Isn’t it super normal to move and turn while sleeping? Is sleeping on the left side so much better that doing it for the first hour only has a noticeable impact? Or do you also need a weighted blanked to keep you in place for it to have that effect?
Sounds like pseudoscience to me.
Toasters. Specifically the Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster, with the tag line “Automatic Beyond Belief!”. There is a fan site (https://automaticbeyondbelief.org/, excellent url). Like, what other appliance line has a fan site? Surely no modern day toaster!
But of course I first heard about it from Technology Connections video.
It might just be my personal experience, but I am German and my personal birth rate has been steady all my life.
To add anything of substance here, there’s a good ol Kurzgesagt video on this. TLDW: Global phenomenon, hard to predict, just investing more money on parents and their needs has been tried and did not really work. Governments should still try to ease the burden of new parents because Jesus Christ they have it hard enough.
Somewhere else I heard that maybe our pessimistic look at the future is to blame and we should try to spread optimism more (or lay the foundation for a better future so people can actually be optimistic), but that’s less well researched. Not least because optimism isn’t easily quantifiable.
I have no reason to believe Germany’s government condemns Israel’s actions right now, and the way they always point out its right to defend itself, I suspect they actively condone them…
Let the language which is without sin cast the first stone.
I like the Rock of Ages 2&3 soundtracks myself. Classic music transformed into video game ost is fun.
Also works for the other kind of courting.
Rice Burritos
3 minutes of vegetable peeling while the water starts to boil, 10 minutes of unsupervised boiling, maybe 5 minutes stirring. You only need to clean 1 pot, and it’s cheap.
There are like 4 days a year everyone just puts their old sofas, broken TVs and other junk outside to be collected by a garbage truck the next day. As this furniture is mostly usable, people in white vans go around to collect the most valuable stuff, which makes up most of the traffic in villages on those days and causes old people to complain about Polish immigrants.
The village children also have a look around if the weather is nice. Village adults don’t, not because they are above it, but since there is a genuine risk a neighbour you’ve known for decades will sue you for stealing; the garbage does belong to them still as the courts have determined.
Edit: Sorry for forgetting the most important part.
Maybe he’s into crazy girls and it was a compliment? 😏
I’ll assume since I am someone else, but kernel level anti-cheat is basically Spyware, or at least a privacy concern.
As implied in my first comment, I’m luckily not a US citizen. So asking where my line would be is a bit weird.
But when there is a better option with any chance of winning, they would have my vote. But since the Palestinian Genocide is happening either way I’d vote this election, Dems it is to reduce the suffering inside the USA. Support is, to me, something different, and I don’t think I would support the dems right now.
The Democrats and Republicans are both 99% Hitler, ergo voting for either is voting for the greater evil.
If you are a woman, POC or queer, it is usually really easy to choose a lesser evil here (or idk, a neo-nazi, as I framed this as why a non-voter might also help the democrats). Most people can choose a lesser evil, and they help the greater one by not voting/voting 3rd party. If you literally can’t see a difference, that’s fine, but this is the reason why most people are better of not voting 3rd party right now.
If the Democrats lose left wing voters by pushing rightward and lose, are they going to go even further right?
Yup, they can make that decision. Maybe they think appealing to the block of Republicans is easier, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they do considering that’s where their money is and how much they need to change to appeal to the left.
(…) may shift leftward to regain lost votes. Unconditionally supporting the Democrats only furthers their genocidal tendencies.
So, you don’t know how it would help. Either the Democrats stay in Power and won’t change, or the Republicans gain power and nothing will change until 2028 (or later, depending how project 2025 comes along). Hoping that they may change on Palestine is foolish. You are correct about the support, it should never be unconditional.
By your logic, Libertarians and Non-Voters are also helping Trump.
Whomever they think is the bigger evil, they help by not voting for the lesser evil. For why, see my first comment.
Depends on where they lost their votes from.
Disagree.
Kamala and Trump are united on Gaza, voting for either will only result in more death and destruction.
And voting for neither will also result in more death and destruction. You are refusing to explain how your choice would help, and I can make some damning assumptions why.
Leftists hate the dems and the reps, but now you are saying they help Trump by voting for their interests.
Correct. You seem to know all about the voting system, I don’t need to explain to you why that is.
If the Dems lose votes to Leftists, and they wish to regain those votes, they have to move leftward. They won’t ever be Socialist, correct, but they move to where they lose votes.
They will move in the direction they think they can get more votes. The past has shown that even when they lose, they prefer to move “center” rather than left.
No, voting for genocide is not the best for Palestinian Genocide, unless you support the Genocide.
Please explain how voting for your alternative 3rd party candidate, sitting at 0.3% at the polls if I’m not mistaken, will help.
The part of them fiercely fighting any 3rd party was a good point though. Still, the Momentum isn’t there.
Voting 3rd party is not and will not lead to revolution.
Nothing I said implies Democrats are entitled to any votes, just basic statements about options and their outcomes.
Because of the terrible voting system, all those voting for Jill Stein will not affect the outcome. Voting 3rd party is barely better than not voting at all. If they would have otherwise preferred the Democrats, this helps Trump.
I also don’t think voting 3rd party will make Democrats adopt more leftist policies, as that risks losing centrist voters and their big business sponsors they rely on.
It’s a shame, but the best vote is one for Harris. Even when it comes to the Palestinian Genocide. If you want more 3rd party options, try to win a local election first and build momentum from there, don’t start with nothing 6 months before and try to win the federal election from there.
Well, that’s a new thought. Donating blood is necessary, so we get paid by the Red Cross to do it, in money or a small meal. But the Red Cross then immediately upsells that blood to the hospitals that need it. In a sense, we are exploited workers without a contract.
The real reason donating blood is unethical is because we cannot unionize.
I try my best Michelle, but I am literally not allowed to vote in US elections.
The ones I am allowed to participate in however do benefit in fucking over US-Politicians at least somewhat.
