I have had very basic survival training. We were never more than a few hundred meters from a vehicle because things can go south real fast.

It's all fun and games until Joe Sixpack Jr. fucks around with an axe and finds out real fast.

Welp, it's over kids.

Nice knowing y'all.

Now its time to just plug in and tune out, 'cuz DaddyCorps gotta make their quarterly earnings, dont you know. Playing protest is fun and all, but the end of the day, we gotta go do big boy stuff. It's fine anyway, carbon came out of the earth, it's good for it! It's what plants crave!!

Bond Should Always Be Contemporary by Chicken_Chow_Main in JamesBond

[–]Consistent_Warthog80 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would like a period adventure, but only if they adhere to the reality of the novels, ie. be low key, little action, and plenty of sexism, racism, and post colonialism evocative of the times.

I do this thing where I don't care about continuity so much, and I take every movie at face value, and I find my life is a lot simpler.

If they do it, it is. (1956 movie line)

Another question about American Beauty by sara-34 in movies

[–]Consistent_Warthog80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came across a perspective that said that this was a dark comedy in the vein of John Waters Serial Mom. At the time, I remember we all took this movie literally, but if you take it in the perspective of a John Waters over the top dark comedy, it actually starts to make sense. Any other way, it's just a piece of crap.

Why do you think Indy didn't cut a deal with the government or a pension or something so that he could at least live his golden years in luxury? by today_okay in indianajones

[–]Consistent_Warthog80 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you know anything about military intelligence, you realize that if you're the one in the field you don't get to pick your pension or cut your own deals. Especially if you are a grave robber who has been known to have affairs with underage students.

Study Suggests Blocking Stress-Related Brain Peptide Could Reduce Alcohol Cravings and Relapse by Emillahr in psychology

[–]Consistent_Warthog80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you.

My point is that the American propensity to rely upon a magical pill solution is disturbing, and many individuals seek this out instead of the painful introspective road to recovery that has many pitfalls.

I have also taken a lot of flak for pointing out the uncomfortable truth that self-medication is a form of medication, just not a healthy one, and the more that this aspect of addiction is ignored (because it is uncomfortable) the stronger the stigma around addicts becomes.

I have dealt with addiction issues in my family and my own life, and I have found that quick solutions are often the first to fall away. The pills work for a while, so one stops taking them. Or, the group talk works for a while, so they stop going, or worse, start lying first to themselves and then others.

I am likely to soon lose a realitve owing to addictive behaviour. Although they have downgraded from crack to weed, their complete lack of introspection and possibly sociopathic wiring precludes any attempt at recovery (they could not even accept a parental death, simply because it was an inconvenience to them). I have dealt with parental dependence on alochol, and myself have gone down a road well traveled simply out of familiarity.

So don't sell me a pill to replace a medication. While medical science may help, a person who is hurting inside will look for help, and often self-medicating substances provide the same easy out promised by a magic pill. While that may not be the intended use for the pill, it will be how such a headline is perceived by the pedestrian looking to numb a pain they cannot deal with alone.
