  1. Now investors are going to start scrutinizing the stock. I wonder if it will get worse from here?

    Bike lanes are only a half measure. I was nearly killed on a sidewalk in a very low traffic neighborhood by a conscientious driver the other day.

  3. Thankfully, Einstein questioned Einstein and so should you.

    I still wonder if black holes are really a thing. The implications are so profound that the realization should change many belief systems and man's overall concept of nature and the philosophies that follow. Where does everything go? Is it just eliminating all of the free space between atoms? If so, that is proof that "reality" is subjective. I don't think anyone really believes that black holes exist.

  5. I think the issue is, that as people learn more about processed food, it is no surprise that plastic would be used as a filler. Most people probably just shrug and pop open another bag.

  6. So the wood dust just absorbs a bunch of fat and makes it look and taste (roughly) like meat?
    (Really it just tastes like salty spices which are so heavy it would be difficult to know what it was.)

  7. What is the word for "shit?"

    Yeah. I thought Americans had a sweet tooth until some Indian friends of mine introduced me to their cuisine. Their sugary after-lunch snacks about made me gag they were so sweet. Literally sugar dipped in sugar sauce.

    Cause life is hard and this stuff has added sugar and pretty packaging.

  10. Agreed. Won't stop anytime soon. Next president? Roll the fucking dice.

  11. "This is India where completely bogus rumors on social media have resulted in angry hordes of people burning or stoning innocents to death."

    Not just India. same exact thing happened in Myanmar. I'm sure it has happened elsewhere but those other countries don't have a good flow of information and facebook undoubtedly keeps a tight lid on it.

  12. What happens when they realize the truth of how poisonous this shit actually is? Plastic is harmless...refined flour and sugar...not so much.

    Fact: chronic disease is the reason for the healthcare crisis. The corruption and inflated prices were hidden because health insurance was paid for mainly by corporations insulating people from the scam.

    Bad food is causing the sharp unmistakable rise in chronic disease that leads to people holding on to life for ten years....at great cost.

    False. The game is weird. HSA high deducible plans are cheaper than traditional caddillac health plans. The deductible is just scary but usually leads to much lower out of pocket costs. You are spreading FUD. I have been using high deductible plans for years in. If you dont have any expenses it is super cheap and if you do they are easy to control.

    Yeah the senior DNC establishment plucked him out of the senate and threw him on stage. Bedore that they paid him no attention and he had no aspirarions of being president. It was pure marketing and really, really sad. I like Obama though...he really cares. He just had no influence in Washington.

    Trump was a right wing blindside bitch slap to the establishment. Dangerous...but they asked for it. Thishas and is happening all over the world because establishment government was and still is way out of touch. If we do not elect middle of the road...all democracies...the only thing we have to look forward to is a smoldering wreck called Earth.

    Obamacare is not the problem. It essentially just implemented sane regulation on insurers...that was the win. The chances of government fixing the healthcare problem is nil since they are the ones causing it in the furst place. We have passed the point of no return. Either make it a single payer government run system or stick to insurance regulation and get their fucking hands out of it. When I look at the medical industry I see someone who acts like their money is going to flow no matter what...which results in poor outcomes and very high costs.

    The thing that is exposing the government pollution in healthcare is the massive rise in chronic disease due to the poisonous food that people are shoving down thier necks. To paraphrase doctor Wahl: people are eating lots and lots of food and starving themselves of nutrition. The death is slow and painful...and costs a bloody fortune.
