Yes. I follow the same small sub here for my favorite sports team, but there are simply not enough people to have many. posts and great discussions. So I still read the Reddit sub. But I don’t have their app, so it is only from my gaming pc, which severely limits my time there.


I agree. Unless it is too high or too long, let it work it’s magic. You will be miserable, but likely get well faster. Take something for the congestion, drink plenty of fluid, and go to bed and sleep or lay on the couch and watch movies.


When it comes to person to person messaging, everyone uses what everyone else uses.



There is definitely statistical proof of this. But I would state it as a percentage of income. I have been to lavish weddings that were not an economic inconvenience for the couple.


Reading comments here to find a better way, but we just walk or take a train or subway and get off and walk and see what we find. Talking to locals helps too, as they will tell us about places they are proud of and think we should see. We have stumbled on really cool places most tourist do not find or ended up riding paddle boats in a park. We do research ahead of time and have a list of places we do not want to miss.

This does not always work. Some places are too big and lack public transportation. We have had to return to a train station a get a cab to a local attraction (Dover, UK).


True. But I’m just glad there are enough people to have conversations. Hopefully some of the smaller subs can exist soon.





California has progressive taxes. That means the wealthy pay a higher tax rate than the middle class. The wealthy have gotten taxes raised on the middle class and lowered on the wealthy in most red states. So they continue to pay for a disinformation campaign that rails on California taxes.

But CA continues to carry the US in GDP. It has a tropical weather, that allows outdoor activities nearly year round, not found anywhere else in the US. It also has a lot of support for lower and middle class (this shows up in places like infant mortality rates).

But like almost everywhere else in the world, except countries like Japan and China that have addressed planning at a federal level, they have not built houses near fast enough to keep up with demand. So the cost of living is high (They have changed laws recently to try to partially address it). But if you make enough to live there it is a wonderful place to live.


I don’t have a favorite, use the best tool for the job.




I am not sure if this is a joke, but many people take something that makes them sleepy. I can’t do it.


Exactly this. I have eaten cold ravioli in Yellowstone when we drove to the opposite end of the park.

We also have the tubes that keep a loaf of bread from getting crushed. Add a can of chicken and mayo packets for a rough but edible chicken salad sandwich.

Also sometimes carry the peanut butter and honey as both are shelf stable. Can even buy premixed.


Pickled or boiled eggs. I buy the 2 packs of already boiled eggs so there is never a partially opened container in my cooler.

Also carry quarts of eggs in cooler and cook all at once. Good with a bag of frozen hash browns. But this takes a way to cook (we carry Coleman style stove).


I have a friend that makes his own before trips. He has it down to x pounds of fresh meat per person per day. He just buys meat, adds seasoning, and dries/cooks it in his oven. There is surely a youtube on how to do it.
