I don't know what's funnier about this comment section... The people who seem to absolutely despise milk, or the big milk shills downvoting them all into oblivion.

I guess I wasn't specific enough. 😅 Borderline is kind of just difficult to treat; what I said was my attempt at explaining why. At least, as I understand it. Yes, therapists can give you very useful skills and knowledge; not knocking them at all. (Ok maybe a little. One of them did have me kidnapped...)

But ultimately what people with BPD need is a healthy relationship, and that's just not something a therapist can provide. (Unless they want to lose their license I guess. 🤷)

But anyway thanks for the kind words. :)

You know, I've heard that the barter system, as a foundation of economics, is essentially made up. Like, obviously people barter, but the idea that it was a universal precursor to money was essentially invented by capitalists in the industrial era, who never could have dreamed of the myriad interesting ways thar people distributed wealth!

Apparently one of the more common ones was a sort of "gifting" system, where people just gave each other what they needed. 🤷 But of course this wasn't universal either.

That's what the call is for- you ask the local office if they can confirm that that officer is actually on patrol, exists, etc. Idk how that would work for ICE though; I don't think you can just call up the federal ICE headquarters.

They're labeled by type; one of those types happens to just be called "yellow." It's smooth and vinegary. Good on hot dogs and burgers.

But those other studies didn't make the news though, did they? The thing about scientists is that they aren't just scientists, and the impact of their work goes beyond the papers that they publish. If doing something 'unethical' is what it takes to get people to wake up, then maybe the publication status is a lesser concern.

Yea, so Hasbro owns Wizards of the Coast, which owns Magic The Gathering. One day, a guy that opens packs on camera got accidentally sent a pack from a set that hadn't been released yet.

I forget the exact details, but WotC ended up sending some thugs to this guys house to retrieve the merchandise via intimidation, and the company those thugs worked for was related to the Pinkertons from your high school civics textbook. (Like, they had acquired them in a merger or something.)

I'm sure you're joking, but actually I'm reading a very interesting book about this topic called "The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity."

It's really concerned with freedom, and disputes the idea that the lack thereof is inherently tied to agriculture.
