When I went off caffeine, it took me down with 3 days of flu like symptoms and headaches. Grouchy asshole is an understatement. I was drinking 2 coffees a day, I can’t imagine.

Looks like the studies back you up. Also explains why there is so much sugar in children’s foods. It says in the article that it’s because it helps you avoid poison, but aren’t some poisons sweet?
In spite of these reductions, however, children’s intake of sugar remains higher than that recommended by health organizations worldwide. In contrast to sweet taste, children dislike and reject bitter taste, which protects them from ingesting poisons. Although variation in bitter taste receptor genes such as TAS2R38 accounts for people’s marked differences in perceptions of the same bitter-tasting compounds, basic research revealed that these genotype-phenotype relationships are modified with age, with children of the same genotype being more bitter sensitive than adults and the changeover occurring during mid adolescence.
In this article, we review findings from basic, experimental research in children that suggest the liking of sweet taste and the dislike of bitter taste are not solely a product of modern-day technology and advertising, but are reflective of children’s basic biology.
- Comment on LPT: Go get a shot, now. 1 week ago:
I guess they’re not authorizing the licensure of them, so that’s why it’s so tentative. He’s doing the trump vague thing, so you can’t go after him directly and then slowly take things away.
The rise in COVID comes as the Trump administration has delayed the rollout of the updated vaccine for the fall. Last year, the federal government had fully green-lighted the annual reformulation of the vaccine by June, in time for a rollout that began in September.
This year, however, the Department of Health and Human Services led by vaccine skeptic Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has in effect delayed the rollout of this fall’s COVID shot.
“Updated COVID-19 vaccines have been delayed this year due to federal policy changes, and we are awaiting [Food and Drug Administration] licensure of this season’s products,” the L.A. County Department of Public Health said in a statement to The Times. “This means availability in September may be later than what people experienced last fall.”
The California Department of Public Health also warned that because the federal government hasn’t made decisions on licensure approvals and recommendations, “availability and timing of specific COVID-19 vaccine products may be more limited and occur on a later schedule.”

Just like anything else, there are shady doctors, nurses, etc. and there are shady alternative medicine people. The only reason pharma aren’t using herbs and such is because they can’t patent them. It’s easier to make them consistent as well. I could give you a shit ton of articles on both sides of this discussion.
The MD’s aren’t even being trained to help people anymore. They’re being trained to survive med school and their student loans. Once they get experience, they’re trained how to deal with insurance companies.
Our healthcare is in a world of hurt so start looking inward first and fix that.

Most of them are trolls. Some are cantankerous normal people, but most are probably getting paid or are bots. Anger gets engagement and division helps Russia, China, etc. It’s a win-win for reddit.

I can’t find any other stories about this, so we can’t confirm what the police did or didn’t do, but I’m suspecting they beat the shit out of him. The LA police are known to beat or shoot first and ask questions later. We’ll have to wait for more information from his people.
- Comment on Rapper Lil Nas X hospitalized in LA for possible overdose: TMZ 1 week ago:
Yes, it was an overdose after he charged at them and then needed to go to the hospital. Sorry man, I think we need more info. He was probably on many drugs, charged the police and then they beat this crap out of him.
- Comment on Rapper Lil Nas X hospitalized in LA for possible overdose: TMZ 1 week ago:
Not an overdose:
Several people in the area reported the incident to police.
Responding officers with the Los Angeles Police Department contacted Nas, who reportedly charged at them. He was taken into custody, TMZ reports.
Officers told paramedics Nas was suffering from a possible overdose, and he was taken to the hospital.

I looked it up:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
So you have to believe that he existed, but not follow his teachings cuz they’re too woke. Got it.

So Google wants to be the Age Verification go-to, so they can sell that service to other companies. No one wants it, so they shaped laws to force it in the form of “protecting the children.” So UK politicians were already bought out, US and Canada are next.

lmao, nah. Wasn’t she the one that took social services? Libertarians can go kick rocks.
In the 1960s and 1970s, Rand developed and promoted her Objectivist philosophy through nonfiction and speeches,[98][99] including annual lectures at the Ford Hall Forum.[100] In answers to audience questions, she took controversial stances on political and social issues. These included supporting abortion rights,[101] opposing the Vietnam War and the military draft (but condemning many draft dodgers as “bums”),[102][103] supporting Israel in the Yom Kippur War of 1973 against a coalition of Arab nations as “civilized men fighting savages”,[104][105] claiming European colonists had the right to invade and take land inhabited by American Indians,[105][106] and calling homosexuality “immoral” and “disgusting”, despite advocating the repeal of all laws concerning it.[107] She endorsed several Republican candidates for president of the United States, most strongly Barry Goldwater in 1964.[108][109]

The US is taking a cut from chip sales to China - what does it mean?
Unusual. Quid pro quo. Unprecedented.
That is some of the reaction to news that two of the world’s tech giants will pay the US government 15% of their revenue from selling certain advanced chips to China. Industry watchers, former government advisers, policy makers and trade experts have been giving their views on the deal.
The news comes mere months after the Trump administration banned the sale of these chips to China, citing national security concerns.
That ban was lifted in mid-July. And now it seems the US government will go a step further - becoming a part of these American firms’ business with China.
And critics argue that is both confusing and worrying.

No, I’m not saying it’s a guess. I’m saying all the evidence points to the Big Bang Theory as correct right now and we will have faith in that theory unless it changes or more information comes in.

Why are you so angry and judgemental about this. You need to have faith in a theory to explore it, yes? If you didn’t, you would let it go. I’m saying faith and theories are similar, if not the same.
