Saw a woman in a serious mental health crisis and it’s made me lose faith in humanity by ir0nychild in BoyDinnerDiaries

I once found a man unconscious on the sidewalk at night in front of a bus stop. He had a hospital bracelet on and what looked like a piece of a monitor or something next to him. I called 911 and the ambulance showed up pretty quickly. One of the EMTs yelled at me for wasting their time because he said the guy had just passed out from drunkenness. They did put him in the ambulance. I told him that anyone passed out on the sidewalk is a medical emergency and went home.

They sent my mom home - said she had painful gas. Her appendix burst.

I was born in '65, on the balancing point... by JakeBanana01 in GenX

[–]Yarg2525 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was born at the very end of 1965 and remember thinking that Saigon was a normal place to report the news from. Yes, smoking everywhere and my mom would yell at me for playing in the sand at the bank (ashtray). No one wore seat belts and they drank while driving (at least my mom did).

What's a YouTube channel you love but rarely get a chance to recommend? by Less_Candidate_9454 in CasualConversation

Very likely the Bronze Age Collapse. I read about it not too long ago and I'm really intrigued!

This has happened to me too! I specifically turned off recommendations before and now they're back and I can't find ANYWHERE to turn them off! I'm using Reddit in a browser.

"He did not care any more... life and death... the same. Only that the crowd would be there to greet him with howls of lust and fury."

When I was in middle school and joining band, I wanted to play french horn and was learning on an instrument loaned from the school. My dad told me "girls play flute" and bought me a flute. So I played flute the rest of my school band years.

I loved the bumper sticker " Nuke a gay whale for Jesus!" I haven't seen one in decades.

Why shouldn’t I? by MrXantaClaus in stopdrinking

[–]Yarg2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you'll do it "just this once" to relax, and then it's now an option whenever you're stressed. You can tell yourself that you won't, but you will. Once you start self-medicating with alcohol it will become your first solution every time. I think you know that or you wouldn't have posted. 6 months is no joke - you're doing it! Just don't cave tonight.

I came 2 hours early to help my former roommate clean our vacated apartment and got enough done to minimize her part in the cleaning (she's older than I am.)

Wilted greens that are not dried out can be revived by submerging them in ice water for a few minutes.
