Johnvanjim, in Carrefour puts ‘shrinkflation’ price warnings on food to shame brands

Love the French, go get those corpos!

ImplyingImplications, in Judge delays trial for Trump, others in Georgia 2020 election prosecution

Georgia will likely run into more problems like this. Their RICO case against Trump and his gang of bandits is massive, involving 19 defendants charged with racketeering, 41 predicate offences split across the 19 defendants in order to prove they were involved in racketeering. Not every predicate offence involves every defendant. Most of these predicate offenses involved many more people than the 19 defendants and happened entirely outside of Georgia. Several of the predicate offenses focus on speech and political activities which is going to be incredibly difficult to argue isn’t protected by the first amendment.

This case is massive and messy which means it’ll probably be a very long time until it ends.

I wish Jesus was real so he could visit this hateful harridan and tell her just how badly she misinterpreted his teachings.

If Jesus came back the same people that rever him would nail him back on the cross and tell him to shut the fuck up.

neptune, in Hunter Biden Indicted on Federal Firearms Charges

So do we finally get SCOTUS to rule on drugs and gun ownership?

RandAlThor, in Judge delays trial for Trump, others in Georgia 2020 election prosecution

This sounds like a win for Trump. 😒

quindraco,

This was always guaranteed to happen once Chesebro and Powell asked for their trials to be speedier.

So much for the report that they wanted to tone down the craziness of the campaign to make her more electable.

Izzgo, in Rite Aid prepares bankruptcy filing, store closures amid opioid lawsuits

The preparations come after the company was sued by the US government in April over its failure to detect what the Department of Justice called "red flags" around its filling of prescriptions for opioids and other painkillers.

No wonder my pharmacist balks at my prescription for Vicodin. And meanwhile, I'm in too much pain to sleep, just from lumbar back pain & sciatica.

CmdrShepard,

Do you also bring in Vicodin prescriptions from 7 other doctors and refill them all at the same time?

Izzgo,

Hell no. I have a low dosage script, doc monitors closely and I don't abuse. I don't WANT to take pain meds regularly, but I must sleep, so I take my small dosage 3-4 times a week at bedtime. Then I sleep with less pain, not zero pain. But because it's ongoing for years, occasionally I end up on some pharmacist radar. Last time I had to pay out of pocket, they said insurance wouldn't cover this time.

Oh man that’s terrible all around. Sorry to hear/read you are going through that Izzgo! A friend of mine had some kind of nerve searing procedure that helped with that kind of pain, any options in that space?

Izzgo,

Nerve searing, never heard of that! I may have to look into it, thanks for the info :)

edit Ahhhh Google tells me it's called nerve ablation, sounds interesting. Much appreciate the info.

If it was a reputable theater she would have had her own Booth.

passepartout, in Rep. Lauren Boebert was escorted out of 'Beetlejuice' over reports of rude behavior

I honestly can’t remember when I heard that name the last time since i don’t use reddit anymore.

admiralteal,

Honestly, it's probably best to remember these people if you're politically engaged. They're the ones representative of the future of the Republican party. They're the ones who are pushing for all this fact-free Biden impeachment stuff. They're the ones who want to make sure teens are pregnant and trans people are dead. They're a window into a future of the country -- what little we have given their idea of governance -- that will happen if we let them.

So embarrassing.

kirklennon, in "It serves no purpose, it is unjust:" 63 Australian politicians urge US to let WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange walk free

Julian Assange, in addition to being a rapist, is objectively pro-Putin and pro-authoritarian. To be pro-Putin is also to be very anti–free press. He’s absolute garbage and these people are begging for his freedom? I’m so very glad nobody of consequence in the US government has any sympathy for this guy. If he hadn’t spent nearly a decade on the lam, he might already be finished with his US prison sentence, assuming he was convicted. Of course if he hadn’t waited out the statute of limitations, he’d also have to serve his Swedish rape prison sentence. At any rate, nobody should advocate for him except his own lawyers. These Australian politicians are throwing away their own dignity to appeal to the laziest, most insufferably ignorant of their constituents.

He embarrassed them. It will never happen.

Boddhisatva, in Elizabeth Warren Demands Probes of Elon Musk, SpaceX After Ukraine Revelations

So how did this go down anyway? First, I heard that Musk deactivated his already active satellites in the region and thus disrupted the attack. This article suggests that the satellites were not active in the region and Musk simply refused to activate them.

Which is true because those are very different scenarios. In one, he used his authority to disrupt one government's actions against another, thereby taking sides in the conflict. In the other, he refused to take an action that would help one side against the other, thereby refusing to take sides.

Knowing what I know of Musk, I'm currently assuming he is a Russian asset and helped them, but I'd like to know for sure.

Traitor? Agent of a foreign power? Whatever it is, cutting him down a notch will be good for humanity.
