Just wanted to share that it’s possible that RISUG or Vasalgel (I think they rebranded as PlanA) will become available this decade. Look into it and see if that works for your needs (no idea how active you are). I’ve got kids that I’m hoping will never have to worry about a surprise (funny enough they are the very first planned offspring on either side of our families).

Best of luck to anyone facing this choice at any age.

This is the way!

There’s a Vietnamese restaurant in Redding, CA (or near it, can’t remember) that serves Belgian beer with the food. The right pairing makes both things better. Also pretty sure I’ve read some studies about what alcohol does to our tastebuds and general olfactory system. Can’t be bothered to look them up. Food and drink pairings are legit though. But an alcoholic beverage does not work miracles.

There’s also something to be said about a celebration where food and alcohol are served creating fun times and memories that could cause things to be remembered more fondly. Great food is great without alcohol. Great food with rot gut is no better and often worse.

I do like my fish tacos better with a beer.

I hope this idea of protesting at golf courses takes off. Doesn’t impact almost any working class people. Annoys the rich. Risks only trespass charges. Easy optics against the golfingest president that ever did golfident.

Great username!

Without sounding accusatory or negative in any way, it’s important to remember that this may be coming from a position of privilege. There are folks who won’t be able to participate in this boycott. It’s for those with the means to do so.

This reads like an Improv exercise and I LOVE IT! Unfortunately I can only get so hard.
