This is on par with the trend of biohacking ... from ozempic, ADHD meds, transgender hormone therapies, to cheating hangovers ... You can't cheat nature, for long at least.

The US could put a major dent in the drug trade if it wanted to. US sends billions to Ukraine, NATO, Israel, etc, for their defense and security. There is no will. Inbound drugs and illegal labor is good for business.

I use to be pretty libertarian in my views on sugary drink and fast food taxes ... but at this point, its a major blight on society and people truly can't help themselves. My spouse works in healthcare and often is involved in caring f

Colleges have a literal vested interest in keeping kids stupid about loans and debt. There should be a million places you have to sign, with big red disclaimers about the responsibility you're about to undertake. Who else is to blame?

If you're accruing massive debt attending college, you're doing it wrong. Community colleges and state schools exist. You can work part-time during school too. Its like buying anything - there's a spectrum of cost. You don&#x

Discord attracts a weirdo community of young people into anime and furry stuff .. Slack, whilst not my favorite, is way more professional and enterprise. Don't understand the developer evangelist stuff moving to Discord. Maybe if you w
