Once again, the whole of society must reorient so that parents aren't mildly annoyed with their toddler.

Anecdotally, getting a water flosser device has greatly improved how my mouth and gums feel. I’ve never been a big flosser, have never had a cavity either. But that water pick thing is really nice.

Trying to figure out how I can hack together a media device that meets the following requirements:
- Plugs into a TV via usb or hdmi without any additional power cable
- Automatically starts playing a video file that's stored on the device
Best I can figure is a fire stick or equivalent loaded with an app I found that will auto play video files, but those seem to require a power cable plugged into it. I thought about just using a USB stick with the file(s), but that would make the user navigate the file system and play it through the TV's media player - a bit more friction for the user than I'd like. An hdmi port doesn't supply enough power to run a raspberry pi so that idea went out.
Is this even possible?

It seems far less likely to me for an animal in captivity to be infected with rabies, whether squirrel or raccoon, than one living in the wild.

squirrels almost never have rabies and literally have never transferred it to humans
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5763497/
Exposure to rodents and lagomorphs has never been implicated as the cause of infection for a case of rabies in humans in the United States, nor are these animals considered natural reservoirs of the disease.

They'll still take local housing and compete with local businesses. My point is only stopping employers from hiring them isn't enough.

You'd have to criminalize renting to illegals, both residential and commercial. And selling property to them too. Setting up a business entity/LLC. They can and do just set up entire mini economies in some areas of cities. You'd have to criminalize so many different things to make moving here unappealing. And I'm sure even then there'd be a way for them to enjoy their lives here more than in whatever country they came from.

Probably some nationalistic pride in the face of a growing pushback against their presence in the host country.

Democrats believe Trump explicitly wants to put his political opponents in jail and that he has no respect for the law
I just find it all so tiresome. Trump had the opportunity to jail his political opponents and didn't even try. Meanwhile, the democratic machine is going to extreme efforts to strain legal precedent in order to put their opponents in jail, and have had varying degrees of success. I have to believe that this is purely projection.
To add onto this, my understanding is that there is some percentage of the population for whom oral vitamin D supplementation does nothing unless you also supplement vitamin K. I took D3 for a year every day consistently and it had no effect on serum levels. Once I started taking a D3/K2 supplement, it rose to normal levels and I feel great.
