I wish this wasn't true (but know it is from experience), because those of us who are posting job requirements that actually correspond to what we're looking for are left with nonsense applications.

The hate on antidepressants is not because they're not effective, but rather that they're abused by psychiatrists. Ideally, a professional will prescribe them as a necessary helper to becoming (more) mentally healthy whilst tackli

I was hopeful they'd get there this time, but that's it, this one's over. 12,000 killed, more to be executed. Then you have Trump saying they're ready to make a deal. A deal with the USA is the nail in the coffin.

Non-USA citizen here. What's going on? I just woke up to this madness, and have heard nothing about it prior to today. Has this come as a surprise to everyone in the USA too, or were there murmurings leading up to it? What was the reas
