I was expecting this comment. Charities send mail because it helps them raise money, and it's one place that direct mail still works, and it works well. You can call the org and have them take you off their mailing list. I would just a

Don't donate through Facebook. Their processes are pretty unfriendly to the charity receiving the money. They float the money for an unspecified amount of time, which hurts charities' cash flow. They provide less donor data, so ch

You vastly overestimate the security of safes. It might take a while and you might kill a few drill bits in the process, but you could definitely drill through most safes, especially in home installations. As far as relockers go, you'v

First step would be banning political ads on social media platforms. And then everywhere else. The problem with your initial argument is that paid political ads give even more power to the gatekeepers. It also overlooked the issue that more

It's not a race to the bottom. It's a correction. Why should your health care be determined by your employer? It's a ludicrous system that should have died decades ago.
