  • Animals cannot tell you how much pain they are in. Their last days can be absolutely horrific. You have the power to spare them perfectly useless suffering.

    Vets strongly advise: better a week too soon than a day too late. Because that last day is unnecessary; it's there because you couldn't stomach the decision, not because it gave your pet anything meaningful.

    You will know when it comes. When your pet is dying from some stupid cancer and you did everything already and what's coming is nothing but pain, no hope, no relief, no nothing but suffering. You will make the right decision. And have someone come over, while you make their last meal something amazing, and they are eating a snack while they still have appetite to be happy about that and ignore the little pinch in the leg that brings the last sleep.

    And you will grieve in ways you didn't know you could, but it will still have been right because there is no sacred point scored from letting your lil pup die a few days later in agony you could have prevented but chose not to.

    2. I clear out the grocery store canned and boxed goods aisles and donate everything to the food bank

  • Cornish pasty and welsh rarebit are god tier. Ploughman's lunch and Lancashire hotpot are top tier. Yorkshire pudding is top tier. Haggis done right is a LOT better than you think (caveat, I was very very drunk when I tried it.)

  • I can't help with supplies but here's some ideas on top of the anti inflammatory stuff:

    1. eliminate sugar as much as possible, it's a wild inflammatory agent.

    2. fish oil supplements

    3. vitamin C

    4. lanolin or emu oil cream on your skin

    5. ice cold baths once a day as long as you can manage

    Good luck.

  • Dehumanizing the enemy! You would make a great Nazi. You're already partway there!

  • The god of the gap? No. I believe in proof and evidence, and once you have that it's not supernatural anymore. Isn't the real world interesting enough?

  • This is only true for exactly as long as the weapons are held, though. Unless you plan on holding someone at weapons -point for life, the power eventually reverts.

  • Medically speaking, exceptional isn't always a good thing to say. It sounds good, but... It's not always good. I do wonder if he meant it in the lay sense or the medical exception sense?

  • The problem with age gaps isn't age; it's experience and power. Three years is still a big percentage of your life right now. In ten years time, three years will not be as significant a part of your life.

    Think about how different you expect to be as a person in three years. Can you even realistically imagine who you will be?

    As far as relationships - they work out when the people in them have common goals, and they fail- no matter how much love is in there- when the people involved are going in different directions in life. Part of your problem at your age is that the direction of your like is likely to change drastically over the coming years in ways you cannot anticipate.

  • Every single fertility god and goddess throughout history is giving you the side-eye right now.

  • I would happily argue that the plastic is a step down; metal potato peelers last a lot longer.

  • Steel capped ends

  • Ceramic might be better than wood

  • Silicone might be better than wood

  • You're free to do other systems if you want. This is the thing I don't understand: just get some folks together, but some land, and do non-capitalism.

    Work or die has always been true for all of human history.

  • Everywhere people live there too live men tempted by easy wrong solutions to blame their problems on. The only way to eliminate that is to eliminate people.

  • The fact of our administration going full fascist does not reduce the fact of other fascist regimes who still hate our guts.
