- Comment on Elon Musk is so rich that 1 week ago:
Did I miss something?
- Comment on 1 week ago:
People love to do activities where their efforts and rewards have a strong correlation to each other. Athletics are an activity where hard work pays off. That’s rare at a job.
- Comment on Why do celebs make statements on controversial stuff and surprised when it comes with consequences? 2 weeks ago:
We elect world leaders who don’t know anything about any of those things. Why shouldn’t a singer or actor use their voice, too? At least they had the discipline to learn a craft.
- Comment on Why do celebs make statements on controversial stuff and surprised when it comes with consequences? 2 weeks ago:
This is a very broad question. But broadly, I think if you’re an artist, you probably got where you are by sharing your point of view with your audience in an authentic way. If you’re going to let fear of disapproval stop you from doing that, you might as well quit anyway.
- Comment on How to make myself read my curriculum books? 2 weeks ago:
Maybe try to find people to study with. Preferably from your class, but even setting up a few hours a week with any other students to have coffee together and just read in a quiet space can help you stay on task. Make use of your library and treat it like a job.
People spend too much time doing everything in the same physical space, and having books downloaded on devices doesn’t help at all. How is your boring textbook supposed to compete with the universe of more attractive activities on your computer? Create an environment for yourself that facilitates study. Structure your life around it.
- Comment on If circumcision is so insanely common in the USA, why do people tease about it on the internet? 2 weeks ago:
It’s only 49‰? Color me surprised.
- Comment on Why should we feel sorry or empathy for the rich when they get scammed? Shouldn't we be holding these scammers parades? 2 weeks ago:
Are they scamming the rich to help the poor? I don’t have any sympathy for rich people falling victim to scams, but I wouldn’t throw a parade for someone who just did something selfish.
