How was Wizard of Oz a queer place?
It's not. But you know how the gays like to "claim" things as "icons?" Judy Garland was a mainstream celebrity who associated herself with them. Her dad was gay, at least one of her husbands was bi, she hung out at gay bars with friends. Basically, the Lady Gaga of the 40s.
And once they claim someone, they'll claim all their work. Then claim the source material. To be a little fair, it is best known as a fairy land of campy musical theater, rainbows, and VERY important shoes.
But seriously, it's just the standard thing where they project of themselves onto a thing they liked and then it becomes a social contagion where one must like it to prove they're a member of the group.
The moderates had expected a larger number of Democrats to vote with them as around 10-12 Democratic senators had been part of the negotiations. But in the end, only five Democrats switched their votes — the exact number that Republicans needed. King, Cortez Masto and Fetterman had already been voting to open the government since Oct. 1.
For all the jokes that were made during the campaign, it still astonishes me that Fetterman consistently manages to be one of the least retarded Democrats. He even recently said that constantly comparing everyone to Hitler is counterproductive. That's what passes as a big-brain move over there.
To be fair to normies, Google's has evolved their approach around that. Even with full-on ad block and anti-track, they're going to put sponsored results for your query at the top of the results page.
So when the normie types "best [tool]" when shopping for dad, it's going to serve them a relevant ad. Then they're going to likely click on it because they don't actively avoid the word "sponsored" on principle.
It's both. There's is some real potential, but the "arms race that will decide the fate of nations," is being played up like there's no tomorrow to bilk the government and investors.
A bunch of bankers and C-suites building giant scams around a core which is a promising tool to sit next to other existing tools.
We're talking about Canada. "These creatures might have a cold, let's euthanize them without testing," will be restricted to birds for how long? If they're were willing to do the COVID insanity and MAID, you think they'll hesitate to combine them?
a far more racy cover image
It's not about cover images. It's about the "capsule" images. The landscape oriented ones that show up in the store search UI (or StreamDB).
Once someone intentionally clicks through to a specific game, it's not an issue anymore.
Basically the difference of what you can sell in a physical shop vs. what you can set up as a window display in a physical shop. You have a lot of freedom in one context and considerably less in the other.
Not to say I think this one should be a problem for a capsule image, but Steam definitely allows far far lewder things on the individual game pages.
That specific drug:
- Is prescription
- Has to be administered via IV
- Is radioactive
Maybe the maker is being overly cautious with their warnings, but it sounds like this stuff does not fuck around.
To minimize radiation exposure to others following administration of PLUVICTO, limit close contact (less than 3 feet) with household contacts for 2 days or with children and pregnant women for 7 days. Refrain from sexual activity for 7 days, and sleep in a separate bedroom from household contacts for 3 days, from children for 7 days, or from pregnant women for 15 days.
If you can't get within 3' of a child for 7 days after it's administered, I'm going to bet it's stored and controlled very specifically.
That said...
According to a 2021 study, systemic hormonal contraceptives can increase the risk of stroke and heart attack by 1.6 times.
So for a given age, more women have been increasing their stroke risk as it's been widely adopted.
Note that HRT has the same effect, so MtF have 2.8x the stroke risk of a normal man.
I suppose it means he's suppose to go to get some clinic and get an IV with the drug added to it and Kaiser in typical HoMO fashion, fucked him over.
Yeah, that's basically it. He got the authorization to use a "breakthrough therapy" and they delayed the administration due to some sort scheduling thing.
Worth pointing out that Pluvicto is a radiopharmaceutical. It's basically a ligand the with an affinity with the prostate linked together with radioactive material. Think radiation therapy from the inside out. Wouldn't surprise me if administering it had some complexity around it besides just sticking in an IV. Might require some specialists on hand. Still, no excuse.
On a separate note, Novartis just had earnings on 10/28 and dropped like 6%. If this high-profile treatment saves funny cartoon man... pretty good press...
And imagine how overstated that common trap could be if:
- Modi would increase his own popularity in India by claiming he made progress on those things
- Japanese politicians would politely nod and not tell someone to go fuck themselves, regardless of what they planned on doing.
Good thing neither of those are true or once could really jump to some conclusions! /s
Is it a good sign? No. Is it indicative of future policy? Not really.
I've always wondered if the solution was an a different type of business entity where any objectives other than profits are laid out and disclosed. For example, if they stated from the very start, "our goal is do manufacture domestically and revitalize dying American towns," with an actual strategy and limits pre-defined. Knowing this, if people invested in it, then shareholder primacy would drive the company to adhere to their mission statement, not just profit.
"We invested in this company to manufacture domestically and now you've outsourced something," could then be actionable under similar mechanism to Dodge Bros. v. Ford. A way to redefine "shareholder value" for individual organizations seems more doable than a court changing the rules around existing companies.
And ask yourself, would you actually want it overturned? Have you seen any evidence that today's CEOs should have no shareholder accountability? "Oh, we put 100% of your retirement savings into DEI, reparations and shiet. No, you don't have any recourse." They don't make them like Henry Ford anymore.
It's not a contradiction if you realize how the economy is actually structured.
Having savings doesn't count as GDP. Line go down.
Barely scraping by, while the rest of your money goes to other people who will immediately spend it counts as much GDP. Line go up.
Their ideal state is everyone being forced to spend every dollar they get. The more hands each dollar passes through, the more times it can be counted.
I did not go to school for four years and build a platform to be talked to like this.
Ooooh, you're in the [checks notes] 1/3 of people over 25 with a BS or higher. Unless maybe she took 4 years to get an AA, which we can't rule out. A credential doesn't make you suddenly better. It doesn't entitle you to respect. And to top it off, you just know it's in some high-school level degree program.
But, even though it's eclipsed by her temper tantrum, the guy sucks too. Talking to yourself to assure you that you "won" is cringe.
Just let her finish her little script about muh racism. Then pull the rug out by going back to the last thing you said and continuing your original point. She looks like a retard for going off topic because she couldn't go 5 seconds without talking and you make your original point. The lack acknowledgement for her tangent is a more "alpha" move than seeing who can talk the loudest anyway.
I will push the switch in two weeks. STAY TUNED.
