I have read that statistically people tend not to. Don’t know the truth of it. He’ll still be suffering in the meantime.

I think you might not know very much about the pain of third degree burns.

If he makes it, he is going to be infinitely full of regret with the consequences he’ll have to live with.

It’s in the Ukrainian constitution that they do not hold elections while at war. How horrible for Zelensky to follow their constitution.

There are lots of them. They just struggle to make it out of the local sphere and onto the national stage.

Oh man, I would kill to see The Offspring, especially if they were playing some of their real classics.

I’m very happy for you, but where I live, the venues are really, really small. Or huge. Not much in between.

That’s fair.

As a woman, I would probably visit Saudi Arabia before I would visit India. India is literally the only country that a fellow traveler has ever recommended against going to to me.

I can accept that there are good things about Uttar Pradesh which are not reported to the Western world. For example, it looks like a beautiful place.

However, those good things not being reported doesn’t really impact the frequency of such horrible atrocities being committed there.

Some of them are also being eaten by wolves recently. The children, mostly. But that is not as common a problem as women being sexually assaulted is.

What the FUCK is wrong with Uttar Pradesh? Because it is almost always Uttar Pradesh. And more importantly, why isn’t the government doing anything about it?

I remember going to a music festival when I was maybe 18 or 20, and the heat was so bad that I decided to just leave before seeing any of the bands I wanted to see because the ticket prices were low enough that there was no sense of “oh no, what a waste”.

The problem with that is that they are usually in tiny venues, often with no seating (some of us have issues with standing for a few hours straight), and absolutely terrible acoustics.

I went to see a favorite (relatively small) band of mine a couple of years back, but the venue was so tiny and…I guess echoey isn’t quite the word, but it sounded terrible and unclear, and with no seating, such that I couldn’t even make it through the opening act. I was glad to have supported a favorite band financially, but it was pretty damn disappointing. Guess maybe I should get a wheelchair so I have somewhere to sit at events like that.

No band is worth that unless somebody you love has literally risen from the dead.

Yeah, some of us are over 25-30 years old and remember concerts being, like $10 to $20, depending on your age.

I was talking with my dad about this just a few weeks ago. He’s Gen X and could go and see a big name band for 10 bucks. I’m a Millennial and could do the same for 20. Even as a high schooler, I was able to afford to go see a couple of concerts every summer just on an allowance of a few dollars per week.

He just seems like such a genuinely good person. And an interesting one.

They just violated Japan’s airspace a couple days ago. Japan entering their waters is probably their little tit-for-tat “payback”.

"Only we’re allowed to encroach on other countries’ territories!

“Oh, and Russia.”
