  • Its said its better to give than recieve but for many folks its easier to give than to recieve. Accepting and appreciating something given in good faith is a good thing to cultivate in oneself. Unfortunately we tend to have a culture of mandatory gift giving and reciprocating that tends to result in a lot of junk being created. Its good to have something that is wanted and will be useful. Now if his friend holds it over him in some way then it will ruin the friendship but thats sorta fine as likely it was not a good one anyway, but lets hope that is not the case.

  • Its so funny that they have hid so much military work in other agencies due to the popularity in the 20th century with science and unpopularity of the military and he goes and cuts the science budget and finds he has to increase the military one. I remember dreaming about how great the 21st century would be. Entering into a new millenia. sigh.

  • Oh yeah. I have seen many a comic with the comparison and apple even had an ad about it. Its crazy what people will put up with for so little and if it were the government, oh boy, but you know all good because corporations have our best interest or they are not as powerful as governments to control us or ruin our lives... /s

  • I would say having less and less ability to stand up to corps that control you financially. It just keeps getting worse and worse with fewer and fewer options. I mean yeah there are people behind it but its the corp that gives them power.

  • Depends on how you look at it. By and large screwed until I get it remotely locked maybe. On the other hand I only have a smarthphone for work reasons and it mostly stays at home and if I have it out its for its phone function and a thief would be hard pressed to find a point where I had it unlocked.

  • This is something each person needs to decide for themselves. Oftentimes people run out of options. Many black folk just wanted to live quiet lives but they knew that was just not going to be. Its why it was such a big thing that emmitt tills mom had an open casket. Its so people could not lie to themselves about what is happening and will continue to happen without change. Similarly smartphones have made issues with police violence undeniable.

  • not I. One does not support the middle class enough but still does stuff like regulation and tries to improve healthcare, the environment, and other aspects of the country and the other tears it apart. One side is freindly with billionaires and the other is their whore.

  • I find most everyone I know had been just keeping afloat even before this year and now are facing more disruptions. Most can't handle knowing someone needs help because they are not in a position to give it. May not apply to your case but its something I see in my life.
