This video about vodka in Russia is very eye opening. Keep the people drunk so they don’t rise up, the father is drunk and violent, raise boys that are drunk and violent continuing the cycle of violent drunkenness.
During my grade six year (1992) I noticed when we would take turns reading pages from our english class novel that nearly every person was unable to comprehend, pronounce and read clearly.
I would finish the books in a day and have to go slowly through it with the class for the next two weeks watching people that were obviously barely literate reading the same books.
Funny enough for the right wingers that don’t like the gun control in California, it was first brought in because Reagan was fearful of the Black Panthers who were openly carrying fully legal assault rifles and those white politicians couldn’t handle that second amendment applying to black gun owners.
This one is very true. I lost my sister to brain cancer in August of last year. I think about her every day but some days the sadness hits harder than other days. She touched a lot of people’s lives by teaching music to kids that would never be able to afford lessons, she played all around Europe and in North America so I know she made a lot of people happy but sometimes I just want my sister to be here still.

Tiger is the biggest brand, smaller companies are also likely to be cheaper.
A water heater/dispenser, you can find some smaller capacity ones for under 100. I have one that was more than 100 but it’s because I love it so much that I wanted a 5 liter one. I can make tea in an instant and always have plenty of near boiling water. They’re extremely power efficient so they don’t cost much too run.
OP, read this person’s post and realize they are a few months away from being totally fucked and yet are the lucky one.
They work two jobs, and they are the lucky one.
In countries with actual social safety nets people can afford to work one job, they take vacations, they don’t have to struggle to afford medical care, it is covered because it is a human right.
Those countries aren’t suffering because they are completely capitalistic, companies in these countries are prospering and yet they help their population prosper as well.
The Y peelers or as they were called in the kitchen I worked in “the lady’s shaver” are great because you can cut on the back and forward motion.
Carrots, potatoes, cucumber all peeled superfast by peeling back and forth instead of only one direction.
