I am booked out until at least February. Of course, if he has his frequent plugger card punched we can work something out.

Damn ****ing straight. My next option is ketamine which my insurance only partially covers, and beyond that my best option is implanted neutral stimulator in my spinal column.

I hear you, back injuries and back pain have been all too familiar since I was in my 20’s. Nothing like you’re describing, but long stretches bedridden, and chronic pain wears on anybody who suffers from it. I Hope improvement and reduced pain is in your future.

What is possible for the rest of the civilized world is seemingly just impossible in the U.S.. We can't have nice things because freedom.

I'll take a little less "freedom" for a better society, even if my taxes go up a bit.

P.S. we are no more free than the majority of Europeans, Australians, Canadians, etc..

We could also just lower the military budget by a percent and pay for it.

Or just put the corporate tax rate back to the rate it was at the height of America's golden age, the 1950's, and pay for free medical care for all, free higher education for all, and UBI for everyone, and still see world-leading economic growth instead of billion-dollar stock buy-backs aimed at further enriching the mega-rich.

Doctors reveal how a lack of sex can turn men into killers

Psychiatrists say that sexual frustration can leave someone with feelings of anger and frustration, which can build up over time and prompt a major act - such as a shooting - as a 'release' for the emotions.

Eh, most of us just kill burritos and hamburgers. I killed a massive carne asada burrito just yesterday for lunch.

I view this like video games. Is there a small very tiny subset of the population for whom something like sexual frustration and maybe video game images can become part of the complex and varied tapestry that leads them to commit crimes like this? Sure, I don't doubt it. But no ****ing way it represents some massive movement that will destroy society as we know it or in no way is it big enough to warrant massive changes in society to derail a mass-killer creation pipeline of some kind. I just don't buy it. You know how many sexually repressed teens there are in Utah for ****'s sake? We should be drowning in the blood of all the mass murders in the state if that's the driving factor. Hell I'd argue that probably 90% or more of boys and men between the ages of 14 and 30 would call themselves at least somewhat sexually frustrated, or have endured years of frustration before or between their sexually fulfilling relationships. No way that is a primary driver that we can in any way do anything meaningful to mitigate. And if we did they'd find something else to help them channel their mental illness and rage into violence. Just check out EWU on YouTube and it's surprising how many people commit these crimes who are in relationships or even fathers or have girlfriends. Sorry but this is not the silver bullet. It's one thread in the fabric of some of their lives that might contribute to it. For a very few I'm sure it is the primary driver. But how do you use this info to weed out the 1 from the 10 million who is actually going to act on it? Stupid. Can't be done.

I wreaked absolute carnage on a plate of pakoras, butter chicken, lamb pasanda, rice, and naan. Just brutal.

Butter chicken is my kryptonite. Damn good thing my wife doesn't like Indian food or I'd eat it like daily. I make a great butter chicken of my own in my instant pot, perfected the recipe with my wife out of town. Took some to work and got rave reviews. Then made it for my wife when she got back and she took one bite and said "so, you actually eat this, right?"
