This dude has evangelicals in his base and mimes a blow job days before the election and he still might win. We live in interesting times.

He is using a tactic here where he knows 100% that something is not going to happen so he calls for it in an attempt to divert blame and appear virtuous.

Solar is very expensive upfront cost and requires upgraded infrastructure. Cuba is poor and their infrastructure is old as fuck.

Kinda get the feeling the for-profit medical system is deeply corrupt.

This is a dumb take. A "gifted" kid is literally one who doesn't have to try as hard as the other kids. Busting your ass comes later once you age out of grade school and have to develop personal discipline and systems and that is where most "gifted" kids fail because excelling in education has been so easy for them so far.

Kinda. Trichinosis will eat your eyeballs eventually if allowed to progress far enough.

Lazy. You are now required to clip DS9 together into a Steamed Hams parody and post the video.

Members who support Trump will never hear this story so it won't change their mind.

It's not really making a comment on whether they could have addressed it before it broke the camel's back either. It's simply saying this is the last slight I will take.

If you go through life not ever taking any bs, you definitely will not be able to hold a job. Or function in general really.

This is the first post I've ever heard that peanuts can be poisonous if overeaten, but I know that most tree nuts are. Almonds and Brazil Nuts are high in selenium and can straight up kill you. As few as 6 Brazil Nuts may be enough. Cashews are also slightly poisonous because the fruit they come from is.

One standard jar is 1 pound so she is claiming 1-2 jars per week. That is not unreasonable and I find it highly unlikely it was what destroyed her health. I eat about 1 jar per week.
