I don’t think I knew baklava had nuts in it back when I was 17.
An epi-pen costs $750. The nurse would have called an ambulance, and an ambulance ride and ER visit is going to be about $5000. Trying to avoid that kind of debt is not unreasonable.
She didn’t suffer from a nut allergy. She suffered from untreated Luigi-deficiency.

Thank you for that eloquent demonstration of my thesis, nanocock.
There appears to be a lack of “centrist”, non-political, or right-wing voices (and I don’t mean extreme MAGA-type views, but rather more moderate conservative positions).

Men don’t have a problem with feminism. Micropeners have a problem with feminism.

The American healthcare system kills people all day long. But, it’s not a public function; it’s not a component of the state. It is a private industry. Yes, it practices voluntary manslaughter for profit, but no, it’s not eugenics.
The state is not involved in your decision to not have ginger kids. Your decision not to have ginger kids is not eugenics.
The state providing incentives for behavior is a mandate. The state providing incentives for not having ginger kids is eugenics. Not “subtle eugenics”. Not “planned breeding”. Eugenics.
If your decision to abort is because the fetus will be a redhead, that’s “planned breeding”, not “eugenics”.
The sine qua non of eugenics is a state mandate.
Alternatively, it’s an incredibly simple question, with an incredibly simple answer:
It’s your business, not mine. Do what you want for the reasons you want.
I’ve said this many, many times: If abortion is a viable option, it is the only option worthy of consideration.
You only want the west sides of California, Oregon, and Washington, and DC is on the wrong side of the border.
Yeah, this is about the 15th time they’ve done that.
It’s easier and more effective to just get yourself banned.
I think you’re reading more into than I actually said.
Minors are generally prohibited from using powered equipment as employees. They can’t use packaging equipment, cardboard compactors, deep fryers, powered pallet jacks, drills, let alone machining equipment.
The “college-bound peers” I’m talking about are not participating in these vocational programs. If they are working, (which they might not be) their status as minors is effectively limiting them to unskilled trades, like retail and food service.
The kids in these vocational programs are considered students, not employees. Where an AP student is not allowed to use a ladder or a cordless drill at work, the vocational student at their work-study program can use a manual lathe capable of ripping them in two at the torso. They can gain experience with pretty much any equipment in their program that an adult would be allowed to use on the job.
These vocational students are graduating with two years experience in industrial work that the AP students were legally prohibited from performing.
It’s coming around in my area. In my day, the schools partnered with the local colleges for students to get college credit while still in high school.
Now, the local high schools in my area are also partnered with several vocational schools, including automotive, welding, industrial maintenance, veterinary, cosmetology, and about a dozen more. There is a work-study program where students are getting high school credit for on-the-job training from certain local employers.
The kids in these programs are graduating with two years experience in technical fields, while their college-bound peers might have worked a couple years flipping burgers.
TikTok engages in interstate commerce by selling ads on its platform. Congress can’t prevent TikTok’s speech, but they can shut down their business.
I fully support this sign. I think I’ll print up a few dozen copies, and post them at every garden center in the area.
Yes, that’s called “Winter”.
North Korea doesn’t want any of those troops coming home and talking about their time abroad.
