Calculating the number of hours I had left on Earth, and realizing that every hour I spent fretting about shit that doesn't matter is an hour I won't spend having the best possible time on this dirtball with my family and my friends before I kick the bucket.
Once I "let go" and decided nothing really mattered, it felt like my whole body finally deeply relaxed for good.
He did say he would lower prices on day one, and prices on day one of his presidency were definitely lower. So he delivered, you just have to think backward in time.
Facebook's entire business model consists in invading as much of everybody's privacy as possible and monetizing people's private data. Its "products" are just honeypots to attract marks to milk for private data. You didn't really think they turned a profit selling electronic sunshades did you?

That's an expensive 5 minutes of enjoyment, trust me on that one.
So your theory is that those illegally-abducted detainees, who know they're one flight away from landing in a Salvadorian concentration camp without having seen a judge, are bored attention whores who think they can get away with staging a little dramatic show in the courtyard?
