Kids During Thanksgiving
  • While it might not solve this kid's problem, that menu is missing a great American Thanksgiving side dish that's been traditional since Thomas Jefferson's enslaved chef James Hemings made it: macaroni and cheese!

  • Mexican President’s Harsh Takedown of Trump Exposes an Ugly MAGA Scam
  • I'm kinda hoping she's pissed off enough to call the program to a halt once Biden leaves office and the tariffs begin. Just unleash the swarm. Or maybe wait just long enough to make it clear he CAUSED this, as the numbers of illegal crossings rise month after month.

    Nevermind, I can't help feeling innocent people would be hurt by his jackboot thugs. And the MAGA-US isn't going to be a healthy place to live anymore anyway.

  • Thanksgiving with MAGA
  • You've already received a joke answer, so yes, breast reduction surgery for guys is a thing. And sometimes the doctor can convince some insurance companies to cover it. But ymmv, because USA.

  • What wouldn't you have minded so much if it wasn't exaggeratingly bad?
  • Generally speaking, one runs for a place on the Board and the Board chooses their President. Who then needs to continue working with the other Board members. Ousting is not an option.

    Getting on the Board is still a good way to get your pet peeves changed, though. Often it's just a matter of focusing attention on it.

  • The Dobbs effect: Why abortions have risen across America
  • I appreciate the article saying "contrary to predictions" rather than "despite the overturning" as in the summary. Because anyone with any sense knew it would pan out this way. The summary wording sounds as it would be logical to assume the bans would result in fewer abortions. The article wording correctly allows that it's the predictors (those pushing the forced-birth agenda) who were wrong.

    Make pregnancy even more dangerous and force knowledgeable OBGYNs to abandon your state? Spur the sympathy of women throughout the land and the mobilization of pro-choice "auntie networks" who may never have understood the plight of poor women without access to care before? And do it in a pandemic-altered economy where remotely-accessed products and healthcare have become routine?

    Classic FAFO.

  • Anon gets home from a long day at work
  • They should have left a path on the left side as you go up. Reason being it's easier to balance going up than going down, and the majority of the population has a stronger right hand to grip the rail. Personally I'd ask them to clear a path, because they might just have been stupid and jump to it, but if they don't I'd go shove a few out of the way on the bottom step with my foot, giving them time to change their mind before I continue on up, leaving bottles rolling down in my wake.

    Could microplastics be eroding empathy in human brains?

    It's not a crazier idea than most of Kennedy's. Someone should do a study. Or make one up, nobody checks anymore.

    But is it really a catapult?

    Satellites are critical for monitoring Earth's health, identifying issues like methane leaks, and conducting various other types of research.

    Using centripetal force puts it in trebuchet territory does it not?

    Which is a better descriptor for the Republican Party, the Wrong Wing or the Right-Stealing Wing?

    Seems to me, calling the GOP the Right Wing contributes to their delusions of grandeur and self-righteousness. The fact it's only supposed to be "sitting on the right-hand side of the room" is lost in deliberate ignorance. Looking for a more accurate label. If you don't like these two choices you're welcome to ring in with your suggestions. Since other countries have their own versions of a Right Wing, ranging from something equivalent to the US Democratic Party to full-on fascism, y'all are welcome to weigh in on those as well.
