Wow, damn I had no idea. It’s criminal that they’re allowed to price gouge people like that!
I’d understand if it was some frivolous cosmetic thing made from anglerfish caviar or something equally absurd, but this is lifesaving medicine. I wish terrible things on the people who set those prices, that’s pure evil.
Does the US not have generic unbranded drugs?
Generics are literally a fact of life over here (UK) and the fact that Americans are going insane over them is wild to me. The NHS will prescribe generics as standard because they’re cheaper to supply and they’re literally the same drug.
My mother has a whole goody-bag of medication and there’s not a single brand name to be seen. They’ve kept her going for >10 years.
Sun, moon, and something-else-I-can’t-remember signs.
“Weird” feels like such a mild way to describe John Harvey Kellogg.
We need Norwegian ostehøvels. They give perfect cheese slices. Shame they’re so expensive to import.
Oh look, another reason to not use Shitter and also to loathe Musk. I do love adding them to my mental list.
Not surprising, though. Musk has that kind of vibe.
White person (UK) here. Honestly, you’re overestimating a lot of us.
My own mother will just add curry powder, veg, and chicken chunks to a pot of chicken stock and call that curry. It is an abomination. I haven’t eaten it in years and it haunts my nightmares still.
I love raisins in my curries because they actually add depth of flavour but when they’re in something like granola, you just know it’s filler. Also it ruins the texture if it’s in something crunchy because of the sudden squidge and I hate how these little fuckers get stuck in my teeth when they’re dry.
Sorry, I think this post unleashed years of raisin resentment. But yeah I completely agree that people who don’t like them in curries or other savoury dishes are missing out because that slight sweetness is wonderful.
I’d say the American one because as a British person, I haven’t sung ours once in my entire life but Americans seem to sing theirs for everything.
Hope they enjoy getting their faces eaten!

Did you mean to say American for one of those systems? England is part of Great Britain.
On the ground floor, you’re standing on the ground which has been covered by a (hopefully nice) floor.
Eh, I find it easier. If someone says second floor, I know that’s two flights of stairs I need to go up.
Then we would think it’s a three-storey building. Really don’t see the issue with calling the ground level what it is. The ground floor is zero levels above the ground. The first floor is one level above the ground. Think of it like this: how many flights of stairs does it take to get to that floor?
Example: my local hospital lists a ward I visited as being on the second floor, therefore you go up two flights of stairs to get to it.
Yes, a single storey does have a floor. We call it the ground.
With a latte, it’s just normal steamed milk. A cappuccino has foamy steamed milk. Specifically, it has an equal volume of steamed milk and foam taking up space in the cup. You get more actual milk diluting the coffee in a latte, resulting in a milder drink.
We need them in most residential areas honestly. I live by a main road in my town and there’s so many people with these cars in the wee hours of the morning. I hate them.
I think there’s something similar in terms of initial patent rights, but it’s awful that people who need these meds are footing the bill. I realise now that I have been spoiled by the NHS. The idea of charging people for medical care that they need is unthinkable to me. It’s heartbreaking.
