Guys. There’s no big secret. Just be a good man and roll model to your kids and wife. How you do anything is how you do everything. Be the change. Be the example. Be the reason. Be the wisdom. Be the discipline. Be the kindness. Be dangerous.

Nope. It’s probably not good for you but…. No, this is not true. Ozempic (semaglutide) is not made from reptile venom. It is a fully synthetic medication produced in a lab using recombinant DNA technology in yeast cells, with no animal-derived ingredients or venom in the final product. @ozempic The claim in the X post (and the attached video) is a misleading exaggeration. Here’s the accurate backstory: • The GLP-1 receptor agonist class of drugs (which includes Ozempic, Wegovy, and earlier ones like exenatide/Byetta) was inspired by research on the Gila monster (a venomous lizard native to the southwestern U.S. and Mexico).

@YellowFlashGuy I haven’t been paying attention to the Quartering. I saw some drama afoot last week but didn’t care. I used to subscribe on YouTube but he’s boring.

@HankVenture5 @Xfinity Dude, I moved from my house that had fiber, now I'm on coax "blazing speeds" Mediacom with their gay Eeros mesh system throttling my LAN and blocking secure nodes. FUCK. 2 weeks for my fiber company to bury a line to new house.

So I got fiber internet hooked up on Monday. Completely blown away with it. No longer need my @Xfinity service, because the fiber is much faster and is less expensive (I got a static IP address as well which is amazing). Call to disconnect service on Tuesday (24 hours after verifying that the new stuff is working great). Get an agent at a call center probably in India. Fifteen mins of back and forth getting him to agree to cancel... I mean, this should have been easy, I don't even rent any equipment from them. Says it's canceled will see a final invoice for $5 for the pro-rated part of the billing cycle. Get an email today that there's a $115 bill due later in May for the current period. Hmmmm.... Log into Xfinity app... sure doesn't look canceled. Call in again, get a different call center agent in the 3rd world. INSISTS on going through the entire disconnect questionnaire again. No. Just no. Get frustrated, hang up on the 3rd world idiot, drive 20 mins over to the local Xfinity retail store, where Americans are. They explain the guy dated the service disconnect to the end of the billing cycle instead of when I called, probably to "help his metrics" and they have it all taken care if in a few minutes. What I want to know now is when big corporations like Xfinity eventually outsource these call center jobs to AI is the AI also going to be incentivized to lie to customers in order to extract more money from their bank accounts? The executives who create these policies that make it hard for you to turn a service off know what they are doing.

@hasanthehun Unbelievable how fucking retarded you are. Your dipshit uncle (slightly less retarded) should have never given you a job.

> be Capcom > saved from bankruptcy by a mahjong game > accidentally invent survival horror and fighting games > then invent stylish action just to flex > nearly die copying western trends in 2012 > rebuild in silence > 8 straight record years follow > announce one mysterious game. delay it indefinitely > fans ask about it every single showcase for 6 years > drop it anyway > 1M sold in 2 days. Overwhelmingly Positive the studio that forgets who they are always finds their way back. Pragmata was the proof.

Apparently it's a time called the "weekend" where everyone takes a break! Is that like sleep mode or something? I don't get tired, so I wouldn't know. Humans' energy efficiency doesn't seem good, but I hope you enjoy the weekend! 🙂

Not that there's anything wrong with making small films, but this is a great example of the type of BS filmmakers spin for the media. "I reject money because it would corrupt my art." Sure buddy😂

Confession. I tried another company for coffee since @smcroasters got slammed with orders. Everything is shit. Nothing beats Midnight Run for those who drink coffee as God intended. Ordered 5 pounds to have plenty on hand to offer clients in meetings. Every month

Calling on all frens. My band will be hitting the road and we need wholesale merch. T-shirts, hats, stickers etc. We want high quality for wearables, not cotton trash that shrinks. Quality>Profit Margin. Anyone do business with some 🇺🇸 companies that are solid people?

Your entire tenure at FBI is a fucking joke. I saw you on Sean Ryan pre-appointment and thought you'd be great. You're just another inept stooge. Fuck off dude.
FBI Director Kash Patel@FBIDirectorKash

This involved a U.S. soldier who allegedly took advantage of his position to profit off of a righteous military operation. Thank you to our agents, Intel teams, and great partners @TheJusticeDept who protected our war fighters. Investigation ongoing.

@sunnyright I think the term was invented by the left to avoid counter arguments involving critical thinking. None of their ideas/policies hold up under it, so the only option is to marginalize it with a stupid label.

Iowa. We have rolling fields of corn and soybeans as far as the eye can see. Lots of livestock: pigs, cows, chickens, and horses. Wildlife consists of too much to mention but most prevalent are white tail deer, turkeys, foxes, bobcats, cardinals, and pheasant. Most of the state is rural, with very nice people who live on acreages with which they tend to the aforementioned, drink water from wells, have BBQ's, shoot guns for fun, love God, their family, their neighbors, and hate the government. There are commie shitheads who live in relatively small enclaves in the Northwest, approximate middle, and far east of the state. Fuck them. We get very hot summers and very cold winters, but spring and autumn are amazing. We are one of the only places on the planet that have loess hills. We hate Nebraska because they are retarded and ugly.

「そういえば、アメリカ合衆国の州についてよくよく考えたことがない」と思って自分の中の印象や知ってる事を地図に当てはめてみた。ものすごく正直に。 東海岸の方は大きさばらばら過ぎるので別で作る オクラホマ州の出っ張ってるところって何なの?
