The only thing shocking here is that he’s openly admitting he won’t keep his promises.

Try explaining that to the typical Republican party voter, though. All they know is “Obamacare BAD!” because that’s the message that has been pumped into their brains non-stop for the last 10 years. When you actually start explaining the specific things that the ACA established they’ll say, “Oh yeah, that seems like a really good thing, we should do that!” They don’t understand that ACA and Obamacare are the same thing.

We are inundated with these sort of low-information voters who don’t understand how their representatives are literally screwing them over while blaming the other side for all their woes.

But that’s potentially OUR money!!!

Sure sure. As with anything, moderation is key. But for a while there all the “health” influencers were making it out to be a super healthy option and telling people to put it in practically everything.

An emulsion like mayonnaise is not a pure fat, though. It’s a mixture of different fats (both saturated and poly-unsaturated) and water. The mixture is stabilized by emulsifying agents like lecithin that interact with both the fats and the water. When all theses ingredients are blended together with enough force they create an arrangement that is semi-solid at room temperature, yes. But you can’t compare that fairly to a pure fat. If you try, you’re missing the point.

That said, mayo is a great replacement for butter in some situations. Try spreading a little on bread before toasting it in a hot skillet.

Nope. Coconut oil is really high in saturated fat. It’s bad. The fact that it went through a phase where people were considering it a “healthy” fat had actual nutritionists raging.

Until some regulatory agency fines them to the degree that it actually hurts their bottom line, they have no incentive to do better. You can’t appeal to the morality of a corporation. As a business, they only respond to numbers.

I’m sorry to report, Ms. Bryant is not dead. She just hasn’t been very publicly active since the late 90s. Also, her granddaughter came out as gay and got married to her partner a few years ago. It’s a little harder to be publicly self-righteous when even your own family doesn’t conform to your beliefs.

“To Serve Man”

“Moms for Liberty”, I guess?

You’re putting words in my mouth. I was responding directly to your point about how undocumented immigrants can’t vote and nothing else. I feel very bad for the people that are going to be affected directly. Honestly, everyone is going to be affected in some way.

Meat won’t be the only impacted ag industry. A lot of fruits and vegetables still require hand picking and packing. The only product that is largely automated from start to finish is grain. Maybe potatoes, too.

Do they? I’ve been driving Subarus for over 25 years. Up until my newest one (a 2020 model) they all had the gasketed frameless windows, and I never had problems with water leakage. I suppose if the gaskets are old enough or exposed to UV enough they could wear out and need to be replaced. But that seems like a wear and tear issue and very minor in comparison to a potential deathtrap design.

Naturalized immigrants, who do vote, often have family members and/or friends that are now on the chopping block. A lot of them voted for Trump thinking they were getting rid of the “bad” immigrants.

Just to be clear, they can’t legally search your phone at all without either consent or a warrant. There is absolutely no reason you need to hand your phone to a cop during a traffic stop, no matter how it is secured.

Dude didn’t even make it a full month on the force before doing something so needlessly violent that he got fired and charged. Way to pick 'em.

In their minds, this is more akin to deprogramming.

I wouldn’t hold out too much hope. They’re also preparing to purge the military leadership:

Sure, but why not just lead with a negative assertion instead of implying that there’s an open question? The question implies that there is controversy, even when none exists.

Fact Checking RFK Jr’s False Claims About Fluoride

Would be a perfectly acceptable headline.

I don’t know how they’re doing it in Florida. My kid’s high school enacted a new phone policy this fall. Every classroom has either one large plastic storage bin, or smaller ones at each group table. When the kids arrive in class, they put their phones in the bins and they don’t come out again until the end of class. Very simple, and from what I’ve heard from the teachers and students, reasonably effective. If there’s an emergency they can be quickly accessed. Meanwhile, the teachers are all reporting a lot more student-to-student interaction, better attention, and less disruptions.
