Don't forget radiation. You also glow differently when exposed to massive amounts of radiation.

Arrg, I can totally appreciate the sentiment but "overwhelm" is a verb. Both fatigue and exhaustion are nouns. You can be overwhelmed or something may overwhelm you but you can't be "overwhelm".

Kittens can literally only grow when they are asleep. This does not change the fact it's totally adorable.

I always loved and hated those things. I loved them because I got to see all the cool books out there but I hated them because we didn't have the money to buy any.

Awfully short sighted aren't they? Do you know how many people listen to books while they're working out? I know I do. Then not only do you get the know the book but you also get the benefit of the workout.

That reminds of the, I think, scientist that wrote a text book or dissertation and put we instead of I. Instead of going back through and changing every instance he just added his cat as coauthor.

Right up until it doesn't for some reason. To me that's the best part. Not that it sometimes just does what it wants but finding out what it is that's making it act weird. There's some really cool stuff that we've found and now use because someone did something or used something that should have worked just fine but didn't or acted really really strange.

It's almost like stereotypes consist of normal behaviors. Huh, who would of thought.

Also, there's something screwy going on. It's 12:01am EST. I just posted this and it says "lucky11 · 4 hours ago · FIRST". Guess my posts are traveling through time.

Must be a change of language thing because to me being loved is all those other things. If you don't have them you are not being loved. Now I'm fine with changing it up a little so that is says "Being loved, meaning respected, prioritized, supported, desired, and understood is the minimum". Of course that takes work on both sides. And there is nothing worse, in a normal relationship, than one side taking advantage of the others love for them. So if you're not "being loved" in return it may be best to find someone who will.

"Give me Liberty or give me death". A famous quote though mostly not understood today simply because of the things you've said. Context is everything.
noun: liberty
1. The state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views.
In today's society people equate it to things like wearing a mask. Yes, it can be taken that way but what the person at the time meant was the freedom to not have your house burnt down or arrested and thrown in prison because you might be a criminal or related to one. I whole heartedly agree it's phenomenal that this is not the case, at least in the US. But we also need to be vigilant we don't recreate the same type of society that birthed that quote. I don't want to see that other famous quote come to fruition either. "Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times."

That goes right into the whole "my truth" crap. Which is unfortunately, propagated by many media outlets. And you're right, asking questions while not actually looking for the objective truth but instead the one that fits your narrative is all too common. The older I get the more I dislike it when someone asks a question but either doesn't listen to the answer or has already decided what the answer should be and refuse to understand why your answer isn't the same. I also find I don't have a problem if the answer is "this is what we know so far" or "honestly, we just don't know yet we need more time". Of course I seem to be in a minority on that opinion and alot of people, groups, news agencies etc... are more than happy saying something is an absolute fact, end of, just to seem like an authority on a subject. Then instead of admitting if they were wrong they just gloss over it and pretend they did no such thing.

One of my favorite books 1 comments

Of course this does require people to actually read. I swear so many people are almost proud of the fact they haven't read a book in years or since school.
P1: I just finished the best book you should read it.
P2: Yeah no, I haven't read a book in years.
P1: But you get so much out of them.
P2: I just can't get into them.
P1: Well what genre do you like?
P2: I don't know, I don't read books. I just wait for the movies.
P1: But the books can be so much better.
P2: It just takes too long to get through them.
P1: Well this book only has about 200 pages. It's real short.
P2: That'd take me like 3 weeks to read.
P1: You suck at reading then. Of course you don't like reading if you can barely do it. It's just like everything else you have to get better at it and the better you get the more you like it.
P2: Whatever you nerd. I'm perfectly fine not reading.
P1: You really frustrate me.

That being said, even people who know nothing on a subject can ask good questions. They might not even be able to understand the answer but if they ask those who do know the subject sometimes those people take the answer and work with it. On the flip side this is also how you learn about something. If you know nothing about a subject but hear something you think is fishy and question it; you learn about said subject. That doesn't make you an expert right off the bat but just because you're not contributing to scientific advances doesn't mean you shouldn't question things. Asking the questions, valid, stupid, ignorant, or genuine is better than not asking at all. After all that soccer mom may be an idiot but hopefully after she's told, no it does not, she'll at least be less ignorant than she was before. Many of today's problems occur because people aren't asking. Instead they just take it as fact and heaven help you if you question them.

I just play the over under game. I look at what little is in my cart and guess if it's going to be over or under $100. Used to be I could really take up some space in the cart and still be under but today? Let's just say I'm carrying a whole lot less bags than before.

Lol. As I get older I can totally relate to the what my parents meant when they said I was a still a kid. Now that it's been 20 years on, teens really are just kids. Somewhat reliable, okay conversationalist (sometimes), and totally not mature enough to be in a relationship with. And I swear I was never that dumb, though I probably was. I imagine after a 100+ years they'd feel like they were robbing the cradle with 20-30 yr olds.

Now is there a response where someone takes this seriously and has to have it explained that pop is used because they pop out of the toaster? That's the one I want to see.

Oh, you mean a for profit business is catering to their market base. Shocking. It's almost like they like making money over doing what should be each individuals job in their society.
