"I don't believe any drug you have does what it says it does, we are going to investigate them and stop you from getting further approvals"

Do you have any evidence?

"No that's why we are going to investigate"

... So the evidence that currently exists say they work... Yeah maybe we should go elsewhere

UK moves to ban smoking for everyone born after 2008

The issue is that they are NOT doing this for healthcare costs, or any other reason other than telling others what they can do. If it was for healthcare costs, it would be everyone, so you can rule that out from jump. So why did they say 18 and under, because they weren't sure if they could get a large enough following to say yes is they went to high, so divide and conquer. Find enough people who don't care about the minority, and they can get it to pass. Why 18... Because they mostly have no say. If we relabeled it to non-whites can't buy cigarettes, people would be like woah that's racist, but the attempt would be the same, trying to control what others can or can't do while not restricting enough of the majority to lose their votes.

Under 18 can't smoke is like saying under 30 can't cat call people on the street, under 40 can't slap their coworkers on the ass, under 50 can't beat their children, and under 60 can't rape minors.

Either they are all bad/wrong for society.. and should be banned for all, or they are manipulating votes as a plot to slide something else by under peoples noses while playing it up to look like a good guy

I still have more beef for that hack

They won the bet, got the money... And the money was fake gold. (Leprechaun gold). It disappeared. So they were out the money. Not sure if gambling was legal or not, so I don't think trying to report someone as stealing your gambling wins was feasible.

Anyways, yeah the only professional game in the books we saw was the exact scenario that people are complaining here would never happen. As in he caught the snitch to save themselves from complete embarrassment. A score of 370-10 or some shit looks a lot worse than just losing by a few points and putting off the inevitable

What part are you confused about?

The primary? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Democratic_Party_presidential_primaries

The racism?

The sexism?

Man on a mission

That's sad to hear, I think I liked it better when I thought they were fictional characters in my head. But I guess TheStrangerTheDanger was making jokes in a scenario where they probably shouldn't have

pegging order

It's a hen, not a rooster. So it isn't even territorial, it's not attacking you. It can peck your bare toes and while it may surprise you, I've never had them break skin/bled from it. (And I never bother putting on shoes). But my spouse has a pair of sandals? Slides some would call them that are like foam and the always are interested in pecking those to see if they are food, I think it's the design.

Now if the rooster in the middle really wanted to start something maybe you'd have reason to peck back but kicking a hen is akin to roundhouse kicking an unsuspecting toddler in the face. It isn't self defense, it's dropping a nuclear bomb on a homeless person asking for change

Biden dropped out after the primary... Also anyone who says there wasn't a primary is lying. There was a primary in 48 states. And Biden had 87% of the votes. Harris lost because she wasn't a white man. Anyone who thinks if you took 20 Americans and put them in a room that at least 1/20 of them wouldn't refuse to vote or would vote against someone because they were a woman or because they were black is just plain wrong no matter how they try to mask it. Every time gender comes up on Lemmy you see people claiming how toxic it is against women, and the defense is "reddit is worse".... And these are the more accepting platforms supposedly. So when Lemmy, Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, etc users voted.. guess what it was in secret, not a public forum that had to explain their vote and face backlash for. No one knew who they voted for. Trump's backing literally is naming places after and forcing groups into schools to teach children that you can't trust black people being pilots, because you shouldn't trust that they were educated.

Why would they do that? Because they know it helped win them an election, and it will help keep them positions of power

While I wouldn't call it a straight or middle school thing, I would consider it highly toxic to post your relationship issues online instead of discussing them with your spouse and fixing/ending the relationship.

Wasn't it Pius who also worked with the resistance and was a part of a plot to have Hitler assasinated?

Medieval cat

Id guess killed off / habitats destroyed. What little i have read they were commonly misconceived as having a higher population than they do, as most cats are nocturnal and hunt mostly at night staying hidden during much of the day. The Jaguarundi are diurnal, and so they would be seen out and about throughout the day thus making people think we see them all the time, surely there is more. The world population may be as low as 35,000 according to estimates (up to 230k), while living across 4.5 million sq kilometers.

Engineer open-sources DIY radar system that's 95% cheaper than $250,000 commercial offerings, has 20 kilometer range — Moroccan engineer designs Aeris-10 radar, shares it on GitHub

Maybe an island/area looking to set up a small air traffic control center for non commercial airlines? Not sure if the range would be enough, I know nothing about them

I used/use it a lot, became the standard when I was on AIM.

Mostly I feel people use it for tone and switch between the two. Then again I also respond with k too often apparently and have had spouses bring it up to me. "I'm going to pick up hot dog buns on the way home" k is apparently not always the proper response to such things apparently.

K, lol, cool/kool, alright, nice, oh... Apparently make up a lot of what she calls my NPC responses.

It's not that I don't care, it's that there really isn't a reason for me to send a flushed out response while I'm in a rush and or trying to respond at a red light. I'll see them soon, if i thought something else should be picked up at the store when they were there id either say so or call if I thought it warranted a quick discussion.

If I ask do you want tacos, sure is a perfectly valid response, we've shared a bed for 5 years.. if I don't know what you do and don't like on a taco I wasn't paying attention, if you want something you usually wouldn't, then it makes sense to say more

I hadn't seen anything about it but I won't stand for these cats getting away with all these shenanigans when it comes to flights. I've been out here chasing off squirrels howling back at the coyotes to keep them at bay for months. And the ... Wait a ..fn deer... Rahf ruff roof roof roof
