After my parents retired and had a lot more time to be home and just have Fox News on all the time in the background they defo moved more to the right. They can’t defend their positions without resorting to fox news talking points or “all policies are the same” or “you just have to protect yourself from the government”.

My sister and I are deviated that we’ve lost them to propaganda.

This is my plastic fork!

In 10 years you won’t even thing about this.

Just like I don’t remember which of my friends got their drivers license a few months ago before me.

It seems like a high deal now because you’re in the middle of it, but as someone’s few decades out, it’s not going to matter at all. Now that you’re an adult you’re going to meet people of all different ages and different places in their lives.

And most of it end up being because of things out of their control:

They have a physical illness or injury that slows down an aspect of their life.

They suddenly have to care for a parent, or sibling or child.

Jobs are suddenly available or not available, you might have to move cities, or across countries.

Everyone is doing things at their own pace. There is no reason to compare your journey against anyone else, because there are so many factors that got you where you are, and so many that will get your where you’re going, comparisons are worthless.

I sit down next to a guy on the train.

ME: Loads of cycle paths around here.

HIM: Really?

ME: Loads, mate.

HIM: How’d you know?

ME: There’s signs, aren’t there?

HIM: I guess?

ME: I love them.

(47 minutes of awkward silence.)

When we reach my stop, I get off the train with my bike. As I leave, I notice the guy suddenly looks relieved. As I walk away he looks at me like I was a random crazy psychopath on the train, then it finally hit me.

Do ya think so?

A bunch of them were found to have sildenafil and tadalafil in them. Which is the active ingredient in viagra and cialis. So those works actually work, but you’re better off using a company like hims or bluechew and get pills that you know exactly what you’re getting.

They filmed this at the town square set?

“It woz The Reg wot won it.”

Did I have a stroke?

Counterpoint: Steam

I’m thinking it’s more that public companies have a legal obligation to provide increasing value to their shareholders, so stay private, don’t be a dick. Grow at a reasonable pace. Avoid enshitification.
