Of course... fewer tests mean fewer pregnancies. Wasn't that the logic with COVID tests?

ERCOT, PUC, and deregulation got us here
Also, they are big polluters and they kill birds...so they say. Evidently, the memo is out right now to hate wind production.

One meme I saw this week claimed it costs more energy to make a wind installation than it produces.

A big difference is that the GOP runs Texas and will marginalize that voting bloc.

They better shut it off fast because that type of action is going to made illegal in the future. Or marital rape will be made legal. One of the two.

Restrictions are fine when they are put on the other guy. Restrictions for thee but not for me. It's part of the new American ethos.

No, they should be ground. I failed to include the instructions and have put them in another post.

Left off the prep: Step 1 Grind peppercorns coarsely using a mortar and pestle, electric grinder, or spice mill. Step 2 Chop cilantro finely and transfer to a mixing bowl. Stir in the freshly ground pepper, oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, oil, and cayenne. Add chicken thighs and toss by hand until completely coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for 4 to 12 hours. Step 3 Combine rice vinegar, lime juice, garlic, sambal, fish sauce, cilantro, and honey to make the dipping sauce. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Shit I've Cooked Lately
Ping Gai Chicken is a Laotian recipe. I love grilled wings, and I search around for chicken recipes from around the globe and use/adapt them to prepare my wings. I probably have a dozen or so wing recipes I use through the grilling season. I'm old(er) with high blood pressure, so I substitute coconut aminos and maple syrup for the soy, oyster, and fish sauces. I also like things hot, so I add pureed ghost pepper in the marinade and doubled the sambal oelek in the sauce. I like using ghost pepper because it adds smokiness as well as heat. I also marinate my wings for 2-3 days. For the Marinade: 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, or more to taste 1 large bunch fresh cilantro stems and leaves 3 tablespoons oyster sauce 2 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons fish sauce 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 pinches cayenne pepper 10 boneless, skinless chicken thighs For the Dipping Sauce: ⅔ cup seasoned rice vinegar 1 lime, juiced 4 cloves garlic, crushed 1 tablespoon sambal oelek 1 tablespoon fish sauce ¼ cup freshly chopped cilantro 2 tablespoons honey, or more to taste

Ukraine War
After the KAL downing, the Soviets were convinced that Reagan was going to order a first strike. Soviet defenses incorrectly registered incoming missiles. If not for a low-level Soviet soldier questioning the data, the Soviet Union would have launched. The event spooked both sides and Reagan softened his rhetoric. The details were revealed when the Soviet archives were opened after 1991.

Ukraine War
He also damn near got us into a nuclear war… which is a good example that foreign policy is a fucking messy endeavor and always comes with unforeseen consequences. The future is always a tough gamble. It’s easy to judge past actions.

I think the time for neutrality has passed for at least 50 or so years.

Add in the factor that anyone in the middle class has probably paid the bribes to stay out of the military.

Thanks for providing an answer.

No need to rationalize because it’s not being reported by their sources. Anything that does report it is fake news and turning too liberal.
