the U.S., even when compared to other wealthy countries. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/2/7/1…

I’m going to be very vague and just say my friend wasn’t sure if she’d nicked her hand on a bat or not(but she’d definitely nicked her hand). There was a bat involved and no they could not capture it. After some hesitation, she went to the hospital ER(no insurance) and when it was all said and done I believe she was…

You could easily vaccinate my dog all day long if you distract him with cheese. Could this apply to republicans as well? Has anyone tried this?

In NY the county dept of health will give people free rabies vaccinations if you’ve been exposed if you don’t have health insurance to cover it.

Worth noting that the dog in the background of the lead photo is clearly not an anti-vaxxer.
