Obviously just being angry but keeping cool while saying something like, “I am angry” is fine. I think that the point is that usually anger comes with raised voices, yelling or worse which is not going to work. I don’t know if you have ki

I find singing to be boring. You are either born with the talent or not. It’s nearly impossible to practice your ass off to go from tone deaf to the voice of an angel. On the other hand, you could pick up a guitar be tone deaf, practice

It’s not concerning, or even worth trying to solve the mystery, to you that we can’t identify a fleet of flying drones that are not from our military and that seem to be slightly more advanced than current consumer drones.(hovering silently

It has nothing to do with race. China is bad because of the CCP. And the Chinese people suffer the most because of it. Remember in 1968 when the CCP encouraged the cultural revolution that lead to the death of millions of Chinese at the h

This is why I am never going to China. They were behind the Equifax hack and many other similar breaches. They are actively waging a cyber war against the the US and it’s citizens. They have all of our info so they can piece together who

Nobody wants to stand up to China and it’s going to lead us to a very dark place. I fear we either go to war or we just acquiesce and become similar to China. I really hope we can avoid the whole bloody cultural revolution part. https:&#

The entire stock market is just one big, gamified casino. It’s completely decoupled from the actual performance of any company. I do agree that they should not be letting people that don’t know what they are doing get access to margin tra

All the states around Michigan were locked down too. I’m sure there were a small amount of people crossing but we were effectively closed. We had a pretty strict lock down here and people followed it better than I expected they would. I’m

I find this article a little disingenuous and here is why: Sweden-5420 deaths out of a population of 10 million while no lock down. Michigan-6005 deaths out of a population of 10 million and we have been locked down since mid March. To be c

It is not for no work at all. You would be free to work and earn more money, so why wouldn’t you? It just guarantees a minimum income not a comfortable income. And it would encourage people to do exactly what you want, work less.

The stock market is nothing more than a casino of supply and demand. It is not rational and is based on nothing more than greed and fear. It has absolutely nothing to do with the “economy”.

Maybe it’s because Americans are fat. Especially poor Americans who subsist on fast food and other junk. My guess would be that Indians in poverty are more likely starving than diabetic. Starving has its own health risks obviously, but b

That’s like telling someone that depressed to just realize they are depressed and to stop being depressed. Realizing that you need to quit is not some sort of magick. I think that almost all smokers know that they need to quit. Further th

Never smokers just don’t understand. It’s not that you don’t know that it’s bad for you(duh) or that you don’t want to quit. It is because it really is that hard to quit. For me, suppressing the desire to smoke felt like the worst restles

If the virus replicates in the throat and the nose, I would think we should be gargling with diluted hydrogen peroxide and flushing our sinuses out with strong saline solution.
