I hope you are investing that saved money in something that at least pays a generous dividend. it's paying about 5% effective interest a year right now, and it seems stable (it's pretty weird that the gross interest has even increased a little bit, while inflation, which is still pretty high right ... |

what was really hard for me when i started college (about a decade ago) was that sharing an apartment with my (former) friends turned out not to be so great. they had moved on from their high-school selves, and apparently i wasn't hipster enough to hang out with them. they became very annoying, they... |

yeah... i'm not seeing phantom cats or fruit flies this time though. it almost feels like by coping with it differently (i'm very aware of what exactly is stressing me, and i know that there's not much i can do about it) i end up having different sensory symptoms. or maybe it's just something physio... |

lately it seems like i'm being haunted by a distinct smell of exhaust fumes. until today i thought it was probably something real that i'm oversensitive to (which would explain why no one else can smell it. it does happen with high-pitched sounds for instance). "maybe air pollution has become m... |

i'll give you one more ounce of benefit of the doubt and assume that you're actually not being disingenuous. you really don't realize how you're just being condescending based on pretty random assumptions? that's only a rhetorical question though. i'm not continuing this conversation. i got other th... |

I think all men should be required to freeze their sperm and have a vasectomy on their 18th birthday. Then everyone can enjoy sex without risk of accidental pregnancies. As a woman, this seems a completely fair and satisfactory solution to me. :D honestly, the compulsory aspect is a little complica... |

I'm sorry to everyone who will be hurt by Trump's rhetoric. When I voted, I was not thinking of my marginalized friends. I was not thinking of the kids in school being beat up, having their property vandalized by Trump supporters. I was not thinking of the riots that my vote would cause, that hurt ... |

I imagine the referendum's purpose is to strengthen the chief executive and streamline governance aka austerity to stay in line with what the EU dictates that's oversimplification though. i don't know if that point has come up in the public debate, but if it has, then it doesn't seem to be central ... |

i'm hoping it won't all end up with "screw the system!" winning everywhere though. even when and where the sentiment may be appropriate, the value of stability (even when things don't seem so stable) shouldn't be underestimated. and of course, "anything but this bad thing" doesn'... |

That's a very real possibility. Just the same, he may have unleashed something ugly into the American mainstream with his racist following. whatever the case may be, i think the rule of thumb remains the same: "separate man from myth". question the myth and confront the man. separate the ... |

Yes, but did Berlusconi court radical and violent racists? Even if Trump doesn't really hold to their racial ideology, those people are still expecting something in return for their support. His plans for Sessions and Bannon don't put my fears to rest. remember that he most likely doesn't care thou... |

All I care about is how he very well may have allowed for hate and racism to become not just acceptable, but fashionable. Everything good that our country stands for may very well be in danger of disappearing into the abyss of everything that's wrong with our country. that's a valid concern, but i ... |
