Got a teeth cleaning today and my gums are sore. Apparently, my gums hurt because I don't floss enough.

Seems odd to me that if I flossed, someone sticking a metal pick into my gums repeatedly wouldn't hurt

That's some government logic right there
People are telling me to listen to the dentist but seriously you want me to take the advice of someone whose job used to just be the side gig of the village blacksmith?

Wake up sheeple

Big dentistry is supporting the multi-hundred dollar floss industry
(I'm joking, of course I need to floss more, just like every other American)

Just 4 or 5 years ago, this wouldn't be possible. There're a lot of great voices tweeting under their own names now who didn't feel comfortable back then and had pseudos. The climate is changing

It's awesome this can happen

I don't think the stigma is gone tho
That said, events like this go a long way in reducing the likelihood that careers will suffer from voicing independent thoughts. Props to @LadyLovesTaft for being the voice for the junior leaders. And to @PatDonahoeArmy for listening.
And for why I still believe pseudonyms are necessary and even valid, read this:

Aw hell, whose idea was it to sign up for this 10k

Oh. Right. It was mine. I had this idea. And the shocking thing was, I was sober when I made it.
There are so many good dogs at this race, oh my word

I must pet all of them

This is how I get arrested, isn't it
How is it that I've become a person that just *enjoyed* that run, and did it in a time that is somewhat respectable?

I need to go play Mass Effect and drink to counter these good habits

It's Friday damn night and I've had some wine and I've had some gin, and you know, I've got to thinking

Like

Ethan Allen. How did a dude who was basically a crazed religious land pirate get remembered as this upstanding father of the American revolution?

Obvs I'm gonna tell yu
Ok, so whaddwe know about good ol Ethan. We know he does shit in Vermont. He's got Green Mountain Boys. There's some fort Ticonderoga. And then...well, not much past that. Which is good because land pirrate.

Like, it doesn't start out good for him. He's born on Connecticut. Bad
I mean, IN CONNECTICUT, although also possibly on. I dunno, I wasn't there. That's the problem with the history shit. Ok. Um. Yes. Ethan's dad is SUPER DUPER religious. He gets borned just around the time when everyone's been having Great Awakenings and shit. Puritans gone wild

Apparently ex-Tory MP Phillip Lee was allowed to join the Lib Dems because his desire to ban migrants with HIV from entering the UK was based solely on health grounds. That was the excuse he gave to @amcarmichaelMP - but it doesn't add up.

THREAD.
When Philip Lee proposed mandatory HIV testing for migrants (so they could be banned from entry) it was against the advice of experts.

Amnesty, National Aids Trust, World Health Organisation and Terrance Higgins Trust all said that doing so would be bad for public health.
Here's a couple of links which all make the same point. Mandatory testing is discriminatory, creates stigma, is hit and miss and prevents people from accessing health services, actively increasing the public health risk:

Seems odd to say gaga lovers?

/ˈɡäˌɡä/

No longer in possession of all one's mental faculties, especially on account of old age.

Very enthusiastic and excited about someone or something.

I know he has called them lovers but has he ever called them gaga?
Take with a grain of salt, not claiming fact just sharing digs. 👊 anonhq.com/global-pedophi…
If people don’t realize we analyze Trumps tweets for hidden messages.

Its how he and many of us communicate. Just look at Trumps last liked tweet. He mocks those that think he is an idiot about it.

Today, France celebrates #BastilleDay The Storming of the Bastille occurred in Paris, France, on the afternoon of 14 July 1789. The medieval fortress, armory, and political prison in Paris known as the Bastille represented royal authority in the center of Paris.

#14Juillet
The prison contained just seven inmates at the time of its storming, but was seen by the revolutionaries as a symbol of the monarchy's abuses of power; its fall was the flashpoint of the French Revolution.
During the reign of Louis XVI, France faced a major economic crisis, caused in part by the cost of intervening in the American Revolution, and exacerbated by a regressive system of taxation.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether
