Need to remember that with grandparents in particular, he has a skewed view. He was raised by the parents of his drug addict mom, he doesn't have the "normal" frame of reference and may not realize that ALL grandparents are generally expected to (and most want to, in my experience) help with their grandchildren if they can.

It's not that it makes you fall, it's just a non-lever. If you sit on your ass plant your feet flat, then try and pull on your ankles to help yourself up, you'll get the same effect where it's actively a hindrance to getting up.

Because it's solely an "issue" that exists to stoke nationalistic thought in the populace. It's propaganda

Bruh, what did the coolest Beatle do to you?

I mean it's not so much "had been" as it just is, since he's currently a senator.

He's also the one of the 2 who wouldn't be shot as a bipartisan agreement. Fuck Sinema with a rake sideways.

I think it's those 34 felonies that don't matter tho. We allow felons to run for a very good reason and it's pretty big insurance that a wannabe dictator can't just achieve full takeover by having all his opponents convicted of crimes.

Age on the other hand... Even the healthiest 80yo can go on a sudden decline.

I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.

Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.

The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as "we'll just handle it") plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.

Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.

When someone says their burritos won't stay shut I immediately know that they don't know what they're doing.

So the importance here is it seems they've found a way to trigger the Tun state that make tardigrades tough (and which outside they very much are not) which would allow more consistent experiment design around tuns

Of all the games to comment this on, BG3 is one game that is justified at full price for the sheer density of it, and all of it interesting. From day one they were hotfixing and it's never run badly, just not perfectly optimized.

I get gaming on a budget but this comment really sounds like hate trying to say it doesn't deserve full price.

Not quite, the vaccine is only part of it. The Milwaukee Protocol involves putting the patient into a coma and dropping their body temp so low that the virus can't spread (should note that low core temps are why marsupials like opossums are damn near immune) because once symptoms are showing it's actively turning your brain to mush. Between the virus already being present and the coma, brain damage is basically guaranteed despite survival.

Iirc only 29 people recorded as surviving. We should note that rabies has a written record going back to the start of writing. 29, in 4 millennia.

Rabies is scary as fuck y'all. You can get this shit from getting an organ transplant from someone who never knew they were infected after being bitten by a bat while camping last year.
