make nearly no money from the drug so there is no reason to tell people it's one dollar a pill it also works on opioids also the war on drugs is a massive failure and the us desperately needs to fix

earth's orbit it missed us by nine days it would have taken out most of our electronics worldwide and taken us up to ten years to recover bear in mind electronics means everything from redid and tv to our power and water supplies i have bought some extra tins of beans just in case the us is actively aiding saudi bombings of yemen and they target pretty indiscriminately no one in the media wants to mention that the sperm count in men has halved over the last 40 years that is too short of a time to be a genetic mutation so it must be due to another influence there are some educated guesses like hormones and the water bpa in plastics basically acts like a synthetic hormone and none of those educated guesses are good news i know a lot of people say so what earth has overpopulated already which i guess could be true depending on how you look at it but the fact that something is causing the male body to drop half of its sperm production is worrying even if you don't look at it from a reproductive point of view it means there is something seriously going wrong with hormones i feel like the vast majority of people real people in the world not redditers seem to not have any idea what net neutrality is or why it's important and that freaks me out an iceberg the size of delaware has broken off of antarctica a hole the size of maine has opened in the middle of antarctica giant

patenting of life limiting liberty and the corporate pursuit of seeds for more info i live in central massachusetts back when i was a kid i remember spending summer evenings chasing fireflies around my grandmother's backyard maybe even catching some in jars and watching them do their thing for a while before letting them go i also remember watching slugs crawl around during the summer occasionally poking them to see what they'd do one time my cousin picked one up and put it in his sister's hair she completely lost her mind it was pretty hilarious i haven't seen a single firefly or slug in probably 15 maybe 20 years i don't know what caused them to leave the area but that seems like it's probably kind of a big deal android security not many people realize what their apps are doing in the background so many apps need permission to do this and that but in reality they don't need 90 of what they ask for species are dying off at a rate 10 000 times background levels we are in the middle of the sixth major extinction on this planet the increasing rate of older people lacking any sort of retirement funds because of this people are working longer into their life and it hasn't will definitely cause problems for the younger generations as there are less jobs this also causes a lot of problems with social security and medicare i think this is the biggest economic problem that is completely ignored new technology and innovations will continue reduce the amount of workers needed to produce goods and thus jobs will start to dry up even you are beginning to replace intellectual jobs early lawyer job market is gonna go through a serious mackey over in the next 30 years the district attorney in new orleans issued fake subpoenas for years to get victims of crime to come to his office and coerce testimony if they didn't comply he would get an arrest warrant from a judge by stating that they failed to appear no one bothered to check if the subpoenas were legal in many cases the victims did more jail time than their attackers you're supposed to see a judge within 72 hours of arrest one person was jailed for 89 days without seeing a judge because they weren't in the actual system it was up to the da's office to comply they used jail for compliance in some cases they just held him in jail until it was time to testify and then compel them by bringing them down to the courthouse orange jumpsuit and shackles how much misinformation that needs to be debunked the internet gave everyone a voice but most of them are dumb and uninformed why most college kids are

middle east first the crown prince has essentially purged all rivals rumor is the pm of lebanon is essentially being held hostage by sarin now bahrain kuwait and the uae are advising citizens to leave lebanon immediately the u.s retirement crisis if we think it's bad that baby boomers won't leave their jobs imagine how bad it'll be when jen says won't either it's not reasonable to expect every american adult to save hundreds of thousands for an undetermined later date one people have financial crises such as medical bills or being unemployed that must be addressed before any long-term saving and two it's totally against human nature for every single person to think and plan that far in advance like all other developed countries we need a system that ensures retired persons can at least meet their basic food shelter needs social security was intended to help with this but we always hear that we can't count on ss to be around and w desperately need people to retire so the younger generations can join the workforce our system of 401ks no pensions and mega social security support is a failure the private prison industry in america it's basically legal slavery and it is

safest time in history and bad eating habits are more likely to kill you than criminals terrorists and enemy soldiers it is possible that the usa has already entered into a cold civil war and we won't realize it until it is too late the culture wars are not guaranteed to not escalate beyond our control i am convinced the media really really needs to stop making perpetrators of atrocities famous mental illness and the stigma associated with it the lack of discussion of mental illness in conjunction with gun control is abysmal we keep saying so and so was mentally ill but nothing gets done the barclay pit in butte montana is going to be one of the largest natural disasters in us history and we have barely more than two years to remedy it direct quote from wiki the pit and its water present a serious environmental problem because the water with dissolved oxygen allows pyrite and sulfide minerals in the ore and wall rocks to decay releasing acid when the pit water level eventually reaches the natural water table estimated to occur by around 2020 the pit water will reverse flow back into surrounding groundwater polluting into a silver bow creek which is the headwaters of clark fork river one the acidic water in the pit carries a heavy load of dissolved heavy metals in fact the water contains so much dissolved metal up to 187 ppm clue that some material is mined directly from the water montana has known about this problem since 1980. what have they done in the last 35 years to solve this issue they open up a gift shop and a platform so you can pay two dollars to slowly watch western montana and eastern idaho's water table be destroyed reading through all the [ __ ] in this thread i can't help but feel like we're heading towards bronze age collapse too electric boogaloo the cia has flat out admitted that even though culture was discontinued mind control experimentation still occurs under a different cod name ending culture was just to get the public to stop paying

pollinator species going extinct this has catastrophic implications for life as we know it the warning signs have been there for decades human activity is suspected to be the main cause south african farmer being killed in random attacks news outlet hardly make any mention of it edit didn't mean to put random i meant sporadic across the year wrote the comment early in the morning when my internal thesaurus wasn't working properly the people of flint michigan haven't had clean drinking water since the 24th of april 2014. some other thread had a comment mentioning that some of the female actresses from the wb show smellville are apparently involved in some sort of cult masquerading as a self-help program based out of albany ny sounded far-fetched but after looking into it there are a bunch of claims backing up the story dating back over a year obviously this isn't super important but the whole thing kind of blew my mind and would be crazy if true apparently alison mack blonde chick from smellville is like the number two person in the organization they apparently brand their members with a symbol that includes her initials and they worship some dude who claims to have the highest iq ever i mean i guess consenting adults are free to do what they want but the whole thing seemed really predatory and bizarre that being said i'd get on board if it meant getting to hook up
