$8000!!! THAT’S INSANE

Where can you get anesthesia for only $8000?

Interesting. Sad but interesting. I appreciate your comment.

I visit Prague often. I don’t know that I have enough exposure to feel like I should have known, but still I’m very surprised by the Czech Rep.

Well TIL what a Dittohead is hahaha

51yo Gen X here …

The thing I don’t get is that I see the logic to the theory of why someone would become economically conservative as they gain wealth, but it doesn’t quite track becoming socially “conservative” as well.

I’m doing well enough, and of a demographic, that I should fit the curve of becoming more conservative. But in addition to more assets as I’ve grown older, I’ve gained empathy due to personal and observational experiences in my life. Not surprisingly to me, that’s shifted my social politics to the left. Perhaps a little surprisingly, because of my growing sense of empathy, my “keep what I got” emotions are more than counter balanced by my “we need to help others” emotions and so my economic politics are also shifting left.

It was a risk not adding /s especially since I tried really hard to not be too absurd as to be obvious. I will take your unease as a compliment :)

A common misconception. Take the so called “light bulb” for instance. People think they emit light. They do not. They ingest darkness. They are dark suckers. They pull in all the darkness around them, but objects get in the way, and that’s why there are shadows. And when they’re full, they stop working. That’s why they have a brown spot when they stop working, they are full of dark.

Don’t fall for the light emitting conspiracy. LONG LIVE THE DARK SUCKERS!!!
