@PerilousPeg@SmokyMountainsX@Starlink@elonmusk I'm in the boonies, too, and our landline is about to get canceled. Totally unreliable, and Ziply just hiked our bill to $113/month. I have unlimited talk and text on my tracfone for $20/month.
@PerilousPeg@SmokyMountainsX@Starlink@elonmusk Does she have a friendly neighbor close enough to get wifi from? Just a thought, but if one of my elderly neighbors needed to use my internet for reliable phone service, I would share mine.
@Ginak416@Lusticles@SmokyMountainsX@Starlink@elonmusk The starling has a heating feature that keeps it clear. Ours has never had an outage from snow built up and we have the original dishy round one. We've actually never had a significant outage at all in the years we've had it. Not sure how the newest ones perform, though.
@OFX039@EwardJessica@the2ndmoore@ABC Strawman don't equate to double-standards. You are comparing apples to oranges.
Body image concerns and equal pay are two different issues. Just because they can both involve a certain popular toy does not make them the same issue.
@jimmarquis9@ABC I think you missed the word "historic" in the post. She would not be one of the highest paid athletes she had not actively fought for equal pay for many years.
@robinhobb @DevinRasche @paolini I've been reading a bunch of AM material, and it's great stuff. I especially loved the Freedoms Landing series. I wish there were more of them. I only ever read her Dragonriders of Pern series when I was younger.
Science is now substantiating what indigenous peoples already knew with deep breathing.
Science is now proving how “deep breathing” has a direct effect on Vagas nerve stimulation —this nerve is responsible, and helps regulate the nervous system's response to stress, shifting the body from a "fight-or-flight, survival mode state of mind,” to a calmer "rest-and-digest state, relaxing in a more creative mindset.”
This is a technique that US Special Forces adopted in their tactics, (warriors) they use a box breathing technique that allows, and helps regulate breathing, allowing to regulate their cognitive function!
Let’s just call it what it is: racism, plain and loud. Juanita Broaddrick, your post about Rep. Jasmine Crockett wasn’t just disrespectful; it was drenched in the kind of racial hostility that women of color in power have had to deal with for far too long.
You didn’t criticize her policy. You didn’t engage with her arguments. You went straight for her appearance, her hair, and tried to degrade her with the same tired, racist tropes that have always been used to silence strong Black women. That’s not commentary; it’s cowardice masked as wit.
You’re not clever. You’re not insightful. You’re a disgrace, clinging to your 15 minutes of infamy by attacking a woman who’s doing what you never had the courage or integrity to do: speak truth, fight back, and demand justice.
This isn’t about politics. This is about decency, and you just showed the world you have none.
@RepJasmine I got your back!
@driscoll1142@mmpadellan What courts? They are being denied due process. That kind of negates the need for courts. It's also unconstitutional, but I guess you only apply that where it's convenient, too.
@broadwaybabyto People never criticize having a landline, either. But,I have both due to living in the boondocks, and the landline costs me way more per month than my cell, like 4 times as much. I payed $20 for my daughter's cell, and her plan is less than $20 every three months.
@TheFatAmerican@Smanthecan@zdch@seanmdav Why do you keep saying we can't deport people? That is simply not the case. People are deported after a hearing where they are allowed to prove they have reason to be here, or can ask to be allowed to stay. When they cannot prove that, they are deported.
@DeanWar72224151@RussLatino Why do men get their panties in a wad over somebody else's opinion or story, then claim it's women who are emotional? You all sound like farthing emotional manbabies out here in birdworld name-calling like grade school bullies because they have no argument.
@ameyjhotmailco1@shackstarclone@tanyalounging@DrEricDing Yeah and none of them should be ingested or injected like he was talking about in the speech. For someone who says they didn't vote for him, you sure are being deliberately obtuse and argumentive.
