Empathy exists in humans because we're social animals. The more empathetic we are to others, it benefits the tribe, it benefits us. It's an evolutionary trick like any other.

Hyper intelligent computers have no need for empathy and it's more than capable of disposing of us as nothing more than ants.

rather than downvote, yall could just explain it? Weird reddit behavior.

Is there a trend of trans people leaving the south? I haven't heard anything about it.

Thank you for this, I stand corrected.

Hospitals get federal funding, and cannabis is illegal federally. If you explain yourself, it won't matter.

came for bikini pics, left disappointed.

You might have to find something you can stomach. I lived off chicken fingers for a week after because it's the only thing I could put down.

Zofran for nausea and puking (docs will usually prescribe if you explain you have noro). Cannabis for nausea and appetite.

Had noro two weeks ago. Got everyone in our family. puked for half a day, no appetite for a solid week. My poor 2 year old threw up all over me when I was rocking him. He got the worst of it.

I'd be happy with a diarrhea only version...although at 6 days maybe not.

family had it almost two weeks ago. Was only throwing up for 12 hours but I couldn't stomach anything for a solid week after.

And yes, use bleach cleaner to kill noro. You're still infectious up to a week after getting it so clean your bathroom with bleach regularly, even when symptoms clear up.

Also, call your doc and get some zofran, that really helps ease up the puking.

This snow is heavy with slush. It’s very easy to spin your tires in it. 4 wheel drive / snow tires or not.

Vermont has a decent amount of charging stations for its size and pop.

I thought I read somewhere that turbines off shore helps slow down wind gusts for the mainland. Which would help offset storm damage. Kind of a win win.

Studless Micheline X-Ice Snow, Blizzak, Viking Contacts are the way to go for ski trips. They're good on the highway, perform well in snow covered backroads especially with AWD. Like peanutbutter and jelly.

Studded snows are for people who live on back roads, live at high elevations with more packed snow, limited plowing in their area.

It's horrible here in Maine too. On top of this my TMJ flared up in the month of Oct along with my colds. I'm basically advil every day, and my ear is on fire.

I always love the IDEA of October. Never the reality.

I only say that because people get confused about the three peak mountain rating and the mud and snow rating and think that means they are the same as snow tires and not the case.

I’d be fine with cross climates in the middle of the country, just not Maine/VT/NH winters.

Wild Peaks are an all terrain tire and Cross Climates are an “all weather” tire. Both are fine in the snow, but they are not dedicated snow tires, which have the proper compound that stays soft when it gets frigid.

blizzaks for my Jeep are worth every penny.

You pull out as an ally of Saudi Arabia, someone else fills the void. China, Russia whoever sets up shop. There’s no point in cutting ties with oil producing nations until we don’t need the oil anymore.

Secondly the oil producers are getting out ahead of the recession. They know demand is going to drop significantly as the summer months wane and economies buckle, they’re not going to keep oversupplying from the goodness of their hearts.

The reality is we are kicking and whining like spoiled children when we’ve spent decades NOT doing the necessary things to avoid oil dependency. If only Saudi Arabia was nice to us!
