“of the female persuasion” - is that a normal turn of phrase?

It makes it sound like gender is fluid (like “she convinced herself she’s a girl and there’s nothing to be done about it”), which I absolutely love, especially considering it’s the mid 19th century…

I’m sure that if they just keep looking, they’ll find… Nope, it’s more white, male, republicans.

This has clearly got to be satire, but the issue with “walkable communities” is the zoning. You need commerce close to those houses - a coffee shop, a bakery, small supermarket, dry cleaner, small doctor’s office, a couple of restaurants, etc.

Not a huge strip of stores, just a few every other block.

Ditch the school buses, and instead create actual bus routes that the kids, but also everyone else, can hop on and off to get around.

I cannot, for the life of me, understand how you can kill 350 people and then just buy your way out of it.

This money isn’t even for the victims families, it’s a fucking bribe to get the gov to shield them from consequences.

This is wrong on so many levels - fucking executives need to go to jail over this!

If they’re not going to be responsible for their fuck ups, Boeing airworthiness needs to be revoked around the world. When they come crashing down over US politicians heads, then maybe they’ll learn.

Unfortunately that disease isn’t exclusive to the US.

Don’t mind that, it’s from when they painted the other ceiling

We known that tub of orange lard couldn’t hold itself on that pose, that’s my AI giveaway.

They’re kinda giving me more of a twice widowed vibe. Those birds have been to some funerals.

I think it’s the source itself, Boost let’s me zoom in but the quality doesn’t improve.

He never said they aren’t going to kill anyone.

He said they aren’t going to kill many.

Which is true, up until a bunch of people pull guns, and then they’ll kill everyone.

Tldr

Show them a gun and you better be prepared to pull that trigger the moment they see it, because you’re going to die.

In a tense situation where there’s been some minor violence, a gun will immediately escalate things to a lethal level.

Stick to what I said and don’t make up stuff in your head please. I’m not against forceful opposition - rocks fly, things catch on fire, barricades get erected.

But don’t give them an armed conflict where they will 100% win, and much more easily spin it to fit their agenda.

That’s exactly what the Hamas attacks did - those fucking morons opened the door and put down a red carpet for Israel to get away with launching a full out “justified” war.

Holy shit. Goon squads. They don’t even identify themselves??

Imagine a hypothetical scenario where a group of random citizens gang up on an ICE agent during their Sunday stroll and handcuff them, and throw them off a bridge somewhere, handcuffs still on.

How would a sheriff know that they aren’t ICE agents themselves? Or are we going by skin colour?

The average (median) price of trucks fluctuated in 2024. It started the year at a relatively high $16,000, before gradually declining to $11,400 in June

They’re much cheaper in Ukraine, random source.

Open carry would have stopped NOTHING.

Flashing a gun at those GI Joe wannabes would have triggered their tiny brains to go into shoot to kill mode, and it would have been a massacre.

These dimwits are trained for full blown military responses. That’s easy for them, they have the gear, the training, and the psychopaths to shoot on sight.

What they can’t handle is massive civil disobedience, because they can’t arrest 100k, 500k, 1 million people who are out there lawfully protesting.

But it’s nutjobs like you, or that moron who sped their car at the agents, who will fuck it up for everyone.

Don’t bring your gun. Keep it at home, and if shit gets to the point where they start killing people, then defend yourself.

They gave the guy a back warmer and a soft grassy pillow. There have been worse arrests.

Actually, a Musk party might be the best thing that happens to the US political system.

Not because it would be a good party, but because it may lower the bar for more parties.

You know what cracks me up? That there’s a rather high likelihood that I know more about mRNA that you do. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.

If you are aware of a specific mechanism that this kind of treatment can go poorly

Alright, so here’s one a concern.
As you’re certainly aware, there are studies that have found that viral RNA can carry into the host’s nucleus and be reverse-transcribed into the infected cell’s genome (for your convenience, here’s one such finding for SARS-CoV-2 https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2105968118), and that it produces chimeric transcripts that fuse the viral and host sequences.
Can you address how an mRNA vaccine would be able to ensure that such reverse transcription would not occur?

Here’s another concern.
The Pfizer BNT162b2 COVID vaccine is, of course, a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccine, which is basically the approach discussed in the OP article. This article (Curr. Issues Mol. Biol. 2022, 44(3), 1115-1126) found that BNT162b2 mRNA is reverse transcribed intracellularly into DNA in as fast as 6 h upon BNT162b2 exposure. Not only that, it has also found increased nuclear expression and distribution of LINE-1, an endogenous reverse transcriptase.
Since we previously covered the integration of foreign RNA into the host’s DNA, can you please explain how do you propose to identify and control for possible epigenetic effects of mRNA vaccines?

Seems like people found my zombie apocalypse parallel a bit too farfetched, but cancerous growth and tumors are in essence breakdowns of the genetic machinary in our cells, which mRNA vaccines are just too happy to mess with. All I’m advocating is more research, better understanding, and safety.

Good thing that was the giveaway, and not the “nice dick” edit, because I’d like to point out that it’s perfectly normal to compliment an acquaintance’s dick or give it a suck.
