I’ve been teaching myself Spanish over the last two years, primarily through Duolingo but increasingly been branching out into other stuff like Netflix and newspapers. Also in the process of making a bilingual blog to practice my writing sk

I agree with some of your points but not all of it. Healthy food can be affordable if you know what to buy and how to cook it. But I disagree that it is cheaper than junk food and it is certainly less convenient to cook and purchase. In the

No not at all. Rich people who benefit from the system can also be victim to it in other ways. Not all managers are sociopaths and I’m sure a lot of them feel shit about some of the things they have to do in order to maintain their jobs. An

I've got a black and white brother laser printer that I've had for years now and it's awesome. I would never buy an inkjet printer for home use again. If I want photos, I'll get them printed at a photoshop.
