Bitcoin specifically? No. It's a janky prototype that should have been superseded a long time ago.

Crypto in general? Probably something. It's good for buying and selling illegal things.

Well, I don't see the government covering it up, and I don't believe in conspiracy theories.

-5. I had one parent that was not great, and one that was a doormat. It wasn't any of the usual suspects, and I would say that that parent is eccentric and oblivious more than a bad person, but in the end I think I came out with some trauma.

School was really hard early on (because I'm also weird), while the parental issues grew more severe later on.

For the Republicans, it's either this guy or a recently promoted conspiracy influencer with random frat bros as staff. The Democrats will still manage to lose.

(This is my impression as a Canadian)

I'm not surprised, and I'd still say it's not an unlikely grand conspiracy if some rich guy paid a couple guards to kill him.

I'd come and talk to you about it, but I'd need A Free Ride.

Well, I don't really love that as a security philosophy. If it's somehow not going on now it will be soon.

Good for you! That's quite the impressive setup.

Like I said in OP, that's how modern dictatorships work, too. They have coups and intrigues and corruption absolutely everywhere you look. The dictator spends most of their time just staying on top and keeping the factions in balance.

I'd say you're right that the degree of control was lower on average before the conveniences of fast travel and communication, but then again it varied quite a bit. Rome's level of centralisation is still etched across the European landscape.

English orthography is pretty dumb, TBF.

I don't think anyone would call their religion a hobby, though.

I feel like it would be easier to list the hobbies that aren't, based on the answers so far.

I mean, Buddhists just did a genocide in Myanmar. They have a cleaner track record than Abrahamic faiths for sure, but if you spend serious time in actual Buddhist places it fills the exact same societal roles.

Neopaganism is a bit of an odd one out in that list, because it's a newly invented thing.

You don't??

Friends and family will either listen to a point before saying they can’t handle it

Well, that's good to hear. Hopefully it helps, and I'd also suggest that it means they do care, at least a bit.

Maybe they do need to give you more time to vent, it's hard to say without being there. In general, we on the internet don't know you and can't have enough information to help you the way a therapist can.

The fact that oxygen may have shot up to modern levels really early on for a bit fascinates me in particular.

This is either bait, or you need to get the police involved for the kids and find somewhere safer/saner to live yourself.

So how much time will this add to most trips, in the end?

Edit: I have no formed opinion on this policy. I don't even know which side is downvoting me, lol.

What about just enforcement?

We'd love to. You know we get it first and in higher concentration, right? Not to mention all our shit that burns down in the process.

And I mean, it's from the climate change that you helped make as well...
