I'm not pretending anything. You're entire attitude is hostile and I'm done talking to you.

It's not excuse, but thanks for being dismissive of disabilities that might be different to your own. I'm not pawning you off as anything, and I do think we need massive reform and restructuring. But motorized wheelchairs are not a viable solution to someone who needs to get to a doctor's office 20 miles away, nor are busses a solution to someone who has severe difficulty being outside of their home for hours on end. Should most of us be driving? No. Should no one be using cars? Also no.

Some people also don't have physical disabilities or family members with them, and it really shows. Bikes are great, and we absolutely should be encouraging bike use, but the automobile is, frankly, a necessity for millions of people. We shouldn't be getting rid of wheelchairs, either. I swear, sometimes I feel like the fuck cars community is basically anprim. Yes, fuck cars, yes fuck car culture, but jimminy crickets they're not evil. Our use of us them.

But an excellent band name. Imagine "chemo for the soul" by Living Drugs, feat. 4skin

This would make an excellent recurring story on American dad wherein Jeff is secretly a Superman à la quailman from Doug.

Having lived in Florida, I can assure it, it's completely unreal.

Genuinely excited about this. I'm a big audiobook fan, but I've never done these kinds of audio stories, how different are they to audiobooks?

It was fricking good. At least 3/4s good.

Ended too soon? Too many to list. My most recent gripe is half bad on Netflix.

Too long? Most recent is nurse Jackie.

How do you do this? I've seen it for years, but never thought to ask before. Lol.

Commiserate? Not quite right, but almost there. I get what you mean, though. Back in wide eyed "the democratic party is wonderful and flawless!" days as a teenager I used to think of Canada as this sort of perfected image of what the US could be. When I found out they had their own shit, and much of it just American shit imported north, I felt terrible knowing others were going through these same battles, but it made me feel less alone, if that makes sense.

I don't have an ew response here. There's a long history of preserving body parts. There are books in libraries bound in human skin. Y'all will sit bare assed on a leather couch but get grossed out by this? I mean, I guess I understand it, but I just don't have that reaction.

I do want to know why they chose those three tattoos to showcase, because there had to be something better...
