Like an actor bowing on the stage, the crowd cheering and throwing flowers at you, but some of the flowers are cactii and it’s not just flowers there are random underwear and a shoes being thrown at you too.

Other than the basic cooking lessons we had in school I did a lot of trial and error when I moved from home.

Mum and dad did cook and I sometimes helped in the kitchen but that only gives you confidence to try, you don’t actually learn until you fuck up and bite into medium rare chicken.

If you suspect it you should request it. It should not be mandatory.

I don’t think it’s a common enough issue to do mandatory testing.

Sounds like you don’t really want to.

If the opposite is true we would expect to observe two parties with very different views and tending to drift further and further away from each other to capture the extreme voters.

Yes, improperly on qwerty before I switched to (a cursed subvariant of) dvorak. Now I do it with proper form.

You don’t win elections by convincing the far left/ right to vote for you. They will vote for/against you no matter what (or abstain from voting because they see you as equally too far left/right as your opponent).

You win by convincing the undecided voters in the middle. Every vote you gain from the center is also a vote your opponent lose.

Convince them you’ll give them better living standards and they won’t care what you do with foregin policy and minority rights.

Convince them that your priorities is minorities and foregin policy and they will tell you that it’s all good and well but they are about to lose their job and the cost of living is going up so they are just going to vote for the other guy that promises to fix that.

People tend to be less mean irl. Either because they are likely to have to deal with you again or because they are afraid to be punched in the face.

But there are mean people IRL too.

Where do you draw the line? Is only the most miserable person in the world allowed to complain? The bottom 10%? How do you compare someone who was piss poor but loved to someone who was rich but beaten?

Either way I think complaining about the past is a curse you put on yourself and any poor soul that you force to listen. You can tell your story, everyone has one, but complaining should be saved for something that can change in the future.

Pretty much the definition of entrepreneur. Start a business. Whatever you think you can do better than your competitors is a good start.

Looking at buying a house. Will get my first factory new hunting rifle, not pre owned as before. Over all things are heading in the right direction for me personally.

Why on earth would I want my tax money to go to that?

So far crypto currencies. So far they seem to expend a huge amount of electricity and used mostly for speculation.

My 60 something year old neighbour lady who is a mix of a Karen and some kind of new age Hippie depending on what mood she wakes up in thinks her mum haunts her apartment.

I miss my motorola phone. Maybe it’s because I forgot how annoying it was but my fucking god I hated my samsung phone for weeks until I had beaten it to submission.
