This is deeply misleading. The agricultural section of the bill does NOT ban hemp-derived cannabinoid products that contain less than .3% THC total. www.cannabisbusinesstimes.com/hemp/news/15...

I have loaded my Pilot E95s fountain pen in the discontinued maroon with their newly introduced maroon ink Syun-Gyo. I need Pilot to explain what the thought process was, here, because as you might expect, they are a dead on match.

Wife of a furloughed federal worker here. We live in Okinawa & they aren't paying our housing or his salary. We are worried about neighbors & coworkers in the same boat. This sucks. But what sucks worse? Dems fucking betraying us and caving so all of this was for nothing right when we had leverage.

I'm going to actively say at this point that I don't think people should donate to any Dem-run PACs. What guarantee do we have that they won't give the money to cowards to stave off primary challengers?
I mean, it rather feels like the reverse will happen.

I believe I owe you a #GhostStory.
When I was set to go to college, a lot of changes were happening in my family and we could all feel it. My mom and I and her siblings and their spouses all went to stay for a week at my g-grandfather's house in door county which my great aunt rented out back then.

Neither do you, clearly.
We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.
Republicans just don't care about your health care.

You are agreeing to deal with "the foe". The foe is not Trump. The foe is the entire right at the moment. I know it's hard to bear that in mind when you work with people but they are not your friends.
No one’s feelings are wrong. That’s not my point. We’re in a real battle, against a corrupt and malevolent foe, with huge stakes. We must win.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.
If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.
