Not a doctor or anything, but I imagine it could be this bad: https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia/taiwan-hospital-removes-over-300-kidney-stones-from-woman-who-prefers-bubble-tea-to-plain-water

I’m a dumb yank, but I’d never advise anyone to go with an Apple product, largely cuz I’m poor but also cuz I don’t like Apple’s UI

Edit: total aside, but when I used to work overseas, my students were always shocked that I didn’t have all Apple products

The Panthers and CPUSA were infiltrated, of course there’re feds in DSA

My mom is a boomer, she can name them but oddl didn’t recognize a portrait of Marx in my living room lol

Here, share with the uninformed: https://tv.cctv.com/2026/08/29/VIDEK8WKbyqpmMZ9AWjKaCwU260829.shtml

Its wild. You can go on chinese language news media from China and see them posting about it with video and images

Then bbc et al take those images and video, repost them and say China is censoring the media

Fucking insane

20% is the standard now, sometimes people tip more or less

When I was a kid the standard tip was 15%, not sure when/why it changed

I hope she dies alone and in pain

Very skeptical of humanoid robots beyond being a toy.

Yes. That’s my point.

Bet my car can beat this robot at the 100m too

Graduated college around 2010. It’ll get marginally better. If you’re lucky and get an advanced degree, you might get a job making 25$/hr like me (no bennies)

I for one want my space fascist thugs to only be non-binary

I think if she got redeemed, she’d need to give up her titles and privileges; completely reject her old ideology which was based in hereditary absolutism. That would never happen cuz it’s made by libs.

I think Azula’s a great villain. She’s also just a kid so I want her to be redeemed…but I also do not want to see her redemption arc. We don’t need to endlessly expand on past media.

They invented the computers Kirk tricks into burning themselves out with logic traps

They invented the opposite: a computer that when you logically trap it just goes “nuh-uh”

Agreed. I don’t expect everyone to be leading with “death to United Snakes of Amerikkka” but socialist electeds need to lead on issues and sometimes those issues won’t be popular yet…that’s why they need leadership

You said:

their strategy is to elect social democrats who openly say they are capitalists.

You listed: (1) A man who DSA endorsed six years ago who doesn’t identify as a capitalist. (2) An anti-zionist who calls himself a capitalist who isn’t endorsed by DSA but has DSA people supporting him.

Neither of those things are what you said. You moved the goal posts or you weren’t clear in your initial statement.

I think you bring up topics worth discussing, but if you cant be clear or can’t admit you moved the goal posts I don’t see how we can have a productive conversation.

Best of luck, comrade.

Neither El-Sayed or Bernie Sanders is in DSA. Neither are currently endorsed by DSA. If you want to move the goal post and discuss Sanders and El-Sayed I’m happy too.

But first, will you admit you couldn’t name a DSA elected who has called themselves a capitalist?
