Propranolol suppresses most of the physiological warning signs of hypoglycemia.

But not the hypoglycemia itself, obviously.

The public is howling for blood and the opposition party not only can't find it in themselves to oppose things, they are incandescent with rage toward the members of their party who are actively trying. That kind of says everything, doesn't it?

"Women accounted for all of the job losses and all of the labor force decline in July."

The overall labor numbers are still horrible but this? This is working as intended by the regime.

I'm increasingly convinced of this "everyone has cognitive impairment because of COVID" theory.

Pro-Israel Democrats need to get it through their heads that theirs is the fringe extremist view. It's over. It's not going away, everyone knows they sold out, and no one believes their bullshit anymore. They can suck up to AIPAC or they can win elections.

The reason I'll never be isekaied is understanding all the tropes of the fantasy universe will make me unbearable to deal with. I can barely play fantasy games as it is without jaded snickering about the bad writing and hackneyed plot.

"here's a fun lil exercise for cis people: how many articles would a publication have to print calling for your extermination before you would expect people who care about you to stop giving them money? and how would you feel if their excuse for still supporting them is some fuckass crossword puzzle?"

In my experience, it's the fully comprehensible man-made horrors that are the worst.

Unfathomable cosmic eldritch beings aren't the ones fucking us all over.

When this is all over, I kind of want to infect RFK, Jr. with every disease known to man, stick him in an isolation tank, and when he begs for help, just tell him to eat better and exercise more.

All AC does is pump the heat back out into the environment where it came from.

"But the coolant is a greenhouse gas!"

Yes, but under normal circumstances, your AC unit should never be leaking it into the environment.

The bigger problem is where the electricity comes from but most of us don't have a choice about that anyway.

It's awfully rich when countries that burn methane in winter like there's no tomorrow complain about these things.

"AC just pumps the heat outside!"

Yes, that's the entire point.

"But won't that make things worse?!"

No? Look, if it's already hot outside, it doesn't fucking matter. The heat from your AC unit is negligible. If you live in the city, the amount of concrete causes more of a heat island effect than AC does.

At its base, the anti-trans movement is about ensuring AFAB people are desirable and available to cis-het men to fuck and that AMAB people either uphold this system or be killed in every way it is possible to be killed. No one is allowed to escape or cross that imaginary line.

People try to confuse the issue but anti-trans is anti-queer, it's anti-abortion, it's Epstein, it's pedophiles, it's misogyny all the way down. That's why all these groups work together.

Fuck. You've got Democrats out here pushing data centers because that's what the money is telling them to do, and it's only slowly starting to dawn on them that voters HATE data centers.

My recollection of the COVID lockdowns was they came too late and weren't enough and didn't last long enough but they were still the smartest and most humane thing I had seen this country ever do. So it's perplexing to me how many people treat it like the Year From Hell even when they didn't lose anyone or anything.

Nope. Still randomly bursting into tears.

Some people are way too enamored with the power of boycotts in a world where there are like 12 corporations that make and control everything you need to live.

It was darkly funny when Kamala Harris called the US "the deadliest military on Earth" instead of the most powerful or the most effective. And even if we're not the deadliest, we're definitely up there! Actually winning wars, though? We really suck at that part. Unfortunately, that has never stopped us.

I've said this before but Trump won a comfortable but marginal victory in 2024, against an opponent who did everything she could to sabotage herself, and the entire media-political landscape treated him like Reagan 2.0, like his win was a massive sea change in favor of fascist politics which even the "heroic" Democrats were forced to embrace.

And here he is two years later, the least popular president in modern history, and absolutely no one has decided to rethink that assessment.

It's been like 80 years since "Harry Potter" was a thing, which makes product tie-ins seem particularly desperate and sad even if they are feeding money into JK Rowling's hate machine. It's like being a fan of the nappies and baby food you had as an infant. Get over it, you sad sacks.
