The thing is, I just don’t enjoy food that much. It’s not that enjoyable most of the time. If you’re eating the way your doctor wants you to it’s going to be unpleasant. It’s better to just treat it as a slog that it is instead of using it as an escape. Imo.
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 2 weeks ago:
The alternative is thinking food is more important than working toward securing a house that you own, or paying off your student loans, or retraining yourself so you don’t go broke, or any number of other things. Food is cool but it’s just not all that.

Yeah so basically what you’re saying is that poverty compounds which I agree with but in that case it’s not just $800 that sits between you and insulin, it’s a whole life filled with financial woes. Losing your house is a far worse situation than not being able to get $800. So let’s not pretend it’s $800 that killed someone.

Well typically it’s said “contracting out” when they mean making contracts
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
I’m aware of the point. I just can’t believe someone died because they didn’t have a credit card. Or something else equally baffling
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
I’m a person who knows cost benefit analysis. When death is on the table, who chooses death over paying some interest?
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
I would 1000% sooner take out high interest debt than die. What kind of question is this?
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
contracting is an interesting choice of word since it could mean decreasing
- Comment on Insulin 5 weeks ago:
do people just not have credit cards?
