Between this and the EPA regulation rollbacks, were going to see a whole lot of bloody dead Americans.

Here's the Wikipedia article on them: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/articles/Electrolyte

For simplicity's sake, they are salts, acid, or bases that can suspend themselves in a polar liquid, like water, and can conduct electricity.

They help maintain the body's ability to hydrate, and are critical in maintaining nerve and muscle functions, since they are electric tissues.

It's also the main electrolyte ingredient in a few electrolyte drinks.

I generally reframe it from a perspective even they think they understand: Money.

Governments want their money. Less Population = Less Taxes for them to take, ergo, no government is trying to lower their population. And do they, the audience, think that the government is willing to have less money?

I don't think so!

The people who made fun of you won't be laughing when they share 50% of the blame during the damage claim phase of an accident.

Witty said that he understood people's frustrations with the health care system. Americans pay more than ever for health insurance, even as insurers are rejecting more than 1 in 5 claims.

Funny that he left out that his company is even worse than the 1 in 5 claims denied number. He understands, he just doesn't care.

Art exists solely as it is interpreted by the observer.

In this case, the observer interrupted the art as trash.

I can respect that. I basically came to the same conclusion regarding most PvP games/modes.

If I'm playing a game to have fun, and I'm not having fun, why am I still playing it?

My online friend group never really saw it my way unfortunately, but it always amuses me when we hang out in voice chat and they're getting biblical-levels of salty in a match while I'm just chilling and playing Spyro or something.

That being said, it sounds like she'd effectively turned the game streaming into her job. That'd sap the fun out of anything eventually.

It'd be funny if the officer pulled up the sovcit site, take a single look at the lunacy, and then asked if the driver wanted to open up a fraud investigation for sale of his fake paperwork.

Yeah, non-USA for this atm, as much fun as it would be to plug such a system into an apartment.

I believe that the US requires that a direct-feed system has to plug into a physical kill switch setup to prevent back-feed of power during an outage.

Still pretty neat, though!

Should have named them after Taco Bell & Doritos, honoring their work in bringing us the Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco, which has been around for 3x the time that the Confederacy lasted and arguably has had more impact.

The Doritos Taco has been around since 2012.

the Confederacy, or the South, was an unrecognized breakaway republic in the Southern United States that existed from February 8, 1861, to May 9, 1865
