  What a coincidence. A couple of days days ago in the UK, there was a tribunal court judgement on the use of the word fuck, that’s favourable to the claimant being dismissed by his company.

  One way to get access to OED without paying a cent is by using kindle app. When you highlight an English word, if will open the dict. You can search for any word from there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone wish they could go back to the beginning of schooling and re-live their education/school experience from the start?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish to re-live my school life with better career counselling experience. Career counsellors were non-existent during my school years. I supposed, my career path will be a lot less complicated if someone could direct me to the right career based on my inclination instead of me choosing jobs that has nice titles.

  if you use VPN and someone abuse the IPs, then you’ll likely get captchas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What if the Gaza Strip declared independence?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They are not going to declare independence from the whole Palestine, very unlikely so. Even though they are separated from the West Bank, they have a lot of supporters there. People in the West Bank even voted in majority for them in 2006. The only reason they can’t rule the West Bank is because Fatah has greater number of henchmen there and Fatah got the support from Israel and the West to cling to power.

  Currently if you study the maps, their forces is moving towards the West Bank, at one time just 10km from it. And they have been making many pleas in the social media to invite those in the west bank to join them. So, they’ve been quite a number of incidence of attack in the area around west bank, indicating that they are gaining more support.

  So the trend now is for them to unite instead of separated into different entity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Barbie’ Becomes Biggest Warner Bros. Movie Ever at Domestic Box Office, Beating ‘The Dark Knight’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And a non-white, an outsider and onlooker on the American sociopolitical scenery, I can attest that I also regard the non-white people as perceptually racist, and sometimes even worst. It’s been many occasions where they don’t say a word regarding all-non-white-casts movies. But when people made all-white movies (or if none of them won any awards), they will throw tantrums for being left out. Quite typical scenarios.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Does a Country's Debt Affect its Citizens?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  ok, so. the way I see it the same as in investment. As long the debts can create revenues, you can pile up more debts.

  Yep. Many countries country got free healhcare. Even my South East Asia third world country got free healhcare. But in some European countries the affordable-based system. In the Netherlands, you’ll get a rebate (about equal to the amount paid) if your salary is less than certain threshold. Basically (almost) free healhcare.
