Horror story

There is a novel "Microserfs" many years back and in it if I recall all the guys at MS drove Ford Taurus because at some point Gates drove one. So all the little serfs wanted to be like him.

‘You are all that matters to me’: White House aide left adoring notes for Trump in ‘private spaces’, new book reveals

He could have finished Clinton's term then had two more consecutive terms. How different could it have been to have Gore do something about climate change for 10 years?

That would have been around the time where it could have actually been possible to stop the world temp from going up 1-2 degrees, now 1-2 degrees is almost guaranteed and 3-4 might happen.

Stanford scientists regrow lost cartilage and reverse arthritis in major breakthrough

Reply in thread

Yeah my dad was discussing MAID (medically assisted death) recently, he is in his late 70s.

He lost his heel in a motorcycle accident in the 1970s and they butchered up his right inner thing taking a chunk out and putting it on his foot. So now both his legs are in constant pain and he spends most of his day high as a kite to deal with the pain. He can barely walk anymore. He got through cancer a few years back which made matters worse and he lost his sense of taste so he gets to be in pain all day and not taste anything enjoyable.

Nothing medical is going to improve his life drastically so if MAID is what he wants then I will support him.

Difficulty level impossible

Zionists must create greater Israel.

Jewish zionists do it so they have more land as expansionist colonies must expand.

Christian zionists to it because they want all the Jews there so that the world can end according to their crazy ass prophecies.

why is it frowned upon to describe a person according to appearance and ethnic background?

Send them a link to a game of guess who and ask them how you are supposed to figure out the coworker without using descriptive words.

If they want to hard make your boss describe them to you instead of you describing them so it is their problem not yours

You: hey boss I worked with a person do you know who I'm talking about?

Boss: there are three people here.

You: tell me about them so I can tell you who it was.

Supermarkets destroy food if it doesn't sell. We can always feed the world. We just don't.

To my shame I worked at a supermarket bakery in my early 20s I would empty all the bulk bins into a garbage bin and into the dumpster every night. I complained multiple times that it could be bagged and donated, they relented and let me pack up expired prebagged breads to a shelter but never the bulk stuff.

I would at least eat as much as I could as I threw it out but there was only so much I could do.

They are represented exactly the same amount in hell as every other languages speakers. Zero

Hebrew speakers currently are overrepresented in the genocidal fascists group in the real world and that is the only reality we need to worry about not the various fictions of the world.

Harry Enten Sends Democrats Midterm Warning: What Polls Show

Reply in thread

Even if they have enough Dems in theory then the conservative Democrats have doubts or reservations about voting for something so Manchin or Sinema get in the way. If somehow they get past those ratfuckers then the Parliamentarian can step in to rain on the progressive parade.

The Dems always have something up their sleeve to keep them from doing things they don't really want to do. I wouldn't put it past them to get in power and just yell Squirrel as an excuse to not bring in policies that have 80-90% approval across all parties.

FIFA proposing Israel vs. Palestine match for opener of youth football festival

He understands the important part of international sporting events... Grift and bribery, the only thing that really matters.

I bet they are really sad that it is split over three countries that didn't need to spend billions on building new stadiums. They probably have a big hand in the construction contracts of stadiums for World Cup and this time they didn't have slave built stadiums in Qatar to funnel money out of.

Finally had my eyes checked after nearly 8 years

Many years ago I went to get my eyes rechecked and they quoted me around $300 for the glasses. I found a place online and got 3 pairs for just over $100 and that was years ago.

I have had laser eye surgery since then and don't need them anymore but I would say cut out the middle men and buy online.

Also get your prescription from the optometrist and make sure they give you your Pupil Distance. It is important for making sure that the proper focal point is centered. Some optometrists will skip putting that measurement on so you will get glasses from them. Though iit can be measured with help from a friend and a ruler.

As an aside I suggest you put in a complaint to the Costco, they usually take pride in having great employees that stick around long term so they would probably want to move employees along if they give bad service.

Forgot to add the site I used it was goggles4u.com
