The biggest problem with Scientology is that it speaks to our politicians pockets. It’s definitely and sickeningly on its way to becoming Yet Another Religion, and it does so under the cover for legislation that still allows exceptions from the law for cults even when their “fair game” policy is well-documented. It speaks volumes about why certain religious regimes are allowed to do what they do.
Scientology targets the mental health industry because that’s the target base of their most ardent supporters, they are built on targeting the mentally ill and telling them “no, this isn’t an illness you suffer that will require time and effort to treat and will always weigh on you, it’s that you are special and channeling all of these thetans, which is just another name for spirit that makes it sound less recycled” and it gets intentionally crazier as you get to the higher tiers, which requires considerable wealth, so that only the most mentally ill reach it or the most manipulative do so, with the relatively normal people on the bottom trained to win intense staredown contests to make them seem imposing for the PR when they are just empty inside and suffering from a cultural and economical form of sunk cost fallacy.
Generic ones sold as store brands by CVS, Walmart, Target and Walgreens
Generic Mucinex
Including Walgreens’ version of Anbesol, an oral pain reliever; Walmart’s Equate brand face moisturizer with sunscreen; and Rite Aid’s version of Bengay muscle rub.
Also and perhaps more important, the benzene is used to make it slow-release. So I think if you just keep a bottle of guaifenesin around and have another dose every 4 hours you should be better off. But I’m not a pharmacist so ask yours first.
Did you even read the article? It says in the article that the mercury waste is actually way below the legal threshhold.
One of the major initial concerns—the wastewater’s mercury content—stems from what experts believe may be egregious typos within SpaceX’s records. Lab reports indicate polluted waters contained 0.113 μg/L of mercury, while subsequent summaries appear to misplace the decimal point to show 113 μg/L. If the former measurement is accurate, then Starship’s wastewater contains roughly 1/17th the legal mercury limit.
About people just mindlessly hating on SpaceX: SpaceX is really important for the US society as it provides vision and a specific type of stimulation that would otherwise be hard to get. What makes you think the moon landings of 1960s/1970s were great achievements, but spaceflight today is not?
You telling SpaceX to stop operation is like a fish telling a bird to stop flying, because swimming is sooo much better.
Which measurement is accurate? The former, or the latter?
You also fail to reference the next statement: “… This, however, does not explain SpaceX’s numerous other alleged reporting issues, regulatory side steps, and disregard for federal and local concerns. In a blog post last year, environmental engineer Eric Roesch also pointed to previous SpaceX water samples reports that appear to omit measurements for nickel, a toxic metal. Meanwhile, the same chart lists multiple pollutants at concentrations at or above TCEQ and EPA standards, including total suspended solids, cyanide, copper, and chromium.”
What makes you think the moon landings of 1960s/1970s were great achievements, but spaceflight today is not?
probably because we literally invented digital computers for the purposes of doing it. The amount of technical construction and mathematics knowledge required to design build and manufacture the hardware of that era is lost, the space shuttle is one of the most incredible technical achievements of the US to date.
SpaceX doesn’t even use large rocket engines because they’re hard to build and impractical, but we managed them perfectly fine in the 70s

Breaking up homeless encampments doesn’t fix the fact that these people have nowhere to live! What a cruel policy.
Why not emminent domain overpriced apartment buildings owned by the Saudis, Chinese, and Russians, and give the apartments away the homeless. Problem solved.
You don’t understand because your never consider the consequences of your actions.
Providing shelter for everyone is a basic human need.
But forcing mentally ill people mixed together with financially downtrodden unhoused people into a Kowloon City type environment without considering their ability to maintain their cleanliness and safety without imposing jack-booted level of policing is another level of stupid I can’t force out of you without an hours long face-to-face lecture where you and I can discuss like two friendly normal people.
“force your opinion out of you over an hours long conversation like a normal friendly person”
time for some self reflection there, baroque
i happen to agree with you too, as would i think anyone who has spent time in an american projects or shelter system, but youve so thoroughly poisoned the argument i cant take it up here.
Just enough to convince the people that are convinced of his innocence that he’s being wrongfully punished, those who don’t bother looking into the punishment to say"yep he got punished", and it’s not like they have anything to worry about from the rest of the population who will only be upset over a light slap on the wrist but not do anything about it.
Wellllll… no. Optimistically. They certainly are trying to work out the statute of limitations on his various crimes versus what chargeable evidence blah blah blah
You’re telling me the part that doesn’t care about feeding kids, universal health care, clean water, and clean air but is pro gun, pro war, and pro forced birth isn’t Pro Life? SHOCKED!
