No see, if you put that in there you are obviously inciting violence.
"CEOs before Schools" I can stand there with a straight face and talk shit about how Libertarian policies are the best thing for the nation and that liberals waste money on dance and music classes for kids who should be learning a trade...
Ok. I dont care.
Give the lead paint some credit.
Whey Protein powder is "ultra processed", Cheetos are also ultra processed, multivitamins could be considered ultraprocessed, so can twinkies.
Just because its gone through a machine and into your body doesnt make it bad for you. I can wreck a giant slab of well made pork belly probably still worse for my health than my protein bars.
Thats exactly how I feel "Its sad that this is looking like the solution"
Like, it had to come to this? You couldnt just set up your little racket and keep the golden goose fat and happy? Or atleast adequately provided for and left alone?
Preworkout. 2 scoops and I am fucking unstoppable. Also insufferable, and slightly manic but shit gets done!
Because my boss knows if he tries to make me pick between my job and my baby girl... He WILL lose. There wont be a discussion or an argument, he will lose, I might get fired but so be it.
Once people have kids they have more to lose, but running head to head with them instead of making minor concessions is the dumb move. Theres always another job and guaranteed they will start looking immediately if they dont quit outright if you pick that fight. As a supervisor at my job people with kids are also more inclined to bust arse to make sure people arent carrying their load when they do need a bit of special treatment because they still need to provide and have a solid income.
Malicious compliance story.
Friend of mine was paying child support for his kids, his ex wife was claiming no income as she had to look after the kids which he knew was bullshit and she was working in the new boyfriends restaraunt but claimed that she was just "helping out when she could. That stopped for a year when her and her new boyfriend wanted to buy a house, so he gave her a very nicely paid job working at his restaraunt as a "manager". They found and bought a house and immediately she was "fired" and went back to seeking child support.
So he sued to have the child support lowered as she can clearly work when it suits her goals and she fought it kicking and fucking screaming, tried taking away his access to the kids and generally making his life hell. So he went to the tax office with a hot tip "I'm willing to bet that between (insert dates here) this restaraunt somehow took in exactly (insert what ex-wife made + taxes) more than they normally do per year. Id be willing to bet it was their best year ever and I guarantee you will find some very cooked books"
Turns out its really easy to get custody when your ex-wife is being charged with fraud and tax evasion.
Now let me preface this by saying "I hate Trump"
One of the few things that I have hope for with the proposed cuts to the FDA is that is wont cost as much money to research possible treatments/drugs/cures so the lower profitability drugs and treatments might actually get a look in. Not saying the drugs companies arent predatory AF but spending hundreds of millions to make tens of millions is just bad business.
The worst part about the healthcare in America situation is how easy it would be to take 90% of the pressure off while not inherently changing the system, THEY JUST WONT.
I'm not even talking about life saving drugs and chronic conditions requiring specialists. If they can do it in a bush clinic in Uganda it shouldnt be expensive. If someone can set and plaster a broken arm in a tent with a folding table it shouldnt cost $5000 in a modern hospital. Your kid falling off their bike and needing an Xray should not be expensive. Going to a GP to confirm that "Yeah bro, your just sick" so you dont get fired SHOULDNT BE A THING let alone cost more than you would have made at work that day.

I fucking hate Gossip Girl.
I'm also a 40yo man... so... that tracks.
