The FDA is not perfect. It is however the only thing standing between you and delightful radium cures, followed with some lead and arsenic for beauty.

Botulinum toxin doesn’t cause wrinkles in healthy people, therefore your botox example completely misses the premise of homeopathy, which is that an agent that causes disease in a healthy person can be diluted enough to cure the same disease in a sick person. The only disease state botulinum toxin causes is paralysis,…

Hate to break it to you, but it doesn’t matter what you use to dilute something by a factor of 100 over and over again. You still wind up with snake oil. There’s no “ingredient” to trigger. It doesn’t work. It can’t. It just can’t. Save your money.

Almost nothing you wrote is remotely factual. One would not even know where to start on debunking your claims. I got all the way through your comment and found the only line that is not easily disprovable is the very last one, that you’ve worked in “health care” for 21 years.

I don’t believe the “Kylo was lying” theory. And really I’m done with the whole debate anyway. Everybody wasted 2 years hypothesizing about it, turns out Rian Johnson just wanted to say “fuck you!” to everyone’s theories and the continuity of the series. So even if JJ Abrams tries to salvage it by retconning her…

This is actually a pretty damn good summary of TLJ. Now people will continue to talk about how it subverted all the norms!!!!!

Clearly, Abrams and Kennedy had no plan, and so should have just left any “mysteries” out to begin with.

Setting up a mystery with a resolution that defies expectation is one thing, setting up a mystery that isn’t a mystery at all is annoying.

I disagree, as a long time fan it wasn’t the character building or the subversion that got to me. it was terrible direction.

Yeah, it almost feels like that joint storytelling game where you tell a story for 30 seconds and then pass it to the next person to pick up where you left off, and then they pass off to the next person, etc. JJ started with some arcs, but Johnson was like “Nah screw that” and just decided to abruptly write them off.…

Get over yourself. The world doesn’t exist to serve you.

If Finn and Rose didn’t go on their casino excursion, 85% of the movie would have been watching the galaxy’s slowest space chase. Which as a concept sounds hilarious.

I don’t have any problem with the choice, in fact I support it because frankly I’m tired of the “Chosen One” trope.

Mainly, it works with The Last Jedi’s theme of greatness coming from anywhere

I keep saying it - Musk is an ideas guy (and a pretty smart one, at that) - but he’s not the person to lead a company from “cool startup idea” to “routine production”.

There’s nothing magical or better about paper. Everything in this article relates to age-old fraud practices that really aren’t made any easier or harder because the contracts are electronic.

I’ve used docusign extensively without issue for electronic contracts to buy cars and even homes, but then again I don’t sign without reading first. Also docusign is a well established third party that provides the ability for me to download and print all the documents.

I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: As a life-long atheist, scumfuckers like Roy Moore are the most compelling argument I’ve ever experienced in favor of belief in a higher power. Hypocritical scumbags who attack those in need with the cross and claim a holier-than-thou stance while doing so make me want to…

YOUR MOM'S A DISNEY FILM PERHAPS

Everything very spot on except...was she just a Portuguese migrant worker for the summer? In Southern Europe, that kind of migration is kinda common, especially to richer, more northern countries during high season.....I always thought she returned home to Portugal and he followed there.
