I think we need to work on removing the stigma around general therapy. I have not personally seen a therapist, but of those I know who have, they almost always talk of it being a positive experience. In some cases, they have even advocate

The difficulty lies in having to be instantly available, fully aware, and alert enough to pick up driving at a moment's notice. Basically, you have to be mentally "driving" already, by which point why bother having a self-dr

Recording is a step, however that only addresses a small part of the issue: proof of wrongdoing. Even in clear-cut cases with recordings, such as the Eric Garner incident, it does not seem to lead to real justice. Every other day I'm

I think it's time we recognized that we are essentially second class citizens, after police. They are consistently able to commit crimes without being prosecuted. They can use their position and influence to target and harass their pe

You're right, it's no longer relevant. Just like Commodore 64, Apple IIe, the original PlayStation, NES, XBox, and a slew of other platforms made obsolete by something called "progress".
