Beans, potatoes and onions are 3 of the easiest foods to grow. I never got watermelons to work out.

It sounds like you're talking about lymph nodes.

It's funny that everyone has just accepted that the President can do whatever the gently caress he wants. Under the current framework he could literally murder every opposition party senator and no one could do anything. "It's up to the Senate to impeach him if they think this is bad, that's just the rules, he is just playing the game" I say looking at the bloodstained chamber where every senator is dead.

Just so everyone knows the tale.

Culp, who ran for governor of WA this year, was also the police chief and sole police officer of his one horse town. When he went on the campaign trail his town opened a contract with the county sheriffs department and between then now Culp became unemployed.

lmao he and his dog were the police department were he was and they shut him the gently caress down, unfortunately my understanding is he was immediately hired by the county sheriff. He's also a pedophile

From what I've gathered he has the ability to move over to the sheriffs as if he were always a county employee, but he's currently still refusing to concede the race he lost by 20%.

it's because giving the poors a laptop and internet is basically socialism. At least among the CHUDs I know.

I am stoked for this study that is scheduled to begin this month, not because I think it will work, but because it reminds me of Winnie the Pooh and I think it’s funny:

Efficacy of Natural Honey Treatment in Patients With Novel Coronavirus


So, assuming a patient weighs 200 lbs (or 90 kg), to participate in this study they would have to eat 90g of honey, or roughly one jar of honey, every day for 14 days after being diagnosed with COVID-19.

Hasn't that just been life since 9/11? (at least that's the first time I had such thoughts. Particularly because my father was a pilot and this hosed up his entire career trajectory and our family's entire financial situation)

I'm sure this is the first time many people have been directly impacted (like being asked to wear a mask when they enter a store omfg), though

I might be slightly more broke brained than average, but it wasn't until about april of last year that I gave the whole idea of US government collapse a second thought. 9/11 for me just broke the 'fortress America' myth.

I'm going to pretend the person they were going to hire for it died, along with HR

Last mega-corp I worked for left a team-lead spot open for a year and a half while they courted some dude in Florida the boss had a crush on. Left a 19 year old who was on his first real job in charge of a few million of nightly shipments.
