[01:04]	MinceR	> The concern is that these organisms would evade both the immune systems of all natural life forms, and any human defences such as antibiotics, thus posing an existential risk to life.
[01:05]	MinceR	yeah, but could they interface with the cells of non-mirror lifeforms?

[03:51]	IsambardPrince	admfubar, Jewel-Osco just looks at the GoodRX price and price matches it instead of running it through the PBM.
[03:51]	IsambardPrince	Then they have to give you that price and pay GoodRXs PBM $3 for doing nothing.
[03:52]	IsambardPrince	When you run thousands of prescriptions per pharmacy through GoodRX every month, it adds up. Might as well just lower your price when a customer shows you the coupon.

[04:11]	IsambardPrince	Who goes to a doctor over a splinter?
[04:11]	IsambardPrince	Grab some tweezers.
[04:12]	IsambardPrince	I got so many splinters in my hands from trying to climb that fence in our back yard at the first house I lived in with my parents.
[04:12]	IsambardPrince	The wood was all rotten and warped and the fence had half fallen over, and my dad was the cheapest most incompetent homeowner ever, so it was never going to be fixed.
[04:13]	IsambardPrince	Mom was over visiting the neighbor and pulling splinters out of my hands while she was talking with them.
[04:13]	IsambardPrince	I never climbed that fence again.
[04:14]	IsambardPrince	One day a strange man appeared on the other side of the fence, there was a utility right of way back there.
[04:14]	IsambardPrince	He asked me to go get my mother.
[04:15]	IsambardPrince	It turned out he was a private investigator for an insurance company and was asking her if the guy next door was really disabled or not.
[04:15]	IsambardPrince	He had been filing worker's comp on some job.

[06:00]	IsambardPrince	"This time around, Trump is raising the stakes: He wants to repeal a 100-year-old law granting citizenship to anyone born on US soil."
[06:00]	IsambardPrince	It's not a law, it's part of the Constitution, and it's over 150 years old.
[06:01]	IsambardPrince	Congress can't repeal that like a statute. It would require a 2/3rds majority, which the Republicans do not have, and 38 complicit states, which they also don't have.
[06:05]	IsambardPrince	"Amending the Constitution would require buy-in from the Supreme Court"
[06:05]	IsambardPrince	No it wouldn't. It's literally Congress and the States.
[06:07]	IsambardPrince	"Only 33 countries, most of them in the Americas, grant unrestricted birthright citizenship based on birthplace; the rest of the world relies largely on the nationality of the parent or parents, and naturalization."
[06:08]	IsambardPrince	The UK basically repealed unrestricted birthright citizenship in 1982.

[07:05]	IsambardPrince	Right now, Syrians celebrate Assad fleeing.
[07:06]	CrystalMath	because i guess israel's genocide is fun?
[07:06]	IsambardPrince	But Israel has more or less destroyed all the military hardware of significance in Syria in over 500 airstrikes, and the US did a few dozen.
[07:06]	CrystalMath	sickening
[07:06]	IsambardPrince	Whoever ultimately "governs" Syria won't have a military to defend against invasion.
[07:06]	CrystalMath	how anyone could even imagine supporting israel is sickening
[07:06]	IsambardPrince	Assuming that Israel doesn't just take half the country and remove people to the other half.
[07:07]	IsambardPrince	And set up colonies.
[07:07]	IsambardPrince	Israel's strategy, I think, won't end with destroying the military hardware.
[07:07]	IsambardPrince	They'll use it as an excuse to move past the Golan Heights and take whatever they want.
[07:08]	IsambardPrince	Then they might deport the Palestinians into whatever part of Syria they don't want because nobody can stop them.
[07:08]	IsambardPrince	Someone will have Gaza at the end of this, but there won't be any Gazans there.

[07:12]	CrystalMath	the west will fall and then all jews will be removed from palestine
[07:12]	IsambardPrince	I don't know why he would.
[07:12]	CrystalMath	but until the west falls there will be suffering

[07:14]	IsambardPrince	For a long time, people in the US thought that Patient Zero for HIV was a French-Canadian flight attendant.
[07:14]	IsambardPrince	Largely because he managed to give it to over 300 other men.
[07:15]	IsambardPrince	Which is not surprising because French.
[07:15]	IsambardPrince	But then we found out it was here before that, long before that. In the 1950s. The first known AIDS death in the US is now a black teenage boy who died in St. Louis, Missouri in 1959.
[07:15]	IsambardPrince	He was a male prostitute at age 14.
[07:15]	IsambardPrince	So that fits too.
[07:16]	IsambardPrince	He checked into the hospital dying of AIDS and they had no idea WTF was going on.

[07:19]	IsambardPrince	They worked closely with Trump once the patent on Truvada expired, to make sure that the US would never stop HIV from spreading and would always pay too much for PrEP drugs.
[07:20]	IsambardPrince	The actual factories that make the drugs are in India, but owned by Israelis.
[07:21]	IsambardPrince	I don't think anyone cooked this up, but they've sure taken advantage of it.
[07:21]	IsambardPrince	AIDS started out in Africa.
[07:21]	IsambardPrince	A bunch of Brits fucking the local whores.
[07:22]	IsambardPrince	It's gotten so out of hand that there are countries there with a life expectancy at birth of 38.
[07:22]	IsambardPrince	Because of AIDS, hunger, and civil war mostly.

[08:08]	IsambardPrince	One of Mandy's friends was asking me about my religion. I said, "I don't have one and I haven't been a regular at church since I was about 14. I think the last time I went it was because my grandfather had his funeral service there in 1998."
[08:08]	IsambardPrince	It was a pretty big funeral.
[08:08]	IsambardPrince	It filled the entire church, but you expect that when he was going there for decades, knew everyone, was a Sunday School pastor.
[08:10]	IsambardPrince	My aunt's funeral was at a funeral home. It was all we could do to arrange for hundreds of people to come by or attend the service there. Unfortunately, Keith dropped in dressed like Dr. Frankenfurter.
[08:10]	IsambardPrince	To kiss his dead ex-wife, on the lips.
[08:10]	IsambardPrince	Just had to give her one last indignity.
[08:11]	IsambardPrince	But people came by to pay their respects because of what she'd actually done in life, not because she was a fixture at the church like my grandfather.
[08:11]	IsambardPrince	So I respected her a lot more.
[08:11]	IsambardPrince	Probably the biggest mistake she ever made was marrying Keith, but that was a big one.
[08:15]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], If Governor Pritzker and "President" (of the Cook County Board) Preckwinkle hadn't spend about a bajillion dollars on illegal aliens from Venezuela, Illinois could have paid a stipend to people on Social Security.

[21:11]	IsambardPrince	LOL
[21:11]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR3], "If I run away I'll be free until they run the plate and arrest me in a day or two!"
[21:12]	IsambardPrince	What's even funnier is they didn't catch him for like two days and wouldn't have had him on operating while intoxicated, except that when they caught up to him he said he crashed after he'd been drinking heavily.
[21:12]	IsambardPrince	So they can go ahead and charge him with that too now.
[21:13]	IsambardPrince	They have to prove you were drunk, so running away adds fleeing the scene but it basically takes their evidence for OWI away, until you admit you were drunk.
[21:13]	IsambardPrince	Which he did.
[21:14]	IsambardPrince	Telling the police you did something that they didn't witness or collect crime evidence for means now they have crime evidence.
[21:16]	IsambardPrince	It's like when they ticketed me for "failure to yield" at a red light. They didn't arrive for 30 minutes, so they grilled me and were trying to get me to say "Oh yeah, I ran the light." or "I'm sorry for running the light, it's just that..." but they had nothing so the ticket was thrown out.
[21:16]	IsambardPrince	Nobody that saw anything ended up showing up.
[21:17]	IsambardPrince	The prosecutor knows what kind of a case he has when he sees it. If there's no evidence they either drop it, bluff with very scary sounding charges they can't prove hoping you'll plead down to something, anything, or lose.
