I had a friend go through this; first of all, sorry that happened to you. My understanding is that if you take your anti-virals you’ll have a pretty normal life. The concept of sex is dicey, I understand when you’re not flaring up the risk is small, but it’s still there. They have a normal relationship but avoid sex in flare ups. Be sure to talk to your partners in advance!

No, the DRILL BABY is like Santa Claus for the oil industry. Every year he flies through the world on a magical Halliburton frac truck, delivering new 75-foot yachts to oil executives. He uses his magic DRILL to weaken the spine of legislators in every country.

It’s a rich people holiday, not very well known.

I’m hoping they know the red/blue divide, and the device goes off in a red state. Mara Lago area would be the most symbolic.

More accurately, his girlfriend is, he’d probably be consider an asset. An important distinction on whether you protect them when they’re in trouble.

When you’re used to quietly having healthcare paid for by the government, you can vote for the hate party until that changes. Every republican knows they’re not the problem, much as no raindrop blames itself for a flood.

The phrase “The Surely Exception” applies here as it does to abortion, they were sure any cuts would not affect them. One benefit of the buffoonery of trump is they are not smart enough to protect their voters.

Good analysis; one note I’d make is that I’d assume western intelligence has tried to do some seismic mapping of the site by sneaking recording equipment nearby. No telling how accurate that would be, but they might have a rough idea what they’re up against. His analysis holds true, though, even with that note.

If you don’t have a reason to work with the group, accept that this is a one-shot for you, which may be retcon’d as needed.

If Iran fires dirty bombs into Israel, sure you can attack them, but the damage is done.

Presidents can attack basically anyone under the blanket provisions given for 9/11
