  • I think the better statement would be both are emotional, which is simply part of being human.

    The difference is women are taught very early to regulate and cope.

    Ofc none of this is 100%, nothing involving people is 100%, but emotional regulation, coping, and patience within your emotions is something women have more practice with.

    I’m not saying no woman ever has bankrupted the family savings to buy a positive emotion inciting vehicle, but the numbers there would be…less.

    Practice matters.

    The galling part of all this isn’t Trump. Cluster B personality disorder doing Cluster B personality things, like spewing a false reality and demanding people believe in it, is expected.

    The galling part is all the dipshits following along. Most people ghost Cluster B, just not this country.




  • Organ transplant.

    There’s a board who decides which patients qualify for the list. If you are someone who sat in a chair gaming, from teens to 30s, pickling your liver with alcohol for the duration, thus killing it, you won’t make that waiting list. Two reasons. You can’t be trusted to care for the new liver. You’re not a useful member of society.

    Organ transplants happen when someone young and healthy dies, is in a position that those organs can be preserved, and the family, in the midst of their horror, shock, and grief, both allows the conversation and then agrees to the donation.

    As such, if that sit in a chair gaming and pickling themself individual has a billionaire dad, maybe they go black market? Otherwise it’s hospice care.




  • Exactly. $400 for mine. $100 would fill a shopping cart with groceries back then. Health insurance: $80-125/mo. Internet: $15/mo. Garage sales almost everything was less than $10, most of it was less than $5. Goodwill was a deal. DIY/homemade was a deal, a way to save money.

    It was a different time. There’s no equivalent to that time today, today is pretty awful.

    And now it’s all going to be so much worse thanks to MAGA, oligarchs, and Heritage.
