Tommy: What was a syndicate? What is that?
Wilbur: A syndicate is like a… Is like a group of people with one underlying cause, almost like a government.

Solomon’s prayer for forgiveness
“When they sin against you – for there is no one who does not sin – and you become angry with them and give them over to their enemies, who take them captive to their own lands, far away or near;
and if they have a change of heart in the land where they are held captive, and repent and plead with you in the land of their captors and say, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong, we have acted wickedly’; and if they turn back to you with all their heart and soul in the land of their enemies who took them captive, and pray to you toward the land you gave their ancestors, toward the city you have chosen and the temple I have built for your Name;
then from heaven, your dwelling place, hear their prayer and their plea, and uphold their cause. And forgive your people, who have sinned against you; forgive all the offenses they have committed against you, and cause their captors to show them mercy; for they are your people and your inheritance, whom you brought out of Egypt, out of that iron-smelting furnace.”
- 1 Kings 8:46-51 NIV (2011)
Okay. This seems pretty insane if you don’t know what the existing state of terminally ill patients’ options is. So let’s go over that.
Terminally ill patients can sign up to be part of pre FDA approval trials for treatments which might potentially cure them. As these treatments are experimental, untested, not guaranteed to get results, and intended to provide profit to the medical provider in the long run, patients cannot be charged for these experimental treatments. As it should be. It’d be pretty unethical to get people to pay you to be your guinea pig for treatments which may not even help them.
This “right to try” law changes that. It makes it legal for terminally ill patients to be charged for experimental treatments. Furthermore, it removes FDA testing restrictions from the process. Currently a company which tries an ‘experimental’ treatment they know won’t work will get the hammer dropped on them by the FDA. But under this new process, medical providers would be legally allowed to provide ‘treatments’ they know won’t work, without oversight. This would legalize medical predation on terminally ill patients.
Labeling this bill ‘right to try’ makes it seem like terminally ill patients aren’t allowed to seek out experimental treatments right now. But they are! All this bill does is make a terminally ill patients more financially burdened and more vulnerable to predation.
That’s why the Democrats blocked it.
Thank you for explaining it

Yeah… let’s NOT let companies make terminally ill patients pay for “experimental treatments” they already know don’t work…

Thorin disappeared after the Battle of the Five Armies, in all likeliness dead. And so, since Bilbo is his husband, he becomes King Under the Mountain. How is he, a simple Hobbit from the Shire who just has his heart broken into a thousand pieces by grief supposed to rule over the grandest Dwarven kingdom in Middle Earth all on his own?!

God this is beautiful. Sorry this is 5am and I cant really form words but thank you so much this is beautiful. Bless. Absolute gorgeous.
I love how soft they are… the colors and setting, wonderful. Glasses!Kaiba is Perfect too, I didn’t know I needed him until recently. Glasses!Kaiba is Great. Mokuba is very cute too.
I love how they started so… Casual. It might be sudden, but Yugi didn’t mind. He’s just happy and eager to let Kaiba in. It’s such a good build-up for Rivalshipping to actually happen; them bonding over their shared love for Atem, how they grieved together, and seek comfort to each other.
I love that maybe Kaiba’s there to seek comfort himself, maybe, at the beginnings. And then it developed into their own casual hangouts.
I can’t really explain it well but I love this. Thank you so much!!

“How easily you flit from villain to villain.” Anger rolled off them in waves, choking the air. “Perhaps it’s time I clipped your wings.”
