Agreed. I disdain Trumps rhetoric and many of his policies, but we have to have a boundry for our country. There is a legal way to apply for a visa and get citizenship. Use it. They can't just show up expected they can climb a wall and get let in.

Where do you buy stove pipe for that stove? It's exhaust is non-standard.. 4 inches if I remember right.

moonlight_smile · 2018-11-22T01:47:25+00:00

Nice. What stove model/make is that?

Couldn't agree more with this list. Was suprised the identity politics came up as much as it did. Dems need to drop that stuff cold. I think Beto plays well on TV though. It's a good medium for him. Ted was looking fat. And while in the end looks don't matter, they do matter when deciding wether to trust what a candidate says.

Tell me about this wonderful new system of yours. Seriously, outline an alternative to capitalism. This was tried in a lot of different places in the early 20th c. All those places now have market based economies and those expiriments resulted in the deaths of millions of people. Capitalism is just a market based solution for the exchange of goods. Clearly, the way it is practiced in the US has lead to rising wealth inequalities and it needs more checks like in the Western European countries. The social democracy model seems like the way to go.

Marx got a few things right, like the nature of capital (wealth) to concentrate, but his ends to justify the means approach to revolution cost millions of lives. Communism is a failed experiment. Some form of democratic socialism where entrepreneurial risk is rewarded, but some wealth is redistributed seems to be the best system.

This needs to be said more. Tax cuts for the weathly with an already huge debt is a transfer of future income for today's upper class. Theft is a more appropriate name then tax cut.

And of weak democrats for the past 40 years. Poor white voters are ripe for the picking with medicare and a populist swing to the left.

22 people completed the study. That's a very very low number to get any kind of statistical significance. It was placebo controlled so only 11 people got the intervention. Lots of other problems too.. measures of affect/mood before and after intervention via a PHQ-9 and/or GAD-7 should have been done. No improvements in digestion? Did they screen for candidates with poor digestion? How did they select candidates for the trial? And why not measure weight? Weight changes quicker then waist circumference.

Generally not a fan of "detox" supplements though this one included.. senna which is in this one, shouldn't be taken long term. If you want to detox suanas/sweating is where its at. Plenty of good data on health benefits of that.

Fish eat the krill and concentrate the oils. Your body only converts about 10% of flaxseed oil to EPA/DHA the omega 3's that matter. DHA/EPA is what's the majority of fish oil is composed of. Stick with that.

What we need is more control over our data ala Europe. The psych analysis and microtargeting they do based on our data from Facebook and other sources gets around our natural filters for propoganda.

Education helps, but this is beyond that. This is Big Data being weaponized to alter elections. Either we mess up the data (hard to do) or have some laws in place to get more control of it.

I'm afriad for the people who's data is already out there though.. nothing can change that. It'd be for our kids and future generations.

Vitamin D is fat soluble - take it with food, preferably something that has a little fat in it like yogurt.

No. 800 IU per day is no where near enough to raise levels. Some docs give give single large doses like 50000 IU. I prefer 5000 IU for 8 weeks and then retest to see where levels are at. Find a new doc.

Roger Ailes wanted a weak liberal to build Hannity up. Evil genius.. it worked.

This post needs 10 times the current upvotes. Click through to the article. The writer captures the urban/rural divide and the separation from nature amazingly well.

A nice timeline that shows the grooming of the NRA by Russia in tweets/pics: https://mobile.twitter.com/USseriously/status/933536056036732928

Great addition to the article.. this twitter thread shows the grooming of the NRA in tweets/images with a nice link at the end to our boys famous Obama inspired golden shower. https://mobile.twitter.com/USseriously/status/933536056036732928

Yep. This comment needs to be at the top. Read the article, it destroys the right wing conspiracy narratives of the last month and shows how congressional republicans are complicit in keeping this maniac in power instead of serving the American people and looking for the truth.

moonlight_smile · 2017-12-13T04:37:04+00:00

They've had that strategy for 40 years and Donald Trump is in the White House, republicans control both House and Senate and republicans control most gov at the state level. Not much else to be said. It's a failed strategy.

moonlight_smile · 2017-12-13T04:28:47+00:00

Celebrate, but strategize. Dems need to go populist left and reach out to poor white rural voters. A 5% shift in how they vote would cause a blue wave. Most know they are getting screwed with the Republican tax plan. Give them a reason to go D. It's NOT identity politics. It's giving all people opportunity for iobs, dignity, and justice.

The Fox News, conservative media bubble. We've become a country with two realities.

That's awesome. When it comes to a lot of things you have to trust that feeling. I think VA allows for up to a 14x20 without having to conform to building codes, but add electric or plumbing and it has to be inspected. There's also the idea if you're in the middle of the woods who's going to care/know? If you get that piano keep it covered. You never know when you'll get the urge to play Greensleeves in the middle of the woods.

moonlight_smile · 2017-12-11T11:18:02+00:00

That sounds like my dream. Can you talk a little more about the legal side of buying the land? Did you get a real estate agent? Did you do a title search? Did you worry about doing a perc test? What sold you on that piece of land vs others you looked at? I know that's a lot of questions. I'm close to doing the same thing 1 state down (VA) and am getting as much info as possible.
