Abongination posted:I've been learning to kill and dress sheep and chickens recently as its a valuable skill to know and we're aiming at being totally self sufficient. Those water studies linked earlier said that (at least for cows) that's actually the absolute worst way to raise em', water-wise anyway. I guess it's cancelled out though in that it's significantly more of a pain in the rear end on your part so you'll wind up using way less cow product in general. Gorson posted:My parents and their friends used to create hours and hours of drinking time by giving us kids a piece of fishing line, a hook, and some raw bacon to single catch crayfish. The trick was to float above them on an air mattress and lure them out from their hiding spots with the bacon. They would take it and not let go, allowing you to drag them up high enough to scoop with a net. I got really freaking good at it and there was always a competition to see who could get the biggest one but this would be a very difficult and inefficient way to find sustenance when it's much easier to trap them by the hundreds with an old refrigerator or whatever. When I was a kid me and the neighbor kid would just like, go down and grab em' with our bare hands, cuz they lived in the ditch near his house and were easy to catch. Then we would pretend they were pokeymans.

Yeah I mean emptying a crab pot is probably easier, but licenses for those are akin to NY City taxi medallions and a bit hard to come by. But anyone with a regular license can run a thousand feet of trot line. Gods_Butthole posted:That sounds hella fun It really is

Gods_Butthole posted:I hope one day to murder a chicken myself. I've spent my whole life eating meat. Many chickens have been murdered for my nutritional benefit. I feel some kind of obligation to first-hand experience the death that up till now I have only participated in in the abstract. I do not feel that it is justifiable to eat the flesh of animals if I am unable and unwilling to do the deed myself. A few years ago, a friend and I killed, dressed and ate a bird. That event was a big contributor to me going vegan not too long after. I felt ashamed that we took its life for a couple miserable pieces of meat. It's not like we were going hungry, we had plenty of food.

Lmao this seems like the perfect way to build up tolerance to those drugs that make drinking unpleasant as fast as possible Their website is pretty great too: https://lifebac.com/ 30 million people won't seek treatment for their alcoholism, because then they'd have to give up alcohol, can't argue with that. quote:The Disease Model can even be harmful I'm definitely not an alcoholic I just somehow can't stop drinking alcohol it's different shut up. quote:It's not the alcohol... Yep chemical dependence is a myth of the liberal media and when I was going through hell getting off opiates I was just pretending for fun.

So the actual drug they're pushing is baclofenWikipedia posted:Discontinuation of baclofen can be associated with a withdrawal syndrome which resembles benzodiazepine withdrawal and alcohol withdrawal. Great! quote:In his 2008 book, Le Dernier Verre (translated literally as The Last Glass or The End of my Addiction), French-American cardiologist Olivier Ameisen described how he treated his alcoholism with baclofen. Inspired by this book, an anonymous donor gave $750,000 to the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands to initiate a clinical trial of high-dose baclofen, which Ameisen had called for since 2004.[24] The trial concluded, "Neither low nor high doses of baclofen were effective in the treatment of [alcohol dependence]. Adverse events were frequent, although generally mild and transient. Therefore, large-scale prescription of baclofen for the treatment of AD seems premature and should be reconsidered."[25] Oh also it doesn't work. Good luck! e: Oh the lifebac website actually talks about Oliver Ameisen, but not the follow-up study, weird I'm sure they just forgot Shame Boy has issued a correction as of 18:10 on Dec 10, 2020 |

Well, we can't have universal health care, so what if we gamified sobriety? It's hosed up that the best we can do for most alcoholics is essentially mutual aid that's heavily religious and full of creepo dudes.

HashtagGirlboss posted:Oh huh didn't see this coming I’m really surprised they didn’t mention Albertsons. They basically followed what Kroger did when it came to hazard pay and bonuses. This week we got a bonus of $100 for part timers and $200 for full timers for our hard work from May to November. Its laughable compared to what other companies have paid their employees.

Every dollar that American's would otherwise be spending taking their kids to get a lovely burger at Applebee's is going to take-out places and supermarkets, no poo poo they're raking in record profits. They basically absorbed an entire industry. I think one of my friends who works at Whole Foods got a temporary $2 / hour pay raise that expired months ago. They also gave her no paid time off after she had a baby last month and are on the verge of firing her if she doesn't pick up hours again soon

We should be encouraging the development of new recreational drugs to replace the old problematic drugs in our lives. Drugs that make you feel nice and loose and pro-social, but don't leave a hangover or develop dependencies. Maybe if you take too much, you just fall asleep before you can OD. You could also develop mild hallucinogens that give you a trippy visual experience for a few hours, then wears off gently, no harsh comedown. Fun for a party or a concert or a night at home staring at swarms of spiders on the ceiling with the whole family. Save the heavy entheogens for guided therapy sessions.

Slavoj Zizek, "First as Tragedy, Then as Farce posted:Our most elementary experience of subjectivity is that of the "richness of my inner life": this is what I "really am;' in contrast to the symbolic determinations and responsibilities I assume in public life (as father, professor, etc.). The first lesson of psychoanalysis here is that this "richness of inner life" is fundamentally fake: it is a screen, a false distance, whose function is, as it were, to save my appearance, to render palpable (accessible to my imaginary narcissism) my true social-symbolic identity. One of the ways to practise the critique of ideology is therefore to invent strategies for unmasking this hypocrisy of the "inner life" and its "sincere" emotions. The experience we have of our lives from within, the story we tell ourselves about ourselves in order to account for what we are doing, is thus a lie--the truth lies rather outside, in what we do.
