60% of ByteDance is owned by global investors, most of which are based in the US. 20% is owned by the original co-founders, none of whom have any ties to the CCP, and the remaining 20% is owned by employees, almost all of which are in California. The overwhelming majority of the company is already owned by Americans. This entire thing is all about trying to silence a source of information that challenges and refutes government interests, particularly where Palestine is concerned.

"Rarity of coming into contact with"?

Do you not know that Clostridium Tetani is present in nearly every sample of soil from every region of the globe? Present in the feces of most mammals? It's literally one of the most widespread bacteria on earth. You only think it's rare because of how effective vaccination has been.

Learn to redefine "clean". You're not living in a museum. Things don't need to be pristine and dust free.

I picked a day of the week, in my case Saturday, and chose one area of the house to concentrate on. Dishes, laundry, and any other "infinite work" chores can become overwhelming quickly if they're not kept up on, so there are frequently days where that's the only house work that gets done.

The unpopular truth here is that if you value cleanliness enough for this to bother you, you probably should have considered this well before your third kid. Just do yourself a favor and never, ever resent your kids for their messes. I hope you find a way that works for you and maximizes your relationships with your children!

Absolutely. Every other interface was trash.

And the official app and web interface were a port-a-potty upturned into a flaming dumpster.

How common was this? That was precisely how I discovered porn. Found a Hustler magazine on a trail I used as a shortcut between housing developments on my paper route when I was 11. Then found a whole stash of them in another part of the woods near a tree fort I built with some friends.

Pets don't get medals!

Except...

Apparently dogs DO get medals, but Chewie gets passed over. Chewbacca has sub-pet status.

It's edgier 2G for an edgier generation.
