Cavendish or Gros Michelle?

over here you get up to 7 other patiens in the same, unventilated room. Including patients who have air-transmittable infections
That’s a surprisingly apt description of Hell, at least for me.
My friend was at a much nicer hospital, albeit they didn’t see anything made of gold. They had their own room. It certainly wasn’t paradise; I think the recovery from sepsis gave them a clarity of mind and purpose that transcended the casual discomforts. Plus they were medevac’d 400km from their home, so they were more socially isolated than normal. Sort of like a monastic experience? Thankfully they have excellent insurance, so the medical costs weren’t a giant concern like they would be for most people in the US, which probably would have been mentally debilitating otherwise.

My best friend spent a week in the hospital with a life-threatening condition. Besides the almost dying part, it was the most relaxing and life-refocusing event of their adult life and they’re grateful to have experienced it. A forced reset and some compulsory solitude can be a blessing sometimes.
Were I to ever go to prison, I think I would personally love to get some solitary confinement time.

Pretty sure with the current ongoing conflicts, WWIII has already kicked off and we just haven’t fully accepted it yet.

It would be nice to see shelter and support being provided, rather than a bisected bench designed to discourage the ability to comfortably lie down for a night’s rest.

I suppose “populous” could be contextually nounified in niche circumstances.

“No kid should ever have to sleep on the streets, so we made it borderline impossible for them to physically do so. Hopefully their bootstraps figure out someplace they can sleep, because we sure as hell didn’t. You’re welcome.”

I just learned a prison in my municipality has its inmates train dogs.
I went looking for a sign up sheet. Found none :(
What’s the softest way to earn a stint in prison?
- Comment on Priorities 4 weeks ago:
Nothing wrong with it if you were, tho. Nothing wrong with you not being, tho. Nothing wrong ever. Except maybe nonconsensual anal sex, but only because it’s nonconsensual.

Nah, I get that exposed flesh isn’t always comfortable or safe and the practical solution is to just steal the skin of some other animal (or convert crude oil into super soft knit fabrics). I’m just of the personal mindset that if someone is comfortable enough in their own skin that they are completely fine going about their business in the buff, that the rest of society shouldn’t lose its shit and just be like, “k whatever u do u naked person wear sunblock.”

This is a case where every other organism on earth, except for maybe the junk bug, looks at humans with a confused air of disdain. Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?
- Comment on Dogs 5 weeks ago:
Hotdogs are fine. They’re already cooked and ready to eat straight out of the package. Some might even say they’re palatable in this format. None will ever say they’re healthy.

The implicit desperation makes it cringe.
Possible alternative: Goth girls love me. Because I’m vulnerable and a little scared of them.

I recommend reading The Dictator’s Handbook by Bueno de Mesquita and Smith. As CGP Grey says, no man rules alone. Even Trump has to answer to key supporters in his coalition or face an ousting.

Sweet! I can’t wait to watch them have a total change of mind and heart as they realize their mistake.

- Comment on I knew one day I’d have to watch powerful men burn the world down. I just didn’t expect them to be such losers 2 months ago:
Living your life to impress other men by hating women is one of the most embarrassing things I can imagine. Looking up to any of these men for how to live your life is even sadder.
I’ve worked hard to keep these kinds of men out of my personal life, to keep them away from me, out of my goddamn sight. Now they are in my face daily, not only influencing the world for the worse but making me nauseous at how uncool and pathetic they are, on top of their other sins. It’s too much, I can’t take it, there needs to be a change.
It’s time for us to start getting revenge on the nerds.
Sounds to me like they crave attention more than anything, poor insecure past-neglected angsty man-agers they are. Depopulating their various platforms and reducing their viewership would be nice. Sucks that anyone at all would feel inclined to lend them their ears and eyes when there are far better alternatives out there.

Do they actually say what “TGI” stands for? Is there some legal document that says its full name is “Thank God It’s Friday’s”? Maybe it actually stands for “The Grumpy Intestine Friday’s”.

The hypocrisy is unreal. I have been successfully holding onto my final shred of hope in the goodness of humankind, but this tips the scale. I give up. Now I only have despair in the badness of humunkind. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to drown my sorrow by bingeing on Napster, Scour, BitTorrent, newsgroups, and Gnutella.
