Inquiring minds want to know. How legit is the claim that Porn Damages the Brain?

I learn new stuff every day so just because I never heard this before does not mean it is not true.

A quick search pulled up an article from the National Library of Medicine that pushes this notion. The studies seem to be fringe.

On one hand it is only recent that medical science says consuming alcohol every day is not the healthiest alternative and that (pharmaceutically measured) cannabis is a safe alternative for treating pain. We know that big money influences which studies get funded.

I am really curious. Does porn damage your brain?

He failed

People think intellect is higher on CE than the rest of gamefaqs.

This law may be intended to be applied for selective targeting of parents.

I was feeling better for almost a day when the ceasefire vote passed.

The threat to democracy should be in everyone's awareness although there is no reason to lose sleep over it.

It just hurts

Israel not only has active and ongoing conscription of 17 year olds: you will be called back to duty after serving your time.

In the US afaik returning to service is voluntary.

I believe DeSantis would not be governor if voting was open on the weekend as well as Tuesday.

I am from the north and military age here is 18.

Where in the US is it 17?

US Military is mostly 17 as well...Where were you going with this topic

What I said. Israel says they are mature enough to vote.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Defense_Forces

They cannot vote until they are 18.

Why am I bringing this up? News and social media keep reporting behavior that seems immature.

Think of me, CE. I do not want Trump for President again.

Israel controls the borders so you kinda need to work with them if you want to send in 200+ aid trucks daily.

It was thoughtless of me to think Israel could not be less cooperative. Thank you for explaining.

Soon after news of the raid came out, tours were bringing buses of tourists by the home to watch federal agents continue their investigation.

Israel will stop working with the U.N. Relief Works Agency in the Gaza Strip, a government spokesperson said on Monday, accusing the aid agency of perpetuating conflict.
"UNRWA are part of the problem, and we will now stop working with them. We are actively phasing out the use of UNRWA because they perpetuate the conflict rather than try and alleviate the conflict," spokesperson David Mencer told reporters.

I was not aware that Israel was working with UNRWA.

I remember this being a lot more fucked up than these sensationalized articles let on.

38. On or around March 15, 2022 Sgt. Powell would bring up the topic of sex while he was on patrol with Officer Hall. He stated that he had played the game before, and could keep it cool at work.

39. During one such conversation, Sgt. Powell directly propositioned Ms. Hall for the first time. He stated that its just sex, I can give you what your husband cant give you. Ms. Hall responded that she was not interested.

40. Sgt. Powell persisted in requests for sex despite Ms. Halls resistance.

43. Despite Ms. Halls repeated denials, Sgt. Powell texted Ms. Hall during shift about how they could have a secret sexual relationship.

46. When Ms. Hall arrived, Sgt. Powell kissed Ms. Hall. He then pressured her to perform oral sex. Ms. Hall expressed concern about the fact that they were engaging in this activity in a public place, but reluctantly agreed. Ms. Hall explicitly stated that she did not want Sgt. Powell to ejaculate in her mouth. Despite her expressed limitation, Sgt. Powell forcibly held Ms. Halls head down and ejaculated in her mouth.

47. Within days of the jujitsu training, Sgt. Powell took Ms. Hall in his truck after shift for a sexual encounter. She expressed a boundary by requiring the use of a condom and Sgt. Powell agreed not to ejaculate inside her vagina. However, during sex, Sgt. Powell removed the condom, forcibly held Ms. Hall in place, and ejaculated inside Ms. Halls vagina. He said that it was okay because he had a vasectomy.

48. On another occasion, while engaged in sexual activity, Ms. Hall noticed that Sgt. Powell was photographing or video recording her without her consent. She became upset and demanded that Sgt. Powell delete the data.

53. On several occasions between March 2022 and October 2022, when Ms. Hall would make a mistake on duty, Sgt. Powell excused her mistakes on the condition that she perform sex acts with him later.

55. Sgt. Powell used his authority as supervisor to seclude Ms. Hall and coerce her into performing sex acts. On one such occasion, Sgt. Powell secluded Ms. Hall at a police substation and asked her to perform oral sex. Ms. Hall declined, but Sgt. Powell would not take no for an answer. He begged Ms. Hall to perform oral sex, stating that he had blue balls and really needed it. Ms. Hall felt that she had no choice but to continue to provide sexual favors to Sgt. Powell, so she performed oral sex as demanded.

57. Ms. Hall felt that she couldnt get out of the relationship because Sgt. Powell refused to accept her wishes whenever she told him that she did not want to have sex with him or when she tried to end the relationship.

58. On one occasion, when Ms. Hall tried to end the relationship, Sgt. Powell called her while heavily intoxicated. Sgt. Powell was crying and told Ms. Hall he drank an entire bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey. He threatened to kill himself, told Ms. Hall you did this to me, and asserted that Ms. Hall was responsible for his imminent suicide.

....do I need to go on? The full court text is in the link. I hope you all feel great for mocking this poor girl.

I hope she gets the 500K.

Does the vote outcome mean CE thinks Trump is a bully or does it mean that CE Trumpers will not participate in the poll?

Not exactly. I wanted to be a mad scientist.

Trying to work out what is happening at Kuwait Roundabout in Gaza City.

On March 11 and March 14 there were aid trucks and there were Palestinians waiting for food. Both times people were attacked with gunfire or artillery.

The IDF denies that they attacked on March 14 and goes on to say Palestine gunmen attacked the people and the trucks. IDF is not denying that they attacked March 11.

I am just trying to figure out what is being said.

Are you required to buy 100% through your company?

You mentioned tortilla products. There is lots of competition in that market. A local bakery might be able to produce your order.

No one wants to purchase tortillas from someone who hates Mexicans.

I liked it.

It is really sad that you do not know how many ordinary people lost their lives or were jailed or were deported before the work week was reduced to 40.

It is just as sad that American standard of living is going down instead of going up.

Enjoying activities less or engaging in them less. Like music, listening or playing.

The source is the BBC.

My original post quotes BBC so I am aware BBC carried the article and that BBC has a better track record than yahoo or MSN (lol MicroSoftNews has posted hoaxes ) but please be aware that BBC are journalists.

A peer reviewed article is considered a source.

The internet fayls when people get lazy. Chances are BBC does list a peer reviewed article. But seriously *facepalm*

OK but the real problem is your pay needs to equal the frustration level of the job.

Awesome but I would want a better source than yahoo.

"The hope is to ultimately be able to rid the body entirely of the virus, although much more work is needed to check it would be safe and effective."

Also needs to be affordable.

This is unforgivable and the mother was and is just wrong.

But CE is just wrong. There are more than 2 pages belaboring what a monster she is.

Fascinating.

TC, I feel for you. If I hear I hear of any strategies I will pass it on.

This guy works for one of the companies supplying your store? Try to schedule him before the store opens.

Scenario. Someone steals your wallet and you report it to the police. They come and take you into custody because you have no ID.

@streamofthesky

It looks like??? where are you getting this? It is a 3 tier graduation

It lowers the rate on the first million as compared to the current tax. The next tier iirc is 500K with a significant increase on that amount. The third tier is 2 mill and above.

Most homeowners get a reduction. The building I rent in is under a million being 100 years old but even though some of the new buildings on my block will be above the buyer of the condo is going to be taxed on the price of his condo which is less than a mill.

I want it to pass. I feel as though my city is filled with dummies who cannot be bothered to vote in a primary.

20% turn out and your vote may have made a difference.

Because the supreme court is being allowed to set policy.

These states actively make things harder for people to vote for a very specific reason. Your topic may as well be "The solution to voter registration issues to to have the states who are purposely making it harder stop making it harder. Job's done!"

True but it is more likely that people will overcome the restrictions than it is that insisting to their faces that they are doing what they are doing will remove the restrictions.

What if you're an overseas Florida voter?

You need Real ID to get out of the country. This is another issue. You are born here, grow up here, work here but they are not going let you travel or vote without Real ID

Some states like Florida and Texas require Real ID to vote. Sounds simple because you get a driver's license and you have Real ID.

Whatever.

State should be required to pay people compensation of $15/hour for their time spent getting the id. This should include time it takes to understand the procedures, acquire documents, traveling, waiting in line and waiting on hold.

State must pay people for failed attempts because otherwise the state will refuse people just to save money.

At the very least every resident who pays taxes should get a voters card.

This is worth a laugh (lmao) but nothing more. unless Trump polls show a downturn.

Brightens my day none the less.

At the very least Texas must be forced to publicly list who is detained without delays.

Add in the court allowing Texas cops to set immigration policies.

You have been keeping your mutant powers secret.

I own the game but I have yet to play it. How good is the story?

Texas is defying the federal constitution and Biden should just march federal troops in there when they start jailing US citizens and people with visas.

Not that Biden should wait but once Texas starts deporting American citizens the situation is more obvious.

Any sincere effort to rebuild Haiti is going to do it with labor unions which include working at home, unemployed and in prison.

A tyrant is just more convenient to deal with. Gangs are more convenient to deal with.

Look at major cities such a New York. Gangs! Easier to deal with.

Fill the world with clones if this is a problem.

None of the above. Standing on their feet is painful.
