That was my reaction…like why do we know this? We should not know this.

Uh….ok?

No shit? All time? That’s quite the compliment! I don’t recall if I’ve listened to that one, I have most of them, but I’ll have to go back and check. If I haven’t listened, I’ll queue it up!

I’ve never seen the signs allowing you to opt out, so this is good info.

But to add onto this topic - what is up when 2 people walk down a designated walkway while in line and the officer follows alongside them with the dog?

Just ordered mine! Thanks, OP!

Checking this out based on your epic summary alone.

It’s also motivation. Sometimes I ask for a few sessions as a birthday present because it’s the only reason I’ll actually go to the gym. Accountability.

I’ve never even heard of it but now I’m intrigued.

This is fucking bullshit.

Can places own by Scientologists do the same thing for mental healthcare?

Behind the Bastards recently did a two-parter on Yarvin with Ed Helms as a guest. It’s depressing but good, as per usual.

I would say that in 2016, everyone was “fooled” - the Russian troll farm was something we had never seen before.

I like to think we’ve learned how to recognize those tactics by now and that we’re a bit smarter. Some of us, at least…Republicans seem to still be in their Putin controlled Q-pronoun-book banning-conspiracy theory phase.

If Elon Musk was a good person, he would buy the site and turn it into a memorial page for the victims at Sandy Hook.

But he is not a good person.

Thank you!

Never thought about it this way. Thanks!

Oh man that was fucking hilarious! Thanks for making my night!

I’m sorry if this is a stupid question, but what is the best way to refuse to do this?

Say you’re in xyz situation and a cop demands your phone. You say no. They get angry, maybe make some threats (whether true or not), etc.

What is the best way to say no, you aren’t comfortable, come back with a warrant, without pissing them off royally in such a way that things end up worse for you?

These people love killing dogs and bears and they hate cats so I’m guessing they are not nice people.

I’m not doubting at all that there are cases like this and I’m terribly sorry for your friend. I only wanted to present a different perspective for those considering having the procedure. It’s definitely not a decision that should be made lightly.

I know I’m just one person, but it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was almost legally blind without glasses/contacts, and just the stress of making sure my glasses prescription was up to date once I switched to contacts, making sure I packed glasses, contacts, extra contacts, solution, etc, for a trip, and losing 1 contact while at the store or something was instantly erased.

I could read the street signs on the highway on the way home from the surgery. I hadn’t been able to do that unaided since I was probably 10.

Do I need readers now that I’m older? Yep, just like they told me I would because everyone does because it’s a different issue that comes with aging. I wish they had a similar treatment for Presbyopia!!!

Sure, everyone’s experience is different, but it almost was akin to a miracle for me. Life changing for sure.

You love to see it.
