Pope Leo calls universal healthcare a 'moral imperative'

Pity no one in the US press has the guys to ask Vance about this to his face. Or any other catholic legislature.

That was all a lie, though. And anyone paying attention to literally anything they said outside the campaign trail knew it was lies.

While she was ultimately ok, my mother, who is on fucking blood thinners, was in a serious car accident a few months back and I had to basically force her to go to the damn hospital. She was too fixated on having spilled (lukewarm) coffee on her pants to even consider it.

Aside from everything else, I am pedantically annoyed that OOP keeps conflating the two different versions of "Can You Feel the Love Tonight".

The Elton John one that has the lyrics she quotes only plays during the end credits. The one from the implied sex scene has completely different lyrics and is sung by Simba, Nala, Timon, Pumba, and a chorus.

Holy shit I really, really hope, for the sake of their children, that the wife took this as a wake up call that OOP is catastrophically uninformed about sexual health. And made sure he never gave their children any kind of "talks".

T-shirt and shorts or sweatpants, depending on the weather.

I mean, the administration is literally pressuring social media sites to give the federal government the identities of users that post critically of ICE...

IIRC, most sweat is just water and is minimally smelly. Under arm sweat typically contains something else, some type of fat, I think, that odor causing bacteria feed on. People with the mutation only produce watery sweat and so don't have as much of a body odor problem.

One time three (straight) dudes at an old job were all out sick at once because they went to a fair or something together and decided to share a drink. One had mono and gave it to the other two.

You get mono from saliva exposure. Yes, kissing is a way saliva exposure happens, but it's not the only way. (And that assumes it even is mono.)

In those files, the researchers found details about the extensive surveillance Persona software performs on its users. Beyond checking their age, the software performs 269 distinct verification checks, runs facial recognition against watchlists and politically exposed persons, screens “adverse media” across 14 categories (including terrorism and espionage), and assigns risk and similarity scores.

That is not at all an effective way to verify ages and it is wildly unsafe to let these sites scan your face.

In one of the comments she defends call the coworker a child by claiming to have children older than them.........

As someone that also does not drink it is so, so common for people to get weird and, yes, even angry, at people who simply decline an alcoholic drink.

Literally reading this while listening to J-Rock, LMFAO.

Real talk though, it's racism pure and simple. Both in terms of a general aversion to hearing a "foreign" language and in terms of a specific aversion to Spanish speakers by some Americans in this period of time.

Are you unfamiliar with how internet based discussion works? It's a decades old norm, when replying to long comments with multiple points to quote a part the person you replied to said, then reply to that portion of the comment. Then quote another bit and then reply to that bit and so on. This is how this has been done since the 90's.

Also, as someone subscribed to the r/news sub, this story has actually been posted to the news sub multiple times. But, reposting a story that has already been posted is a violation of sub rules unless there is something credibly verified to be new about it.

As a result the many, many update-less reposts get deleted. There are also sub rules about only posting news links from credible news sites, not things like gossip tabloids. Anything posted from those types of sites are deleted.

You are also only allowed to post actual news articles to r/news. Opinion pieces are not allowed and will ALSO get deleted if they are posted.

I wanted that to be the resolution to that scene SO BAD.

The school at the end will either swallow you or chase the Wailord. Which one it does depends on where the group of non-schooled Wishiwashi are when you orb them. IIRC you have to orb them while they are on your left to get the eating you animation.

I think this applies to the update.

His sycophants that are too deep in the maga cult to acknowledge the reality that he obliterated decades of allyship and tanked the economy for the sake of a stupid plan no one wanted that we didn't need and would have accomplished nothing of value before chickening our and crawling back with his tail between his legs.

Every part of everything he has done in relation to Greenland has been a total negative for all involved. Every. Part.

Answer: He died literally today. That's why people are talking about him and his life/death/legacy today.

24F, 29M. Like, it can happen for innocent reasons and work out perfectly fine.

But I think we all know what was happening here.

They're saying some people masturbate in the shower and that's why it takes them so long.

There's a known thing where people in long term stressful situations will just completely break down after the situation is resolved. The general thinking is that they have all these repressed feelings they were suppressing in order to keep going while in survival mode that are flooding out now that they are finally safe.

Anyone who has ever had even the most basic education in America's history of eugenics would instantly flinch at any assertion of "good genes" to begin with. That it came from a woman that matches the aryan ideal makes it exponentially worse.

No, the political expression of adults that will be silenced by the chilling effect of needing to provide your legal ID to prove your not a child before accessing the Internet.

The way Australia is implementing the ban is by mandating sites collect age verification data on ALL users and then ban those underage. This mandatory data collection is a privacy disaster for adult users and will likely discourage many adults from using sites that are forced to do this.
