The expected lifespan for someone his age is about another 9 years per the SS actuarial data.

Well, in addition to his attempt to ban milfepristone, he also ruled that the Biden administration could not enact protections for transgender employees.

Why? Well, sure, Title VII protects transgender individuals from discrimination, but that doesn't mean it protects any of their conduct, actions, or anything else. So you can't fire someone for being trans, but the moment they "act" trans, present as the opposite gender, ask for you to use their pronouns, etc., it's completely different and they totally can be fired.

He's constantly choosing to selectively ignore parts of the legal code so it fits his view better. He believes he has the power to redefine words - once demanding that the lawyers on both sides use the term "unborn baby" instead of "fetus" because he says fetus is a made-up word and a liberal plot.

He also tried to overturn the ACA... In 2022.

Unlike every other judicial district in America, Northern Texas does not assign cases to any district judge at random. Instead, they limit assignments to judges who are within the division the case was filed in.

Since he's the only judge in the Amarillo Division, you can guarantee a hyperpartison super-conservative judge if you file there.

I don't even get why sugar is added. Tomato sauce is already sweet on its own.

My wife and I like to get a local brand because it's honestly the best I've ever had. Each serving (3oz, 85g) is 15 calories.

It's called sanewashing. Stop trying to interpret what he says. Just print the direct quote.

They'd get the same tax deduction by disposing of the drinks.

Agreed.

Humans can be vegan because we're omnivores. Meat isn't the only source we need to get our nutrition. Our bodies are fantastic at pulling nutrients from different food sources.

Cats and dogs are not. They are carnivores. Their bodies cannot adequately process the nutrition from non-meat sources.

Humans can also take supplements for whatever nutrients we're missing. It's much harder to get an animal to take them, especially when you're looking at how many would be required on a vegan diet.

Finally, ask any vet what foods to avoid and they will tell you that you don't want to ever give your animal those small-batch/boutique foods. They are almost never nutritionally complete since they're designed to appear appealing to the humans, not the animals. They also often aren't produced in a clean food-safe environment.

That's why they fly upwards into international space first, duh.

They opened up a MC by me about a year ago.

I was returning an item last weekend and the employee made a comment on how many times I've been there haha.

I'm all for American versions of things, but please get these staples of British cuisine right.

Kind of ironic this is where you're making a stand.

The first known use of the recipe for pig in a blanket, the American cuisine, was in 1940 by the US military.

The first known use of the recipe for pigs in blankets, the British cuisine, was in 1957 and was inspired by British soldiers who tried the American version during WWII.
