“look at this photograph”

Can’t even be bothered to name them, they suck so fucking hard

Lol right. Give me a god damned break! You can’t be serious, you’re trolling, or genuinley know nothing of music.

I’m not debating that they bring the hype, people love them and yes they have their influential place in the history of rock.

I’m just saying in this era, I am lost as to why anybody would seek that music out. It had its place and it had its time, but that was like 50+ years ago.

I don’t need to hear these boots are made for walkin’, and I don’t need to hear I wanna be sedated. They’re anthems from an ancient time.

haha strong "no one beats Vitas Gerulaitis 17 times in a row” vibes

Live off the If You Want Blood album is the best version! Hype

Yes, look into the man. He composed a shitload of his music.

I personally don’t even like the man’s musical output. That said, I can recognize genius. The man was nothing short of a musical genius with very few I could even list next to him, perhaps with the exceptions of Stevie, Herbie, Prince, Eno, and other brilliant minds. The guy was out of his tree, but on a level of musicality most people can’t even grasp.

All your personal issues with the man are yours and not in dispute. I think a big difference here is that MJ was a musical virtuoso, not just a singer and showman.

God The Ramones are such a weak band. I’ve never understood people’s fanaticism.

More like Jackson Pollock painting with the medium of feces

Having worked in social services, I can tell you that women’s bathrooms are grotesquely worse than men’s. By a degree that is almost incomprehensible to the untrained.

I’m in agreement. Science tells us more and more that there is no safe amount of booze. I work in addiction services, and I’ve noticed that doctors won’t even prescribe benzos anymore unless it’s for acute withdrawal treatment, typically with a rapid 3-5 day taper. Because they’re mother’s little helpers - booze in pill form.

I also think the true underlying reason for less alcohol use isn’t a virtuous one. It’s that there’s just better mood alteration out there now with far fewer deleterious effects. I’m dating myself a bit, but when I look at how much pharmacological knowledge the average 20 year old has now, it takes me back to my youth when simply going to the library to get a book with information about psychoactive drugs was nearly impossible. And now looking back with actual science, I can see most of what I was able to research back then was tenuous at best, and outright fabrications at worst.

So I think people are engaging in mood alteration more now than ever before. We’ve just moved on from yeast poop mind-fucks.

I cook everything from scratch and I eat a ridiculous amount of fruit and vegetables.

I’m just saying, I know my body, and it seems to get really upset when I don’t give it animal meat. I have tried to transition to chickpeas and all different kinds of protein sources, hemp, my body just knows what it wants.

And really, 150 g of meat? Explosive diarrhea? You don’t need to exaggerate so much LOL

In regards to alcohol consumption, I’m glad you raised that. I’m also glad it’s going away.

I kind of follow these things a little bit, a bit of a nerd in this regard lol

I’m 51, and now I’m 10 years sober, so I have a longer view, and I have my own multiple viewpoints now that I’ve gone from a drunk to a sober dude.

I have definitely noticed a massive shift in attitudes from the younger generations now, compared to when I was young.

It seems the generation just reaching legal age now has almost no interest in alcohol whereas when I was young, drinking was almost a given. It was just what we did at every opportunity and all the socializing happened on Thursdays and Friday nights where we get mutually blasted at various locales.

And our federal government here in Canada has finally clued-in how hopeless it is to generate revenue with alcohol sales and taxation. They ran a study called the Canada Alcohol Deficit which showed that when you factor in all the social ills of alcohol consumption, we lose money on it by like billions. I can’t link it because I’m fooling around with mobile, but it’s an easy search.

But I think that attitude is across all the generations now, even the people who were hard drinkers in my group are not really interested as much. Our provincial government saw a precipitous drop of alcohol sales, and panicked and expanded sales across our province in so many ways.

So yeah I think it’s on the way out the door for good soon. People don’t want to anymore when there’s better and less destructive mood-alteration, and the government has seen the futility of booze.

I tried to go completely vegetarian but my body just goes on revolt. So I limit myself to around 150 g per day. But I would be down with eating lab grown meat. I mean, it’s just chains of amino acids turned into proteins right. Making that has to be an order of magnitude less footprint than growing and harvesting cattle.

Drive through speakers/mics that actually work

Get computer duster spray, mask off the area around the mole with duct tape, invert the can and spray the propellant which will freeze it and substantially reduce its size.

edit: clear the area of hair and oil, use a hole-puncher to make the duct tape mask. I’ve done this for warts, facial blemishes, those raised lip things… etc. Clean the area, use basic sanitation practices. Don’t pick-at or hassle the layer that scabs over and replenishes. Don’t go hog-wild with the freezing - try a smaller amount first and give it a week to see how it responds. That propellant is no toy

Trying to explain to renters that despite what the noise bylaws of the city say, those have nothing to do with how much noise they are allowed to make. They are allowed to make a reasonable amount of noise that does not disturb anybody at any time of the day or night.

Start by remembering that nobody gives a flying fuck about you, just carry on like nothing happened.

Really, nobody cares about you or anything you do on this platform.

Nobody cares about me.
