Marriage is really about tax filing and its propaganda from the sex and chocolate industries to say otherwise.

I love my wife very much that’s why I want to do intimate things together like fill out form 1040 while cuddling.

Hard disagree on the sports part. Men and women are different, and those differences are huge at competitive levels in most sports. It’s bad that women’s teams and leagues are less respected and lower paid, but the alternative in reality is not an integrated league with both men and women, but one where women don’t have a chance to play professionally.

You can see this historically. Most women’s leagues are a new thing. The world cup started in 1930, the women’s world cup started in 1991. Profesional basketball leagues in the US started in 1935, and the first american women’s league started in 1978, which lasted 3 years. At which point there was no women’s league until the WNBA in 1996.

We have 61 years of football without women’s divisions, and 58 years of basketball to look at. Despite no statutory ban on their participation, women didn’t get a chance to compete without their own segregated league. They are needed.

Every sport is different, and some work fine with intergrated leagues. But for those that are not, a lack of a women’s division is a de-facto ban on half the population. That’s a bad thing.

Its called the fediverse because of all the feds.

I practice safe handling with the handheld barcode scanners at the hardware store checkout.

• Do not point the scanner at anything you do not intend to scan.

• Keep your finger away from the trigger until you’re ready to scan.

• Be aware of your surroundings including what is behind your target.

I would extend it to any gunlike, or vaguely gun shaped object, even those that cannot cause harm. Don’t become complacent with safety practices even when it doesn’t matter.

Its important to follow evidence based medicine rather than eminence based medicine. Respected organizations get it wrong sometimes, in fact being wrong is an important part of the research process.

Cutting edge research is research into areas that are not well studied. Future studies will the confirm or refute those findings. It’s only when enough research has been done, and the field is no longer cutting edge, that we can really be certain of the results.

The gold standard for evidence are meta analyses which look at the totality of research on the topic. They will look at every study and trial done and draw conclusions on that basis. If one of those says something, its probably true and you should trust it.

I should remind you that the paper that started the modern anti-vaccine movement was published in The Lancet, one of the most respected British medical journals. A fraudstser, con artist, and then licenced doctor tried to cash in on the reputation of his employer and status. The result is the persistent lie that vaccines cause autism that we are still dealing with today over 25 years later.

You have to learn levels of evidence and analyse information on a case by case basis. Eminence counts for little. There are no shortcuts.

Now the E pills are blue, thus ruining the metaphor, another crime big pharma must answer for.

I’m more concerned about the transfer point.

I don’t think this was illegal under US law. Congress gave the president the power to unilaterally deploy the military pretty much anywhere during george bush’s war in Iraq. Congress has to review the deployment afterwards and can stop it from continuing. Congress gave bush, and every subsequent president the power to do exactly what happened.

The US doesn’t do formal declarations of war anymore. WWII was the last time that happened. Congress authorized military operations without formal declarations many times since. Presidents to this day have been continuing to use the 2001 antiterrorism authorization to strike wherever they want. Obama and Biden did it too, they just didn’t do anything as brazen as kidnapping a president.

The military planned the strikes. You can’t kidnap a head of state in a single evening without a laying a lot of groundwork. The US has a history of backing coups in South America, and they’ve been building a case for war against Venezuela for over a decade. This was within standard practice for the US military.

This, and most of trumps other actions should be illegal. But those who made and enforced the laws since the start of the millennium have all been collaborators.

All bees are female, except the drones which are only grown when needed.

You probably mean the PineNote, the 10 inch eink tablet. Pinetab is a normal tablet with a lcd screen.

Capitalism is the best system to live in when the owning class has a genuine fear of a communist revolution.

PETA’s only goal is attention. Does this help their cause? Yes, because we’re here talking about them from their marketing.

That’s the intent behind most AI in marketing. They intentionally make it obvious so you get angry and talk about their ads. The goal is attention.

Autonomous cars with couplers and guide rails is the most effective implementation.

Its not even the seal, its plausible to have text on a seal, but its far better to put a pinniped without text on the flag instead.
