Oh great, now I’ll never respect that again when I’m looking for a dog to nap.

My dad had a husky when he was a kid that got stolen. Now that’s a dog someone might steal. Now, not to be too harsh on a 16yo deaf little weird dog or victim blame my dad’s husky, but no one is stealing that thing.

We got 1 of those type of churches in London here by a preacher recruiting young kids to avoid the gang culture…

Im on the phone will try to source…

He lives next to Rand Paul?

This reads like a conspiracy theory about conspiracy theories :anguished:

yeah stolen to be used as bait dog was my first thought

fucking christ i hate people

I’m pretty sure the dog just escaped through the smashed window and ran away.

And then got eaten by a coyote that crossed 6 lanes of traffic.

So anyway:

FYI, the deadline has technically passed for the presidential primary sheep, but I’ll take entries (14 so far) until 4pm PST because I’m not going to get around to processing entries until then. I’m planning on the reveal starting before the debate tomorrow.

Speaking as someone who has had quite a bit of interaction with the food supply chain it’s the lawyers who keep everyone in line not the inspectors. The inspectors check maybe .001% of the stuff that gets shipped. The lawyers sue the life out of anyone who makes anyone sick and there’s a massive infrastructure in place to assign blame.

Not trying to be a dick here because I’m generally anti deregulation, but this is probably a nothingburger and the people saying this are probably talking their own book.

Yeah, I’ll just sue Hormell if I get e coli that’ll work.

The deregulation efforts of this administration will probably take years/decades to undo.

I’m not ready to go vegan but recently decided to (attempt to) cut pig products out of my diet (have been successful with ham, pork, and sausage but damn it’s hard to cut bacon) as a baby step towards consuming a bit more mindfully/morally, so I guess this just reinforces that.

Can’t you just lean forward to get this same effect?

Food industry is immensely powerful. They got the ag-gag laws passed which are a massive affront to free speech. They shut Oprah down. Not only will they not get sued into being better, they will sue people for talking about this and win.

Nope. Suing food companies (and crucially defending them) for making people sick is excellent business for the most powerful lobby in the country… the lawyers. Most legislators are lawyers, and virtually every bill is designed to generate maximum billable hours.

You’re right that this process isn’t about stopping people from eating gross stuff, but about generating billable hours for attorneys though.

You tell me. Report back with results.

Legislation isn’t designed with billable hours in mind.

And yet somehow every bill, regulation, or literally anything that comes out of Washington seems to create more of them. There are THOUSANDS of pages of rules in my industry alone that no normal person could ever hope to comprehend even partially.

I’m sorry man, this is one of those things I’ll never not believe. It can be unintentional, but it’s definitely how it works. The lawyers make the rules and the rules seem to be as dense, incomprehensible, and conflicted as humanly possible. Hard for a layperson to not think that there’s a reason why it’s impossible for a normal person to even know what the rules are.

The answer isn’t less regulation but better regulation, perhaps not written by the people being regulated…
