• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Push to eliminate sales tax on food and groceries in Missouri runs into resistance⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  No. There is nuance to the tax cut and tax levy argument. Circumstances matter. Cutting taxes on groceries would immediately lower food prices for everyone, the poor included.

  Everybody sharts

  I remember she was nude in Blue Lagoon and she was 14 or 15 at the time. It was a scandal.

  Also, Woody Allen? Guess everyone knew he was a creep all the way back then.

  Most people couldn’t afford that. But everyone had a living room and people would come over. Everyone had a grill and people would come over. Most people had kids and kids would come over.

  Life was much more real life social.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alabama is forcing incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s. Unionizing is illegal. The state takes 40% of wages.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The 13th Amendment allows for forced labor in prisons. This is how Trump and the GOP will reinstitute slavery in the USA.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ICE agents attempt to arrest US Citizen in St Peter, Minnesota⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You have a constitutional right to film from a safe distance while on public land like sidewalks, etc. ICE is breaking the law wholesale by targeting citizens exercising their 1st Amendment rights.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are americans taking health advice from a former heroin addict ?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Uh huh. Apply for a security clearance sometime and see how far they sniff up your ass before you’re granted access to that scif you need to do your job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are americans taking health advice from a former heroin addict ?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t get a security clearance with a history of narcotics addiction. NIR can you join the military. Because the addiction compromises you and your judgement.

  There is no such thing as a ‘former addict’.

  Is Overleaf an Interleaf clone? My lord that’s ancient.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if portals are invented, will I be able to eat out myself?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One possible interpretation is that OP intends a three course meal, eaten from the wrong end, as soon as teleportation portals are invented.

  I think OP is using us to develop her secret restaurant idea!

  I’m old. This is the same sun we always had. The sun did not change color. Your friend is delusional.

  Try to find the movie Parents. It’s almost impossible. Eating Raoul too.
