I hadn’t thought about it, but that would truly be the ideal situation. Imagine going to the store and all the eggs are from local’s extra stock. I know it couldn’t currently happen that way based on what regulations allow, but I can certainly imagine.
The fact that the upfront cost can be prohibitive and actual effort is involved but people are still doing it should tell you just how bad things have gotten. Plus, the more people that do it, the more they can teach others and help them out. I know people who got chickens after a neighbor got chickens and they saw how beneficial it was and if their neighbors can do it they certainly could as well.
They may actually be hurting themselves in the long run. The amount of people I know that have decided to get chickens since the pandemic has increased far more than I ever expected it would. And if you’ve ever had your own chickens before, you know that there’s plenty to go around and you share with friends and neighbors. So not only are they permanently losing more customers to people getting chickens, they’re also losing customers to friends of people that have chickens. Plus all these people are getting much higher quality eggs from happy chickens, so why would they ever go back? I know not everyone can, but, the more people that start raising chickens the better!
The issue here is that there isn’t one. If someone rolled out an update to a dishwasher that broke it and they offered to replace it with something that is not the same size, you would be pretty unhappy with how it fits in your kitchen. If they replace my phone, it will be far too large for me. I accepted the battery swap for this reason. I’m hoping small phones will make a comeback, but I’m skeptical.
I don’t want my phone replaced. I like my phone the way it is. They don’t sell phones this small anymore and my small hands need it. Also it’s fucking garbage that the standard is to get a new phone every 2 years. It’s incredibly wasteful especially when you consider that people don’t just trash their computers after 2 years. My 4A is only 4 years old and going strong! Here’s to hopefully a few more years!
This is why I think it’s important to stoop to their level and start spreading childish rumors about them.
✔️ Not inciting violence
✔️ Not illegal
✔️ Not significant enough for them to claim defamation
✔️ Makes them far too angry for how petty it is on account of their extremely low emotional intelligence
For example: JD Vance only eats the cat food part of lucky charms pass it on
Another example: JD Vance says he’s sorry after cumming pass it on
Just one more for good measure: JD Vance puts his cast iron in the dishwasher pass it on

For anyone that needs this information, you can (currently) order abortion medicine (mifepristone and misoprostol) online in any state. I did it a few days ago and it was stupid easy to do. I’m not pregnant, but I wanted to order some as a just-in-case for myself or others.
The Plan C website has a great list of websites you can order from if you’re not pregnant. It costs about $150 and some offer financial assistance if you need it. But please do it NOW while you still can.
I ordered one from Aid access and one from safe choice. Both asked a few questions that didn’t ask for personal information or ID. They mostly just need an email, address to send it, and a credit/debit card to pay.
Some clarifications from other posters that may be helpful: this medication will keep up to 2 years when stored in a cool dry place. This is also different than plan B. Plan B is usable up to 120 hours after sex and does not require prescription. Where as mifepristone and misoprostol require a prescription (obtainable through these sites) and are usable up to 13 weeks of gestation. You may be able to obtain them at your local pharmacy with a prescription in a legal state (for now).
Good luck out there everyone.
If they nab children of immigrants, their parents will have to show up to get them. Then they can boot the whole family out of the country. Disgusting? Yes.
I think what you’re referring to is Plan B medication which is only useful for the first 120 hours after sex and doesn’t require a prescription. mifepristone and misoprostol require a prescription which you can get through these sites and they are usable up to 13 weeks of gestation. You likely can still get it at any pharmacy in a legal state. But ordering online not only allows for easy access to prescription, but also circumvents laws preventing sale in particular states. And yes that means you could potentially be prosecuted if caught, but people should still know their options. I for one would rather live through a miscarriage and do time than to die under legal means.
According to both websites I bought from, the shelf life is 2 years.

Plan B (what I assume you ordered, but I could be wrong) does not require a prescription and is limited in use up to 120 hours after sex. mifepristone and misoprostol require a prescription (given on these websites) and are usable up to 13 weeks of gestation. I have not found these on Amazon, but perhaps they are available on Amazon in other states?

On the one hand, we already do it to cigarettes so it makes sense to do it to alcohol as well. On the other hand, why aren’t we labeling other items that have a cancer risk like floss or nonstick pans or a plethora of other items? Sometimes I see the little state of California warning sticker, but I know loads more stuff should be labeled that aren’t.
The US is quite a large land mass and thus has the ability to produce almost every kind of alcohol you can think of. Some areas are better for growing grains, and others are better for growing grapes, etc. As someone who enjoys mixology as a hobby, I’d say my shelf is about 70% US made liquors and the rest are imported. Most of the wine I’ve come across has been made in California. And ever since craft brewing had a moment, all the beer me and my friends drink are US made as well and those can get pretty hefty if you drink things like stouts. I usually just assume that every country has found a way to make at least one type of high proof product out of “necessity” at one point in time.
Definitely didn’t expect Illinois to be on that list. Hopefully Pritzker will do something about it? Only time will tell.
Sounds a lot like med school, or the lady who sewed to cancel student loan forgiveness. People suck.
Most cars come equipped with a sim card these days and there’s lots of news about how car companies are sending data about your driving habits to insurance providers. So um… Yeah.
I dream of a day when the locker scene from Starship Troopers becomes reality and men and women who fight alongside one another can share a locker room without complication. Or like… Maybe world piece would be cool too and people wouldn’t have to fight at all?
I really enjoyed this video, but one thing bugs me a bit. Why does he specifically call attention to Tesla as a brand and not Luminar? If he’s trying to be scientific about the technology, it should be “lidar vs imaging”. Or if he does want to call out brands, “Luminar vs Tesla”. Not that I’m defending Tesla, but this just seems weird to me when his videos are typically more educational.
