I wear blue-light glasses all day too. It's the difference between my autism being a manageable disorder, or a major disability. This light situation isn't getting any better with the rise of the LED and the constant use of screens; modern decor too seeks to create a sunny look but instead gives ste... |

Sometimes, unfortunately. That's the type of crap I despise. I've been in courts of law where the perp's statement of remorse carries more weight than the Victim Impact Statement of those who were traumatised, or the families of those killed. It's sickening.

We need to lose the "hate crime" status. Hate crime = "thoughtcrime." Assault is assault. "Microaggression" is ill manners. Discrimination is discrimination, and not everybody can have everything. Freedom is not the same as liberty. I agree with what you say about assa... |

Marknis, you're 32. That's not so bad really. The best thing you can do is keep your job, maybe find another one if you like it. Then write. You have short stories written. Well then, publish them!

It's called volunteering for a reason; because it's voluntary. People often will join together to do something they like or support. Lots of people do that without expecting to be paid.
