    You make sure to never run out of

    It just means you need a big freezer to keep it all. The way the world is going ever-more silly I think more in terms of what can be preserved in a way that doesn't need electricity. It's easy to fill a freezer with stuff but if the power goes out the whole lot spoils anyway.

    Is it the responsibility of the child

    This is the sort of thing that's great in theory but increasingly difficult to actually do. My parents came from a generation where it was not only financially viable but normal for the father to work and the mother to stay home to raise the kids. One man earning a more-or-less average salary...

    Spam emails

    Usually a few dozen. They seem to go in waves. For weeks I got about a dozen emails every single day offering me cheap generic pharmaceuticals. Then they stopped almost overnight and I started getting emails inviting me to enjoy the delights of young Russian ladies who apparently wanted to meet...

    Is it the responsibility of the child

    It seems to make a lot of sense, to the extent that it's practical. The trouble is these days when it's pretty much required for everyone to work full-time and then some it becomes very difficult to actually care for someone with specific needs. It's one thing to let elderly parents come to...

    The most beautiful place

    So many to choose from. Top contenders would be large chunks of Devon and Cornwall, Assateague Island, the top of Snowdon, the top of Bearfence Mountain in Shenandoah VA. If conditions are just so a good cityscape can be beautiful too, although as I get older I prefer the wilds.

    Closed-captioning on or off

    I assume you mean when the words being spoken are at the bottom of the screen? I'm more familiar with those being called subtitles. If that's the case I never use them. Sometimes I'll watch a movie that features some other language and typically the English is shown. I remember being in a hotel...

    Roe v Wade Overturned

    One other consideration is the availability of contraceptives. I can't comment on Europe but suspect their model is closer to the UK than the US. It's pretty easy in the UK to get contraceptives free of charge. Birth control pills are cheap or free and condoms are cheap with many places giving...

    Could Someone Explain?

    I read an article recently that commented on how the original concept of Pride was just for the G people - gay men. Then lesbians jumped in, then bisexuals and then it all went downhill. Essentially the alphabet people are little more than a totally disparate group of groups with nothing in...

    Roe v Wade Overturned

    I recently read an article about how overturning Roe would mean that it would cost men more. As a man all I could think was that this is how it should be. You get someone pregnant, you take responsibility for your actions. Just like with other actions. Of course if the mother is someone who is...

    Your most expensive online purchase

    I ordered a book called "how to scam people online". It was only $49.95 but hasn't arrived yet.

    Could Someone Explain?

    In a similar vein I find it curious to see the endless push to support businesses owned by this group or that group. Obviously not straight white men, any other group. We have the idea that we should support a business because the owners are black/female (or femme-identifying, whatever that...

    Could Someone Explain?

    ... except that the people who don't believe what we believe are unlikely to care much about this sort of thing.

    Advice for a new driver

    Assume every other driver out there is a moron. If you have a green light and they have a red light assume someone will jump the light, assume people will ignore stop signs and speed limits. Drive accordingly.

    Could Someone Explain?

    I don't quite get the idea that people are so remarkably proud of what is apparently little more than an accident of genetics. But at the same time it's bigoted to be proud of genetics giving you white skin, XY chromosomes or an attraction to members of the opposite sex.

    Roe vs Wade Repercussions

    Further to this, if that thing in the womb can switch between being a useless clump of cells and a human being based on nothing more than the womb owner's wishes, what magically happens at birth to change that? Is birth the "collapsing event" that turns all possible scenarios into a single...

    When you think of America

    I always used to think "land of the free and the home of the brave" but since covid it seems more like "land of the scared and the home of the slave". It seems a lot of freedom has gone away thanks to hideously poor legislation.

    No ketchup allowed

    I don't usually dip them but our local brewpub does a rather fine slightly spiced ranch dressing that works very well.
