    Had it at a fancy French restaurant. I was interested in the fact that they’re essentially boiled in butter and herbs(?) but my brain 100% did not connect the dots as I forked one and bit in. Burned my mouth so fuckin bad I went through 2 glasses of ice water just so I could taste the halibut special I accidentally spent $70 on.



  • So for my 2¢: I’m a massage therapist. I went to school and pay for continuing education and licensing, and that’s not even considering insurance or a lease if you have your own practice. I rightfully should be making quite a bit more than minimum wage. Most places will put up job listings with a number around $45/hr, but they don’t mention that this is calculating with the average tip that’s almost always shorting what you’ll actually make.

    My industry has been a tipped industry for a very long time and the tipping fatigue hurts. We have MORE shit we need to pay for on our own but people who have never gotten a massage see the prompt for a tip and don’t realize that’s been the norm for massage since fuckin EVERYWHERE asks you for a tip.








  • To piggyback on another comment. Massage. I’m a massage therapist who sees clients with disk issues all the time.

    99% of the time it’s because of shortened hip flexors (your psoas attached to your bottom vertebrae and as it shortens, is too tight to let your spine stretch which then just crushes your disks) due to both extended time in a seated position as well as a weak core. Stretch, get a massage, find a PT to help with chronic back pain. Start doing crunches before bed.

    Also drink more water. Only kinda related but basically everyone should be drinking more water.









  • We do, supreme judicial authority is given to the SC in article 3 of the Constitution. This person you’re replying to isn’t being very clear that the explicit power to overturn laws was established in Marbury v Madison.

    This power is called Judicial Review and it was understood to be the way the SC is supposed to work. A Federalist power grab by John Adams forced the SC to be explicit and say “we can overturn laws because that’s the only way the SC is coequal to the other branches”.

    In other words, Judicial Review was always an IMPLIED POWER of the court, but a court case made them spell it out.
