I tried to go to the recent protest but my job made it impossible. Sadge.

Could you give a source? I can't find ANY mention of stevia being "petroleum based".

Afaik Stevia is entirely produced from the shrub.

Apparently it took heavy inspiration from the book Where's Wallace? by Hilary Knight, so we can all be wrong. Wallace was a red headed orangutan so IMO a much better search and find reward than that sneaky fuck Waldo/Wally.

For anyone who is missing the irony.

Yeah, this... this has to be a fever dream.

You are either a troll or willfully detached from the human experience.

Good luck finding happiness.

The assumption would be post war the support would be reconciled similar to the way we handled Lend-Lease. Most of the aid would not be recovered but a portion would over a VERY long time. The US would basically have Ukraine paying interest forever while making trade deals to reduce the principle. All of them s was a play by Zelensky to kiss the ring and secure continued support. Trump just showed the world how much of a Russian ASSet he is, again.

It's real, but it's just a rehash of a similar comment that has been shared by other creators.

Apparently there are protests planned at every US state capitol building today.

I really hope you are wrong.

That commenter is definitely toxic but I think they are right here by definition.

It's clear that the US has absolute unlimited control within the area. Cuba cannot and/or will not contest the US within that area.

Conservatives painted DEI as providing Equity in a discriminatory way.

IE: We are hiring 100 people; we have set a goal to hire 30 people of color, 20 neurodivergent people, 20 queer folk, and 10 Women but we are NOT setting a goal for Straight White Men.

The narrative has been made that Straight White Men are being excluded from graduate programs because these quotas must be filled.

In this extreme example it looks pretty bad, because we should be striving to hire and place people based on talent and reliability alone.

It is a branding issue. The outrage has nothing to do with what DEI really is but focuses on a rare example that does the opposite of what it was designed to do.

Another example of how the Truth™ is being used to divide us.

A little context; This began as American First Nations medical tech. Tobacco smoke enemas were used to treat a variety of conditions, including constipation, bowel obstruction, and colic. They eventually abandoned this because of the toxicity of nicotine. The drowning bit was a last resort treatment. We don't have any info on it ever working. As far as old medicine goes this isn't the biggest offender.
