In case I am not the only one who had never heard of a city board of supervisors:

Apparently it's not city, it's county, and functions similarly to a county council.

Oh man, I wish he would. That would be hilarious to see. And dangerous for such an out of shape old man.

Japanese houses are also mostly uninsulated and they just use space heaters. More modern homes are starting to use mini splits, which sometimes have heat, but that's kind of just a better space heater.

American homes are insulated.

Can't say I've ever seen a teenager do it, just little kids and full grown adults.

Or possibly getting shot, tazed, or beaten up.

That lion has clearly been sedated.

I, too, wanna be sedated.

It's also eaten in Japan, especially its liver. I've only ever seen monkfish sold in Japanese grocery stores.

Thank you. It is very hard. I spent years learning to identify and find mushrooms! I had just been looking to start cultivating them myself when I went on an extreme elimination diet to try and see what are all these things that must be upsetting my stomach. Mushrooms, which I ate pretty much every day and sometimes more than once, are sadly one of them.

That will not stop me from eating morels and the occasional chanterelle when I find them. Worth it.

There is nothing selfish about not having children. Ask any parent why they wanted children, and the answer is often "I just wanted them", "otherwise, who would take care of me when I'm old?", or "I wanted a little version of myself". All selfish.

Of course, so many people have children accidentally without actively wanting them that I think a lot of reasons are made up after the child has already been birthed.

Quite the opposite. People generally want children for selfish relations.
