If you read Mahmoud Basal’s description of the methodology, you have to wonder how long it will be before we can safely conclude that Nancy Guthrie was also the victim of one of these thermobaric weapons.

I mean, not literally Thomas Massie, in this case.

Highest this whole century?!?

Well, that’s not good. Very likely this was the ruling party’s action, but we can also blame Trump since he claims that he is in charge there (but only a fool would believe it).

I’m keeping spelling corrections for the whole thread to a single comment to resuce clutter.

People with more money than me are rich, and those with less money are poor. It’s like how people that drive faster than me are maniacs, amd those who drive slower than me are idiots.

Does the word need to convey “Passenger 57” and “MacGillicuddy” too?

I still do from time to time, but they are about the slowest way to drink. If you’re very thirsty, you need to stay there for ages. I don’t think I’ve ever quenched a thirst at a drinking fountain. More like got a little more water to survive a bit longer.

This article was written yesterday and based on a Guardian article from two days ago. But the BBC reported it about three and a half days ago.

You watched porn in China without a VPN, so the US has blown way past China for human rights violations?

So, because the US is regrettably inching toward authoritarianism, the fully authoritarian state was the better one all along?

Is it because of innumeracy that people seem to have such a hard time grasping the magnitude of evil?

Fair. It gives the consumer a better choice than bottled or in-home filtered vs tap water does.

It also dispels the idea that European countries consider fluoride supplementation unsafe, which is implied by the OP.

Has anyone measured the level of fluoride already in your water?

Germany adds fluoride to table salt. The US does not do that. We do add iodide or iodate to salt for goiter prevention.

Different delivery methods for fluoride, same goals.

There’s regular controversy around the age of the earth, the shape of the earth, and whether astronauts have ever been on the moon.

The Harvard article mostly talks about whether fluoride helps adults. The safety concerns are mostly about fluorosis. That has very specific symptoms on the teeth themselves, and if you see it you should be investigating whether someone is swallowing lots of toothpaste first.

You will see a lot of crappy medical science touted by universities. Many of their hospitals offer “alternative and complementary” medical treatments because people are willing to pay for them. Scientific consensus from experts and what you can find some kook supporting are not the same thing.

The neurotoxicity study from Mullenix doesn’t have teeth (pun intended), and the people who keep touting it 30 years later might as well be flat earthers.

I was expecting “precious bodily fluids” to appear sooner, but otherwise I was onto it from the start.

Would you say they were ghouls?

Probably because of their balls.*

*You set yourself up for that one.

Patrick?

Sure, it’s possible you didn’t like either woman who gained the Democratic nomination for President both times it happened, but you’ll give the third a fair shake. Anything is possible.
