The US and Israel are frequently wrong on matters of morals and ethics, so I don't consider that to be a good reason to compromise my own moral compass. Human rights are for every human, regardless of whether or not you like or agree with them.

Given that various articles are talking about soldiers "rationing" their food, I don't know that they are being fed adequately regardless of whether they're getting a variety or if they're stuck with the least-eaten MREs.

Even so, they don't deserve to starve. Food is a human right, and MAGA idiots are humans too.

Plan B rule

I can see it being a safety issue in this case. If a woman is in an abusive relationship, having the charge show up as "Door Dash" on their credit card statement could be a lot safer than a charge from a pharmacy.

I've also used Door Dash to buy things for my friends who live several states away. Or using Door dash to get things when you're sick and don't want to leave the house and get other people sick is reasonable. There are quite a few non-lazy reasons for using Door Dash (but it is a certain amount of laziness most of the time).

I was curious about this too, but the crime in question was committed in 2017 against someone Daniel knew from school, so I don't think it was the murderer. There's no excusing what he did, but he wasn't given a death sentence for it.

DIY rules

It's really hard to pin down because of inconsistencies between manufacturers. I've had patients that got pellets and had no effects whatsoever, and some that got way too much because it dissolved too quickly. It also kind of matters who is implanting them and if they know what they're doing. (Pro tip, chiropractors and naturopaths do not know what the fuck they are doing.)

The problem with pellets is that they can release the hormones at uneven rates as they dissolve because they aren't perfectly homogeneous. There's also a chance that your body rejects it and forms a fibrous capsule around it that prevents it from releasing the hormones at all.

Might as well go the rest of the way and do it like the "Shame" scene in Game of Thrones. They wouldn't make it one block before the frostbite does its job.

They were brutalizing the protesters at the Whipple federal building and the airport where they arrested 100 clergy that were blocking the entrance and singing hymns.
