    It was indoors dawg. If I clogged your toilet I would either pretend it wasn’t me or I’d apologize. She can’t pretend it wasn’t her.

    Finishing up Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain. It's pretty entertaining and ties in with the movie Tony pretty well, even though Tony in the movie came off as a bit too creepy for me.

    "taking a break from politics"
    Dude, there are so many places and ways to escape politics that that I just don't buy it in the discussion in here. I find a lot of ways to do that, and my family would be considered targeted by the current admin. There's music, there's tv, there's movies, there's sports, there's books. You can play sports and make your own art/music, you can read old books, you can listen to old audiobooks, you can watch old tv shows, and I'm sure there are new tv shows, movies, and music that avoid the topic. The fact that it's only a problem to escape politics when it's Ed Sheeran and Gaza to me is nonsense. It says a lot that the music and art that people actually enjoy is political, you want apolitical music go find some lame band to listen to. You want right-wing politics in your movies, go watch some failure right-wing movies because most talented creators have to work with other people and tend to work with blacks, latinos, women, and lgbtq who respect their own rights. You don't like it, enjoy your baloney sandwich with no spice.

    I'm pretty sure the citizens of Massachusetts paid for Robert Kraft's stadium as well. We're paying our billionaires a lot of money to silence us

    I have kids of my own, and when you talk about the mundane apocalyptic stuff you mentioned I hate to think if my kids ever struggled with that.

    It sucks, women are on a clock and the decision should heavily be in their court since so much of it falls on them. I’d say if your wife is asking you then trust your gut, and if you’re leaning pro kid then give it a try. You’ll never be 100% ready and the world really is getting worse and worse, but I try to think that humans have a way of surviving and the best you can so is prepare your kids.
    If you decide no, it sounds like you’re already a great uncle or role model so you can keep on with that.
