You know how many smokers have/had their hard line on what price would make them quit smoking? For me (a 52yo woman) that was when pop breached $5.99 a 24 pack case. I would buy it again occasionally if sale prices dipped into that range, but having crossed that line it broke my habit. The thought of $7 for a 12 pack is just painful.
Similarly, I have an iPhone. It was provided by my employer for work purposes. It's about as enjoyable as having a small stone in my shoe that can't be removed. Oh, and the other shoe is half a size too small.
My Pixel is so much easier and makes more sense. I carry both when working and use the iPhone only when absolutely necessary.
"I'm still surprised people in the US actually vote only for people so old they can't reasonably do the job properly. I mean what's up with that?"
When it always comes down to 2 choices, it ends up being not much of a choice. π
Roasty caffeine π. Mmmmmm...
Sunny side up!
That baby is positioned upside-down. They should be facing backwards, then the back of the neck pivots against the pubic bone during delivery.
Yet the price is in euros...
Point being, the US is fucked but we don't have the monopoly on it.
It's been years since Go Pros were first becoming popular, but I remember stumbling across a biking forum and was appalled at the number of riders posting videos of assholes in cars trying to run them off the road. All it takes is once.
Cop gets spooked by a falling acorn, the cop and his partner unload their weapons at the handcuffed man in the backseat of the cops car, somehow not wounding him.
Something I haven't seen other commenters bring up that can have a huge impact, is the overall lifestyles people are living.
The unhealthiest years of my life were when I was working 2 jobs and struggling to keep a roof over mine and my 3 kids heads. Stress and depression were huge problems and money was tight, so sometimes the little bit of dopamine or serotonin from eating a "treat" were the highlights of the day. Add to that, the guilt of not being around to cook regular meals for my kids lead to 1) making large amounts of food on my one day off that could be eaten as leftovers throughout the week or 2) easy convenience foods (frozen pizzas, boxed Mac and cheese, etc) that the kids could make when I wasn't around.
Fast forward many years - my kids are adults taking care of themselves and I'm down to 1 good job that offers financial stability. My diet and health have completely changed. I actually have the time and energy to cook and plan better.
I'm not saying this to shift blame or responsibility, but to bring a different experience. When I hear (hopefully well meaning) people suggest "just cook healthier meals" it strikes me about the same as "stop eating avocado toast and you could afford a house."
Can you please not? Fucking hell.
Mom - "Stop playing your video game, it's time for dinner."
Son - "But I'm not hungry"
Mom - "Don't tell me that, I can see your teeth are hard. Now go wash your hands."
