Yup, that was me. Sorry for mixing you up. I guess you spoke to me like a human there first, that's why your name stuck.

I feel it still doesn't take away too much from my argument. While OP's post is outright malicious and is meant to start a fight, I wasn't doing that on what I thought was a proper place for discussion.

Again, I don't want to jump to conclusions, and I did make a mistake, but don't you see what I'm trying to get at?

It feels a bit disingenuous to hear the following:

to engage in productive conversation with Marxists.

I mean I got your point the other day, that I shouldn't necessarrily argue about Communistic dogma without reading all the literature, but I had to fight tooth and nail to get to that point and not just be waved away as a bad faith actor. So I was already working hard just to be told to go and read up.

OP is using the same intensity hammer you guys got going on over there. Is it fair?

I don't disagree, but unhappy to report I have the same power over either outcome.

Hmh. I am surprised to hear of this here first. Maybe I'm not subscribing to a balanced media diet, but I didn't know Paks II was on pause because of America. Troubling because any and all sides could have politicized it.

I think I was able to bring the 'at' closer to the time, but I'm not sure it's correct:

'This can't possibly be the same 9pm I used to start getting ready at for a night out'

I'm tempted to remove the 'used to' and just put it in simple past for brevity, but that would hold back half the punch.

This is one of my favorite types of discourse. Polishing jokes and grammar in the gravitas it deserves.

Truly wonderful.

You need the gaming in this lifestyle to help divert attention from not being able to get comfort foods at month's end.

Otherwise it leaves me all the time to realize the physical and mental hells I am putting myself through. I've been qualified for free health care for over a year, but I just arrived to the point where I can reach out and engage the system. I initially thought enrolling would come in handy if I get into an accident, but last week I made the call to start preventive treatments.

I have an appointment with an actual doctor next month. I am also getting the ball rolling on the emotional side. I was contemplating moving back home, but now I might give this current iteration some more time.

edit: i just reread the title (of course I didn't read the article); I'm 40.

I've heard that the high tide was end of WW II. Sloping exponentially downwards, with the occasional oil boom or bust.

Oooh, I'm one of those! Gaming on foodstamps and social health in a US state, AMA.
