This is actually kind of surprising since some of the more pervasive poisons (like lead) were reduced. I wonder if some others were introduced that we’ll learn about later…

I know people like to jump right to screens and devices and “social media”, but it is fairly instructive that some fairly prominent people in tech had set some boundaries on their kids’ use of such things…

Also - when I read that studies show that people tend to absorb the content of actual, physical books better than reading an ebook, I tend to seek out the hardcopy of a book for important topics I need to really understand.

All this talk of lead and asbestos has put this song in my head…

So, they are being made to follow the law, right?

Really though, do they have to call it milk? I mean what even is plant based milk? It isn’t milk. Are they that afraid of people knowing what they’re getting that they can’t call it what it is or give it a friendly name that doesn’t mean something it’s not?

I find it really weird when Big Dairy (and Big Meat) are overly sensitive about what competing products call themselves.

It’s not like people are going to get confused about what is what. Big Dairy just want to force people to name their product something unappealing.

I’m reminded of when Colbert talked about how Big Dairy wants things like almond milk to be called “nut juice”.

Forcing unleaded gas on the American people was so woke.

I figure a lot of them are pedophiles and/or people like the J6 terrorists and were bound to commit crimes.

I mean, in addition to the crimes they do on the job and think they have immunity for.

the republicans basically all voted against my country.

If you are referring to Canada, the cons also are voting against the USA, too.

They are fucking gullible idiots who think doing completely moronic things will own the libs because they “did their own research”.

term and age limits for politicians (no one over 65)

I have yet to see a cogent defense of either of these positions. If there is to be an age limit, 65 is wayyyyy too young already, and bound to become even more anachronistic.

The rest sounds fine.

Israel, and their supporters, have been pushing the narrative for over a year now that any negative comments about anything the country does are anti-Semetic.

LOL, more like decades that they’ve been pushing that shit.

Used to be that worked when you had only 3 OTA networks and 3 cable networks and a handful of major newspapers that did all the gate-keeping on narratives relating to Israel.

They started to have a real problem once the rise of peer-to-peer communication reared its head. This is why they keep wanting to try to put the toothpaste back in the tube and put all the major platforms under the thumb of billionaires that will be compliant to the bullshit Israel narrative. When it comes to broadcast media, they could have an easier time than ever controlling that narrative.

The bitch Blondi should be in prison. Period.

Total piece of shit completely uninterested in doing her job, but is all about conducting lawfare on every one of Donvict’s enemies instead. Turns out all their hand-wringing about “lawfare” was projection.

It’s always projection with these assholes.

Yeah, but spike protein!!!1111 Vaccine shedding! The clot shot!

Not even the least bit doubtful.

This is a Chinese hoax. The resorts have always been unskiiable at this time of year.

For people like Stephen Miller, this is part of the plan, I’m sure.

Suppose he gets his wish and every non-white person is deported/detained. When does it dawn on him that he’s not white? More importantly, when does it dawn on the monsters that helped him carry out this evil plan?

“That’s cool. I’m sure Kamala would have been jUstAsBaD because something something argle bargle status quo and neoliberalism. Also the economy that was the envy of the world when Biden left really didn’t have good macroeconomic indicators because, well, reasons.”

I wish the Democrats would constantly try to make the names of these people a household name. Kind of like the way the conservatives did about victims of violence from immigrants. As if immigrants have a higher rate of violence. But they were rushing all around declaring everyone should “say their name”. They do the same stuff with the criminal insurrectionist Ashli Babbit, too.

Obviously in the case of children, you cannot name the victims, but the perps? Democrats should be asking Republicans to repeat those names and ask why their party supports pedophilia.

Here’s what I want Republicans and Democrats to explain - make it make sense how ICE needs all this funding. How did they possibly get by before?
