Not really surprising when all food is so processed and pumped full of all kinds of bullshit, from high fructose corn syrup to preservatives to you name it.

Fun anecdote - I moved to Europe from the states a year back, and lost almost 20 pounds in that time without explicitly doing anything different. Just from the better food quality, and walking more in daily life (walkable cities and good public transportation!)

DW isn’t actually banned from broadcasting in Germany but I don’t believe they broadcast at all anymore, since the target audience is international. But regardless, yeah they are a high quality channel with factual reporting.

DW and BBC are both publicly owned news organizations with good reputations for high quality reporting and journalistic integrity.

Thank god he's old, then, because he's not going to last long enough to be long time dictator. But maybe thats not the point, even if trump is gone, if hardcore republicans dismantle elections to ensure they're perpetually in power, then who the current figurehead is will be the least of our problems

Anybody got that American political plane meme handy?

Isn’t Jill Stein effectively a republican asset at this point? Like not just a spoiler candidate but one actively funded by the right?
