Yup. Bad, quick typing. But it is nice to see women winning in usually male dominant categories, but as long as it's deserving.

Honestly you can. If you take one or two classes at the time while working full time and you take like 20 years to finish. And forget about a gradaute degrees because most of the time they're are full time programs.

To be honest, I would be like "good for a women to win in that category!" But it wouldn't be ok if others were better

Have to say. I always thought this story was a fishy one. Honestly she could still be of the hook by saying that "yes tell them lets see if they think it was a fair fight" if it actually wasn't and he is trying to manipulate her by saying he will lie about it.. but then she said "i know it was a fair fight" and shot herself in the foot.

Just wan to make it clear that im not defending antivax just in case. Just saying that's how it was viewed and how I grew up. "If you had it as a child great! That means you are not getting it when you are older when it's worse" not saying it was the best way to look at it, but was how it was. And I meant like chickenpox, in the sense almost everyone has it as a kid. Personally I didn't have measles. But a lot of my friends did. And I remember at one point people from basically the department of health came to the school and vaccinated all the kids (imagine doing that now lol. The outrage!) And idk if that was when it was found/invented or when it was available in my country and it was almost eradicated after that.
Edit* just looked it up because I was curious. The vaccination campaign I mentioned was in the 90s. It looks like it was after the recommendation for a second dosage made in 1989 maybe that's what I got. But then again, I'm not sure since the info I saw was for USA

Yes and. Maintaining your look yes hasto do with money. The pain part, although the money helps by having private yoga classes and a trainer, and massage therapist, it can also be done with just keep moving and exercising.

It is interesting to me that measles was just a disease you get as a kod. Just like chicken pox. Almost a right of passage. Not that bad. Thankfully we all survived it and the vaccine was just to get it and now you won't have it.

Although I hate how horrible things are, I also think, well there used to be gladiators and people got entertained by killings

@abusername sure a shorter week or hours might help people spend more time with family or doing a hobby they like and that way help with the feeling of mission on important things in life. My point is thay although it is inspirational, it is not realistic. Sure some people can or achieve it, but like you said we at least need to cover our basics, and that's (usually) posible with a "grind" work, and some luxury might be possible either making an effort to find a better job or really applying oursels to have our own business maybe. But some people might just need a 9 to 5 with low risk because they have a family or any specific reason, like a disability. And it would be awful if a robot takes their job. Some jobs are seem like mundane and are actually important to society (except for some office jobs)
Shouldn't that happen due to the era gap? 2 comments

@Abusername I'm not a fan of that personally. 1. That's how all futuristic robot wars start. 2. Yes it is a nice motovational image, but it is unrealistic to think we can all follow our dreams of Not working for some else. Teachers are necessary and have provably one of the worst jobs in America, but there they are!

Just an example but mail carriers, sanitation workers, cleaning crews, and so many other things that might be tedious but we usually don't appreciate how important they are.

Yup. Something I saw during the Last SOTU is that Juan Guaido was there. As simple as Fox news identified him as interim president (which constitutionally he is) and CNN identified him as oposition leader, which is why CNN gets labeled as socilists/ far lefts, which can be a stretch but then they do things like that. (I'm Venezuelan so I noticed those things) but it is a clear example

I think they are more now than before and yes. Most of them are. I think news of major networks try to stay fair because they one everyone's ratings but they are very superficial too. Point is, you can't condemn CNN (which is suuuuper biased) while defending Fox news, who doesn't even try to pretend not to be biased

I agree. The media needs to be called out sometimes, or at lot of times. But he acts like he wants to mute whatever disagrees with him. But praises fox news which is also totally biased.
