I don’t see the point of this comment. Of course they are relatively far away. But they are also closer than anybody else.

They seem pretty vulnerable to being obsolete if there is any sort of substantial change in the prescription drug market. And there seems to be quite a push to change the prescription drug market. Just look at how convoluted their revenue

Not saying this is true in your case, but hypochondria is much more prevalent than we give due. Myself included. Anxiety plays tricks on the brain causing people to actually experience all kinds of symptoms that would otherwise not exist.

But this doesn’t fit the official doom and gloom narrative. The housing market must be a giant casino like the stock market.

Sounds like you are in some sort of echo chamber where you perceive everyone who isn’t filthy rich as living in poverty.

Not all sunlight exposure works though. It needs to have enough UV-B in it. And that’s dictated by the time of year, the location, and the time of day. In some places, you may only get an hour or so of the right kind of rays.

Have you come across people that take high levels of vitamin d as well as get plenty of sun, but whose levels are still less than 30? And further, this is happening to both a father and a son?

So you all want to turn them back into taxi drivers? Do you remember how crappy and expensive taxi service was? Ride sharing is not a career. It’s sharing a ride to make extra cash. Yes, we are runnning out of actual careers, I get that.

The universe always having always existed makes slightly more sense to me than it just popping out of nowhere. Sure, from the Big Bang onwards the inflation theory seemed to make sense but it didn’t explain how everything could magically e

The stock market and the economy have never really been converged though. Stock prices are based on nothing more than the supply and demand of the stock itself. That supply and demand has nothing to do with how well a company is actually

You can invest for free on nearly every trading platform now. If you have any disposable income to save in a savings account(which I am fully aware is the big IF), there is no reason that money can’t be invested in the market. That’s exac

The stock market is not the economy, that is absolutely true. But why exactly is that made clearer right now? Considering we have been in a pandemic for 5 months now, I would say we are faring pretty well economically. Consumer spending is

This is what I never understood about people that don’t think anthropomorphic climate change was a thing. Like ok, forget the warming of the planet, we still are making our air, water, and soil unhealthy at alarming levels.

It doesn’t “defy laws of light physics”. Our “laws” were just incomplete. Why does science media always have to act like they correctly understand nearly everything and we are just 1 step away from figuring it all out? Is it just because

None of that matters though. The point is this: TikTok is owned by ByteDance. By definition, ByteDance is owned by the CCP. The CCP currently has concentration camps and is starting to act fairly imperialistic and bellicose. They clearly
