me giving an eight minute answer about how there is no creature in the karmic cycle of rebirth more deserving of contempt, devoid of the most basic essential life force that binds all other creatures on earth, wouldn’t spit on if on fire, continued failure to be devoured by locusts basically single-handedly disproving the existence of a just creator, etc.

damn hopefully someday we can just cut out the whole experience of watching a movie and just drink a smoothie that makes us melancholy. save a ton of time for sitting on the couch blankly staring at the leech blender we replaced the TV with
teleport, size manipulation, super smell. i am constantly teleporting into the rectums of famous actresses and experiencing ego death as their farts wash over me and erase all other sensations. i don’t even remember my name or how long I’ve been doing this for. all i know is my mission. i am the fartshifter

what do either the overall crime rate or the proportion of gun crime to all forms of violent crime have to do with any of the claims you made in your original comment? im not replying any further since it seems like you’re just trying to waste my time
yeah uh… im also kind of unsure what OP meant here. there is no direct battery analogue to an LNG tanker because there’s nothing to tank. ships that run partially or entirely on batteries are absolutely a thing, but they’re not doing it in order to move the energy around.
did you get chatgpt to write this? among other claims, you’re wrong that “the vast majority of gun crimes involve illegally obtained firearms, often smuggled in from the US”. in 2022 which was the last time statcan published data, the gun was legally owned in more than half of all cases, and the gun was illegally owned and of American origin in about 5 percent.
i mean, i think it just helps children to emotionally navigate a serious illness, which is something that everyone eventually experiences. if you’re fortunate enough to experience it after you’ve built up some emotional resiliency and coping mechanisms, that’s great, but otherwise it can be really distressing and overwhelming for kids.
it’s possible that I’m misunderstanding here but I think the sepsis diagnosis is from a retrospective review of her file. at the time there was no sepsis diagnosis. they even specifically call out that doctor for having been under review for missing diagnoses in the past
After two hours of IV fluids, one dose of antibiotics, and some Tylenol, Crain’s fever didn’t go down, her pulse remained high, and the fetal heart rate was abnormally fast, medical records show. Hawkins noted that Crain had strep and a urinary tract infection, wrote up a prescription and discharged her.
Hawkins had missed infections before. Eight years earlier, the Texas Medical Board found that he had failed to diagnose appendicitis in one patient and syphilis in another. In the latter case, the board noted that his error “may have contributed to the fetal demise of one of her twins.” The board issued an order to have Hawkins’ medical practice monitored; the order was lifted two years later. (Hawkins did not respond to several attempts to reach him.)
the second ER did not diagnose her with sepsis, they diagnosed her with strep throat and a UTI. some portion of responsibility IMO lies with that OB-GYN for screwing up that diagnosis, although i understand the larger point of the article seems to be that doctors are reluctant to diagnose or treat really any condition in pregnant women for fear of getting legally crushed by the state
ive always imagined that test audiences believed it to be a prosthetic and therefore a deliberate creative choice by lars von trier. which is fucking hilarious, because it so thoroughly cheapens the serious arthouse themes he was playing with of like sex and nature and depression if you believe another theme he wanted to showcase was “and the guy has an absolutely monstrous hog”
ok, can I see the data?
really? i loved it. it’s been a while since i watched it but here are some of the things i liked (spoilers ahead)
i overall just appreciate that the film had some ambition to try to do something weird and I think for the most part it was successful. and, not to nitpick your nitpick but i think they establish that everyone on the expedition had military experience
the people we should be concerned about getting their hands on this data are not like, goateed hackers. they’re banks, insurance companies, recruiters. those are some pretty powerful lobbies
the good news is it’s very easy to get some practice
look, I read the Economist every time I’m at my dentist’s office, so I’m obviously a little bit ahead of the curve in terms of political literacy, but I’m not sure I understand what this comic is trying to say, given that the events it depicts did not literally happen. could someone explain what this comic means? it would be a great help.
unrelatedly, but just as urgently, is there anyone who is an expert in going to the bathroom? I got to the part where my pants are fully pulled down around my ankles, but I’m not sure how to sit if I have to make both doodie and weewee. I’m guessing I face the tank? thanks in advance.
they’re not really doing this, are they? i assumed it was a clickbait outrage farm concept that would never see the light of day
i have this one and its pretty satisfying https://muji.ca/products/manual-paper-shredder
