It sounds like everything is working, so… whats the issue?

Let me add to that.

“During a close election with extremely high stakes, why would we not post misleading criticism about our own candidate?”

Your questions and concerns have been discussed many times. Not sure why this concept is new to you.

“A gain” as in one more. Gain meaning “an increase in amount”

Relentless, isn’t it. OP can’t be this dumb, right? It has to be on purpose.

Sure, OP is demonstrating that quite clearly, although as usual the goal is just to bash Biden (as if Trump would do any of this).

Derp, what’s a legislative branch?

How about “get me a double majority in Congress and I’ll”…

Down on the upside

Definitely could be. Not sure what other conditions might do this… dishydrosis covers internal reactions to foods as well as topical exposure to chemicals. I’ll note also that the one finger or one toe thing happened to me at various times, which suggested to me it wasn’t my skin being exposed to an irritant. Sometimes it was the same fingers or toes on both sides of my body, which is a common feature of autoimmune skin conditions.

That was how I felt. I was so pleased when it would go away for a while, then I’d notice the first little vesicles or bumps forming and be like fuck. I became sort of obsessed with monitoring it, though there was nothing I could do. I guess I could have gone to urgent care and gotten the steroid creme, if I had actually had insurance or $400 to spare.

I’ve had similar realizations about words like “across” and “again”.

How else would one interpret it?

Sounds like dyshidrotic eczema aka dyshidrosis to me. I had that for years. I’d get slightly different effects depending on precisely what type of skin it was on… finger tips, sides of fingers, tops, palm, sides of hands… also it was on my toes a lot. I’d get tiny dots under the skin, sometimes in clusters, sometimes red bumps like pimples, and they’d burst and leave ‘dry skin’ and peeling. It could be itchy as hell and also made stuff like washing dishes hellish, like my hands were covered in papercuts. My hands at times itched like mad, to where I’d practically strip the skin off scratching them, and that would help for about 1.5 seconds. It would sometimes go away for a week or two and then come back, but was present 95% of the time.

It was misdiagnosed by PCPs as athlete’s foot several times, even when it was on my hands, which didn’t make much sense but doctors were “oh yeah! it can be on your hands!”. But my hands were quite dry. The prescription steroid/antifungal always cleared it up and it would go away for months, but OTC antifungal creams and sprays did nothing. Hmm.

Anyway, I finally figured out it def wasn’t athlete’s foot and saw a dermatologist. He said dyshidrosis immediately. I’d suggest to see a derma if possible. Anyway, if it is that, the treatment, other than temporary abatement from steroids, is figuring out what the trigger is. It’s a pretty common autoimmune condition with ‘unknown triggers’, which I interpret as meaning it’s different for various people. For me, it turned out to be gluten. I had to go GF for Celiac disease and my hand & foot skin issue cleared up entirely for the first time in 20 years.

Americans are all about ethnicities like that, such as “I’m half Polish and half German on my mother’s side” or “my family is Italian” though technically they’re from Long Island or Wisconsin or something. Almost nobody describes their heritage as just “American”.

I never read them as they were after my time too. But when I was 25 I was driving through the middle of nowhere in Oregon and saw a book in the road. Turned around, stopped and picked it up, and it was the first Harry Potter. I read it. It was okay.

He claims it isn’t true, but they did a $250k settlement with her. Hmmm.

Like, plants and stuff?

Ah, they guy who tried to get Paypal to switch to running on Windows strikes again.

I enjoy it in some moods, not as much in others. I generally like it for 20 minutes but can’t watch an entire episode at once. My ex would just screech “WHAT IS THAT TURN IT OFF I CAN’T TAKE IT” but well, that’s sort of how I feel about her.

In defense of his exasperation, the topics he discusses generally are infuriating and deserve such treatment.
