we dont have healthcare and homelessness still exsists?

sounds expansionist

while, sometimes, and only sometimes, one doesn’t have choices, I agree with you broadly.

still swoops back around to one can only control themselves, and their own reactions to things.

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms- to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.

Also, you can have ice cream for breakfast and beans for dessert. There are no rules, and who cares what other people think when youre being harmless.

Unless, we then swoop back to that dude attacking you. That wasnt a choice for sure. Anyway, take care

we can only conrol ourselves

She could just be being nice.

I do this kind of thing for people, it does not mean anything further than, “look what I can do” and “please enjoy”.

came here to say just this.

If you enjoy it, then its not wasted!

I recently had my wisdom teeth removed, not with anesthesia, but the laughing gas. I would have let that lady pull every tooth out of my mouth while on the gas, that shit was so good.

Ive never had anesthesia, but my son did when he was 5 amd had his adnoids and tonsiles removed, poor kid woke up and just couldnt stop crying for a few hours, it was fear I saw in him for sure. poor thing. being held against your will is terrifying

holy projection from that dude.

People should learn that taking out misplaced anger on random ppl is not okay.

Sorry that happened. Olive green is one of my favorite shades of green. It prob my favorite color, I bet those boots are dope.

A story to remind folks to be kind to one another!

I read films too.

this headline could have been worded a lot better.

forever greatful the co-op by me has a fresh peanut butter machine, its only $2.99 a pound which isnt bad. At best the store brand US style PB is $2.50 a pound. Worth the 50cents imo, and It’s even a bit cheaper I save 10% by bringing my own jar!

I like baked potatoes (Mitch Hedburg)

Publix is Employee Owned if youre by one.

I too became vegan for a long time after being exposed to …the conditions.

I did instacart for 18months during them fat check pandemic years. I liked it a lot.

I had a 2002 Jetta VR6.

It killed my car.

killed it. early death.

then the tips went from $20 to $2.

Doordash is even worse.

stop eating garbage.

I forget if it was Julia Child or A. Bourdain who said it, but this reminded me: the “prettier” the plate, the more fingers have touched it.

This is true. It took me three years one time to get rid of, a well, we will call a pest. Three years. Aweful. I don’t harbor any hate to them anymore though, Ive healed and found myself.

But, as Im trying to teach my young son right now, we can’t control what other people do or say, we can only control how we respond to it. Noting, there is a big differene in reacting, and responding. Lessons I wish I got as a kid ya know? Its good stuff.
