This is exactly what I don’t get about all this. If Trump starts dumping Venezuelan crude on the market, US crude, which is largely dependent on more expensive extraction techniques, becomes less competitive. This means all the oil fields in Texas and Pennsylvania shut down (among others), and all the associated jobs go away

The best cure for being too anxious to go to the library or ride the bus is to go to the library and ride the bus. Your rationales for not doing these things don’t hold up, because the entire point of this advice is to help you get used to leaving your house by yourself. Don’t make excuses and just go.

You’ll find most of Chile’s observatories are in the Atacama Desert, and that almost all of the Atacama Desert is in Chile. The high elevation, incredibly low humidity, and remote location make for dark, clear skies

Prices aren’t even that high, crude oil’s price has been on a steady downward March since the high in 2022

Other people here are saying your friends are shitty, but I don’t think you should jump to that conclusion. People are naturally a little put off by things they don’t understand, and the general public absolutely does not understand schizophrenia. Have you tried telling them that you’re still the same person you were before and how them distancing from you makes you feel? To them, it feels like something has changed, but in reality nothing has changed. You can help them realize that. You communicating with them about this is probably the only way to make things better

No, they’re much older than that, and in England they just call them "muffins " I thought maybe they coined the term “English muffin,” but apparently not:

References to English muffins appear in U.S. newspapers starting in 1859, and detailed descriptions of them and recipes were published as early as 1870.

Well that’s a quick path to revolution

I think we’re going to be learning a lot over the next 10 months and the midterm elections play out. I also think that while Trump can cause immense damage with the power he has right now, a pretty large majority of the US population disapproves of what he’s doing, and as he continues to overstep his hand, he’s losing more support. I really do believe his days are numbered. What comes after is definitely a question…

Oh my god, where does Donald Trump think we get our food from? We import so much food from Mexico. I live in Texas, and probably 75% of the produce in our stores is imported from Mexico. Does the man expect us to eat nothing but corn and soybeans?!
