I'm stealing this.

Was thinking about this while I was at work today. I graduated in March with my masters in Econ Development and nonprofit management. I wasn't able to land a gig and my saving was running out so I took a temp job at a local museum here in San Diego to keep me afloat. While I'm working at the...

You're probably thinking of VX - - - Updated - - - Yeah, I don't really get that either. The response has been ​slow

I'm not sure where I'm going with this, exactly... I read something once, after I finished my undergrad, that is so simple, true, and profound, but is lost on so many people. It's basically "those that can anticipate outcomes the best can take the largest surplus, and where there is a mismatch...

I sometimes find shocking how little personal responsibly some people take in their lives and future. I did something I have never done before, and would never typically do except for some kind of recent extreme circumstances. I started talking about with a woman friend about her weight as it...

That's kind of an interesting point and I was thinking about that exact point on the drive home tonight. There are circumstances, albeit rare, where the disease, or its variants, spread via airborne transmission. So far in these rare circumstances the virus has spread inter-species and not...

I totally get it man. I take some pretty serious stuff for my anxiety issues. I actually take a pretty big dose of the atypical anti-psychotic Risperdal (risperidone) at night to help me go to sleep and to slow down brain activity to help prevent panic attacks. Out of the 3 times I tried...

I've tried it 3 times, but was hesitant to get into it for a couple of reasons; it doesn't do much for me and I started applying for jobs that require a security clearance. Just didn't seem worth it.

I was thinking about this more tonight, and wanted to give a thoughtful response. You are absolutely right to accuse me of being evasive, because like I see things as being relative and subjective. Even what we consider facts I would consider relative and dependent upon perspective. I was...

I really appreciate you engaging me and the talk. It's amazing that you started out at 11 years old. That's truly remarkable. I feel like the perspectives you have and experiences you have gone through are probably incredibly unique. You could probably right a book on your experience(s) and...

Hey Presser, have you read Brian Green? My background is in economics and political science, but I like to read about physics and quantum mechanics. I found that Green's books are super easy to ready and conceptualize. They honestly might be too easy for you, but they're just right for my...

Hey Dude, Thanks for reaching out man. No worries about offending me. It's fun to chat on here. I guess to give you more of an insight on both me (and my politics) I am pretty much a nihilist. I guess I believe that The Universe exists subjectively to everyone's own perspective and lacks an...

My point is there is nothing but evasiveness, but that includes not just me, but everyone. Laws, definitions, labels, and how they apply are entirely subjective. There is no cosmic tablet to read off from and know what they means, including the constitution or what delineates something being a...

Thank you everyone, I really appreciate the welcome. I feel really encouraged. I just got home from work, and it was a good day. Looking forward to de-stressing at the gym and not the bar.

The truth of those words and how the apply to Obama is only your own subjective truth though. From a historical perspective those words have no place being applied to him. I've studied Marxism and know actual Marxists, and no... "socialist" would not be an apt description for Obama or...
