If he is convicted of a felony and does run for president again, then he won't be able to vote, right? Maybe it'll be an impetus to create a clearer path for convicted felons who served their time and don't reoffend to regain

Ah, now I can reply. It wasn't letting me for a while there. Probably because you repeatedly edited your comment. The study you linked says that for a certain measure, it works better according to a grand total of two studies they lo

>12-step programs are empirically superior to any alternative ... You'll want to reread your study there. For most of the criteria they measured, the conclusion was that AA performed as well as other interventions. Not better. It

Where in the article does it mention chicken meat? I see pork, beef, and prepared foods. Excess profits can be caused by any number of things. If the price of the eggs increased exactly enough to match inflation and loss from avian influe

Is it? The only source they cite for the claim of price-gouging is a group that's against large scale animal production and GMOs. They've got their own reasons to make the accusation. Honestly, it's probably true, but then

Those are some very cute donkeys! As much time as I've spent around horses and even mules, I've only really gotten to play with a couple donkeys. There's just not a lot of them around here. It's a shame. I'd have

I've honestly gone to Facebook groups nowadays. I don't love the company, but it does seem to be one of the last places I can find fellow nerds of my specific niche interests.

Unless it's changed completely since I bolted from there a couple years ago, they absolutely do. Anyone who had been using the site for more than a few weeks generally understood the difference.

People on the coasts and even in the big cities in the Midwest just can't seem to wrap their heads around the fact that a lot of us wouldn't be willing to live in New York City or California for all the money in the world. It&#x2

What's happening to lower middle class kids in Iowa? I'm honestly just confused here. To my knowledge, they're getting decent lower middle class jobs and doing fine. Maybe going off to college and moving to the coast, prob

Where do you get the idea that women are miserable due to being able to choose not to have kids early in life? That they're still miserable without kids and that they'd be more satisfied if they had children and no freedom? There

Empowerment of women made not being forced to take a husband and pop out babies an option. The birth control pill gave women a choice and a ton of them immediately jumped on it to escape from the cycle of being constantly pregnant or breas

Well, I don't have any specific examples off the top of my head, but it's not that unusual for a loanword to disappear from the language it was borrowed from and then wind up reintroduced in some form to the original language.

I'm certainly not advocating making those foods more difficult to access. Exactly the opposite, in fact. I think we need to make access to healthier food cheaper and easier. As far as there being no severe side effects, it looks like

So the article says no, then there's a paragraph about how barometric pressure predicts incoming weather and that can be felt in sensitive joints. Which is the mechanism I've always heard for it. Kind of a dime-a-dozen article fr

I can put down enough calories in a meal to make a garbage truck blush. It's not necessarily that skinny people (or somewhat squishy people who carry it discreetly in my case) don't eat all of their food. It can also be that whe

I expect they would as well. However, I was replying to a comment that claimed this drug or something similar could be the solution to obesity and I have serious doubts about that. An improvement in health and longevity, even if it's

I get where you're coming from and want to clarify that my issue is not that you may have to stay on it for the rest of your life. I'm concerned that even while on the drug, your body could get accustomed to it, and you'd end

If the weight stays off even after 10 years on the drug, then that's great in my book. Nicotine, caffeine, and bariatric surgery all reduce your appetite in the short run, but your body eventually adapts and your weight starts climbin

Are they the solution to obesity? I'm curious as to whether the weight stays off long term. 10 or more years at least or else it's just another bandaid. What we need is better access to nutritious food that doesn't take up

That was my first word on the subject. Just thought I'd pull the quote from your link that says the opposite of what you're saying. It may have originally come from statistics, altbough I don't think that's the case. T
