Some of the temp control stats start to look sketchy, but relatively low risk foods should be fine (such as ready to eat meals heated only for quality). French press coffee and instant drinks (cocoa, tea, etc) are handy too.

Frozen vegetables can be reheated w an electric kettle, as long as you clean it out thoroughly. Anything fully cooked that you're basically heating like dumplings can too. Canned pasta can be reheated by double boiling in water from an electric kettle. Actually, a lot can be double boiled.

And I think, just like you're saying, a lack of a cohesive and supportive friend group (friends focused more on self-sufficiency and independence) has made it more difficult to establish healthy self-talk. Even trying to make friends now, it's like I speak a different dialect sometimes

No, I agree. I "had artistic talent" but made friends who preferred computers, culinary, or science as interests. It was difficult to find encouragement (a lot of "but I can just pay $15 for something professional"), and I think that's a big reason I never had confidence to make art.

8/ The real issue isn’t processed vs. unprocessed, but that healthy, minimally processed food needs to be more affordable, accessible, and practical for people with limited time or money. In short, we need to improve America’s food chain.

Probably the Sims 3, between the loading time, recovering from crashes, and how little I got out of the game

I love the awkward, filthy Burned-out Linecook birds.
But "majesty" is far from the first 100 words I would use to describe the bald eagle, or the various situations I've seen them in.

Inventor/mad scientist/goblincore mechanic, well-meaning but always followed by chaos+destruction. Friendly and a little goofy, hot mess express.

Aaaaaa I'm less than 20 eps before gear5 aaaaaaaaa

That's fair, being disabled and developing ever-more disabilities does suck. It would suck a lot less of those without disabilities would be a little kimder and considerate that we are not all the same - disability comes for us all sooner or later.

I wonder how many of today polled were under 30... versus what % of those polled were over 50...
And how, exactly, you know that these people were feeling discontent due to chronic pain when they answered. It's an impressive feat of remote telepathy, if you did read their minds. Every single one.

Do you have any evidence for this? Is it solely based upon the speculation that because you are less content with your life after 50 years, that everyone grows increasingly restless, discontent, and unhappy over time? How does this speculation correlate (or not) to the polling sample above?

Do you have evidence for this? It sounds like spitballing.
Indexes like the World Happiness Report have been around quite a while, and do tell a tale in statistics, as well as social psychology and sociology: www.worldhappiness.report

We have this thing, called the World Happiness Report, that accounts for such bias, and includes analysis of present conditions, including the way xenophobia continues to undermine happiness in both Europe and North America: www.worldhappiness.report
