I don’t like the idea of having to sell my bodily fluids because otherwise I couldn’t afford to eat, it made my just rage a little extra hard at how fucked up the whole system is. I guess I can’t say I have many complaints about the actual extraction process, they made it about as painless as you could hope for. You sit there for like an hour scrolling hexbear or whatever while the machine takes your blood out, spins it around to separate out the plasma and puts the rest of it back into you.

I’ve done it before but only when really desperate, I don’t really like doing it and I never did it more than like once a month, even though you’re allowed to do 2 times a week

I think it’s a legality thing, if it weren’t illegal I’m sure there would be places buying the whole blood too.

I will take a referral, I’ve been trying to get some supplemental income since my work cut back my hours. Thanks!

Hopefully for real this time!

I’m actually surprised it took so long for somebody to give this response lol

Not everything is a conspiracy

China is conspiring to get the USA’s population addicted to drugs

You’re aware that you’re the one pushing a conspiracy theory over the simpler explanation of the media operating along its normal and well known biases?

Excellent points, and definitely aligns with my own thoughts, I just figured with how much the media hounds on this being a border issue that they’re probably also lying about it in the first place / the stuff is being manufactured here to begin with.

Ah I never knew that, thanks for filling me in.

Why Sao Paulo? Was he traveling when he had the stroke?

China used to run school for revolutionaries from around the world, and they should do that again tbh

Like tasty food mushrooms or magic mushrooms

Definitely not paying to read somebody complain about woke, also, shame he isn’t as cool as his dad

What’s the correct usage, apart from referring to actual cargo cults in the pacific islands?

Doesn’t look like he actually posted this, rather, it seems Bad Empanada made it up and posted it as if it were true.

I kind of really dislike when this happens, because I’ll believe it and show it to somebody and they’ll check, see that it’s fake and I lose credibility. Mileis actual posts and interviews are bad enough, if we’re gonna make things up it should be clearer that it’s satire (I guess I should have known with how ridiculous this is but then again Milei is totally ridiculous so it’s not clear that it’s satire).

Im not sure if I’ve seen that as one poll done by the same group across both countries, but I’ve definitely seen those numbers and it was like 70%+ of Chinese and much lower for the U.S.

Edit: here’s one, it’s higher than I remembered for China, 83% of respondents to a poll in 2022 said the PRC is a democracy with 91% saying that democracy is important to them.

Thanks for this post and your comments in the thread, I can definitely relate as somebody who has a pretty nasty case of ADHD, and everything you’ve shared about RSD tracks closely with my own experience.

I’m quite sure that Gagarin actually landed after going to space, not like he’s still up in the air somewhere. Having to be in the launch craft when you land is such a ridiculous technicality lmao nobody should take that seriously. Like he went to space and came back, and he was the first person to do so, nobody can dispute that.

Trump said that years ago, guess Trump is more modern than Lula

Independent likely means in this context not associated with the government or party.
