My mother is 65 and ran a marathon last month.
I wouldn’t want her to try and do parkour or play football, but someone who exercises can absolutely stay fit well past middle age.

Can confirm. My dad’s went from 115 or whatever the rated mileage was to 60-70 miles within 2 years. It would struggle to go 40 miles if the heater was on.
I don’t know if they make those batteries out of packing peanuts or what, but it killed any possibility of him owning an EV for a long time.
As a service person, this sounds great. You actually tip your barber more than I do.
The only thing I think you didn’t account for is fancier bars with elaborate cocktails, which tbf most people do not frequent. I’d do 15-20% for those, simply because it’s more involved service and more involved drinks.
Not necessarily. You can live outside your means at any income level.
Also, children are fucking expensive.
9-5 is definitely no longer standard, although traffic does get noticeably worse here after 8am.
That being said, what is their justification for 7-5? Unless you’re taking a 2 hour unpaid lunch, that’s mandatory overtime, which most companies aren’t super fond of paying.
Unfortunately, cutting drugs with things to make them either cheaper or stronger is pretty common most places, in fact it’s basically universal here. Some weed dealers have relatively uncontaminated stock, but most don’t.
And good fucking luck if you buy any kind of pills or anything.
I love it. It’s a shame it’s as abusive and shitty as it is, but I love it regardless.
Unfortunately, my body can’t support it. If it could, that’s what I’d be doing with my life.
Not proper cooking to a well temp, but you never really know if proper food safety practices were observed or not.
Yeah, that’s it. I was diagnosed when it was still a very recently discovered condition (well…It still kind of is…). As a result, I have some secondary effects from “novel” treatments my parents tried.
Antiquated terms can and frequently do become more offensive when they refer to a characteristic people consider undesirable. This is true of >!negro!<, >!retard!<, >!cripple(d)!<, as well as several other terms.
You see the term “>!negro!<” used a lot in abolitionist literature, because it was a polite way to refer to a black person at the time. As we all know, that is very much not the case anymore.
Well they said “all”, so more like " the gang causes a massive global financial collapse."
As their edit suggests, this name actually was for Brazil nuts, where they are at least kind of the right color.
This name also dates back to the 18th century, which best I can tell was before that word was considered a slur in those regions, if not everywhere.
Shit, I’ve been this person since I was a teen. My BP drops like a rock in the heat, if I’m out in the summertime, I really can’t stand in place for more than a couple of minutes.
Generally it isn’t an issue because there’s enough seats to go around (and I don’t live somewhere with public transit), but I’ve had one or two less than pleasant conversations when on vacation.
Not all economic problems are a recession. Consumers are facing significant issues right now, but the overall economy is doing well.
Our issue is that all that wealth is mysteriously staying in the hands of large corporations.
Average car price before the pandemic was about $38k. By 2023, it was $49k.
The trend has been ongoing for a long time due to general inflation and a growing preference for SUVs, but it went fucking bananas during the pandemic, and auto manufacturers have taken advantage.
Uhhh isn’t the whole point of a bed that you can put things of whatever height you want in it because there isn’t a roof or anything?
That’s been the case for at least the past couple of decades. The massive price increases have been over the past 4 years.
Sort of. I’m glad we are wasting less in terms of automobile manufacture, but this is caused by price gouging on the part of automakers more than anything.
That means when we all eventually have to buy another car, we’re just going to get fucked.
That would mean you need to enforce the law for whoever built the model. If the original creator has 100TB of cheese pizza, then they should be the one who gets arrested.
Otherwise you’re busting random customers at a pizza shop for possession of the meth the cook smoked before his shift.
I don’t think this is legal basically anywhere. In the US, this would be brandishing or threatening with a deadly weapon.
