Then why read news and not directly read the new laws and regulations that were voted and passed, or new proposed laws under discussion?

Because not everything is done as EU law. Frequently its an executive order or a directive passed down from national minister or other govt official to their branch or other branches to make their base happy at expense of people currently blamed for govt’s failures.

Eg. no law in Poland regulates legal gender change process. But there is a series of directves for courts on how this should be addressed issued by whoever is in the govt at the moment. One govt issued a directive that those are low prority, other that spouse and children should have a power to veto, another that actually those are high priority and then govt-appointed judges in the supreme court decided to veto the veto and implement new procedure altogether. And none of this is in the law - just directives for judges from pliticans and higher judges.

Something prevented these services from originating in the EU to begin with. If not overregulation, what's responsible?

We've had services like that. But US competition employing thousands of people and churning billions in budgets killed them off.

Might be a good idea to switch to low-dose minoxidil? It seems to have very few side effects, and even then they are benign for most people (slightly lower blood pressure).

Min helps with growing back and strenghtening hairs, but it doesnt stop hair loss on its own.

We are on schedule. People seem to need to get a reminder every few generations why authoritarians are terrible at running the country. Sometimes the process is peaceful. Sometimes it isn’t.

But the blame is not 100% on the authoritarians. The „we’ll refuse to do anything about your living conditions so you’ll radicalise and vote in somebody radical” is part of the cycle too.

What was it with em dash?

People usually don't type embdash, just use regular dash (minus sign) they have already on the keyboard. ChatGPT uses emdash instead.

Among young people (especially on TikTok, I’m told, not on that platform though) I would say he’s more well known that a figure like Stephen Colbert. Just trying to put this into perspective for those who aren’t familiar. Nobody can know every publix figure, especially these days.

I've only learned about this man's existence because I've returned to watching South Park when I've heard they are targeting Trump and his politics.
