I am 52 years old. I have read a lot of stuff over the years on a wide variety of subjects, from research into women's issues to social psychology to negotiation books. I also did a bunch of therapy in my teens and twenties to sort out

I imagine you would find it weird if you mentioned it in passing while commenting on a different topic and there was some pile on of people insisting you owed them more information about every face painting incident in your entire life beca

It might help to make this about feminism, if she is into that sort of thing. I am a woman. I was a homemaker for a lot of years. Getting a public life has been a difficult experience. In spite of spending most of my life around the militar

My allergies are not really all that pertinent to the point I am making other than to emphasize that I have no plans to consume marijuana myself, so my position has no ulterior motive wrt me wanting access to marijuana personally. So I have

This is potentially a great idea. It doesn't necessarily have to be a github feature. It could be a third party platform, kind of a Patreon or Kickstarter for open source bugs. But I think the platform would need to be scalable in some

I am allergic to marijuana, but I fully support the legalization of medical marijuana. I was on steroids for my condition. Steroids are really hard on the body. My first two attempts to quit landed me back on additional medication. One invo

Hoagies Gifted Page used to keep lists of good books for bright kids. I assume they still do. I don't spend a lot of time there anymore for various reasons, including its tendency to frame giftedness as "Whoa is me. I am so smart,
