  i know most of you don't know what anonymous is or what the real 4chan is, but both are saying that their global meta data is pointing that now with south korean elections going to a pro war candidate (moon, who is a psycho) and china saying there may be no other solution, north korea will strike first before the end of this year.

  japan has called up reserves.

  take it with a grain of salt.

  Trolls, disseminators of fake stories made up by various intelligence agencies, neo-nazis, basement-dwellers, "alphur-male" virgins and the mentally ill? Am I close?

  but both are saying that their global meta data

  "Global meta data". Would that be wikipedia and made up crap?

  is pointing that now with South Korean elections going to a pro war candidate (Moon, who is a psycho)

  I like how you run away the moment someone asks you to substantiate any of these claims :-).

  Trolls copy-pasted from 4chan has a 100% failure record on this site; to take the two most recent ones, the photoshopped Macron offshore account and the "omg Muslims!" story about how Sweden was censoring its internet which turned out to be 100% fake news (it was a British newspaper which, according to itself, blocked out a story in Sweden to not interfere with an ongoing trial).

  Heck, I notice you have the good sense to not post a link to whatever crap you are referencing ;-).

  Thanks to my brain not working well on a Sunday I can't recall what the spoiler was :-).

  I just caught the first episode of "American Gods". Looks promising so far with some interesting writing and cinematography; the scene in the cemetery was some pretty awesome acting IMO.

  A sister in our car group was at the door and had ignored her 4-year-old's pleas that he had to go. The lady came to the door and saw the sister's son peeing in her bookbag..........!

  That young boy has a bright future in the writing department!

  I think the analysis for why the US system is so screwed is pretty simple.

  Since healthcare is a for-profit business, the companies which offer healthcare has as their primary interest to make a profit.

  That means (a) overcharging (b) getting rid of people who cost money (those who are ill).

  Those two things cannot be fixed by the free market because they are happening because of the free market; the only way to fundamentally change this is by imposing rules, one way or the other.

  ttdtt: One can hope, but it seems that people in the know are insistent it will only need 50 votes in the senate due to the reconciliation process provided the right magic spells are said.

  Well, the reason why the US healthcare system is so screwed is because of the law; after all, it is pretty much the same "big pharma" countries that operate everywhere in the world. Therefore, going back to "The US healthcare system is screwed so what law is in effect doesn't matter" is not exactly fixing anything.

  Obamacare had consequences, and so will the AHCA... what those consequences are is difficult to say because the legislative process was sped up so nobody would be able to learn about them in full but it seems like it will mean a lot of people will lose coverage.

  I can't believe it is considered acceptable in the US to make changes to 1/6th of the economy, affecting millions of lives in dramatic ways, when those changes have not been properly scored, reviewed or even read by the people who vote on them...

  No CBO score, text not public for three days as Trump promised, nobody who voted for it has read it and the saved money will be used for tax cuts for the ultra rich... The icing on the cake is that being sexually assaulted is now a preexisting condition, you could not make this up if you tried.

  If I was an American I would be pretty pissed, but I guess Trump-apologists will remain puzzled about why people, women in particular, protest Trump.

  Anyone know it chances in the senate? From what I gather, they only need 50 votes and it is expected to pass no?

  hello.

  i was wondering if someone could tell me where i might find the example of a young jw standing in front of the class to (boldly) defend creation vs. evolution.. i would like to contrast it with the example from the "bible teach" book about the student challenging the teacher,.

  i believe there was an illustration of a young boy standing up in the classroom for his "beliefs".. thanks..

  Yah, a girl. I think it was supposed to be set in South America, but my memory is fuzzy. I remember being a bit surprised they were pushing the "life where did it come from" book

  Smiddy: no this one was way older. I know because i was living at my old place so it must have been at least five years. Actually i would guess 2010. But I got a feeling they are reprinting this stuff all the time
