| I don't have the courage to take my own life so I have to keep trudging along, but I would give anything not to have to do it. My greatest wish is not having existed at all. I am quite familiar with that wish, as I sought a solution for that one for many years of my life. Unfortunately it is someth... |

| It is funny you mention that point. I have personally seen the downfall of professors. Thirty years ago professors had both financial security and respect. Then administrations started replacing professors with part time adjunct instructors to save money. Tenure started to disappear so administrati... |

| I think that class in the US is a much bigger factor than is acknowledged out in the open. Social injustice is largely based in class differences and specifically economic differences. Our society has somewhat fudged and obfuscated the issue by creating the perception that class is more social than... |

| A comment on history: WWI is known as the chemist’s war for a reason. One side started and the other followed. Both sides were guilty of such acts. The net result was humanity learned newer ways to destroy each other via chemicals/biologicals. Biological warfare was conducted during this time, but ... |

| The problem is not science, but the misuse of science. Humanity will tend to seek self-destruction. It can be seen in the past and will happen in the future. Science just changes the weapons/techniques that humans use to kill/hurt each other. Humanity needs a lesson in ethics, but then again, who wi... |

| For those who want to kick start Halloween, Svengoolie will be showing Son of Frankenstein and another horror movie tomorrow night on the MeTV channel. He is out of Chicago and has been going at it for 45 years. Son of Frankenstein is one of the best early Frankenstein movies in my opinion. Igor (Be... |

There are thousands of dollars worth of decorations in there. I also have signed horror movie items on display. Unf... |

The president can call in troops to squash a rebellion. Last time (Jan. 6th event), trump did not call for it to stop until hours later on. I do not t... |

I enjoyed the music, but not with so many people present at one time. I had to physically leave the area after a certain amount of time or I would start to feel ill.... |

| Cosplay at comic cons can run the gambit. I have see all types, from the lazy (wearing a dirty large cardboard box) to very elaborate costumes that cost thousands, if not tens of thousands to make. I try not to judge them (with the exception of the truly lazy and very skimpy). There have been a few ... |

| It should be legalized for medical use federally. Where I live, I do not want it legalized for recreational use though, as too many constantly abuse it.
