as if to give me an example of abuse of the term mutual aid, Mutual Aid Diabetes pushed people to politically support an arsonist firebomber terrorist that pled guilty

also in mere minute of idiot's research the body already has a folate "rate limiter" enzyme (dihydrofolate reductase) and as one might suspect vitamin B9 is water soluble and in very very common excess kidneys will just throw it out

"Augustus"? oh my fucking god he's Auggie Goggins
poor Walton Goggins’ son, having your dad be cooler than you at your own school is the ultimate teen nightmare
Walton Goggins knows his role in 'Fallout' is cool, even if his son won't admit it: "He benefits from it greatly at school"
Walton Goggins’ son simply cannot admit that his dad is pretty cool!

Mr Cuban,
I just wanted to quickly thank you. My husband has XXXX cancer, a rare gastrointestinal cancer. We are between insurance right now and when we went to pick it up we were informed it was $29,000. We were able to get it from CostPlus for $990. Thank you for saving my husband's life.
