  • Look there are two kinds of people with breaking bad.

    Those who loved it, and those who haven't watched much or any of it.

    My ex got me into it, and she's kind of.... Well, shes not brilliant. So I didn't take her recommendations too seriously most of the time (I really don't enjoy Teen Mom or 90 day fiance or 600lb life). But this? This show hooked me. It takes quite a few liberties with the sciency bits and lawyer bits, but it's fun even with a bit of knowledge cause it starts with something being "technically correct." It's well written more than anything.

  • Ok so like if China did do that, whats in it for them?

    Also, if the price of oil spikes will that cause a market crash that crashes the housing bubble? Seems like this might be a entirely-too-fucked-up way to make housing affordable again.

  • The PTSD folk? They were in the expelling force in '91. The others were in Iraq (mainly after 2003), and came through Kuwait.

    Kuwait was chill after the Iraq regime fell.

    Kuwait is right over the Persian Gulf by Iran. It won't be chill for very long.

  • Ugh. This kind of hits hard.

    I know people who are active in the military (yes they are stupid and yes it doesn't take much analysis to figure out they're probably magats). In particular I know several who have been to Kuwait and seem to regularly get stationed there.

    I've known several people who died by suicide from PTSD from Kuwait, or Iraq.

    There's a girl, she's a sergeant. She's in until 2028, been to Kuwait already. I don't know if she's even 23. She certainly doesn't come off as a magat. But it doesn't really matter. 23 is an adult yes. But to me? I'm 34? She's just starting life out. To get killed in this kind of war is gross.

  • Still, that's pretty impressive. Cats are absolutely incredible animals. I'm thankful the "worst behaved cats" still love me for whatever reason because I've been able to see some of the crazy shit they do.

    My parents have an entirely blind 18 year old cat. She can navigate the entire house eats fine, plays a bit. Hops up and down furniture, finds the sunbathing spots, uses the litter just fine. You do have to keep an eye out for her if your moving around as she can't smell fast enough if you step in front of her path.

  • See that's what I don't get.

    Let's presume I have the knowledge on how to find sex workers to begin with, then I presume I can afford one. Right there, we're looking at someone who is more expensive than a therapist without the training to actually help.

    In my head, a sex worker would be an entirely different kind of "therapy" from a therapist. Mainly because I have learned that I didnt exactly have what one would consider a good sex life in my previous marriage, and it has warped my confidence. Paying to have sex seems like the way to fullfil that innate need while still working on myself with a therapist.

    Still, there's a lot of other variables than would probably end up being loaded on the sex worker that I'm ignoring that probably isn't worth it in their mind.

  • Honestly, you now have me wondering too. While I try to think of what a stereotype hooker would look like, it's trashy clothes or club wear. That doesn't exactly narrow it down in reality.

  • Really? I couldn't get one pre-ordered at any store in town when it started online. Mind you I live where there are <250k people in the county. I figure I'll give it a couple of months since Nintendo clearly produced way more this time around compared to the Switch and compared to like the PS5.

  • Well where are the freaking switch 2s???

    The SD card reader on my switch broke a couple years ago so now it takes 7-8x longer to load anything, and instead of paying Nintendo to "fix" it again I'm just waiting to get a switch 2.

    But I can't do that because of scalpers
