Everyone has problems man. Nothing is a Utopia, but there are better systems. And I get my opinions from articles that I’ve read. They are readily available on search engines and compare and contrast US vs Western Europe, which is what we’re objectively talking about when comparing.

No, I’ve not lived in Europe but my mother’s side of the family is German so I do talk to actual people who live there.

Edit: You only have to wait 3-4 weeks?! Try waiting 7-8 months, bud. That’s to see a general fucking practitioner! Then pay over $100/visit until you meet your deductible with good insurance.

Dude, I’m American and even I know they get more time off, get paternity and maternity leave, can take more vacations, have better transit, pay less in health insurance. They have enough disposable income to do the things we do, but don’t have to worry about the other bullshit as much. Nothing they get is “free”, and they know this, but they don’t have to think twice about using the services.

The Draft. Questions. It’s all the same. He dodges more than the auto manufacturer.

Like Gallagher smashing a watermelon - or…human pumpkin?

My wife and I just fucking laughed so hard and clapped at that.

I have 1B to give to people to spend on evil messaging and research of crap that hurts others.

That 1B is allergic to helping people, fixing systemic issues, and truly making America great by elevating those that actually need it. So I must keep it in my pocketses.

There’s a hole in your mind!

Real ID is a joke anyway. I have an Illinois real ID and it’s just the driver’s license with a star stamped on it, basically. I compared old and new and that was the difference - that stupid star. Other than that, it was just providing all the documentation you would use to get a passport.

Fucking joke.

“Draw a line around the shortest word in this line.”

You can’t draw a line around something. It’s not a line then. Fucking hell.

That shit used to baked into vanilla android.

The Gate I think I was 7-10 at the time? I don’t know how I stumbled on it flipping channels on the TV, but I did and it scared me.

Today? It’s so horribly bad it’s laughable.

To the automatic part, that’s what the bump stocks were about and why the banning. It helped to turn an assault rifle into acting like an automatic weapon by using recoil to bump the stock which the bounce made it rapidly tap the trigger finger and fire much faster.

Many guns are named after people who distributed, produced, or designed them.

So he is a guy named after a gun that was named after a guy.

Totally agree! The drug companies are fucking scum bag shit lords. Hell, I used to work in preclinical pharma testing for 11 years at a Charles River Labs company so I know what goes into a lot of this.

I just worry about someone then taking something else, or getting prescribed another med, without consulting a professional and there is a nasty interaction and now there’s an ER visit or flat out death. I don’t want people dying because they get complacent or make a mistake that could be avoided.

The solution is really holding pharma to the coals, but I live in reality where it won’t happen. So here we are. 😢

Agreed. I know why we’re in the situation. I’m just saying that sometimes it’s still not a good idea to just give anyone autonomy for something as a fix, especially when they do not specialize in it.

Wrong. It’s Turian bone structure.

Stupid.

People diagnose incorrectly a lot, will probably take incorrect amounts, and if sick will take the medicine incorrectly leading to bacteria and viruses with immunity to more drugs.

Just…let the doctors and pharmacists do the work, please? At least they have some training and understand interactions/classes of medicine.

He’s doing his own research
