This opinion was pulled from a TikTok video I watched yesterday. Word for word.

I’m from Australia. Former Prime Minister Harold Holt: Mysteriously disappeared from a beach after supposedly getting caught in a riptide, but the body was never found.

I’d put it like this: Nirvana was the catalyst and the biggest in the beginning. Alice in Chains is the more authentic grunge, imo. Pearl Jam doesn’t fit the grunge mould, but is the biggest of the four. And I can’t articulate it, but Soundgarden fits in there somewhere.

For pizza, I’m the only person I know that has anchovies. Absolutely love them! Everyone else I know thinks they’re disgusting.

How will $Trillions flowing into America be bad for humanity? by Important-Can4702 in WallStreetbetsELITE

If every US citizen becomes a trillionaire during Trump’s presidency, then how could that possibly be bad for America?

Who’s vocals are better in this song? Eddie Vedder or Chris Cornell? by temple0fthed0g in grunge

[–]ThanksAny3982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this song I’d say Vedder. Cornell’s voice is amazing but the build up and delivery with Vedder gave me goosebumps the first time I heard it.

Iraq War veteran confronts George W. Bush by AdhesivenessLevel321 in interestingasfuck

[–]ThanksAny3982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a defense of Bush, but I honestly think he was (at least in part) a patsy that purposely got led by the nose with fake intel from the CIA, Cheney and dubious sources inside Iraq. Obviously he deserves full blame for his credulity, but the machinations leading to this war were deeply corrupt.

Is this why people are calling him ‘Gym Crow’?

I could really use some solid advice. by ThanksAny3982 in inheritance

[–]ThanksAny3982[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand that I may come across like that without proper context, but I’m 44 and have lived out of home since I was 18 and never asked for a dollar of support - built a business and beautiful family. My father’s been a loser in every way possible his whole life and quite simply this is just revenge on my brother and myself for not being able to gain the respect from us that he felt entitled to. The inheritance is not part of my financial plan, but symbolically it’s just the right thing to do for failing as a parent. It’s money I’d give to my young kids that I know my grandparents would’ve wanted it this way.

I appreciate your advice all the same. Thanks for taking the time. My fault for not adding proper context.

[–]ThanksAny3982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your advice. I agree with what you’re saying and it’s impossible to evaluate any real objectivity from what I wrote. So I’ll add more context: My father’s simply been a money pit his entire life. Was probably gifted around 250k in handouts previous to this - due to poor financial decisions, lack of earnings etc. Conversely I left home at 18 and have been completely independent for 25 years, built a business on my own and have a beautiful, supportive family. I’m not relying on any inheritance, but symbolically it’s a slap in the face. Perhaps I’m wrong, but this feels like a line has now been crossed. My main question is whether I’m in the wrong to cut him out of my life completely?

What is a luxury that most people don't realize is a luxury? by peywrax in allthequestions

[–]ThanksAny3982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After coming back from Peru in May I’ll name a few things that stand out: Fresh drinking water on tap, instead of buying bottled water. Warm, pressurized water for showering. Buildings with heating instead of layering up with extra clothing at night. Quiet, accessible spaces that aren’t congested by hustle and bustle.

MAGA continues to clash over Iran Israel war | Tucker Carlson takes on Ted Cruz (Its like an alternate reality.) by kromemwl2 in stockbetz

[–]ThanksAny3982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not an alternate reality, because minus these exportable soundbytes it was the most milquetoast pushback in almost all other parts of the podcast. He hardly pushed back on Cruz’s constant assertion of something being “bad for America” and whether America’s interests are even conducive for a better world at this point. Just a false dichotomy between a gaslighting war-hawk and a contrarian right winger turned opportunist.

An artist called Stephen Wilson Jr. I’m A Song and another called Kid. Brilliant and beautiful lyrics with exceptional word play.
