I’m 31. I don't want to be fun. I just want to cook a good meal for my guests.

I’m literally fighting permanent nerve damage but ok. Cool.

I realize that this isn’t what you’re saying, but I had no desire to undermine the wealth loss of Cubans because of Castro. It was a significant hurt. But I can’t stand the tunnel vision and myopia that I often see from American sources.

important =/= good

You’re smart, and I like you.

Perhaps you should talk to some people who have lived through the capitalist paradise that Pinochet made of Chile. Neither side in the cold war came away without blood on their hands. The US made Central America and South America a fascist paradise. What I did learn is that people fled Cuba fled to preserve the wealth…

LOL, I know people who fled Chile because of Pinochet. I know people who fled Cuba because of Castro. Judging by your posts, I hope your life gets better.

So your answer is “Yes, my experience is universal” then? You would have loved living under Pinochets capitalist democracy.

Pretty sure that what you lived under was communist in name only. Most poly-sci types call it state fascism.

Agreed.

70 lbs in 4 months? There’s no way that’s healthy.

Ooh, for four Tom Hardy’s you get the next one half off! If you’re okay with a few of the defective ones...

you should check out some of her backyard sessions. they’re great

Agreed. It is one of the two movies I have downloaded to my tablet to watch during flights. I have watched this movie countless times. Strangely, the person sitting next to me always tries to watch, too. Regardless of their age, they want me to turn my tablet so they can see it and they giggle uncontrollably. I will…

Some of you probably know of my goat obsession, it’s so bad I have one tattooed on my wrist, seriously. So last summer a house on my street sold and out in front of this house was a big grassy, overgrown put area. We drove by one day and the area was fenced off and there were FIVE GOATS in there. I screamed and made…
