Yes. You are correct. On reflection I should have put quotes around it as it was intented to convey that but not actually imply that it was the case. It is good you called it out.

What source can you cite that shows that children in poverty primarily source their calories from soft drinks/soda and now will be at greater risk of nutritional deficit specifically as a result of this tax?
Food poverty is clearly related to cost of living issues and social inequity all greatly exacerbated by Brexit, not a tax on sugar.

Philanthropy is just the wealthy justifying their tax avoidance by wanking publically about how giving they are. If they were genuine about their concerns for giving back, they would pay their fucking taxes and at a higher rate. Tax avoidance and financial shit fuckery like corporate bailouts, share buy backs and COVID payments accelerate wealth acruell and drive up inflation and wage stagnation. Fuck. Them. All.
Mother Theresa would have fucking loved all this shit.
Well…from what I saw and how the ermm “procedure” was described…the sphincter. Think of a torus and intersect it with another torus 90 degrees to it’s central plane but positioned at it’s top. The piercing did not project into the anal verge but rather protruded along side it. Now I know what you’re thinking: “How the everlovin’ fuck do you keep that clean?!” Well, I can assure you they also wrestled with that problem. It was…well… as you can imagine the stuff of nightmares.
I saw a butt piercing; an eyelid stud; a weighted frenulum chain (think bike lock); a full back brand ; and vulva “Sarlac Pit” tattoo all in the 90s. Everyone had something. I was an outlier in my career at the time in not having any tattoos or piercings or body mods. No judgement on those who did, just wasn’t for me.
And of course they put aside enough money to have their corpses removed and all the rubbish they took up with them…right? Self indulgent, ego stroking narcissism is what this is. They could have used their wealth to help community development programs in Nepal and pushed for making Everest a restricted world heritage site.
That anywhere else is better.
Random toilet thought: I wonder if doing that with your cat actually builds some familial bond with them different from the habituated human that they may perceive us to be. Specifically an actually pride member coparticipating in hunting. To be honest I reckon they probably think we’re cramping their style and would prefer that we simply fuck off and get some catnip.
I think you make a good case for making energy production a public utility. Private ownership of essential services is ethically bankrupt. The fact that a company can fail and leave people without core services, is disgusting in my opinion. Even more disgusting is that they almost always seek public funds to bail them out.
You did a very excellent thing looking out for this doglet. As to the yelling at the owners; if it’s hyperbole then all’s well. If in fact you did yell at them, then that can foster resentment that can often be deflected to other things like said woofer. If these owners are recalcitrant in looking after this animal, then offer to take her off their hands and place her in a more loving environment. Once she is secure, persue her former owners and dissembowel them with a cement trowel and wear their entrails like Mardi gras bling. Have a wonderful day and peace be with you.
The board, CEOs and senior executives of these leeches need to be standing in line holding their wicker baskets.
This is Russian fabricated, disinformation ground work for a post election narrative that sows the seeds of doubt about Russian interference; obsfucates the actual bad actors in all of this; and the fomenting of another rightwing insurrection in the US. Taibbi has offered no evidence and is clearly aligned with the GRU 2014-2018 program goals (Czech depot ,Salisbury, US 2016 election, et al). Why is there no mention of the Russian unmonitored “tour” of the White House by Trump post 2016 election? The visitation of GOP senators to Russia on July 4th 2018? I mean, really?!
In what fucking universe is putting secure military communications under the control of a private entity a good idea?
I think it was a great use of the word! Anybody seeking to expand their vocabulary is top shelf in my book.
I just think that spicy tea would help to spread the death a bit better.
I think the implication is that the tea might have been glowing. No window required.

The rest of the world is both scared and resentful that we have to give a fuck about American politics.
I say that respectfully of our American brothers and sisters who are no doubt anxious as well.
Tangentially related question: What is this American aversion to using the word “hell”?
So far, soooo good.
