  • No, for most people there is a low point in their midlife somewhere, then progressively happier once past that.

    I’ve never been as unhappy as an adult, as I was when a child. My least happy adult time was my 30s, and from there it’s been all upward. I’m sure once I am old old there will be health shit to worry about, but for now it’s easier to be happy than it was before, and I have seen research showing that is typical.



  • Yes, we have community radio here, and I listen & also contribute a little $ each month.

    ETA: there used to be one good commercial station too, alternative rock, but they got bought out by a bigger conglomerate and now are a Spanish station, and unfortunately not a Spanish alternative station, that would be awesome but no, just a pop station, a clone of the others we already had!





  • I think I’m too old but my bi kids don’t care and the trans (boy now) one has a girlfriend and the mom wouldn’t let her stay over UNTIL she found out that the boyfriend was trans. Now she is allowed to stay over. I found that interesting.

    Brave new world.

    For me, non-binary partner would have to be both a male bodied person and one who enjoyed using their OEM equipment. As I am not bi. But beyond that - if they didn’t feel male or female, not sure I would care. It hasn’t come up so not sure.


  • I just mean I know logically they aren’t harmful but my mind cannot. I’m not scared of spiders or lizards or snakes but those overgrown roaches strike absolute terror into my heart since I was little. I am so sorry you experienced that. I’ve had them fly at me.

    So few of them around now, and my logical & rational fear is that is a bad sign for the world. But it has been amazing to be able to work in the yard without the constant fear of picking up a brick or stone, they used to come out from under every single upturned stone.
