So pro-life they'd kill you if you questioned their conviction!

That's an easy one to defeat. Just depends on how you define murder. Like no sane person would balk at killing someone in unequivocal self-defense. I would exclude that kind of act from the definition of murder. That gets dicey when you take something like Luigi. Can outright murder be acceptable given a failing system? No one is considering murdering healthcare execs in places with universal healthcare.

I loved every time he used his name. Sounded like he was gently and casually admonishing a child. "What's the answer, Tommy?"

A person's gut bacteria is unique. You could literally eat the exact same thing down to the last molecule as someone else and it would be processed differently between you two.

@lemmy.world @lemmy.ml what are the likely impacts of datacenters on water and on energy supply ? Can someone please enlighten me on this ?
Corporations are not known for paying their fair share and being responsible stewards of the land. Regulations exist because assholes in the past tried to do exactly what is being regulated against. They did this for money regardless of consequences.
Data centers will push for tax breaks that you ultimately pay for with higher taxes. They will become a major customer for the electric company and will negotiate better prices that you will subsidize in higher prices. They will pollute the environment and likely face no repercussions even with a government that is more eco-friendly (this current one (US) is actively eco-hostile).

Positive reinforcement works as well! Gotta give blue states something good to entice fence sitters. For instance, you could annex Minnesota.

That's a common tactic in scams. You want to weed out the actual intelligent people as early as possible lest they disrupt your scam. That's why scam emails tend to have misspellings and grammatical errors. Smarter people instantly ignore that. Dumb people click on through.

'An economic divide that is widening': Almost one third of Americans earning $150,000 a year or more say they're living paycheck to paycheck and many rely on credit cards to close the gap
I'm worried "paycheck to paycheck" is up to the interpretation of the person filing it the survey and how the questions are phrased. Depending on how the questions are worded, they'd possibly include me. My wife and I max our IRAs, 401ks, and HSAs each year. Anything that can be put on the credit card, is (then paid off before any interest can accrue). Like sure if you look at our monthly expenses vs income hitting the bank, we are "paycheck to paycheck". But we could both lose a significant portion of our income and be just fine (provided we scale back retirement savings).
Unless they address that in these articles or surveys, it just sounds like they're trying to get the poor and middle class to just agree to this shared misery while the rich keep fucking the world over.

Why don't public restroom stalls have OPEN/OCCUPIED indicators like porta potties do?
In the US just peer through the crack between the door and the wall. Ensure solid eye contact with the current occupant. Determine how much time they've left. Adjust plan accordingly.
