My grandma passed away from dementia a couple of years back. My mom has symptoms of ADHD. I am diagnosed with ADHD. The only person in the family to get diagnosed and actively treating with meds and stuff.
I wonder if knowledge and meds can stave of dementia.
Sometimes you need to call out media sensationalism. That barely was a slap. It definitely wasn't injurious, powerplay maybe, locally it may even be judged playful.
Western sensitivity doesn't always translate well globally.
All recent stupid SC stuff is because of 6-3 votes. These old fucks are seated for life.
Live in domestic help is extremely common all across India. They probably think they did nothing wrong as it wouldn't have raised any eyebrows in India.
Not too complicated. Zionism basically boils down to "Israel is Jew home country (for mythical reasons)" therefore "Jews should strive to achieve it". It may have other connotations but I don't think a lot of people are confused about this.
To be honest, we are fucking up the planet at an exponentially faster rate, so it is natural that mitigation solutions seems exponentially crazier.
There are people that believe that doing these crazy things will actually reverse the damage.
Then there are people like me who not only believe we are fucked but also believe that anything we do now is completely pointless as we are fucked either way so why bother.
All fine and dandy. Kudos to Apple for the innovation! But then they decided to keep it strictly inside Apple.
That's not how communication works. Imagine if Bell kept the telephone to themselves... Oh wait... They tried... Got sued for it... Company broke up and the whole world got interoperable telephone system that is alive to this day.
Innovation is great, capitalizing on innovation is also great. But eventually it needs to reach everyone and the answer cannot be "then everyone should buy Apple".
Imagine if DARPA kept the Internet as "Americans only"
Completely on point. I am an engineer. If I were to self inflict gunshots, I would 100% design a contraption that would shooot multiple times. Need to make sure.
Also need to hide this contraption while I am in the dying process. To make sure people know it was self inflicted.
A terrible coincidence, indeed.
That's why we need to hit peak oil fast. It will be a definitive fuck you to oil.
Israel cannot let Palestinians live as human beings because they out-number the Israelis. Giving then rights would give the Palestinians a majority in voting etc. So the Israeli's opted to treat the Palestinians like sub humans. Treating an entire country as subhumans... For decades... has consequences.
Everyday the movie Idiocracy gets more prophetic.
