I should’ve given the full context - when I was a kid watching the news with my parents it was likely late in the Carter administration, or early in Reagan’s. So yeah, fully agreed.

And this is why the Left can’t win.
It’s too obsessed with purity and infighting to focus on the true enemy.
The fascists, on the other hand, focus on the true enemy, then focus on purity and infighting!
I should’ve put a /s at the end. The joke was too good.
The gish gallop has gone mainstream.
What we needed, twenty to forty years ago at the bare minimum, were journalists who were willing to shut that shit down.
I remember being a child watching the news with my parents and seeing an oil company defender accusing the scientists of chasing profits.
Like what the fuck? How did that not end immediately with “And who is currently profiting?” is and always has been beyond me.
…I’m not sure that’s a great example of the gish gallop. Technically.
My point was that we now report the untrue claims rather than saying, from the start, “This candidate said something completely false and not worth repeating.”
For clicks, views, the algorithm, for profit. Nope. It was all to game the system in order to destroy it.
Sorry, this probably isn’t coherent but I’m tired and tipsy, and I’ve chosen to hit save.
Fenn better not be your root password.
You get to grieve there with your family. The weird people leave with your old dog (sob), after everyone gets to give their respects, and then it’s just you and your remaining family.
It’s a funeral. And I’m so lucky to have this because we don’t get charged for that extra service - the boss considers us family for that. The hospital went corporate and that touch won’t last but I appreciate his efforts there for us.
I’m glad you’ve had good experiences in waiting rooms! Mine were mixed and now I honestly never have to deal with any of it because she does.
And I completely agree on the latter. We have that done and it’s so much … better? To have that closure, with all the other pets able to be present and see/smell them and say goodbye.
Just replying again since my wife got home.
She said what actually happens is that when the pet is in the exam room, the customer is brought to the room. I just didn’t know the whole process post-covid. You were right!
Typically the owner is in their car outside so they can still inquire and be brought inside as needed.
That may be a Fear Free clinic. If it isn’t, that certification may be worth them looking into.
My wife works at a certified Fear Free clinic. Customers are only allowed in the building when their animals are being put down. (A greeter goes out to retrieve animals from the cars and return them after the appointment.)
Animals are happy to be there, because it doesn’t smell like fear any longer. There’s no waiting room with other animals. Just the staff who are happy to see them.
It is a real game changer.
First there were truck nuts…
Boneappletea?
The word is candelabra. :)
That guy is full of it.
I don’t know his work but that background makes so much sense because as good as these games are, they are extremely rigid. There is only one plot path to success.
There’s a point in It Takes Two that some people might not want to take the action suggested, but you have to in order to move the story forward.
(Slight spoiler, it involves deliberately attempting to make their daughter cry.)
Well don’t get me wrong, I’m not hoping for that outcome. But I did predict it months ago - nuke Mexico to stop the cartels and migrants and then invade Canada. All built around bullshit, lies, and demonizing truly desperate people.
And there’s the pretext to invade Mexico, or maybe just nuke it.
He goes back to Metropolis.
He owns The Daily Planet.
Damn, he beat the record by 42 seconds. That’s extremely impressive. I’d assumed it would be less then a ten second difference.
Yeah, 2nd edition d&d was far, far more brutal than 5e.
