I think you just redefined a marriage. The function of marriage legally is all those “legal affairs”.

That is really not true.

No, most of us are broke because we insist on ensuring that suburban mcmansions are the only places to really live. When you spend 30% on driving and 40% on housing, suddenly you are broke.

Attempting a coup is much harder with an opponent on the executive branch. The only reason the last one was close was because Trump was sandbagging the response. The only way one succeeds now is if the military facilitates the coup, aggressively, IMO.

This thread demonstrates the idealogical purism and lack of pragmatic political expectations from leftists and progressives. There is literally nothing the Biden admin can do that will ever be enough because it doesn’t match some rosy fucking dreamland that only lives in your heads. Descheduling is huge, and signals the end of 100 years of madness with cannabis laws. If you want more, then we need to have more legislative power to implement it.

This is a fucking win, dumbasses.

What you are suggesting is a legislative action. The nation needs to provide enough legislative power to happen.

73% of Americans are overweight. They’ll be just fine if they eat out less.

I mean, you can say the same about every form of entertainment. Music? Majority is crap. Movies? Crap. Sports? Crap. Books? Crap. Video games? Crap.

IMO a tankie on the left is just a pure anti-west authoritarian cosplaying as a communist - the communism is largely window dressing and they are generally perfectly happy defending Russia (obviously not communist) or authoritarian nonsense from China and other communist countries.

This is apples to oranges. Fusion is not the same as fission. We simply don’t know the economics of a viable fusion reactor.

However, we do know fissions cost is heavily driven by safety and regulation. It is very reasonable to assume that fusion’s requirements in this area are distinctly smaller.

Disingenuous attribution of a local environmental variable to a national crisis is pretty pathetic. Oregon isn’t even exceptionally high on the opiod death rate.

You have to leave incentives for people who are the ones who are going to create the jobs for all those people trying to climb the ladder.

Oh my god, FUCK OFF

Oh fuck off dude.

There are plenty of studies displaying improved cardiovascular health in those who drink 1-4 cups of coffee a day.. Generally, cardiovascular risks of caffeine from coffee are not important for the average person’s health decisions.

In addition, there is a good argument for caffeine prior to exercise - it improves performance and therefore results and therefore health outcomes.

Also tea has caffeine as well (technically dark chocolate too, but less than tea so not really a concern).

And again, the solution to sleep issues are to not have caffeine (tea, coffee, or otherwise) more than a few hours after you wake up.

Withdrawal symptoms are not a major concern - they are temporary at best.

Edit: there are plenty of sources of polyphenols - but frankly the average American does not get nearly enough generally. If you have a typical American diet, I would not recommend quitting coffee as a health measure unless you have already drastically increased consumption of polyphenols generally.

Coffee also is high in polyphenols - the benefits almost certainly outweigh the drawbacks. Just don’t drink coffee after the morning.

That’s why the vast majority of people who lose weight either fail or end up regaining the weight in less then a couple years.

Seriously, you have a better chance of quitting heroin than losing significant weight and keeping it off.

What. No. We drive far more, and have more cars. In 1960 nearly a quarter of households didn’t even have a car. Now that is only 10%.

Here is a study on occupational movement, which has decreased significantly (100 kcal a day - which is roughly a pound bodyweight energy lost per month).

In addition, people had far more incidental and leisure movement - considering that hours of TV watched nearly doubled.

Of course, our trash diet is a huge aspect, and probably the lions share - but the lack of movement is not insignificant

They don’t care about hypocrisy any other time.

Environmental nihilism only serves to make the world a worse place.
