He made the remarks in his new special, so presumably they were part of his jokes and dark humor. Has anyone seen it to say otherwise?

Did y’all read the article? He disses Israel, so you should be able to say, “a broken clock,” at least.

The article (and possibly the FBI) didn’t explain what was special about these strains. Everyone already has E. coli in their guts. There are particularly nasty strains that can cause sickness, but this bacterium is also extensively used in biotech to propagate and express plasmid DNAs and study as a model organism.

A researcher moving to the US could be bringing strains of interest which would actually benefit US lab research. That’s actually the most likely thing one would do. Yes, you should declare what you’re bringing in and have it scrutinized. But most likely this would help US research advance, and Patel is just grandstanding against what was a blunder made while trying to circumvent bureaucratic red tape (i.e. the import would have been eventually approved if done properly).

North Korea deserves it, but they won’t win it. North Koreans will all vote for the USA, while Americans will be split on voting for themselves and other countries.

If you visit Eastern Europe, you’ll find a lot of museums which reflect on the double disaster of Nazi occupation for years followed by Communist occupation for decades.

There are museums for African American history which have exhibits about slavery and its victims, if you’re interested. https://www.wonderfulmuseums.com/museum/slavery-museums-in-the-united-states/

Because capitalism is the normal order of things going back for millennia.

Please don’t confuse this as victim blaming. It is not. I am curious about what the victim thought was going on with her health when she was being frequently sedated. Did she think she became a hard sleeper? Did she have side effects that she might have even seen a doctor for, who spent futile time testing for natural causes?

Is this something that might one day be in the back of mind for nurses and doctors that someone is being secretly drugged, like Munchausen by Proxy?

Only try to realize the truth: there is no shower.

Quick, look around for a whale and a bowl of petunias.

You’re missing the sarcasm.

They are free to vote for any candidate in the Party so long as that person is approved.

It’s unfortunately a necessary step to protect Mao’s People’s Revolution. At least they are free from the evils of capitalism in Hong Kong now, and part of a shining example to the rest of the world what happens when the workers rise up and throw off their chains.

I didn’t know that.

The fertility problem always surprises me. Synthetic estrogens and latex are responsible for low birth rates in almost every developed country, but only religious nuts really ever complain about that.

Globally, infertility impacts about 14% of people. It gets higher with age, and in developed countries, more people are trying to get pregnant at older ages.

Additional tip: if you want to make vinegar or citric acid far less effective, first make a paste of it by mixing with baking soda. This is suggested on many life hack websites.

Doctor who?

I wish they would just give the answer in the headline instead of burying it in the article. I want to know who recommends it without having to follow the link, but no!

The entirety of the evidence is the account of the historian Filiu.

“The [Israeli] rationale [was] to discredit Hamas and the UN at that time … and to allow [Israel’s] clients, the looters, to either redistribute the aid to expand their own support networks or to make money out of reselling it in order to get some cash and so not depend exclusively on Israeli financial support,” Filiu said.

That’s pretty powerful to have an eye witness able to testify directly about Israel’s rationale.

Like many other commenters here, I spent the day not shopping, not watching TV (I don’t even own one and haven’t even heard of your favorite streaming services), not listening to any popular music or even the A sides of albums by some bands you’ve never heard of, eating only whole foods that didn’t show any form of suffering during their demise when harvested from the community garden, identifying 2026 candidates to align with (whom I shall never name here lest someone bring up an imperfect act they once failed to adequately denounce), and telling loose acquaintances that I am an ally for their non-traditional romantic entanglements.

Was it Black Friday?

Yours is the vegan of sociopolitical attitudes.
