I can only speak from the male perspective, but I think that any man who loses his dick in this manner didn't deserve to have one.

My real move is to bring an iced coffee and set it on the table exactly halfway between us, so they spend the whole interview wondering whether I brought it for them or for myself, and if they’re being horribly rude by not drinking it or about to embarrass themselves by drinking my drink.

I am happy to see "The Wire" so high on the list. I also chuckled at the distinction of "True Detective (Season 1)." Along those lines, they should have specified "Battlestar Galactica (Seasons 1-2)" and "Game of Thrones (Seasons 1-6)."

"Several people who work for clinics or businesses selling peptides are on the [FDA advisory] panel." Seems like a pretty glaring conflict of interest, but those are quaint these days, aren't they? www.bbc.com/news/article...

FDA panel votes to loosen restrictions for controversial peptides
The vote marks a win for Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy who has said he's a big fan of the drugs, which haven't been well studied for human use.

Also, this premise is incorrect. At the very least, his dad's last name was Scrooge. His first name was chosen. Thus, before he was Ebenezer, he was Scrooge.

For me, each trip to the grocery store costs about $250, seemingly no matter what I buy. I might as well stock up, because 5 items or 17 items will cost $250.

I remember one video where a guy using an inner tube accidentally flipped upside down in a swimming pool and was unable to right himself. Some guy was just standing there, filming him and laughing, while he was on the verge of drowning. I still wonder if he made it.

Yesterday, the @fda.gov approved the antibody-drug conjugate sacituzumab govitecan for first-line treatment of metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. This action is based on results from the ASCENT-03 & -04 global clinical trials, which @stolaney1.bsky.social helped to lead. ➡️ bit.ly/4uZoDP0

the way it works is that if i say, "i'm a black american," sam alito thinks that is "dividing people up by race." but if someone says, "get that jigaboo out of my country," alito thinks, "looks like nothing to me"
