Gay porn pays well too but I don't hear a lot of men fighting over that career choice.

Further on that point, perhaps men don't require as much higher education to make a decent living, at least to start. As a woman, I got a degree because it was the only path I saw to be able to earn close to what my brothers were earn

Yes. Quite a few times I’ve had some exciting inside info from my industry and I would love to spill it in my pseudo anonymous online hangouts! But then when I compose something that doesn’t give anything away I realize I’ve said nothing a

I live in an area that had over about 6 weeks with us pm2.5 aqi above 300 almost every day and many days exceeding 400 and it shocks me how many people still don't have filters of any kind and see this kind of DIY fan as excessive and

To be fair, it wasn't just the CDC, but also the WHO, Canadian, UK, European officials, all in the same vote.

I have a way overpriced aerogarden farm and for me it's really just decor along the lines of having an aquarium. It certainly doesn't yield enough of anything to be worth the price. I contemplated something DIY but I didn't

Also I think you have to look at the clusters (in a state) as independent threads growing in parallel. It makes more sense to compare individual state to European countries of similar population.

I had the exact same thought also because of 9/11. I am in British Columbia and I got a vague provincial emergency alert saying there was no tsunami threat. Amazon Prime was also failing at the same time. Facebook was loading but then

I live in British Columbia and for the past 3 summers have had to spend at least all of August indoors with doors and windows sealed shut due to the dangerous levels of particulates in the air. I am already experiencing it.

Climate change is responsible for the increase in temperatures which lead to an increase in lightening. Climate change is also responsible for the wet conditions in the spring creating additional fuel later in the summer.

You might try imaginging what the metro experience is like for women. Your perspective is very self centered and not as reasonable as you think.

I've experienced lonliness on the job but I've come to realize it has more to do with having meaningful work than meaningful relationships. If I'm doing work that is contributing and adding value I will not care at all about

Even worse than gambling--the output isn't random. You can actually affect the result, a lethal combination for gambling behaviors. With slot machines it's at it's worst when the gambler believes there's a system that

If your reputation is that important to your career, you will find a way to control your urges. Either that or men don't belong in leadership because they can't control themselves?

As a high school dropout living in the blue collar world after some rough time as a teen on the street, having left home at 15, I'd long forgotten about the potential I once had in grade school. Years later when I decided to go back t
