High pH is basic btw. I'm assuming you meant low pH with the reference to soda

My acid reflux has nothing to do with acidic or basic foods, and everything to do with the ratio of fat I've eaten or how many alcoholic drinks I've had in an evening. Beer is about a hundred times less acidic than soda (for reference) and soda doesn't set my reflux off

My point is that human bodies are weird and we react in weird ways to food. That's why we have to trial foods

I'm not sure about that, but the reply a little down that says people will get voluntold to attend if not enough are willing sounds probable. I served under Dubya and had a similar experience. I usually just volunteered for watch when something like that happened lol

The dichotomy of people falling asleep and the guy who thought he'd be so entertained he brought popcorn is wild

Millions of American people with Irish ancestry fly or even have the Irish flag tattooed on themselves. They even flew it in protests and marches last year over how Biden responded to the genocide in Gaza, but I'm sure that's totally different

Maybe you can use a reloadable visa card?

They shouldn't be allowed to use less than lethal rounds. I'd prefer no armed police, but the less than lethal aspect especially makes them emboldened to shoot without any consideration. What goes through someone's head when they shoot a person who made the mistake of falling down? "easy target"?

That woman might be lucky if she survives, and without brain damage, and it really turns my stomach that they didn't have the decency to call for an ambulance

I like to wear them in places with fluorescent lighting, but some people really get uncomfortable with that. Sometimes I imagine they must be feeling the same thing I feel when I need to make eye contact during a long conversation

Fair! I've only taken organic chemistry so far, so that's what I remembered

Some molecules have a rotation that is centered on a chiral carbon atom and is named by the way the other atoms of the molecule rotate. There are some rules to it, but L is levorotatory and means it rotates to the left or counter-clockwise. D is dextrorotatory and spins to the right, or clockwise.

Edit: spelling errors lol

That is something my mother said to me a lot. Along with, "I brought you into this world, and I can take you out of it". It's fucked up, because it's not like anyone chooses to be born. These are not normal things for a parent to say by any means. It's emotional abuse.

You deserve better than that! It's not easy cutting ties with family, but life is a lot easier when you're not dealing with such a toxic, resentful human in your life.

They're not extremely similar to MSI, but you might like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (the band)

These allegations have been around for years, which might be why you're not surprised
