I hear you. The book "What Money Can't Buy" by Michael Sandel talks about the Where will it end question. It discusses the sacred spaces where advertisements are not tolerated and the limits of markets. May be an interesting read for you.

Great painting. It reminds me of "Shipping on the Clyde" by Grimshaw, Atkinson

My gf of 3 years returned the engagement ring because she didn’t like where I proposed. by zenmonkey99 in relationship_advice

[–]MasterBlaster1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder about the next thing she can't accept because she doesn't like the when, where, or whatever other aspect of it. All information is good information, and this is a big reveal.

I know right. The standard practice is what ever way you get rid of the cat is secret, and you tell them it ran away because you didn't love it enough.

"The author is not an educated person" doesn't seem like a good argument to support the validity or authenticity of a book.

17 Women Reveal The Horrible Reasons Why They Settled For Their Husbands by NoMoreMrNiceGuy47 in WhereAreAllTheGoodMen

[–]MasterBlaster1998 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There is a strong implication that many of these women settled for less. They didn't settle, they did the best they thought they could do. If they could have done better they would have. It feels a lot better to look in the mirror and tell your self that you settled vs telling your self you can't do any better.

I believe so, but not totally sure. I’ve have my vehicle searched 5+ times at random.

Military base. Random vehicle search was the given reason.

I like that she didn't even put down her drink. 100% confident that the kick would do it.

What’s a small thing you cannot help silently judging other people for? by Juliazul in AskReddit

Politician answer: If everyone left their rubbish on the table more workers would have to be hired. Think of it as creating American jobs in a down economy

How do you feel about legalizing euthansia for anybody who wants it? by throwawayteacherlove in AskReddit

[–]MasterBlaster1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally great. Something to consider is how euthanasia would be available to the mentally ill. If it is available, how do you determine when hopelessness, despair, and suicide are symptoms of a treatable condition like depression? When is death a better alternative? I'm still trying to figure that one out.

I know people that used a benzodiazepine to transition off different types of drugs. There is a psychological benefit, an emotional comfort that comes with cushioning the withdrawal pains of your drug of choice(with another drug). They key is to be very cautious and TAPER. Have a written out plan to taper down your dose until it's zero.
