I don’t know where I’m going, but that’s never stopped me before.

@EagleTwoRomeo @helios_brah That’s warfarin’s antidote. The mechanism is different. Warfarin is an anticoagulant, aspirin is anti-platelet. Aspirin basically makes your platelets slippery so they don’t stick together. Warfarin stops/slows the clotting mechanism.

@HansAmato I have histamine issues. Decided to take aspirin for my menstrual cramps. One in the morning and one at night. It’s the first ever almost painless period I have ever had. And I’ve always taken pain relievers. Nothing has ever worked like this and it’s always been there.

@CatsDoNotComply @BrandonJourney2 You should check out l-theanine.

@DrRebeccaRyan Obviously itching is one way I know my histamines are getting too big for their britches. But anxiety is the other. If I start getting panicky because of my histamines, I take l-theanine and liposomal vitamin C. It takes the edge off of it.

@JenniferSey @paytonmcnabb_ I can feel my mother’s hypothetical aneurysm if a teacher had said this to me. The nuclear thermal blast from her scorching the entire school with her personality would be seen from space.

@ArtemisConsort Valid. You also have to understand that more money does mean effective money.

@romanhelmetguy Not defending AI, but writing is how I memorize things.

@JebraFaushay To be fair, John Goodman is in his mid seventies and should be expected to be a little loosey goosey.

BOOMER: "I fed my family of four on $30 a week back in 1970."

ME: "That's $230 adjusted for inflation."

BOOMER: "Exactly. You should be able to do the same."

ME: "Groceries for my family of four are $400 a week now."

BOOMER: "You're just buying expensive stuff."

ME: "I'm buying the same basic food. Milk, bread, chicken, vegetables."

BOOMER: "Well wages must be higher too."

ME: "My job pays $50,000. Yours paid $35,000 in 1970. Adjusted that's $270,000."

BOOMER: "That can't be right."

ME: "It is. Your salary grew with inflation. Food prices grew faster."

BOOMER: "You're just complaining."

ME: "You're just not looking at the math."

You didn't have better budgeting skills. You had wages that kept up with the cost of living.

Mine don't.

@alphafox This is probably the face behind 68% of maritime lore.

BOOMER: "Just buy a house. Stop renting and build equity."

ME: "Houses are $450,000."

BOOMER: "So get a mortgage."

ME: "I need a $90,000 down payment."

BOOMER: "I bought my first house with $5,000 down."

ME: "What did your house cost?"

BOOMER: "$60,000."

ME: "So you put down 8% of the price. I need to put down 20%."

BOOMER: "Well your salary should be higher."

ME: "I make $70,000 a year. Banks say I can afford a $280,000 house max."

ME: "Everything in my area costs $400,000+."

BOOMER: "You should move somewhere cheaper."

ME: "All the jobs are here. If I move, I make $35,000 and houses still cost $250,000."

BOOMER: "It's about discipline and sacrifice."

ME: "You bought a house for 3 years of salary. I need 6 years of salary."

ME: "Plus I have $50,000 in student debt you didn't have."

BOOMER: "Well I worked hard."

ME: "So do I. I'm just playing a different game with worse odds."

BOOMER: *silent*

You didn't buy a house because you were smarter. You bought it because it was actually affordable.

@malikaelmas @fw_naetoblaq You didn’t have to announce that you’re a boomer, everyone can tell.

@ClueHeywood The first part is the weird baby voice he does and the second part he’s just screaming.

If you want to understand American optimism…

We celebrate the date that we declared independence, not the date that we achieved it.

It’s definitely been more of a Toby Keith 4th of July than a Lee Greenwood 4th of July.

@CaryKelly11 @bryan_johnson It’s called dosing. Obviously don’t go outside and cook yourself. But 10-20 minutes of direct sunlight in the morning is one of the best things for you. And you’re not going to burn. Don’t go sit outside at 2pm for an hour and let your skin burn.
