All you had to do was tell me he sells his own supplements…

That’s why he loves Putin so much!!! They have the same first name!!!
It’ll be I interesting going forward. I’ve been on Wegovy since October, and have lost about 50lbs or ~15% of my body weight. I wonder if my insurance will continue to pay for if it can help me get all the way down to a healthy weight…
As I understand it, these drugs are more or less designed to be taken forever or you’re likely to gain the weight back. What good is all this doing if I have to cease the medication if I can get to a “healthy weight”?
How is this an emergency? The dealing with emergencies here (personal interpretation) would be for national security emergencies or natural disasters to allocate resources. An individual citizen’s lack of access to a medical procedure, while tragic, fails to rise to that level.
The key bit you quoted has to do with deciding how and to what degree legislation will be enforced. Also remember that this is at the federal level, not the state level. So he can issue an executive order to keep the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies from enforcing any anti-IVF laws, similar to how they’ve directed the DEA to not pursue marijuana charges in states where recreational use has been legalized. hHe cannot simply write a law into existence, which is what would be needed for what you’re asking.
Unfortunately, this is something only Congress can fix, and I’m not holding my breath.
But like I said… he can’t. There’s no “doomed to fail” about it… it’s outside his executive powers. He can’t dictate law.
Whether or not he could is largely irrelevant. Executive orders can be completely undone by the next administration. Plus I’d wager this is out of scope for an executive order. Executive orders generally have to do with operations issues with the federal government.
He can issue an executive order to limit the number of immigrants can cross the US-Mexico border per day because that’s an operational issue for an agency within the executive branch. He can’t say, “Everyone can have access to IVF”. Essentially, he’d be saying that individual states can’t make illegal, IVF procedures. That’s a legislative policy issue, and would be up to congress to pass a law that would force the states to fall in line.
That’s my understanding at least. I’m sure I’ve mucked something up in that explanation, but would wager that the overall gist of it is correct.
Wow… so my entire life. Appreciate the info.
When the fuck did that happen? That’s part of the point of a filibuster… does dude man (or dudette woman) have the fucking stones to see it through? Do they have the conviction of purpose in opposition to the motion to do what it takes to prevent it?
I wanted to say yeah… but I couldn’t be sure. Looking on her wiki page:
In 2004 Daniels won the Best New Starlet Award from Adult Video News…
Daniels was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame on January 18, 2014,[16] and was inducted into the XRCO Hall of Fame on April 16, 2014.
Don’t think she’d have those awards if she wasn’t pretty popular among her peers, and all of that was before the big scandal we’re seeing unfold now.
Hey… D stands for Diploma.
B stands for “Better than I thought I’d do.”
I live in the American South, and I’m happy to wear shorts outside at 10C (50 F), so long as it’s not windy…
Now, a jacket at 30C (86F)… that’s a bit warm for me…
F = C*(9/5)+32
If you don’t want the ratio, 9/5=1.8
To estimate the temperature conversion, multiply by 2 and add 32… then estimate a touch less… I eyeballed 10C to be 50ish before breaking out the calculator and finding it was 50 on the nose
I have a lot of strong thoughts regarding the use of therapy. Specifically that I think everyone needs a therapist… everyone. It doesn’t matter how well things are going, and you don’t necessarily have to see them weekly or even biweekly… but someone to check in with from time to time to see how things are going. That way when a struggle does occur, you’ve got a fresh disinterested perspective from someone with the training to help process certain things that go through your mind. Everyone needs someone to talk to sometimes… someone with absolutely no skin in the game who can give the painfully honest answer others might not be prepared to give.
Another suggestion is to see if he’s willing to write out his thoughts. Don’t call it journaling or keeping a diary… just writing down thoughts. It’s amazing what writing things down can do to help you process things. When my grandma passed, it was pretty devastating to me (to be clear, it was absolutely nothing like what your husband experienced). We’d been close my whole life and now more than 10 years later I still find myself blindsided by feelings of missing her. I decided to write a eulogy for her memorial service. It was immeasurably helpful for processing our relationship and what she meant to me and so many others in her life. She was pretty amazing… Maybe that’s the thing… maybe he could write a eulogy for his dad… or something like that. Idk.
It just sucks to go through life depressed and anxious. Life is too god damned short to allow your time to be hijacked by it. If he’d call a buddy to help him work on his car so it didn’t take an entire Saturday to fix, why wouldn’t he do the same to help himself not feel this way?
Good luck to the both of you.
Well, it was from around the time the song released… it unfortunately seems true. It’d be interesting if there was a way to analyze the data to see how many of the downloads were unique…
I’d be down…
I reflexively read that in Dwight’s voice.
Walmart is hilariously cheaper.
Can I ask what the problem is? I was of the understanding that the problem with TikTok was that they basically lied under oath to congress and were actively sending personal user data to China. Not sure anything but an outright ban will achieve any sort of remedy.
Couldn’t be prouder of my fellow Alabamians. Granted, you wouldn’t be out to lunch if you said that Monica Lands would have had any chance whatsoever in the areas surrounding Huntsville and Madison, but it’s pretty awesome that she won.
That’s awesome! I looked it up on Amazon. I might need to get one or two for my little shit machines.
Leeloo style.
