I don’t know how to use chatgpt etc but I imagine it’s going to a website and typing “oh no what groceries do I buy please tell me false god for I am so weak I cannot go on” as your brain atrophies and leaks out of your ears from disuse and the machine is like “buy eggs milk bread and a horse”

Puppy ears are all that are visible (center of photo) of a dog attempting to hide from the evil nail clippers.

How my dad's pup (our former foster-pup) feels about getting her nails trimmed...

Where Was My Generic Prescription Drug Made? - Rx Inspector - ProPublica The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so ProPublica did it instead. Use information on your prescription label to locate the factory and see inspection reports.

Always fascinated when discoveries like this continue to prove that the Americas were rich in peoples and cultures long before the Europeans showed up.

Delighted to report that my husband's reaction to readinv this was an appropriate amount of horror complete with retching and shivers of disgust.

This has been a substantial part of homeschooling our 7th grader this year, though we mostly use audiobooks. And documentaries.
Traditional US junior high was an epic failure, so we're learning all sorts of things together.
Almost done studying the Declaration, Revolution, and Constitution.

I've also repeatedly supported additional taxes, levies, etc dedicated to education.

ND doesn't have a partnership with them unfortunately. MN does though, or with another online option, so we're prepping to move to the MN side of the river.
One of the smaller ND districts has an online option that is open to the whole state, so we're trying that next year until we can move.
