It's even worse – they do less surgery at a more relaxed pace, so capacity is actually decreasing. It attracts lots of staff because of flexible hours and good pay. The result is poor people get fucked.
It's not an attempt at Greek, for sure. She probably used Cyrillic as a simple substitution cipher to stop her parents and others from reading her very violent thoughts.
No, it wasn't. My wife is a Russian trans girl, and she tried reading the journal – she confirms that it is, in fact, a bastardized fusion of Russian lettering of mostly-English words.
The writer is most definitely not a Russian speaker, and the notebook would be unintelligible to anyone who doesn't speak English.
His ban will force Health Canada to consider the issue, and may accelerate them making similar decisions as the FDA, on reducing this practice altogether.
This is actually not true. If you ban it here AND remove the Health Canada requirement for testing on higher order animals, there is no need to do that research. It doesn't even correlate that well with human health outcomes. Ban the practice and remove the incentive, and I guarantee you that the behaviour will go away.
The FDA already removed its requirement for testing on higher order mammals – mouse work is sufficient to get an investigational new drug (IND) permit, or an equivalent permit for a medical device. I suspect Health Canada has done the same, but I'm not 100% sure – if not, it absolutely should. I'd rather have marginally more risk to human participants that generates useful, applicable data, than perform countless cruel experiments that poorly correlate with human biology.
No it doesn't, but then, that's not really an argument to keep nickel-and-diming drivers. I'm all for fair progressive taxation, but it shouldn't be composed of a million government fees that pop up every time you have to deal with the government for any reason. I know Ford got rid of the $200 fee and refunded it for cynical, manipulative reasons, but I'm still glad it's gone, and I have to believe that most people are not stupid enough to be bought by $200.
OP is not wrong, and I think you know that, but you've got a sore spot about it clearly. It may be uncomfy, but it's the truth that alcohol is absolutely horrible for one's health.
I have an EV and burn zero fossil fuels. I also think putting bike lanes on a major artery that wasn't designed for them is a terrible idea. I'm all for bike lanes on side streets, but not on arteries, sorry.
Hi, I'm a medical scientist who has worked in labs doing animal research. Let me tell you this – it's the fucking Wild West for all practical purposes. The stuff some labs get away with is DISGUSTING and gives me nightmares.
I'm not a conservative, but I'm glad Ford is doing this, and I commend his bravery in doing so. Fuck all of the so-called scientists who do sick experiments on sentient high-order animals.
The worst part is, 90% of the time, the research questions can be answered using mice – or sometimes without using animals at all. The reason we cling to animal research is because if we didn't, a lot of (very sick) scientists would lose their jobs, because they lack the skills to work with other model systems.
Also, don't talk to the police under any circumstances, even if you think you are the victim. They are not your friends, and they can and will fuck you over. Call a lawyer and keep your mouth shut.
To be clear, I have no problem with liability insurance. Everyone should have that. I also don't have a problem with accident benefits. (Although I think the way they calculate rates is criminal, but that's another story.)
My problem is with everything else, and in particular, collision insurance. Insuring your car, as a piece of property, is a scam. You can never use it! If you EVER make a claim, your insurance – not just collision, but also liability and accident benefits – will skyrocket. Your insurer WILL punish you and suck you dry to recoup their losses. So why even bother?
Yes, yes, I know you're supposed to report all accidents (even minor ones) to your insurer, but let's be honest, no sane person does that. If you can withhold that info, you absolutely should.
Both. It's all a scam. Buy the minimum insurance you can find. You can never make a claim anyways, lest your insurance become unaffordable or cancelled entirely, so why bother paying high rates.
Fair enough, although quite frankly, we should not be burning any gas. If we had upgraded and expanded our nuclear plants like many groups told us for many, many years, we wouldn't have this problem
What a shitty fluff article. You can only see the details once you subscribe to their shitty site.
TL;DR: Guy asked chatgpt what you can replace chloride with in salt, and it thought he meant chemistry, so it told him other halides like bromide. It did NOT recommend him to eat it. He inferred that on his own, and then gave himself a psychiatric illness by eating buckets of it.
This is an example of an unfortunate illness caused by human stupidity.

Signed!

Oh fuck off. You car-haters manage to bring that into every issue.

And apparently you also have the right to get harassed and dragged through the mud in a long and unfair criminal case, even if you get off in the end.

You have to have liability insurance here (which I agree is a good thing), but everything else on top of that (e.g. collision insurance) is optional.

I'm disgusted to learn we are getting 1/3 of our power from gas. Fuck Doug Ford and all the anti-environmentalist cunts he employs.

Don't blame human stupidity on LLMs.
We ended up not needing it – serendipitously, a buyer materialized a couple weeks ago who is willing to pay list price :)
