a lot of people who aren't actually terminally ill get 'recommended' death with dignity. whatever you want to call it. there was a woman who asked for a chairlift to be installed in her house and they sent her a brochure for this, since living seemed to be so hard for her. i respect you a lot, and i relate to you, especially here -- burnt toast smell means stroke, hehe -- but i don't trust death w dignity.

by the way, though; i'm not trying to be an asshole. i wouldn't have put the effort in to give you a critique if i didn't appreciate how earnest this is, and i do. i really connected with this. thank you for writing it

@benny1548132 God and that’s exactly how to NOT treat DwD. It needs the same level of compassion as pulling someone from life support. It’s the very *last* option after all treatment has been exhausted. It is only for physicians to recommend. Not random people with brochures. Physicians who know the patient, their condition, and when they’re near the end of life.

While this is awful and not the intent of DwD, it’s also not a representation of DwD as a whole. This is a case of shitty humans not using their brains.
@benny1548132 holy shit, that's awful. not at all appropriate behavior towards someone looking for mobility assistance.

@benny1548132 Compassion and understanding is vital in any discussion. It’s part of being a decent human. I fully agree with you that it was a complete overstep for the chairlift people to have done that. I personally find what they did to be downright disgusting!!! I woulda beat their asses!!!

my shitty abusive ex loved car shows like Top Gear and YT channels like Regular Car Reviews (and uhhhh i forget the channel name but that guy who majorly trolled/pissed Tesla off by successfully converting one to an internal combustion engine lol) and i guess if The Asshole did one good thing ever, it was that i learned a lot about cars via osmosis.

bell peppers are like even crunchier lettuce, they're just water but solid in a non-ice way

@neopetgameboy Yes! Even the red ones. Cooked or not! I like the dish I mentioned bc it brings out the sweetness somehow?

they always taste sort of bitter (like dirt?) to me. the only way around it is to camouflage it with a sauce and other ingredients to hide the flavor
