    We use to get those cute little Millers at that little blues bar on the French Quarter. All you could eat red beans and rice and French bread for fifty cents and the little Millers for seventy five. They tasted damn good.

    Though of course prosecutors ignoring theft < $1000, is real.

    Up here in Canada, neonatal beds, staff, resources are limited. There’s a continual push to discharge prems earlier and earlier to make space/adjust staffing for complex admissions. Even in your U.S. system, with your huge units, teams and technology, I can’t help but wonder if states such as Texas now have to prioritize more of these genetic/congenital/complex births (those who may have been aborted) as NICU admissions and discharge/transfer out other babes sooner. This taxes hospital systems, and most importantly, it increases stressors for all families with neonates in NICUs.

    Just say NO! Its like non-alcohol beer. Only psychopaths and fetishists drink alcoholic beverages for the "taste". Right? there are WAY better reasons to drink. If I do say so myself.

    @Jolly said in Gaslighting the Ticking Time Bomb: @Doctor-Phibes said in Gaslighting the Ticking Time Bomb: Conversely, should people really be voting based on their emotional reaction to something that just happened? No, but information is not emotion. Not always. Consider how people would have voted, had they known Hunter's laptop was real. That story was covered up like a cat pawing litter. Stuff always happens. Stopping early voting because of stuff that may or may not occur during the two weeks before the election doesn't really make much logical sense. And it works both ways. Either candidate is more than capable of saying something monumentally stupid or crass a couple of days away from election day which could also make people regret their vote.

    They will definitely be bullet stoppers for the Russian. Engineers and construction crews, hmmm probably not. LOL In somewhat related news, the South Korean government said that President Putin gave Premier Kim a locally produced and made Russian Aurus limousine. The interesting thing is that the car most likely contains a certain % of parts from South Korean parts manufacturers. LOL (Of course supplied prior to the war sanctions)
