For what it’s worth, was an easy paywall to bypass. Firefox focus w/ trackers disabled and a VPN let me read it.
I read this recently (quoted in the article too). It was fascinating and explains the « why » :
Not looking to minimize of the situation or its assessment but the quotation in the article from Biden’s address actually reads:
“Hassan Nasrallah and the terrorist group he led, Hezbollah, were responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over a four-decade reign of terror. His death from an Israeli airstrike is a measure of justice for his many victims, including thousands of Americans, Israelis, and Lebanese civilians.”
It’s the killing of Hassan Nasrallah he calls “a measure of justice,” not Isreal’s attack…for what it’s worth.
Not to be super-pessimistic but the pharmaceutical industry seems to based upon encouraging awareness and promotion of name brands. Advertising and incentivizing doctors to prescribe promotes a system where the average patient has a hard time understanding and navigating, especially where the patient wants the best opportunity to treat a significant impact to their wellness.
Sport-horror could be interesting. If anyone can pull it off, it’s Peele
All of these seem like the sort of things people use when they have escape-artist horses
“Get Out” is super awesome and so important to the genre but I really prefer “Us” as a horror flick. So creepy, great pace, acting and visuals!”
Lol. Gets murkier when you’re in neither of those places and use a combo of both. I’ll stick with “closer” for now
I kinda like the funky-saurs too. They have a disheveled, extinct vibe I identify with.
Don’t worry, Canada is prepared to provide an endless honk supply should anyone be running low. 🪿🪿

If only you had paid attention you would know how to summon a president.

Its eyes, carved from the golden flesh of the fruit, are wide and expressive. The meticulous design transforms an ordinary pineapple into a representation of an owl, showcasing both nature’s and human’s artistry.

Pour One Out for Groundwater
The bottled-water company last year tried to kill legislation aimed at protecting aquifers at a time when many are at risk nationally.
