I think it’s just that ethanol intoxication causes disinhibition.

I generally assume what I’m buying will cost 10% to 20% more from taxes and/or tips getting added at checkout. I agree it doesnt make sense and seems underhanded, they could post the actual prices if they wanted to.

Possibly bupropion might be what you want. Its a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Not sure about Australia but in the US it is approved for treating depression and nicotine addiction but has found off label use as an ADD treatment.

Did you taper off the Lexapro? If not that could explain some of what you are feeling now.

I wouldn’t take it personally, Lemmy has a number of people who do dumb shit and make provocative accusations trying to stir up drama. Especially around Israel, there seems to be this phenomenon where some people get locked into this simple good vs evil thinking that motivates a lot of shitty behavior.

Another officer says, “They’re starting to resist more now,” to which an officer replies: “We’re going to end up shooting some of them.”

This quote stood out to me. It seems like ICE agents are preparing themselves psychologically to begin killing people.

I gave up on it because sneaking around and getting caught so easily got boring fast and wasn’t particularly fun. Everything else about the game seemed fine but the sneaking mechanic was designed poorly.

Taxes like that typically apply only to money beyond the limit so if you hit 3 million and a dollar you would be paying 95 cents in tax on that dollar only.

I was referring to all of the people who are supposed allies and leftists but advocated not voting for Harris when the only possible outcome of not voting for Harris was to empower Trump. I doubt they contributed significantly to Trump winning but regardless, they did exactly what Trump wanted them to do. If you’re one of them, I hope you figure things out and do the right thing if we get a next time.

The system sucks but you’re never getting any of the things you want from it without the Democratic party. Leftists should be taking over the party instead of abandoning it. Or letting themselves get played into abandoning it by those who want to disempower the left. The system guarantees that we get two parties and we’re not going to take the GOP so the Dems are really it. It sucks but it is what is, you can’t wield the state without first wielding one of the two parties. There is no other realistic path to power under the system.

They thought enough of the left still understood how elections worked. I agree it was a dumb strategy to try going after the supposed “moderate Republicans” who aren’t fully in the cult, but the Dems having shit leaders and dumb strategies was not a good reason to help elect Trump.

Most of them spend a huge amount of their time fundraising whether congress is in session or not.

They aren’t contradicting themselves at all, you just aren’t understanding their point.

Yes, and its not just teenagers.

Not an expert but I’ve dealt with a few sofas over the years. I think your best bet is trying to replace either the broken leg or all of the legs. Removing the legs and resting it on something can work but you risk it sliding around. Sofa construction tends to be straightforward, the frames are mostly just a big rectangle made from wood, if its not wiggling around you are probably fine.

… the state could lose out on more than $1.5 billion in unspent funds and may even have to repay the $618 million it already used to begin building.

This is truly the dumbest shit possible. They are going out of their way to waste money rather than see it be spent on the environment.
