I thought it was drunk driving.

He just became the mayor of New York City as a democratic socialist.

It sure is easy to tell others what to do when you face none of the consequences.

My GenX dad calling me and complaining about how much Indeed sucked for finding jobs was extremely validating.

I mean, I would argue that trade is a form of diplomacy, but whatever. My source points to the first example known as a lingua franca, and shows that the phrase “lingua franca” has nothing to do with the French language; however I can acknowledge the wide acceptance of French as a lingua franca much after the times where Sabir was widely spoken. Anyways, I think that’s enough arguing with strangers on the internet for me today.

It wasn’t, the term lingua franca originates from the Mediterranean Lingua Franca, also known as Sabir, a pidgin language made up of bits from primarily romance languages (notably those of northern Italy) around the Mediterranean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Lingua_Franca

It’s Ofcom, the Office of Communications. Not sure how they managed to get it wrong 4 times.

It’s part of general anesthesia, along with other drugs such as midazolam, propofol, ketamine, etomidate, etc. It augments anesthesia gases such as sevoflurane/desflurane/isoflurane, though we’re getting outside my realm of expertise; I’m not an anesthesiologist so I can’t specify why a certain combination of drugs might be used vs another.

Fentanyl is not the cheapest opiate in US hospitals, and is not used as a substitute for morphine or oxycodone. It’s primarily used for anesthesia, where oxycodone/hydrocodone/morphine/hydromorphone are used in the units as pain killers taken orally. Injectable hydromorphone is cheaper and more commonly used for acute pain than fentanyl.

This track is on my stoner/doom metal playlist, it’s a good one!

The regal near me wants $16 to see a movie ☹️

Oh brother

I thought Denims did the CPS call? 🤡

I would guess that it’s because recycling requires energy input, while compost doesn’t require hardly any energy.

Play it All Night Long by Warren Zevon is a diss for that whole song, check it out.

Ah yes, the American Schutzstaffel, the A.S.S.

Hope they get what’s coming to them.

This is bullshit. Tolerance is no moral imperative, it’s a social contract. Members of a society tolerate one another to keep things moving freely; to avoid conflicts between people of different races/genders/political views/backgrounds, etc. We are under no obligation to respect the views of someone who wishes to upend the social contract of tolerance by not tolerating those around them. It’s called the tolerance paradox.

Jordan’s a somewhat notorious mod 'round these parts.

She’s saying it was reckless for him to seek re-election in the primaries as he was not physically/mentally fit to run or govern. He made the decision to run again despite his condition.
