I mean, maybe in middle school or better yet high school absolutely. Primary usually means Kindergarten to 5th/6th grade in the US so mostly under 10s

Even if an abortion seeker is within the 12 week gestational limit and has access to a local hospital, a doctor can turn them away on the basis of conscientious objection, which legally allows any doctor to deny a patient an abortion on moral grounds. In 2019, it was reported that 67% of Italian gynecologists were registered as conscientious objectors and multiple hospitals reported having a 100% conscientious objection rate. If a care seeker can find a doctor who is willing to perform an abortion, they must endure a 7-day waiting period between their initial request for an abortion and the procedure (which can push care seekers past the 12 week gestational limit).

‘It’s not as bad as one may think’. You’re right, it’s worse.

So I’ve just moved to a new area about a month ago after leaving a 7+ year relationship. I don’t have friends in the area, and it’s the desert so it’s not great to just walk around during the day.

I figured what the heck, I’ll download Tindr again. OMG. Apparently over 100 likes after the first day??? They’re hidden behind paid membership (which I’ll never get), so it could just be inflated to try and sell but wow. That’s overwhelming.

Is this normal‽

All they heard was ‘second coming’ and signed up. You gotta read the full T&Cs guys.

From the Axios article this one is based off;

**Reality check: Haberman and Swan didn't need audio recordings. Bob Woodward pioneered contemporary historical political journalism by including dialogue in his books that was reconstructed from the memories of people in the rooms where things happened.

**The big picture: Audio recordings or not, the speculation about them, and the extensive coverage of the book's juicy excerpts, mean more buzz, more book sales ... and the making of a classic.

It’s marketing

It really is a shame. I regularly buy their games (without discount) within a month of PC availability, I just can’t help myself. I do so much extra work to minimise spoiler damage just because the game I want to play has a lot of people playing it.

I hate console gaming; or at least the 3 main titans. Microsoft will get my praise on this front alone. Arguably XBOX tanked their brand as a console provider when they did simultaneous PC releases for their 1st party titles, but I adore it. I’ve put in over 15 hours over the last couple of days on Forza Horizon 6.

Meanwhile I had to dance around Spider-Man 2 story/gameplay videos for over a year because I just couldn’t play it. I did this dance because I knew I would play it eventually.

So now if there’s a Sony IP I’m interested in I’ll know to either not bother or just watch story beats on YouTube.

Good job Sony; I’m never going to buy a PS, and now I can't buy your games ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just saw this, so I'm not one of those 'downvoters' but I am curious. The only type of 'dad' joke this reads as is a crass and down putting dad. Most 'dad jokes' will rely on word play, so I looked up the etymology of dyslexia to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Even back in the day they weren't as cruel as 'shit for brains'.

Could you please explain the joke for me. Since I apparently have shit for brains?
