Large banana stuffie. Could be worse.

But not for long…

I have those! I had to turn the sound off because they go off when you move, and I’d scare myself silly.

OK, I’m not a Republican (not even an American). Am I missing a subtext to this which would make it more than a funny little story about a child being worried that six is too late in life for a career change?

My money’s on enthusiastic handshakes and cheering. Source: old movies.

Or the fever happened to come down on its own.

You’re not.

Where did she grow up?

I envy you.

For all intensive porpoises, we should create a care-free environment.

What do people say wrong istead of “sneek peek”?

He’s got plenty of goons. Unless these specific goons serve a purpose, I doubt he’ll spare a thought for them.

I imagine he’ll let them out if it serves him in some way, and he won’t if it doesn’t. It’s not like he gives a damn about them.

And my comment is that, with deregulation, you probably won’t be sure about the content, quality, or dosage of legal drugs. If it were properly regulated, you’d be safe.

Also, nowhere did I imply that you agree with his approach. You asked a question and I answered it. I don’t have any opinion about your opinion about him. I gave you my opinion about him, the incoming administration, and the upcoming fallout.

The worst part is that they really didn’t, they just didn’t know that they didn’t. They won’t realize for a while (until it affects them personally). Some never will.

I doubt that. Erasing stigma is an important step in researching these drugs. Reclassification so that they are accessable for research is another. However, proper regulation is required so that you know what you’re getting and in the right dosage. The incoming administration want more deregulation. That will mean that quality of supply will be less reliable.

We are still dealing with increaing outbreaks of foodborne illness because of deregulation from the last Trump government. And this affects more than just Americans. I’m in Canada, but because we import food from the US, we are also exposed to these illnesses. My immunocompromised sister had a bout of listeria from food that she should have been able to trust. (I can’t remember which food at the moment). I still have granola bars in my home that I haven’t disposed of yet which were part of a separate recall.

Proper regulation works quietly for the average person. When it’s working correctly, you don’t notice the myriad of ways that you’re kept safe every day. It’s when it fails that we notice.

No, he won’t. Or he might, ostensibly, but they will never be propery researched and they will never be properly regulated, so you won’t really know what you’re getting or how it should be administered, so good luck with that.

The only thing you can reliably count on with the incoming administration is that whatever they are doing, they are doing to make themselves and their friends wealthier, at the expense of the rest of the public. Unfortunately, that doesn’t only mean finacial expense.

Company affirmations and cheerleading. Things like that. And they would browbeat employees. Massive social pressure to conform and to make the company part of your identity.

Nope, “cult” is not too strong a word. Those are cult tactics.
