- Comment on Does voting for Biden change anything if I live in a deep red area of my state? (Ohio) 3 months ago:
Always vote, no matter what. If everyone who said it doesn’t matter voted your red state might turn blue or at very least purple. Even if it still stays red it will be a sign that people are rejecting Republicans and could force change. Plus lots of races aren’t just for president and are local things which can be won with less then 1000 votes in many places so vote every time always.
- Comment on How do people actually dumpster dive to get free food? Are there any other cheap/free ways like this to get food? 6 months ago:
For the business I worked at we locked them because if it was open people would fill them up in a single night meaning we had to pay extra for a early pick up.
- Comment on How does the day-to-day work of not wearing shoes in the house? 7 months ago:
Did your wife grow up in a house that was all carpeted? And did you grow up in a house that was cement or wood? I could understand not wanting shoes on inside if it was wall to wall carpet or rugs.

As a former dishwasher that cleaned thousands of dishes a night the last thing I want is thousands of metal straws I have to shove a Lil brush in. Also theft, we had Lil metal ramekins at one place that lasted about 2 months before most were stolen or thrown away by lazy servers who just dumped whatever was left on the plate into the trash including the ramekins so I garuntee metal straws would not last in the restaurant industry. If you can’t deal with the disposable straws bring your own straw, or learn to drink out a cup like a big kid.
- Comment on Assuming a button that, every time you push it, your intelligence goes up. The obvious and sane thing to do is to push the button all day. Yes? No? Maybe? Is there something that I'm missing here? 11 months ago:
I am smart enough to know things are bad I would rather not know just how bad things are
- Comment on How do poor people in the states give birth without money? 1 year ago:
For stuff like in and out treatment you can but if you need ongoing care or prescriptions it would be difficult and either way if you get caught you are gonna get in trouble, fines, possible jail time so it’s best to just give your real info and just not pay or plead your case with the indigent fund hospitals usually have. All that said I’ve known plenty of people who have given fake info and have has no repercussions

You could just turn it all into glass. Realistically as long as it’s some holy place there will never be peace unless we actually kill everyone

Ummm… Insurance companies are all about finding ways to not pay and breaking contracts. You think average Joe can spend millions going against insurance companies lawyers? And what risk? They can hold people in court until they break them or they die broke from fighting insurance companies. Hell, my mother’s life insurance didn’t wanna pay and we had to get a lawyer just to make them pay a pretty straight Forward insurance policy.
