  • Americas entire culture around guns needs to change, not just a little bit more training and education.

    People who misuse guns don’t respect them or the power they yield. They views them as toys, and more often than not fuck around and find out.

    Teaching them how to lock a gun up and telling them it’s important won’t change behaviours until people start to respect guns and fear them. Not casually pose with them for Christmas cards with their grandbaby in the room.

    I envy that you have a life where you can use cruise control when you are in your vehicle.

    If I am in my vehicle it is usually to go to work, which means crowded highways and people who cut me off or can’t maintain their speed worth a damn so if I use cruise control it’s only for like 5 seconds before I either have to hit the brakes move into another lane.

    It’s ridiculous how acceptable people think it is.

    I have someone I work with that seems to think the faster he goes the more important and busy he is, therefore he can treat everyone else on the road that follows the rules like they are just retired old geezers with nothing better to do.

    It’s infuriating. There is nothing I hate more than people with no patience or ability to plan ahead and leave at appropriate times.


  • You stated “companies that use toxic stuff always deny its toxic, then if forced to admit it’s toxic say it is in amounts too small to affect you”

    If someone died from drinking too much water, nestle would also be forced to admit that water is dangerous, but it’s safe to consume in amounts too small to affect you.

    There’s lots of stuff that is toxic but perfectly safe to consume in small doses. Tylenol, aspirin, etc. pretty much any medication, Numerous foods, etc.

    When I think of older men having kids I mostly think of how unfortunate it is for the kid.

    By the time your kid is 20 his dad will be 72, which would me like, on average he might get 5 more years of having a dad. If he’s lucky maybe 10-15.

    Sorry to be macabre but it is something to consider.

    Ugh I love being absolutely loaded up with covers from toes to chin, but yes it can’t be on a hot summer’s day with no AC.

    Love me a good cold winter’s night with the windows wide open and the floor fan blasting wind right into my face though.
