  How to do that?

  Such ideal popular democracies generally need a culture conducive to those. Not all cultures favor democratic politics.

  This implies that the radical regime somehow was more conducive to US interests and did not in turn want to “sell their oil by themselves” too, which is… doubtful. Had that been the case things would have turned out differently.

  One of my past flatmates literally self-diagnosed himself with diabetes out of nowhere and started extreme dieting - made all sugar and high-carb foods haram and even started mixing his own flour to make it “multigrain”. Since we were sharing kitchen expenses all of our meals then started involving coarse bread and either chicken or tofu at all times. Made me constipated for a while.

  I think all he really wanted was an excuse for that diet and it does seem to have worked well in him; shame it didn’t do so on me and just made me eat outside more instead.

  Why do I prefer wearing the clothes and shoes that I’ve already broken in and gotten used to instead of crisp new items just out of the store? Guess I’ll never know

  I believe enjoying these things needs the kind of environment that had it been available, you simply wouldn’t need narcotics to enjoy yourself in the first place.

  Yes it does, but you need to want that first. Many people turn their misery into a comfort zone and refuse to move out of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is terminally lonely⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why won’t it be? You can be lonely despite having company.

  Tried, doesn’t work. Just makes you feel sick.
