I don’t have as much desk time as I used to. My back hurts because I’m old and I have done a bunch of different jobs that hurt my back in a bunch of different ways.

I wish I could do better than my parents but that is out of the question. I grew up poor, we were middle class when I was in high school, and then my boomer dad started making good money right as I was graduating and moved out. I make less less than half of what he was making 35 years ago, not even adjusting for inflation. I have no retirement savings but maybe I’ll get a small inheritance if I manage to outlive them both and medical bills don’t burn through their funds. I’m expecting to work for 60 years.

Whatever you are, everyone has preferences. I’d prefer to be younger and more attractive but I’d also prefer that in a partner even though I’m not that myself. I love the vibes of older people but not many older people have taken good care of their bodies. I get it, it is difficult.

That’s a no for me. Although I do make a version of jambalaya with no seafood and extra spicy. I love the heat and the seasonings but I’ll pass on crawfish, shrimp and anything else that filters shit as a food source.

The only problem is when we define everyone who disagrees with us as a fascist. I won’t go hunting authoritarians but if they bring a fight, I’m ready to finish it. That includes authoritarian fascists and leftists, because I’m not on board with either.

The purple version was the best. Mine from 1999 has had the most use and still works the best. I’ve bought new aftermarket controllers but none stand up to the old translucent purple.

What is an assault rifle? I don’t think what non-military civilians or police carry qualify. I know a few grandfathered fully automatic rifles are out there but they cost like $40k and they’re mostly in the hands of collectors. Most guns are semi auto and semi auto rifles are great for hunting things like wild boar.

I answer work messages before I go in so that I can give my wife my attention when I walk in the door. I used to do it in the driveway but now I do it in the parking lot of the shop around the corner.

“I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.
It’s in Luke chapter 1. I mean a lot of people believe believe none of it happened, whatever. But consent was part of the account.

She did consent though. It’s in the account.
- Comment on Praise Be 4 weeks ago:
She was called a woman by her cousin who was so old that John the Baptist’s birth was miraculous. She could have been older, not all women married young. But to be considered a woman she wouldn’t have been 13.
- Comment on Praise Be 4 weeks ago:
Old enough to be considered a woman, but culturally it could have been as young as 16.
When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! (Luke 1:41-42)

A lot of appliances could still be viable, but the best refrigerants are all banned. The modern ones supposedly are better for greenhouse effect, but they actively corrode parts of their closed systems, leading to consistent early part failures.

I had a project to track my calorie intake for a few weeks when I was 15. It was over 7000 calories a day.

W usually have four young people around the house ages 16-21 ((only three are ours). We’re lower middle class and don’t receive any food assistance. Our food bill straight up destroys our budget.
- Comment on Probably helps that I'm happy to listen to whatever genre 4 weeks ago:
All of the genres try to push the envelope to some extent. I listened to all of them. I loved the vibe and recklessness of nu metal bands like Korn particularly. It’s funny that two of the band members are Christian now. In my mind the songs pushing the envelope the hardest these days is shit like WAP. Can’t say I’m really a fan of that song in particular but I’m still listening to everything I can.
