I'd be more concerned if the result findings go against the scientific community

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

There really isn't anything he can do that is not ok with a Trump drone.

You're like the guy in an airplane where an engine just fell off, and says no worries - wake me up when the other one falls off.

You have to make sure derinsurer shows his work,  though.

No insurance + black = deadbeat freeloader costing society money
No insurance + white = "principled"

Ain't that the truth!

Get out of my head, you guys!

To be fair the engine is still there, there's just a guy ripping wires out of it.

But maybe he's in fact, repairing it? We can't know for sure, so I say, let's give him the benefit of the doubt.

You're so calm. It's very soothing. I'm sure everything will be fine.

I think we should at least wait and see what happens before we rush to judgement.

I'm the guy who says it's fine when there's turbulence. someone who supports vaccinations but is cautious is now chairing a commission. allegedly, both care about the science. if the science is conclusive, then what's the result going to be?

how is this an engine falling off.

Let's all just not think about what's going to happen in a week and a half and enjoy the last few days of the Obama presidency.  I can't decide which watch party I want to attend for his farewell address tonight.

And by the way, I still have some Obama plates available...

Of course they don't care about the science, because the science has already spoken on the issue.

But I am sure the engine is fine, and there is nothing wrong with appointing a pilot who is skeptical about the need for engines when the plane is already in the air, and just wants to confirm that engines actually do anything, again, just to be sure.
