But that’s not what that statement says.
I read the OP again. I read your statement again. I’m not seeing a different meaning than the one I came away with and commented on originally.
What are you saying the statement says that my comments contradict?
that would withhold Medicaid funding from states that ban IVF, but it was blocked by Democrats.
Withholding Medicaid funding doesn’t seem like a great idea. But on the whole being against banning IVF seems like a good idea. Am I missing something?
Republicans don’t want to secure IVF and don’t want to pay for Medicaid. GOP state’s would happily block IVF to get Medicaid defunded.
This is my new head canon.
Embarrassment suggests he has a sense of shame. He has already conducted a number of shameful acts already (taking gifts) without any sense he’s embarrassed.
There were multiple weddings that day. That was from a prior ceremony for bit players that weren’t important to the story.
Putin is having some money troubles of his own right now. Banks in China are refusing to complete bank transactions with russia.
The rate isn’t too bad actually, but when your household is a larger consumer anyway and you’re charging 2 EVs consumption gets up there. We have also switched to an induction stove, heat pump water heater, added a heat pump dryer, and just recently had our gas furnace ripped out and a cold climate heat pump put in for the HVAC.
With all of that the electricity usage the bill goes up, but we can wipe it out with solar and now we don’t have natural gas bills or gasoline costs for transportation. The up front costs can be high with this approach, but the monthly bills are nearly non-existent.
The rate around here is now down to $0.22/kWh. We were occasionally getting electricity bills around $400/month at worst, but we haven’t had an electrical bill since April of this year with our solar panels on the roof now.
Yep, for decades. They used to be much larger consuming the space of a large table. Now they are small units like this:
Just search for “surface mount rework” or the nickname “hot air pencil”.
Immortality
Immortality seems like a good idea, but there’s going to be a LONG time from when the last living thing dies out to the heat death of the universe where you’ll finally join non-existance. EONs of nothing to do likely floating in a vacuum or being trapped on all sides by rock/debris. No thanks.
I always thought the “fix” to a traditional soldiering iron was a hot air pencil.
Sorry for the long story, just sitting here late in bed not knowing what I should do.
First, don’t put much weight in what me, as an internet stranger, is saying.
I do see a psychiatrist
That’s a much better source of advice.
However, if it were me, I would not have him in my life. You have your own family and likely career. Imagine what he might do to both of those things. You said he has accused you of physically abusing him. Could you imagine him showing up at your employer saying those things and how that would affect your life? From what you’re describing he hasn’t changed a bit over all of these years. If you feel absolutely driven to do something for him, offer to pay for him to see a therapist. However, I don’t recommend even this. I’m reminded of the quote:
“When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” - Maya Angelou
He’s chosen his path in life. Don’t let his poor choices negatively affect your life and your wife.
I can’t make long distance calls anymore. Anyone else having problems with their Blue Box?
I like The Loss (S04E10) where Troi loses her mental abilities and has a crisis about actually having to know how to do her job. Bonus is that early in the episode even with her powers, she was dishing out surface level platitudes to a patient who was clearly unimpressed.
How long has it been since you’ve watched that episode? What you’re describing doesn’t match what I remember about the patient behavior.
The first scene Troi had saved one of the patient’s dead husband’s keepsakes that the patient was overjoyed to receive back as a reminder of her lost loved one. The scene where patient was unimpressed, the second scene with that patient and was after she’d lost her powers. Troi was claiming the patient was in denial and not addressing the issue and the patient dismissed Troi’s analysis. The final scene with the patient was when Troi still didn’t have her powers back, and the patient admitted that (powerless) Troi had correctly read the situation and that the patient was now thankful that Troi gave the advice about denial. Only after this did Troi get her powers back.
Full synopsis of that episode here if you want to look at it.

Only 4% of marketers overall think X ads provide “brand safety” — certainty that their ads won’t appear alongside extreme content —
The 4% may represent lumpy pillow manufacturers, sellers of freeze dried survival food, random cryptocurrency products, and Trump 2024 flag/tshirt providers.
The spokesperson added that X’s “brand safety rate is on average 99%, as validated by DoubleVerify and Integral Ad Science,” companies that analyze the value of digital advertising placements.
“But that 1% remaining will have your products featured next to ads denying the holocaust, hate speech against LGBTQ+ communities, and ads discrediting proven science in favor of, oh I don’t know, phrenology or something” -the spokesperson probably
Finally a way to experience the “center fold” in the original authentic format.
To people joining this thread later asking where a commercial product of this is, or pointing out that 10% solar efficiency is way below other existing products, you’re missing the point.
This is basic research to prove one single aspect of solar panel construction. That question apparently was: “We currently know that PET backsheets work for solar panels, but can we use a different material which may have less CO2 impact and still produce a working solar panel?” The answer being “yes”. That is a big step that other people doing other research and product development can build on. It may be years (or never!) that a product comes to market with sisal fiber backsheets, but the answers from the work done here are integrated into the body of knowledge that will produce the next improvement in solar panels.
They lose points for not fully adopting mixer tap technology.
I see your confusion: (many) Republicans want to ban IVF.
Look at the title of this post we’re in. “Republicans block Senate Democrats’ IVF bill”. That bill protects IVF, and the republicans shot it down.
