Looks like you haven't done a lot of research. That's okay! There are many, many recorded cases of long COVID that existed long before the first vaccine was even available. Like between March 2020 and March 2021. If that changes your thought.

Feel like I'm gonna be posting this a lot today. Pennsylvania uses a closed party primary voting system. If you're a liberal voting in the primaries, it made the most sense to register Republican in Pennsylvania to vote for someone like Nikki Haley if you despise Trump. Don't want to say this is what happened, just that we shouldn't jump to false flag conspiracy conclusions right now.

I'm admiring the ASCII art - great usage of different characters to smoothe out the outline of the text

We should've been taxing homes or land that people own but are not their primary residence, from the start.

It would be super easy to implement, and flexible - if housing prices are too high for 75% of the population, you raise those taxes little by little and the problem eventually sorts itself out. If it's no longer a problem, you reduce the taxes.

Probably, but could just as well be anxious attachment since we don't have the whole story. I'm on the anxious side and this happens a lot if the other doesn't show enough interest or is closed off in conversation.

Therapist: you need to focus less on the things that are outside of your control, and come to accept the fact that there are some things you just can't change.

Me: crying you mean some things just be what they be?

What do ya have against podcasting? It's educational, informative, it's free speech. I learn so much from them.

For people who are already extremely religious, the experience of losing a child will only strengthen their spirituality. "Part of God's plan" is their coping mechanism.

Only after they burn out in their 60hr jobs paying for their medical debt and kids will the lessons start to be learned. But it sounds like they lucked out with wealthy families who were able to step in and help.

Boomers got more conservative as they grew older because they've been eating shovels of propaganda since reagan and never learned how to fact check like younger generations

Thats the same reason I gave a really crappy company for leaving too. Not saying it's the exact same situation, but just wanted to point out that people sometimes lie to protect their place in their profession.

USA mobile carriers have been charging for tethering since devices implemented the tethering feature. Android enforced it through carrier firmware. I don't remember how apple enforced it.

I remember having to jailbreak all my iPhones so I could get it for free. As iOS started feeling more limited, I bought a galaxy phone from Europe because the international phones didn't have the carrier firmware.

Then T-Mobile was the first big carrier to offer free tethering - I switched to them from AT&T. And now more carriers are offering free tethering because it's losing them customers probably.
