    US booze for the most part, remained on the shelves here. To my knowledge it has stayed on the shelves and has been collecting dust.

    @Mik said in Hay Lufin: I've had relatively good experiences with chiropractors. But none of them have ever wanted to get invasive. There are chiropractors and then there are Chiropractors…

    That's a far cry from what chatGPT said. It did acknowledge that in certain contexts it can carry the implication of antisemitism, but that was a corner usage. Perhaps not so corner in certain places in punditry.

    Dropped the car off at the Silver Rock approved car place yesterday. They had given me 4 different places to choose from. There were not highly regarded, but one is considered an above average shop, so I took it there. They need to keep the car for a few days but have started the claims process. Carvana approved extending my guaranteed return date by 3 days to match. The guy at the shop said they’ve had decent success with Silver Rock approving the claims overall, and he only recalled one that he felt Silver Rock hadn’t treated the consumer well… So we will see.

    Yeah - I feel the Canadian ire all the time as someone who travels there frequently. You can't blame them - it's like a family member just turning on you all of sudden for no rhyme or reason (or benefit to anyone).

    I finally got to see my doctor on Monday and showed her the rash on my scrotum. She just ignored me and kept pushing her cart through Costco.

    @Mik said in It's not just Minnesoota: That's ridiculous. How do you know they didn't identify these schemes to begin with or serve as the catalyst that led to it? I think we can know that. Elon would have bragged about it either then or now. Plus the bulk of it was from a pandemic era program that ended in 2022. I’m pretty sure doge was more focused on cutting current and future spending. What backwards-looking investigation they did do was focused on justifying the termination or reduction of ongoing programs.

    Peter Attia interview from back in 2021 with the journalist who really dove into the Andrew Wakefield hoax and the origins of the ‘vaccines cause autism’ memetic complex. He follows the histories of the players involved (Wakefield originally sought out to show measles caused IBD), what they did, what they fabricated, and how they were able to have their initial success. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-peter-attia-drive/id1400828889?i=1000517725939

    It’s hard to say. I haven’t been doing much cycling in the past 6 weeks but it’s gone up in that time. I bought an indoor trainer for my basement but haven’t used it much due to the awkward placement. I just got rid of that large extraneous bed in my basement which will allow me to put it in a good place and use it more. What’s new for me in the last six weeks or so is daily treadmill time.

    @89th said in Calibri v. Times New Roman: I'm just trying to visualize how some of this Administration's dumber moves actually come about... Visualize this (h/t @wtg, also involves Rubio's department): Feds bring woman to US to face charges, then say she’s here illegally [and wants to deport her before she's tried] https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/feds-bring-woman-to-us-to-face-charges-then-say-she-s-here-illegally/ar-AA1S4hnV
