As much as I love Reddit for being so specific with its interests, there is one thing I find unbelievably annoying about it

If someone makes a post posing a question regarding a piece of media, like a small bit of trivia, all the top comments aren't an answer to that question. It's references. r/TheSimpsons is especially bad about it, and I know that there are tons of references to be made about the show, but I'm also curious about the question asked! I have to scroll down multiple threads of people yammering on in references (which I do understand, don't get me wrong) just to find a serious discussion about the question!

You'd think the answer to the question would be upvoted to the top but it almost never is smh

A small thought on economics

The other day I happened upon a microenomics textbook at a library sale for $0.25. (The macroenomics was there too so I bargained for $0.40 for the pair) I took macronomics in college and had to self teach microenomic idealogy to pass so I thought it would be interesting to actually learn about.

Im reading the ‘understanding economics and why we learn about it’ part that’s mostly irrelevant to anything other than to convince the authors that they didnt waste their tine writing this book. I found the most interesting thing though. They dabble a bit into economic philosophers and how they shaped the way our government runs now. Names such as John Maynard Keynes, John Stuart Mill and more are dropped. It’s all very boring non sense from my highschool social textbooks when it begins talking about economics for citizenship. They go on about the importance of learning about economics on a basic level to better understand how our government is using our taxes. Things we need to pay attention to. The questions economists, and we, should be/are asking ourselves. Things like, and I quote, “Is the government right in seeking free ® trade with the United States?” and “Should we continue to subsidize farmers and set up more farm-products marketing boards?” and “What can be done to reduce unemployment?” (-Microeconomics Fourth Canadian Edition, Campbell R. McConnell and William Henry Pope)

You know what I realized? These are questions that our government struggles with today. I became curious and checked the front. It was published in 1987. In 30 years our government still couldn’t figure out a decent system even via trial and error? Why is it that the last time anyone had a philosophical break through in economic theory was in the 19th century? Guys, we need a new John Maynard Keynes or whoever. We need someone to think outside the box. Someone to look at the system and say “This makes no fucking sense. Why aren’t we doing this?”

Lets start here, how about this? Instead of looking for a trained workforce abroad why don’t you give tax payers job priority. Or tax them more instead of giving them a free ride. If you bring in a doctor from India and give him a tax free loan to start himself off here so he can practice then why is it that when he makes $150, 000 in a year he doesnt pay more then 15% income tax. But I make $3700 in a year. And entire fucking year. And im getting taxed 30%. Or worse yet, when we do this same practice with UNSKILLED immigrants. I’m a Canadian, but I can’t get any assistance when I got injured and couldn’t work. I’m a Canadian and there aren’t any jobs for me because I can’t legally sign a contract saying I’ll work for less than minimum wage in exchange for room, board and citizenship. Why the fuck is it that we gotta help everyone but the people at home. Lets fuck our dollar so the US won’t throw another whining fit about their economy and how they don’t want to trade with us. I could go on about this bullshit. Point is someone needs to step up. Come up with a good idea, put Trudeau on his knees and get him to suck your cock (put on a strap on if you have to) and fucking fix this mess. And really it starts with people voting Conservative and stopping being fucking morons.

No, you can’t just call me while you’re already driving here from several states over to ask if you can crash at my place tonight. How about a little advance fucking warning.

This is the same person who texted the day before I was going out of town for Labor Day weekend to ask if she could crash at my place for a few days, then ate my food and drank my beer while I was gone, and despite agreeing to take care of my cat, didn’t seem to have cleaned out the litter box for several days when I got back. At least she actually fed the cat...

Antidepressant starts working and my appitite starts returning to normal after months of being screwed up. Then of course I manage to somehow get oral thrush at the back of my mouth and throat that made eating hurt a lot. Plus it's just really gross so my appitite went down again. Such is life.

More personal whining under the cut. Read if you want. Or not. Whatever.

I'm now on day 7 of waiting just to schedule a bra fitting. I can't schedule until they have a prescription from my doctor and obtaining that is now my responsibility for some reason (even though they always handled that in the past). I've been waiting on a response from my doctors for 4 days. Once I have that, I need to schedule the fitting, then get insurance authorization (which is also now my responsibility for some reason). I have to make insurance pay since I need a new breast prosthetic and those fuckers can cost $500 or more. That's on top of the $50-$80 per ugly bra. There's no way I'm paying out of pocket for that.

It's little shit like this that constantly reminds me that I'm different. That I will never be normal again. That cancer will always find a way to fuck with me.

Fuck cancer.

Well. This is the first month in probably like half a year that I have actually had PMS symptoms. And holy hell, it sucks. I haven’t even started yet, but I have been a bitch and a half the last two days and today I have wanted to eat everything in sight. The “drink a glass of water” trick didn’t even work because I chugged like four and I am still STARVING. This is dumb. Do not do this to me while I am trying to lose weight. /endrant
