I don’t think sitting in a Wow discord saying “I hope the game that brought us all together shuts down” is “just life” but idk. Maybe I’m wrong for enjoying wow.

i don't think anyones wrong for enjoying wow

#

i don't like blizzard, they have done shitty things, I would enjoy if they failed but ultimately it makes very little difference in my life

but it sold itself as a healthier alternative

#

and NOTHING happens

brazen eagle
#

i mean thats advertisment in a nutshell

#

alcohol is one of the deadliest drugs, yet its sold to even children

peak solar
#

aren't most vitamins in america just straight up not checked

#

for accuracy

brazen eagle
#

its regulated but loosely enough that you can get it before 18+

peak solar
#

that too

#

lots of weird loopholes

brazen eagle
#

the diffrence is alcohol is not as destructive as some other drugs like meth, you still function and its a slow killer

#

same with smoking, in fact a lot of countries did promote it

#

after a popular study was shared that smoking would mean less pension payouts

shell sparrow
brazen eagle
#

it depends on the country

shell sparrow
#

you can get hard drugs before 18 as well

brazen eagle
#

and what you define as children

shell sparrow
#

and many do

shell sparrow
brazen eagle
#

well you can buy a lot of the alcoholic products here with 16

calm elbow
brazen eagle
#

there are exceptions, the higher vol % stuff is typically regulated

#

some shops don't age check correctly

#

so you often even have 13/14 year olds consuming alcohol

shell sparrow
#

that will not change with any regulation

#

teenagers will try stuff, especially if it's a forbidden fruit

brazen eagle
#

point is, consuming alcohol is also one accepted thing

shell sparrow
#

lesser poison

brazen eagle
#

so one more thing we precive as harmless and which is socially accepted

shell sparrow
#

I don't think we treat it as harmless

#

you can fight the urge or try to work with it

#

same as with narcotics

brazen eagle
#

people know about the consequences of excessive abuse

#

but what amount of consumption is seen as harmless/normal highly depends on where you are from

#

e.g. people for a long time thought of one wine glass per day as healthy

shell sparrow
#

even not abused alcohol is not doing any good for your health, apart from maybe wine for heart but I haven't looked into research

brazen eagle
#

and there are even studies that showed light alcohol consume to improve health (even tho most of them are just not very conclusive or have a too small test group)

jolly junco
#

they want to legalize THC to suppress peoples dreams / dreaming in rem sleep

#

Dr who did the first open heart surgery said it came to him in a dream. coincidence? i think not my friends.

brazen eagle
#

from what i found in papers, the main conclusion is that you can't find any evidence for alcohol to be bad with very light use. But then more you consume it, then worse it gets

#

which makes sense tbh

#

same with smoking/vaping/etc

peak solar
#

like marijuana

#

if shit gets bad enough they might just start sellin coke out of walmart OMEGAKEKW

brazen eagle
#

and my personal experience with people doing alcohol/smoaking/obesety/etc is that they don't think that their lifestyle choices had any impact on their health

subtle quail
brazen eagle
#

unless its very obviouse, you can't blame anything else than alcoholism for a very damaged liver

This doesn't take into consideration the totality of the suburban commuter, or even the invention of the suburban commuter and therefore the majority, the overwhelming majority of motor vehicles purchased in the first 30 to 50 years.

Hint: America did not used to be a debtor's economy, loans and financing came about because people simply couldn't afford to pay for things otherwise.

Something like that anyway.

It's really just that the beer, in 1933, was bullshit dog piss that nobody wanted, and that the coffee today is the absolute best coffee that's ever been brewed.

Not even that, they're going to need a tremendous amount of logistics for legitimate construction

Those bunker busters ain’t building themselves

And as good as weapons manufacturing is for making money, the construction graft is even better

pulsar trail

Me dealing with reality

hasty nova

An industry where nothing ever goes as planned, everything is always late, everything is always more expensive, and all of that is expected.

This on top of having the very real ability to cook the books to such a degree that it would make a younger Donald Trump blush.

construction must be one of the biggest corrupt things ever too

Get in bed with the very real ultra nationalist gangs that are going to come out of eastern Ukraine to make sure that your competitors can literally never finish a product or project

How come Texas’s power grid has more issues AND costs more than everyone else’s?

He’s seen it go bankrupt 4 times since he immigrated here

Hilariously, the pathway out of that fucking hole is probably the full ram back into Dodge and actually do something with Chrysler

Dump all of the failing European brands that they picked up over the past 200 fucking years

Remember when Mercedes bought Chrysler to steal the powertrains from the jeeps?

#

And then left it to rot?

Took all their decent American production factories

And just gut it for anything useful

hasty nova

Nationalize the fucking automotive industry I'm not even kidding

Only one American company showed it deserves to operate

#

They liquidated all their assets lol

To avoid bailout money

#

Sold off jaguar and land rover to Tata

#

Consolidated their fleets

Sold off Aston Martin too I think

#

And sold Mazda back some of their shares

That reminds me that stalantis owns Maserati

Or something, fucking ridiculous

It sure does!

#

And Ferrari

hasty nova

Yeah I don't think that they own them for very much more time though, or at least they haven't driven that thing into the ground or into the side of a cliff, or off of an Italian alp

hasty nova

Not too sure what that's about honestly

To buy Chrysler

The new alfas look really nice

The new alfas are very good

Like VERY good

pulsar trail

Priced to be very good too

hasty nova
#

Yeah but I have no idea how the servicing is with those cars in America

pulsar trail

Depends on how hard stellantis tried to make their mechanics more than useless

hasty nova

Just get a robot to do the maintenance after a robot has scanned your car to find all of the microscopic imperfections are now going to have to spend more money on
