I just get stuck on the interview I saw with her where she said she only accepted the payment so that there would be a paper trail that would make it harder to have her killed. She was legitimately afraid that she was going to get murdered on his orders if she didn't have some kind of collateral or receipts.

It takes years for a donor's remaining liver to grow back, and the recipient is unlikely to grow out more of the donated liver depending on comorbidities and severity of illness.

I have done CPR on people before, and it is astonishingly brutal. To do it correctly, you have to cave their sternum in to be able to apply enough pressure to the heart to actually move blood around. For "Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest" patients that receive bystander CPR, the survival to discharge is around 10%, give or take. The most common outcome of CPR (if it is successful and you get a pulse back) is days to weeks of dying slowly and painfully in the ICU. The older someone is, or the more health problems they have, the much lower the chance of recovery is.

CPR is absolutely reasonable for a younger person that stands a good chance of walking out of the hospital at the end of it, but 90 pound 90-year-old is extremely unlikely to survive in a meaningful way. It is very reasonable to request to not be put through that massive amount of suffering for a very low chance of any meaningful benefit.

There's also degrees of DNR. There's separate options for CPR, intubation, supportive care, active treatment, palliative care, etc. It's a lot more nuanced than CPR yes/no in most situations.

I'm so sad that Kamala stole our governor. He's going to be really good for the country as a whole, but he was ours!

The one my husband gave me is Nenya without the stones. It's just the 6 petaled flower in white gold.

I got my husband an engagement watch. It's an analog watch with a 24 hour dial, and it was very hard to find. He was delighted (especially since the ring he was getting made for me was delayed by about 4 months because of Covid)

"Ope" is a common exclamation in Minnesota as an expression of a very Midwestern accent. The meme example is "Ope, lemme sneak right past ya there and grab the ranch".

This is why I'm sad to be losing him in Minnesota, but he's going to be good for the country as a whole.

As a Minnesotan, I'm disappointed to be losing our governor. He's done great things for our state, but I'm hopeful that the Lt. Governor who will be taking his place will be a good replacement.

Walz’s ascension to the ticket leaves questions for Minnesota. Under the state Constitution, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan would become governor if Walz resigns, but he’s not on the ballot in Minnesota this fall, meaning he could wait until after the November election to step down. Flanagan, a member of the White Earth Nation, would become Minnesota’s first woman and first Native American governor.

Domestic abuse isn't just physical violence, it can also include manipulation, coercion, and other forms of control.

I want them to seize the Trump tower and turn it into low-income housing and a job training/community college with whatever liquid assets they do squeeze out of him. Use the disgorgement to help the people of New York have better lives.
