This is a good point, when I talk about my suicide attempt I don't feel vulnerable, I feel it comes from a position of strength. Honesty does not have to come from vulnerability, it can come from a position of strength but a commitment

Sorry buddy, throw the politics out, the reality is it's not worth investing your emotions in. Especially if you are in this state. On your girl sorry man pretty shitty to do it the day after your birthday. But the reality is she is go

So for years I was diagnosed as depressed, but I never really felt depressed just tired, really, really tired. After a suicide attempt I decided to just let go and find a therapist who I could really really relate with and let it all hang o

My personal opinion is it started with Polk (He is my personal vote for worst president ever, Wilson is second for me), Manifest Destiny and the idea of expansionism, it ebbed and flowed from there until Wilson but the seeds where set when

It's just as plausible that it was a boys retreat for friends and that is the point.I don't discount powerful people could have been involved, but the reality is it could be a conspiracy either way but the mere mention of conspira

It's a nice story but the problem is it does not fly in China, Russia, or the Middle East. While some of them have age of consent laws the reality is the act is just not viewed in the same light as it is in the US and Europe. So unless

I agree, they started with a confederation and ended up with a republic realizing while a confederation was ideal, it would not survive. Now in saying that, we do have to take into account the times. For example the separation of church and

It depends, pacifist is a catch all term not unlike vegetarian. There are total pacifist who will not utilize violence in any form. Then their are pacifist that believe in personal self defence (and that of family) but not offensive violenc

My question and this truly is a question as I am not well read on UBI concepts and social theories is: So it did not bring about nirvana and human nature is well human nature but did it eliminate suffering to a noticeable degree i.e homeles

It's actually not a good analogy because most mechanics nowadays specialize. You don't have an engine guy do an automatic transmission rebuild and you don't have your local car dealer do a coil-over 4 link suspension upgrade

Seems to me, if a project is successful enough, one could leverage that network to get a job if they needed it. In many companies developers have an outsized influence on which other developers get hired. If I were in this gentlemens shoes

Back in the days before the internet became a distribution platform, there actually used to be software distributors that acted like this, they would publish in hobbyist magazines as well as send out their own catalogs. Some were better tha

You are correct but so is the parent of your post, the key term they used is "generally" and I would say that is a correct observation. General problem libraries tend to not sell. There are specialty markets where one can make mon

I think the point being made is the federal government was originally given a very limited charter, over time that charter has expanded to the point where factions are battling for control of it, because it is now the seat of power. When th

Not sure what you are asking, but my point was both sides are just as willing to extract truth into the realm of conspiracy. Please don't try to construe that as somehow me proclaiming my admiration for Trump. Sure Donald was friends w

The sad part is that is most likely how it would go down, in Florida we see the continual regulations on the recreational fisherman, why commercial allotments do not suffer an equal measure in reduction of catch allowance for that particula

I would say wash it thru Monero and then mix it, from there if I were the illicit type I would try to do offline exchanges with gold bugs who are also crypto enthusiast to get it into hard assets. 1 Billion in gold is actually only about a

IIRC it was an old domain registration in his real name that did him in. He realized it and change it, but the history was still there. Been a while since I read about it, but that seems to stick in my mind as how he ended up being unmasked

Right I had to explain this to someone last time this subject came up. Illegal != immoral, take for example the Jews in Nazi Germany because it's required by the internet to invoke Nazis :) . Anyways, had cryptocurrencies existed when

There is a whole lot to unpack there, as everyone assumes that they are innocent and are the righteous, virtuous, and correct party but the reality is both sides of any argument have flaws, a perfect example is BLM, they pack in a bunch of

OK, fair enough, but that just move the question, why use an article in current discussion that does not reflect the realities as they currently stand? It still implies an agenda that makes the issue look one sided when it is indeed not one

Not to mention the act of genocide is the issue at hand. We keep talking Nazi's but there are people from all walks of life and races that would like to eliminate races unlike them. If they never put those thought into action they are

The problem is you are calling anyone who does not agree with your definitions, a bigot. Each side of radicals has no self reflection on the fact that they too are radicals.
