DeJoy is still in office actually, and is planning to further degrade service as soon as the election passes.

It sounds like he didn't like the questions being asked and this is his new way of ending an interview.
I misread the news headline and for a moment I thought it said "giant kitties could pull cargo ships", and my brain delivered a very different picture than the article did ...
Eastern Equine Encephalitis. The towns are Douglas, Oxford, Sutton, and Webster in Worcester county, near the state's borders with Rhode Island and Connecticut.
It must be nice to live in a world where rape and coercion don't exist, where every pregnancy is carried to term without endangering the life of the mother, and where every child is born entirely healthy. Unfortunately, the rest of us have to live in reality, not your pleasing little fantasy world.
I like how you completely ignore the man's options for not getting someone pregnant. Like, say masturbation, abstention, non-vaginal sex, sex with people who can't get pregnant, vasectomy, and condoms. But somehow it's all the woman's problem, isn't it?
It's cute how you've deluded yourself into believing that Netanyahu wants peace.
He specifically chose that his resignation would take effect today, because they a paycheck today. Gotta milk it for every last little bit of cash they can grab!
I was happier when he got disbarred in New York, but I'll take this too!
There are two types of polio vaccine: inactivated polio virus (given by a shot) and oral polio virus (OPV). OPV is a lot easier to give in rural and impoverished areas, or areas where it may be difficult for healthcare workers to get access. However, because it's given orally and because it contains a very weak but live form of polio virus, there's the chance that the recipient (while immune themselves) may continue to replicate and carry the virus in their intestinal tract. They may then pass the virus in their feces.
In an area with a functioning sewage system, this is generally a negligible risk. In an area where everyone is vaccinated and has a functioning immune system, this is generally a negligible risk. In an area where possibly not everyone is vaccinated, or where people's bodies are starting to break down due to starvation, and where the sewage system has been deliberately blown up, this is almost inevitable.
This is also intentional. In the concentration camps, a significant portion of the deaths were due to diseases that ripped through the camps, where the inmates were severely and deliberately malnourished, chronically overworked, had minimal protection from the elements, and were provided little hygiene or healthcare. The only difference with Gaza is that it's a bigger camp, and instead of being overworked, the inmates are repeatedly forced to move from one area to another to another.
GenX here. I remember the period we were all figuring out our values and politics, trying to get our ideas passed and bring told (essentially) to just wait our turn. And still pushing and pushing and being ignored, then the realization that they weren't going to give up willingly and still being patient. And then eventually realizing that everything was just going to skip over us entirely. I'm sorry we didn't get the chance to leave a better world for everyone else. We did try, we were just outnumbered.
