Physical activity doesn't make me feel good. At best running on a treadmill for around 30mins gives me energy that feels good physically but doesn't really translate to mentally. I've tried intense hikes and other activities

A newspaper is not a single entity. In its life it will have hundreds or thousands of employees with a range from good to bad. You can claim that there's a management structure that should know what's going on but they put trust i

What if you can't get extra help, what if that's not enough? A child doesn't have that much control over their lives, who knows what is going on at home. Maybe class is all they have. You're right about my interpretation

"We should be assessing schools on how many kids get As" Then based on your logic schools would just pad grades. Also the rest of your comment is a pile of right wing garbage

You are only taking into account one factor. Is the money being spent well? Do you need more money because of external situations that may affect a child's learning? For example in a poor area with more crime a child may need after sch

Similar experience here. The sweetness of regular coke bothers me. Diet coke is more tart and sweet. I also love Diet Redbull for the taste however it still has a small number of calories and carbs so they make Redbull Zero which I can&#x27

Most soda (not energy drinks) has very little caffeine. 12oz Diet coke has 42mg, black tea is 50mg, coffee varies but I see at least 100mg. Of course people do seem to drink it mass quantities.

The reason you block ads is selfish, the environment savings (I'd like to see data on that) are incidental. Not every change we need to make will benefit people. More often they will require more work, more resources, or less enjoyment

Second reply here because I finally understood your comment and what you meant. I suggested selective care based on cost and quality of life. That's the logical way to do it even if you think it's immoral. You believe non-citizens
