   I know a couple in Missouri who lost 5 family members between his and her side. All obese. I believe 4 of them died after the vaccine was available, but they refused to take it.

   I reduced my manuscript by 2,000 words with Grammarly. At 500 pages, anything I could do to trim it down is a big plus.

   Active is generally more concise and engages the reader more. Of course there are exceptions, like everything. Internet posts have a very different style standard than a book.

   I didn't start programming until I was 29 and it's been a great career. So 37 can't be that far off. If you have aptitude for it, something will probably work out.

   Yeah the main great insight I got out of doing that stuff was to see reality from a different perspective for a while. Kind of like travelling and realizing that things you take for granted aren't the same in every culture. But I never

    I keep hoping my friend gets to the point where you are someday. Another thing not working in our favor is she's the most stubborn person I know. She thinks she can beat this thing with her mind and no help from anyone.

    Yeah, in this case it seems to be menopause + losing her job and having all the free time and nothing to focus on plus who knows what other stressors. I think something bad happened with her Phish friends. The really tough part for me is sh

    This isn't one of those cases. She had a career and tons of friends and now she's shunned everything. Her family lives in another state and had zero influence on her life. But we can't do anything because she still knows how

    100% agree with this. It's not rational in any way. From the period of time when she was still talking to us at least, there's no reasoning with it.

    Yes, I agree with that. I'm just guessing because she's super paranoid of doctors. One of the downsides of being in and around the wellness community for decades. I don't know if she's seen The Game, but I do know that s

    I've lost one of my best friends to what I think is schizophrenia. We don't know because she's cut off all contact with friends and family and refuses to see a doctor. It's definitely psychosis. She thinks she's in
