Be reasonable
Some songs are best loud, but slide them slightly off your ears when you get to those

Yeah, in the 1950s you were a big tough guy if you wore all leather and had tattoos.
Now you might be a tough biker dude, sure, or you might be a power bottom with a kink.
- Comment on I got out easy, I'm assuming 4 weeks ago:
A friend of ours had breast cancer, got treatment, it went into remission. Fast forward a few years, she thinks it might be recurring. She calls her doctor. Four month wait for the test. She decides to go South to the US. Pays a chunk, gets the test right away, yep, cancer confirmed
What would have happened if she had had to wait four months for a diagnosis? Would it have been too late?
The way health systems work now only makes sense in the context of profit and expense. People are used to going without so that either taxpayer funded systems can squeeze their budgets as tightly as possible, or for-profit systems can milk the last nickel from anyone in need.
It’s a disgrace. Whether the government budget is squeezed to control debt and deficit levels or people are abused and mistreated for profit, it comes down to this filthy, unfair, colonial system based on monetary and banking systems introduced in the later years of the British Empire.
People should be rioting at the treatment that the billionaire class deems acceptable for them. There is no practical reason other than greed for any of this.
- Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons? 5 weeks ago:
I remember stories from my dad about a guy he knew where the bar maid would have to help him with the first drink in the morning because his hands would shake so much.
The romantic history of the happy drunk is almost entirely fictional. I say almost because I know a few people who are able to take it or leave it, but for the most part the people I know/knew who were drinking either in bunches or daily end up complete and unabridged alcoholics, whether they are active and in serious trouble or have sought help and straightened up, but cannot touch it.

When I’m really craving something sweet, I’ll have a shot glass of maple syrup, preferably a light, early batch.
- Comment on negativity 1 month ago:
French style crepes, paper thin, with slices of ham and gruyere between them the first time, then maple syrup and/or whipped cream and berries the second time, to finish.

I like salvaging dried baguettes by busting them into chunks and then soaking them overnight in the cream -egg-vanilla mixture so they’re fully saturated.

Nah that was to be sure things were presentable if a very important person came by. People like Jesus Christ or a resurrected JFK judging by the plastic never having moved an inch for forty years
