How is it irrelevant? If you are going to be so dismissive, you could at least use a "because" followed by reasoning... Otherwise i will dismiss your conclusion as flawed... Because at this point it is.

Some of that isn't a choice. I know Bond traders that make millions a year, but are constantly overextended financially because, really, they are addicts. They have to take risks at all times... It's a compulsion like any other addiction.

Turmeric is the best thing for my tendonitis to almost a miraculous degree. Take that for what it is worth.

My state'a standardized test says kids are "at risk" if they aren't in the top 40% of the test. The top 50% could all be traditional "a-b" students. But because they weren't in the top 80% of a-b students they are at risk for failing academically.... It's so asinine and disheartening. The last half of the year is devoted to this idiotic test. Kids could be learning stuff that will enrich themselves... Instead they are learnig how to take a test better.

I think your point makes sense if the meme defines "work" as broadly as you do: "any labor.". However, i read the meme to refer to "work for others.". So i think your criticism of it is on shaky ground because that criticism assumes and requires the existence of an intent that was not present.

Working for our own benefit or for the benefit of those we love is a natural inclination. Working for others, often harder and at a detriment to our own personal joy, without a comparable benefit to us and our family is not natural.

Ok. You don't understand what sustainable means. Got it.

Huh? Your response doesn't make sense. Were you intentionally ignoring the point of the op: coffee is more sustainable than non-renewable resources?

That's like saying sunshine is free and then somebody trying to argue against that point but criticizing the price of sunscreen ...

It's not as convenient, but a moka pot makes the best single serving coffee I've experienced. You can get a small version for less than $30. It takes me less than 5 minutes to make a barista level cup, and even the more expensive coffee is going to cost less than 50 cents per serving.

The only downside is the coffee is highly caffeinated--nearly espresso levels. So you're forced to add water if you just want a "cup" of coffee and it's more of an Americano-style. But the taste beats the shit out of drip or Keurig cups...imo.

So long as both sides suck capitalism's cock, that's what you get. Plus most of the 300+ million are too tired, dumb, or blinded to care about anything other than meaningless talking points. So we are left to vote for an imperfect candidate that is less likely to make the hellscape worse. The stakes are high, but i can see why fatalism just sets in and people say "fuck it."

I think all of their albums have songs equal to or better than SFTD. Is SFTD the most consistent throughout?? I don't know. This coming from a guy that had SFTD in his cd player from 2002 to 2006. I
