Ah, how I wish Christian barbarians didn't convert Europe and our societies evolved from Pagans. How different would the world be.

Thank you! And I wish all religious and spiritual people a nice evening as well.
Unless you're a fundamentalist who likes to shove their beliefs down everyone's throat and wants politics to conform to your beliefs even when it means taking away other people's rights. Then fuck you.

I feel the same. I'm outwardly really nice and polite, probably excessively so haha, but sometimes I just have real asshole thoughts. Y'know, when someone is acting like an asshole or idiot I just judge them so hard. Same with the happiness part, it's not that everyone else is perfectly happy they just don't bother strangers about their problems.

Yeah, fair enough. I try to be healthy but I'm not a fan of just chowing down on an apple or eating a bowl of berries, and a lot of people I know feel the same, they just don't think about the whole 5-a-day thing. I usually just trick my brain into wanting to eat lots of veggies and fruit by making something out of them and substituting unhealthy versions. Like making dehydrated veggie chips instead of fried potato chips, or having a fruity yogurt drink instead of a sugary milkshake, etc.

If there's a bug that's as delicious as shrimp, I might as well start eating bugs.

Mr Fredricksen really reminds me of Sir Nicholas Winton, a British hero who saved hundreds of Czechoslovak Jewish kids from certain death by sending them to Britain to be adopted by British families, right before the war. He died when he was 106 years old, an absolute legend.

A noble idea. Still, sometimes you have to talk to people you don't consider very important. Coworkers, classmates etc.

But how do you know if it's important or not if you didn't hear what they said?

Oh hey the website stopped reminding me about new replies. So that's great.
Anyway what I wanted to suggest to Adam is that the system can work if implemented well. If it doesn't work in Canada but works in all these European countries, maybe there's something Canada is doing wrong and not necessarily the fault of the system itself.
But hey if you don't want that, that's your choice.

Idk man, seems like kind of a bootlicky way of saying "What?"
Just kidding but really, I usually apologize for my shit hearing and ask them to repeat. The whole "valuing their input"... idk I guess it depends on the context but it just rubs me the wrong way. But hey if it works for you, that's pretty cool.

Funny caption aside, this is actually Messi the Puma, a domesticated cougar rescued/adopted by a Russian couple. They have a bunch of videos on their yt channel, and yes the cougar is basically a big cuddly playful kitty, but I think the titles and descriptions are all in Russian.

I agree with bluelagoon's original assertion. Entertainment is great for unwinding but it's important not to let it consume your life. Especially nowadays when we're surrounded by distractions at every step. Imo more meaningful activities, especially creative endeavors or any self-improvement/learning, feel more fulfilling in the long run because you can track the progress over time. I've been there, lost a few months of my life just wandering around the apartment, playing video games and watching TV or YouTube, but tbh I was heavily burnt out/depressed at the time so that might influence my perception. You do you, don't let a rando like me tell you how to live your life. I'm just saying that making entertainment the *most important thing* will start feeling really empty after a while.

@adam44 Oh also, for the long waiting times argument, over here if you need a prescription drug and can't make it to the doctor's office because your schedules don't line up or you're in quarantine or whichever reason, you can just call the office and if the nurse/doctor knows you take that drug and aren't bullshitting, they'll send you a digital prescription with a QR code by text message. So that's pretty neat.

@adam44 It's not "proven" by Canada. Canada is one example out of many. Over here in Europe, things work a lot better than you describe. In my country we have a health insurance system that is paid for either by your employer or by the state if you're a kid/student/unemployed. And the insurance companies are set up so that they don't try to scam you every time, they have to pay unless it's an elective procedure like plastic surgery. Waiting times exist, but the longest I've ever waited was three months for a totally non threatening thing, and it was only this long because the office had to temporarily close because of covid (for the record I went to an allergologist checkup to find out if I'm allergic to pets). For usual checkups or procedures it's like two weeks tops. And in an emergency, zero waiting time. In such systems, healthcare is distributed on the basis of need. In the US, it's distributed based on the size of your wallet. The former makes a lot more sense to me.

PS sorry for the semicolons. The website kept insisting there's a link in the comment and wouldn't let me post it otherwise.
Maybe not though. But I just feel like you can get away with a lot of silly looks in anime.
