It is all over everything right now. It’s giving me PTSD from 2016. Are we voting Jill Stein again?

That’s sad in 33 years of pratice the best testimony he has ever gotten from a client is just random rambaling.
I’m probably weird but oatmeal raisin cookies are dank and I would pick them over chocolate chips cookies 90 percent of the time.
I get that it is honestly hard to read stuff you just don’t connect with or find interesting on some level. I absolutely loved the odyssey and huck finn. I can completely understand people not getting on board with Shakespeare especially when you’re younger.
I’ve definitely gone back in red some of the really popular books back when I was in high school because I can appreciate them more now. However, I still read a ton of fantasy novels and stuff like that which I find more interesting then most things I read back then.
I still do that myself I’ll read a whole page and then realize I have zoned out the entire time and remember nothing. Usually that happens when I’m not as invested in the material. I’m current reading the wheel of times series and am enjoying it. However it has it’s boring or just overly detailed areas that I find myself zoning out more in.
Russia is just going to keep going the West has proven it self as weak and full of fear. All Russian had Todo was wait and use propaganda campaigns all over the Internet. Soon Trump will be president again and Putin will get everything he wants.
Oh as a teenager reading those books I definitely didn’t enjoy them as much as I do now as an adult. As an adult I 100 percent enjoy reading more compared to my younger years but I still found some of those story’s very compelling.
ADHD can be a pain in the ass especially when you are being forced to perform in an environment that is basically your worst enemy. I don’t think standardized testing shows who’s smart and who isn’t. It shows who’s better at memorization and concentration maybe. I also hated word counts as well and that why I also liked scientific writing better because it’s to the point and cuts out all the fluff. I love reading the fluff now but not into writing it myself.
Oh okay I didn’t realize all I had Todo was overthrow a government with the most powerful military in the world and just aspire a little harder.
Thanks so much for that insightful comment I should be able to get this all done by Wednesday. Thanks for the bullet proof plan.
I vote in the primaries, I vote in every election, I try my best to get everybody around me to vote as well. I’m trying to work within the system so we can try to change it for the better while we still can.
The books usually assigned in school are literary classics. Such as The Giver, Tuesday’s with Morrie, the grapes of wrath, the adventures of huckleberry finn, the odyssey, of mice and men, Moby dick, the importance of being Ernest, death of a salesman, and I could keep going. You are telling me those books are shitty? I don’t think the books are the problem.
Lots of people said something similar in 2016. Don’t underestimate the America public and the GOP to find a way to put the worst possible person in power.
Just watch trump will win and he will get away with all his legal troubles. Ukraine will fall, Gaza will be nothing but sand and death, and our democracy will take it’s last dying breath as we fully become an oligarchy.
Or maybe Biden will win but probably not.
The police auction is going to be lit.
What do you call avoiding sleep until the very last minute because your life is only work and responsibilities. If you go to sleep that just means you have to wake up and do it all over again. So you stay up late so you have some sense of a life outside of this soul cruising existence.
Well we should really try a mass protest first. If we can actually get people together we can see if mass protest work. The only other attentive is to compost the rich!
I didn’t see anyone in the above comments saying Muslims are rapist. Obviously deeming an entire group of people to be rapist is not only wrong but blatantly racist. As far as I was reading people were just talking about the reports coming out from the festival attack.
I believe people were talking about the reports coming out from first hand accounts of survivors. If you want to dispute those claims that’s fine but you shouldn’t go around calling everybody racist because they are discussing the news that they read. I would try to just warn people to be careful of what they are reading because there is going to be a lot of misinformation and fog of war going on.
I get getting angry though I’m sure you have had to deal with some nasty people and comments all your life and that just isn’t right. This is a really touchy and controversial topic and it’s easy for conversations to turn into yelling.
You are being way too sensitive to the fact that they’re Muslim and not the fact that they’re terrorists. People are upset that the terrorist killed and raped people.
Yoskovich managed to survive, but a report from Alerta News 24 contains allegations that some women were raped in the rave area of the festival, next to the corpses of their friends.
These are the articles that people are referencing about the rape allegations. This seems to be coming from somebody who was at the festival and survived. Were you at the festival and survived and have a different first-hand take?
It’s probably true that some of the countries that are members of the UN use that to spread misinformation and/or keeping the UN from doing a more effective job. However, to state that that’s the only thing the UN does is In my opinion is completely inaccurate. You’re welcome to look at my comments further up or go to the UN website yourself and see all the different areas that they make an impact in. Like I had said in another comment just because they aren’t perfect doesn’t mean they’re pointless. You’re welcome to come to your own conclusions, but I feel that the UN is a net positive in this world. I think it’s better to have the UN and actually work on improving it than to not have it at all.
This would be a good place to start if you’re curious about the mission statement of the UN. This website has a lot of good information about their areas of focus. https://www.un.org/en/our-work
The work of the UN focuses on five major areas. 1.Maintain International Peace and Security. 2.Protect Human Rights. 3.Deliver Humanitarian Aid. 3.Support Sustainable Development and Climate Action. 3.Uphold International Law
They have a lot of information on their website about all of these areas. I would highly suggest going and looking at information on their peacekeeping and how they’ve helped in that area. They are certainly far from perfect but that doesn’t make them pointless. They do a lot of good work and are making a net positive impact.
"UN peacekeeping missions operate in the most dangerous and difficult environments in the world, dealing with conflicts – or their aftermath – which others cannot or will not address. We can achieve what others can’t, but success is never guaranteed.
We have, built up an impressive record of peacekeeping achievements over more than 70 years of our existence, including winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
Since 1948, the UN has helped end conflicts and foster reconciliation by conducting successful peacekeeping operations in dozens of countries, including Cambodia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mozambique, Namibia and Tajikistan.
UN peacekeeping has also made a real difference in other places with recently completed or on-going operations such as Sierra Leone, Burundi, Côte d’Ivoire, Timor-Leste, Liberia, Haiti and Kosovo. By providing basic security guarantees and responding to crises, these UN operations have supported political transitions and helped buttress fragile new state institutions. They have helped countries to close the chapter of conflict and open a path to normal development, even if major peacebuilding challenges remain.
In other instances, however, UN peacekeeping – and the response by the international community as a whole – have been challenged and found wanting, for instance in Somalia, Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia in the early 1990s. These setbacks provided important lessons for the international community when deciding how and when to deploy and support UN peacekeeping as a tool to restore and maintain international peace and security"
This is only touching on the peacekeeping aspect of the UN. They do lot of other work such as humanitarian aid, human rights, international law, sustainable development, and focus on climate change.
The UN isn’t perfect however it’s hard to ignore that it does have a net positive on the world. We can always work to make it better but I think saying that it’s useless isn’t true.
You can look up more of what the UN does on their website or feel free to find other sources on what they’ve done since they came to be.

This person is just pissed the Jill Stein push isn’t working as well here as it did in 2016 on Reddit. We aren’t voting green we have a fucking democracy to save.
