comes along bort posted:The Cherokee Nation were also the largest slaveholders among the Native tribes, though that's probably incidental to their present-day political leanings. I suspect it is because New Public Management is/was kind of a crock of poo poo. Attitudes towards government as well (which is what spawned the movement in the first place) but the basic NPM philosophy is poison.

If I'm posting in this thread at the same time, it's perfectly normal social drinking, right? It's only alcoholism if you're drinking alone.

Jagchosis posted:I'm honestly amazed that hasn't been knocked down and replaced by a McDonald's or something similar. There is one on third street. This is on 8th. If memory serves that's a 20 minute walk for a fatty like me.  The buildings behind it are former dorms for Indiana State University Students, which eventually became the College of Education and Tech (from left to right). Last I heard, They are planned for demolition since the college's moved to much better facilities on campus and the buildings are going to poo poo. I worry though that the house will be targeted by an asshat who thinks the land could be to better use or damaged inadvertently during the demolition.

Also I don't add lime juice to mine but I might juice this lime tomorrow for one...not sure it needs it though. Jagchosis posted:US Politics Thread for June: E/N, but sadder and with more alcohol abuse I'm rather optimistic but that's probably because I teach ethics and tell young, impressionable college students all kinds of things about America that shock them and hopefully make them think about how the world actually is and how to change it so that it's more in line with their actual moral values. It's me, I'm the liberal college instructor they warned you about.

Seriously people suicide is a terrible thing, besides if everyone who can recognize that everything is poo poo kills themselves it is never not going to be poo poo. Stop focusing on depressing political stuff if you feel like that, and talk to someone who knows how to help better than I do (loving do it).

If there so many unhappy people in this thread, "prescribing" drinking is extremely irresponsible. The political issues are not intractable, and the environmental ones aren't going to become severely threatening for a while yet. There is still so much time for things to get better.

What? It is! That sort of talk risks affecting people in a very destructive manner. I'm not saying that any of you, personally, are going to make people abuse alcohol, but singular affirmations like these can make some contribution. There's a reason people are going out of their way to tell the guy who was talking about killing himself that he should get help.
