I recall 20+ years ago they had something akin to hyponosis that was supposed to change how the brain processes the pain. Or something. Unfortunately I didn't stick with it but I wish I did.

It's a little bit of both-sidesism, which, if I'm being honest when the polls are this razer tight, should we really be taking shots at the only person standing in the way of "The Return of Voldemort", as they said? I don't know, they're valid criticisms so it's hard to disagree, but I'm not sure whatever objective he's trying to achieve is the best one to pursue at this exact moment.

Would you e.g. trip a fleeing suspect to help pursuing police catch them?

There's one time I don't always feel great about. I lived in a bad part of town when my wife and I were at our first apartment. I was making a routine trip to the mailboxes when rounding a corner, I saw a kid running for his life directly at me and an officer chasing him cursing and yelling at him to stop. I made like I was gonna side-step, but then I flung an arm out almost like a clothesline move and caught the boy, and as he slipped away I grabbed his arm and held on tight, while he started screaming and crying. When the officer caught up he drew his friggin gun on the kid, who promptly laid down on the ground. I just stepped away and kept walking on. Apparently the boy had hijacked a car and tried to hit the officer with it. Other officers showed up but then yelled at the guy over some jurisdiction thing. As I came back with the mail, the other officers had sat down with the boy and were seemingly trying to calm him down while explaining the seriousness of the situation. I just remember the boy saying "how you gonna arrest me, though?" -
I gave up buying stocks when I saw how continually under-valued AMD always is. Either investors are too dumb, or I am, but despite pretty much batting 1,000 with one fantastic generation of products after another, almost without fail the stock falls whenever they announce something new. Just today their stock fell in response to an extremely positive earnings call, particularly around the rapid growth of their AI products, just because the guidance for their other products was down some.

I worked at Universal Studios Florida for 8.5 years. Every time I see anything related to Minions a giant ball of acidic bile works its way up my esophagus.
