If you like food/eating, consider culinary courses and see if you like it as a discipline (just one example).

I was in a very similar boat for years, and then I realized that at least 50% of the issue wasn’t not having an interest, it was failing to see the massive variety of jobs out there and how some can relate to sources of joy I already appreciate. And I was assuming that if I wanted to follow a passion, I had to be the best at it and ready/excited to do a bunch of unrelated things to get to the top.

Pursuing a passion doesn’t mean starting a business, being the best at something, or achieving a goal you’ve had since 1st grade. It might be realizing that you like going to the beach a lot, and then seeing if town hall is hiring for Parks and Rec groundskeepers. Maybe it turns out you love the community garden plots you end up working on, too.

Last note, it may be that you have to try a few jobs in order to find out what you do and don’t like about each, and therefore what you’re looking for in your ultimate career. This is another good reason to lower the stakes on your choice–it’ll be just as helpful to figure out what you don’t want to do with the first few experiments, and it may leave you with a constellation of job characteristics that point you in a specific direction. You find out you love spreadsheets and finding patterns in data, awesome, they need you anywhere. You find out you hate it and want to work completely offline? There’s a massive shortage of trade workers. All info is good info here, and remember it’s never too late for a pivot. Good luck!

That’s definitely Big Boy with the fro in the front

Suspect wanted to kill Jews, stabbed an unsuspecting Spaniard. Hate to say it, but you really do never expect the Inquisition.

“Betty! Looking great, new shoes?”

How is it any more efficient than a toilet with high and low volume flush options?

Lol thank you, got two new names for the Church of Landlord Day Saints now

What kind of real estate cult now?

It is possible that many soft foods could still cause issues, like small seeds in a smoothie or the skin of a bean getting stuck somewhere and causing issues. I’d follow the common advice in this thread and take some ideas of very soft foods to your doctor and ask about them specifically. Might as well make sure, but if they double down on only those 3 foods being safe, I’d trust em at that point.

Smoothies and beans are top options if you have any flexibility though, so many ways you can make/flavor both.

“One more thing, I almost forgot… My wife tells me my memory is so bad, she’s surprised I remember the route to work, I’ll tell you. But this one loose end just keeps bothering me–how exactly is the US defending democracy by interfering in free, open elections? Anyway I’ll leave you to it, have a lovely night.”

Parenti reminds me of a communist Columbo.

I feel like tech and finance bros turn to the right because bad guys who think they’re good get tired of being told by educated people that they are objectively bad guys. And instead of changing, they end up seeking spaces that will reward them for being bad guys and will allow them to ignore or disparage those offering valid criticism.

They are evidence of God’s contract not to drown every living thing on earth again, what else do you have to know?
