Reply to comment by Traditional-Dingo604 in Measles case tied to Asbury University revival by Loverlee
That's fab, art and nature are very healing and that's backed up by science too! We have to do what gives us comfort in this funny old world, as long as we use science too. I believe there's a place for both, it's the anti-vaxxers of this world that can't see that.

Huh. DTE’s outage map show fewer than 100k. Plus, it shows my neighborhood as being off and we never lost power so it seems like their map is an overestimate. (Except for flickering.)
Edit: never mind. DTE says 50k+ but when I click on it, it says 250k. 😖

I have a friend on my Facebook feed that I haven't seen in 10+ years. She posted last week about this Asbury revival and had to look up what she was talking about. Wonder if she has measles now.

No.
Waffen is german and means weapons.
My username translates to „monkeys with weapons".

You don't have to agree with it, but this is the stuff that makes the West infinitely better than Russia.

A couple of decades ago I was sitting on a nice little pile of money. A cousin somehow heard about it, and suddenly for a couple of weeks I was his best friend, which lead up to him wondering aloud if I would be interested in investing his his little startup business.
Like, my dude, you are unemployable because you are either drunk, high, or both 24/7, and you either quit jobs or get fired because of it. What really makes you think I'm going to get any sort of return on my investment? Weed and beer does not count.
And that was the last I heard of him for about ten years.

The president has clearance to have whatever documents he wants. Why are you spreading a stupid statement unless of course you’re doing it on purpose.

Reply to comment by PolecatXOXO in Protest In Berlin Over Arming Ukraine Against Russia Draws Thousands by Neo2199
You’re confusing two events that took place in Berlin on Friday and today.
There was a big rally on Friday in Berlin in support of Ukraine, the next day, there was this protest by a different group.
Just because we don’t agree with the protest, doesn’t mean that we need to make up stuff to downplay it.
The protest took place in Berlin, the capital of Germany, not a small town in Saxony. It has been reported by major news agencies like Reuters & the German news broadcaster Deutsche Welle. The German police also reported on the number of the protesters.
> Police in Berlin said on Saturday afternoon that roughly 13,000 people had attended an event in central Berlin organized by a controversial socialist politician, Sahra Wagenknecht, and a prominent writer and feminist, Alice Schwarzer.
> The Rebellion for Peace rally organizers have received fierce criticism from many politicians, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who say the demonstration could weaken public support for Ukraine's fightback against Russia.
> Organizers had reckoned with a likely turnout in the region of 10,000 but police estimates exceeded these figures despite freezing temperatures and sleet. ..
> Saturday's rally follows a protest in solidarity with Ukraine, attended by some 10,000 people in Berlin on Friday night — the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion.

My guess is that they have the time and place the winning ticket was sold, and they have him on camera purchasing the ticket at the time and place. No one's going to give 2 Billion to someone without some verification on their part.
My guess is that this is 100% legit.

any trans person can attest to how fucking hard it is to actually get to the surgery stage of things even if you’ve got the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars depending on the procedure. there’s absolutely no one pushing surgery, you have to fight for it. anyone speaking to the contrary is either disingenuous or delusional.
