I think back to those dark days when CancerAIDS was the scourge of the commentariat. We didn't know. We just didn't know.

Except that money goes towards flashy projects and equipment, some of it superfluous. It doesn't go towards making soldiers' lives any better during their service or after.

Is the "first" thing making a comeback? Because I thought it had largely been quashed years ago, but I've seen a couple of these in the past month. Why? Why? This never needed to exist in the first place and it shouldn't now.

I still have that ginger beer article on an open tab on my phone. Someday I'll get to it.

Actual oregano looks more potent than the weed pictured.

What? No! I love cats and own one. I was just too quick to point out what I thought was a mistake. Apologies.

I think there were actually two parades last weekend and other stuff around the city. Not sure why it was scheduled that way.

Oxymorons are where the two terms are contradictory. Annoying Cat is just redundant.

I live in a big St. Pats city, but I don't like green beer. So I'm going to stock up on food and podcasts, fortify the apartment and hunker down. We already had our parade last week.

Grieve as long as you need to. When my last major relationship ended, I was completely useless for over a month. Then I made the conscious decision to get out and do things outside of my apartment. See movies or visit street fairs and museums. Everyday. Anything to get my mind off things and be around people taking in…

Can't help but hope for that Apocalypse to show up.

Misspelled "off".

Exodus is a bit propagandistic, though. And the way the Palestinians are written gets uncomfortable. That said, it was a fun read. I was all ready to go off and establish my own country after finishing it.

They get to be in the news. Therefore they're important and not sad, lonely, effed up human beings.

It still exists. Eventually there may be no article, but the space will be there.

True, I should amend my statement. Should, but won't.

They wouldn't give up a feature that regularly gets over a thousand comments for no work on their part.

I know some folks bash the AVC for these Supper Club entries (food isn't pop culture!), but a good article is a good article. Keep 'em up!

Cis-female here: absolutely.

That's the thing: after a point, there's only so much you can do to fix their problems. Beyond that you risk the issues of over-dependence and resentment for "nagging".
