So, maybe when you want to spend a great deal of money and be taken seriously, don’t dress like a putz?
Have you been to the SF Bay Area? There are lots of young people with large amounts of money who only dress in often scruffy casual clothes. Dealers are stupid if they let the way people dress affect the way they treat people.
My apologies if this has already been suggested.
There is a chip shortage because all the capacity is being used to make chips to go in the vaccines!
It's important to recognize that this won't stop abortions: it will stop safe abortions.
My Medicare card arrived in the mail today.
I still have my employment-based insurance, but it has a high deductible, so I only signed up for Part A.

Simply not enough people want to work these days.
.... for the pay rates being offered.
Running Up That Hill hits #8 on the pop charts, Top Gun is the number one movie and finally, we are in a proxy war with Russia. Are we sure it's not 1986 again?
How does one follow the instructions in both of the signs?
This conjunction of signs appears to be quite common.
I wonder how much Russian money is going into right wing media.
We see the right-wing voters parroting Russian propaganda. The Soviets were experts at propaganda and we see it now, with people in the west claiming that things would be better for Ukraine if we didn't support them and that the sanctions are doing nothing.
Then, there is the whole Cambridge Analytica scandal -- again, more ties to Russia.

The car that's in my garage now: an MGA. No wait: E-Type
Assange is no longer there. They kicked him out and he was arrested.
It's not the bitey things that are the problem. The UK has plenty of bats, which are the usual vector around here (SF Bay Area).

"the worst thing you can be on the US social ladder is a white CIS gendered christian male"
Coming from someone who lives in a nice house, that he owns, with a nice car and has owned even nicer cars that are out of reach of most people, that's pretty rich. Is it at the top of the right's victim mentality? I don't know, but it must be close.
They also took his passports, disrupting his planned trip to the UK.

It's not Trump I'm defending. What bothers me is the double standard when it comes to public officials. Do you seriously think Feinstein hasn't handed US secrets to the Chinese? Lie cheat and steal on the blue team? All good. Someone else does it?
Dude you AALLLLWAAYYYYSSS do this. Take an ACTUAL incident where you defend the Republicans, and then claim you're not defending them, make up a hypothetical about Democrats to compare it against and then go "what about that, huh?!"
Stop defending him. It's easy to do. You can be a republican and believe he did this, believe he shouldn't have, and believe that he should be treated the same as any other citizen would be. There's no conflict there.
This. Many times over.
Of course he is defending Trump.

You have to watch him on QI. The stories he comes out with are incredible!
Interesting. Thanks.
There are several pages I found that claim that D-I water is also not pure, but I suspect that, in batteries, the impurities remaining in D-I water don't matter.
What contaminants can remain in distilled water?
Recommendations for CPAP machines are to use distilled water, not de-ionized. Until recently, there was a shortage of distilled water. Our supermarket would sell out the same day it was on the shelves.
