Point being that they didn’t know what Lyme Disease was until they made the breakthrough discovery.

Your smartphone can’t see viruses or heat but other cameras can. Point being, there’s lots a normal camera can’t see.
Several things.
What would be enough proof if what we’re dealing with is beyond our current comprehension? Do they need to trot it out on live TV? Lyme disease wasn’t discovered until relatively recently like the 70s or 80s iirc and it was because a Doctor got it. Up until then they were saying it was juvenile arthritis.
I’m just saying that there has been a lot going on recently if you pay attention.
Either a lot of really high level officials are lying or military/intelligence is. Knowing how going public with this stuff can ruin your life, what possible motivation would they have to lie. There is no big money in this.
Let’s be real they’re not just doing it to the US.
I wonder when he’ll go to rehab. He’s so unhinged.
God I wonder why Palestinians are so upset. Oh wait:
Last October, Palestinian grandmother Ayesha Shtayyeh says a man pointed a gun at her head and told her to leave the place she had called home for 50 years.
Good for the woman who was attacked to maintain composure. That must have been really hard. From the article:
Spring said she understood it was critical that she remained composed even while being attacked.
“I wanted to make sure I acted appropriately so that I could keep my job because the script could have been flipped at any time if I had retaliated,” Spring said
It’s so heartbreaking that the bolded part is systemic racism. Like she can’t defend herself because that terrible white woman would have pretended to be the victim? Fuck all of that and fuck that white girl.
Our parties are more left leaning than US ones, yeah. So the left-most leaning party, the NDP is the Bernies and AOCs. Just slightly to the right of them but not by much are the centre-left (some could argue centre, for Canada) Liberals aka US Dems but these are still left of the US Dems. Then you have the Conservatives who used to be centre right but they’re really flirting with being firmly right which is STILL to the left of the US Repubs. So yeah, we’re pretty left.
Here’s a good breakdown someone wrote on the other site:
There’s a Daily Show from back in the Stewart days when Harper’s Conservatives won the federal election in Canada. The line went something like:
“Right wing parties are winning everywhere! In Canada, the Conservative Party, or as we’d know it here, the Gay Rainbow Alliance, has won their election.”
If that gives you any idea.
The NDP are mostly in-line with the further left of the Dems, but realistically, the Liberals are only slightly more towards the centre than them. The Conservatives are historically right of centre, but still left of most of the American center. That was largely true before the Progressive Conservatives failed, merged with the Reform party, and became the Conservative Party of Canada.
That said, the Conservative parties have been moving further right in recent years. Some of this was because their supporters were generally finance, oil, large corporations, etc., so the policies they pushed forward were usually beneficial to them. But more recently they’ve been pursuing a lighter version of US-style populism. Mostly though, their platform for the past 3 leaders seems to be “aren’t you sick of Trudeau yet?” because they don’t have much substance in anything else they claim to support.
They need to pay some lip service to progressives for now to get elected.
AIPAC’s funding casts doubt on how progressive the Dems are allowed to be in the long term.
Yes thank you. It didn’t read as natural - that’s the word.
It’s disheartening that one can’t disagree on this topic without being eaten alive. I’m not saying elect Donald Trump and the couchfucker or anything ffs. Plus, I’m Canadian - so probably more left leaning than any US Dem - and as I’ve expressed, I really want the US to get their shit together.
I’ve done Toastmasters. I’m a writer for a living. I know how to give feedback on speeches. I also acknowledged that not every speech is received the same way by every viewer.
I’m not even saying she’s bad - I’m just saying she could be GREAT with more practice. I don’t understand why this is a shocking thing to say.
Nope, just saying what makes an impactful speech to me 🤷♀️
I’m allowed to disagree about the speech.
There’s nothing holding her back from being a great speaker like Obama. She needs more time and practice to develop her skills further to get to that next level. And maybe a better speechwriter.
I’m definitely a fan of hers, but felt that this could have been executed better. She did not have a lot of vocal variation and came out blazing fairly early on in the speech. Not going to rewatch it, but that was my perspective from last night. At one point I was like whoa Kimberly Guilfoyle, take it down a notch.
I do understand the need to be angry but it’s much more impactful when vocal variation, pitch, tone and volume are employed more effectively to build toward the anger.
Response because I can’t post to thread?
Yeah it was a solid debut but I’m excited for her to get better. Compare and contrast with Harris’ childhood friend and she obviously was better than that. It just doesn’t inspire me to make people watch it because I don’t think it was at that level.
To be fair, the news showed people straight up crying at Clinton’s speech and I didn’t think that was amazing either.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic, to paraphrase the famous quote.
