It is a fair point, being obese and poor can definitely be a a horrific feedback loop to get out of.

In developed countries anyways, you don’t really see it in places where food is scarce, of course.

I have a whole fucking family, who lived through the USSR. Not a single one of them misses it. Being spied on every step you take, my grandma has the “you never know who’s watching” mentality to this day.

That’s not to say they don’t hate the current regime, but it’s nothing compared to the absolute atrocities of the USSR’s secret police.

Well, I’m from a post-USSR country and a substantial part of this was the criminalization of homelessness. Can’t have homeless people, if you lock them up (be it in a prison or asylum).

Then again, just about anyone, who did not conform to the party’s message got locked up. Getting your place bugged at the slightest hint you might be up to something disagreeable and all that good stuff. The secret police could disappear and or beat you up without any real justification.

I hate late-stage capitalism as much as you, but coming from a country that’s been through this, I am extremely reluctant to give the rotten and frankly repugnant USSR regime any credit.

Isn’t that kind of where the current system is inching towards anyways? Rent, subscriptions, bullshit jobs and all that.

I hate Mitch as much as the next person, but he fucking survived polio. He could be mumbling incoherently at this point and it would still be a huge personal and medical triumph. That’s not to say he should still be in office, but mocking his neurological condition after having survived one of the worst nerve-infecting diseases is in extremely poor taste.

My friend told me of the horror of your menstrual cup falling into a public toilet. I’d take licking the bowl over that shit any day of the week.

Mitochondria is plural. Mitochondrion is singular. They’re still wrong though.

Honestly? You should.

I know, right? Why would you willingly keep a child? Just put it away or put it down.

I’ve been in therapy for so long, I basically understand it well enough intellectually to be able to help others.

I know exactly how it’s supposed to help me, but deriving actual benefit or being able to apply the techniques to myself has never been the slightest possibility.

Well, she did say only a small percent of people will get it.

I mean whether you’re checking your email, or not, just go do some meth. Your body will thank me later.

Seriously sir/ma’am, did you go to the beach that makes you old, or run away from a retirement home?

My dad when he chose not to wear a condom.

Have you ever lasted long enough, to find and defeat the final boss of customer support?

Lol, rose-scented shea butter, starch and baking soda deodorant all the way baby. You apply it once a day, twice at most, it moisturizes and nourishes your skin, lasts all day, there’s no plastic and you get to laugh in the face of fragile masculinity.

They taste like formic acid pretty much

Once I take my evening pills, I literally stare into my phone until I drop dead.

It’s really weird when you fall asleep with your phone in your hand, and your hand suddenly relaxes making the phone flop onto you waking you up.

It’s so odd to use that expression in Fahrenheit though. 70 is by definition just as likely as 130.

I went to a school where the admission requirement by law is IQ 130, and it’s not like you’d see the kids as fundamentally different from you if you’re within 1std of the mean (85-115, which is 68% of the population).
