For the past few years I've made a conscious effort to not use swear words like "fucking" and "shit" casually. I feel like if they're overused they lose their power, to yourself and to others around you. Everyo

Boy I hope they vet these ads better than they do on Facebook, otherwise my mum and many other marginally-online people are certain to get scammed and hacked within hours of this going live.

Another factor I'd mention is, ironically enough, government social programs. Humans were always social because they needed each other. If you don't depend on your community or your family, you'll be much less inclined to inv

If you're a guest, act like a guest. Anti-Israel protests are by extension a protest against the US foreign policy, so yeah... You protest your host in a violent and disruptive manner, you probably shouldn't have been allowed in t

> Cops are known to be abusive, violent thugs Always, before making generalising statements like this, ask yourself: Would I think it's okay if the word was replaced with another, in this case, say "blacks"? And then you&#

Anytime my (developed and well-educated) country's government tries to build or have built any IT system it ends in disaster. I wish we could have what you have, but at this point I don't trust my government to do anything themsel

If it wasn't for the European Greens fighting against nuclear power for the past 50 years, carbon emissions would be a lot lower today than they are. So much R&D that could have been done, so many CO2-neutral power plants built. Es
