He isn’t even in office he is a fucken civilian.

He has been talking to world leaders the whole time he wasn't president and especially in the last few months, do you not read the news or know how things work, dozens of world leaders have gone to Mar a Lago to meet with him while he is "a fucken civillian" these past few months.

What powers is he flexing that Joe isn’t? Fucking none. He is coming it late AF and claiming the spoils when he hasn’t done shit.

This is not even close, if you want to be charitable to Biden you can say Netanyahu was only willing to make a deal with Trump in office, if you reasonably don't want to be charitable to Biden you can argue like the article does that Biden used almost no leverage to do anything.

 

Donald Trump's decisive role in pushing forward the potential ceasefire is evidence that Joe Biden refused to use his full powers as president.

 

The chairman of Larsen & Toubro, SN Subrahmanyan, has come under fire for saying that employees should work 90 hours a week.

I wouldn't classify him as a "good thing", Trump says he will get rid of daylight savings, which is mostly agreed upon to be a positive in terms of people's health and safety, but I wouldn't say that makes Trump a "good thing".

It's possible he could cause a lot of harm in some aspects and then do beneficial things in other aspects. People don't just do strictly "good" things and other people do strictly "bad" things.

but dental is usually not included and most people pay it themselve

Children under 18 are covered for almost all dental care under the basic Dutch health insurance and therefor free of charge.

So you are wrong, you (most likely depending on your age I guess) had free dental as a child, the fluoride is aimed at children who are not guarenteed that in the US, it varies state to state and depending on your income.

So just a genuine question, but do some % of the population just have awful teeth?

To the best of my knowledge, kinda

There are definitely differences person to person on how prone they are to various dental issues.

I think it would be less important in a place with universal health care and dental care as kids would probably be brushing their teeth and get taken care of properly, but it's more dire in North America than you would think. Canada doesn't have free dental and America doesn't have free health or dental whereas lots of European countries have universal healthcare.

Owned by someone almost no one likes, shoves 1000s of ads down your throat, can't even look at something someone else sent you because you don't have an account. Why are people leaving???

You are a sad sad little person. Just block me. You can very clearly tell I am not a bot account, I comment on posts. Fuck off.

Just because you don't like the articles it doesn't mean they are "spam". Someone with 0 posts and 100 comments complaining about "spam", you don't contribute to this website and then tell other people not too, seems like you would happier somewhere else. God forbid someone posts too many links to a link aggregating website.

The justification is that tribes urged the government to save a species of fish, which fox news considers wasting water, no blame is put on corporations that use impossibly more water for snack cultivation eg pistachios which they consider to be the white corporation owner's god given right.

Personally I can't abstract the history of it being a fascist beer, just because it merged with a less fascist beer and various grand children sold their shares so they only own a tenth of the company their grandpa was using to fund the modern conservative movement that seeks to dismantle the very inclusivity it was offering to it's own employees.

I just can't square the circle there, maybe they were mitagating some of the damage they were causing by being inclusive, but calling them heroes is a bit rich for me.

The Coors family started the Heritage Foundation and gave a significant amount of money to dozens of right wing organizations, so I would not consider them "heroes" in any sense. You're losing the plot if you ignore that, for having a perfect score for inclusivity.
