They made a stupid deal and that is on them. They are not part of NATO and they will not be part of NATO. The unfortunate truth is the country is being used by multiple countries and their government itself is beyond corrupted, has been for years. Everything happening now has been in the making for 10+ years and most people don't even realize that. 

Whenever you're giving up your nuclear weapons projects, it's a sign of weakness as far as I'm concerned. They shouldn't have done that for any reason whatsoever. They would have still found a way to survive with any kind of sanctions that's going to come from the World Powers. Look at what North Korea did, they made the right decision for North Korea.

Tinder is a hook-up app and nothing more. Sure, people have found their spouses on there but it is a drop in the bucket. The site is mostly promoting hook-up culture and paying for better access to something won't fix the problem. This is like Only Fans trying to move away from sex workers. It isn't going to happen at this point. They can try to paint themselves in a different light all they want. 

Thank you for coming out direct, hard and truthful about what Tinder truly is. It's just a hook up platform where ladies get into their prostitution business in a low key. It's more or less a platform where those who doesn't want to go down ike route of using OnlyFans.

YouTube used to be just that, You Tube. Where anybody could make a channel. Now, it's more about the bigwigs & they are big as well on censorship. Pushing their one-sided agenda which I don't think is fair.

This is practically the reason why so many other streaming services started popping up here and there to give smaller content creators a lifeline and they're grabbing it with both. It's the same thing with what Twitch is doing as well to small content creators. They are being suppressed so hard. 

I'm a born into a Roman Catholic religion but as I grew up, I became embracing to all religion. Of course, I believe in higher power. You can call it God or whatever it's called in your own religion or belief. I know one thing for certain, there's a supernatural power that moves everything in the world. 

The problem is that neither of the country wants to compromise and as long as things stays that way, this war will keep going on for generations to come. Hamas is the smaller weaker and smaller country compared to Isreal, I'd expect them to act accordingly but they are just being Ahole to each other.

Sadly we are much better at building walls and drawing lines than we are at compromise and accepting the ways of others.

This is the reason why we have so much hate for one another all over the world. These walls and drawing lines is what leads to all the war we are seeing all over because one will never like to concede their spot to another. Religion have never been the problem, it's the people who are practicing it that's going at it the wrong way. 

Personally, I'm all in support of this development because the real social media platforms we have today are totally not for kids in any way. Look at all the stuffs going on in TikTok and Instagram with ladies going almost naked to grow their followers because that's how they become famous and rich. The content they create isn't safe for kids to watch.

It is a touchy situation. It's a personal decision & if a woman needs one & it's illegal in her state, she has to find a way.

I also believe it's out there to take away from more serious matters. Everybody I talk to cares more about inflation & high gas prices. If they can pay the bills. Will they lose their homes.

 

Eventually, people will always do whatever they want to do even if the law doesn't support it. They will definitely find a way to get it done. Btw, you're right about what's getting most people worried about inflation which affects virtually everything. This is making a lot of people struggle so much. 

Honestly, looking at how much Elon Musk paid for the acquisition of Twitter's ownership, there was no way I wasn't expecting him not to monetize the subscription access to the social media site. One way or another, he's definitely going to get back 100% of what he paid or at least part of it. 

Personally, I believe that this discovery of alien life with human-level technology is already something that have happened by our government but they're keeping everything airtight lock in order not to cause mass panic. The level of technology advancement we are witnessing today looks like something that have been copied from the aliens.

Some rules are reasonable.  However, others are tyrannical.  In fact, they just encourage lying.  Well, should rules be obeyed, even if they aren't wise?

Well, I would say that the same way rules are meant to obeyed is the same way rules are meant to be broken. This is why no matter the kind of rules that have been kept in place, people will always keep breaking them.

Good Morning everybody! A dreary, albeit warmer day today. Will be able to take longer walks with our dog without having to trudge through 2 feet of snow lol

Yeah, that's for sure lol. It's better than losing. Well, guess what? They've eventually turned up big time in the last match played yesterday in the Round 16. They beat Cameroon 🇨🇲 2-0 soundly. Everyone in my country was very happy last night 😂.

I have a schedule as well. Then I can get to all the forums I want to & be able to spend time on them.

If I get a PM, I tend to try to view it as soon as I can. Unless they give a snippet & it's a generic one for a holiday or updates.

Yeah, I figured that's the best way to use forums as long as you have other real life situations to take care of everyday. Being able to manage your time with a schedule will make it a bit more easier to keep everything under wraps. 

Too much patenting isn't good, I'm very much in support of that because it makes kids/teenagers to behave like puppets. Yes, I understand that parents have to play a big role in the lives of their kids but there should be a limit to everything. There should be a point where they are to sit back and just observe. After, they can give corrections but it's important to allow the kids to start making some decisions of their own at some point.

The rich think they are "all that" & can do whatever they want. That's what they are trying to do with Maui. They used the "fires" as an excuse to drive out locals & make it where only the rich can afford it.

Nobody has more Rights than anybody else. I don't care if it's skin color, wealth, belief. We are all human beings.

This is exactly one of the reason why a lot of people seem to be very angry and hostile to the rich because they have always been on the short end of how cruel those rich folks have treated them. Right is meant to be the same for everyone, simply because you're richer than others shouldn't make the same right apply differently to you.

I think part of the reason why they did something is because SSSniperwolf is predominately associated with YouTube and due to most of her income coming from YouTube, and is prominently shown on their front page, is basically a YouTube employee. Her name is essentially one of their brands.

So while she broke the law on another platform in her private time, but since YouTube pays for her living, their name will keep coming up.

Exactly! As long as you're like an image of a brand and they pay you for it, it's very important to make sure that whatever you're doing doesn't drag back any dirt to the brand you're representing. I believe that's the reason why YouTube had to take action. 

From the story of creation in the Bible, God have always given man free will to do whatever they want expect for eating the forbidden fruit. Even at that, he didn't stop man from deciding to eat it. He allowed him to choose to eat it or not but there's always a consequence for every action. 

Anyone who watches tech and sci-fi movies will definitely understand how devastating an EMP bomb threat is. I have seen in it several times to know that it's something very scary. I think it's in Halo TV Series in episode one that I last watched it being used in a small a small scale, imagine what it can do when used in global scale. 

Well, I would say that it's the geography of Puerto Rico that's playing a part in how it's economic growth and development have been going for a while. As a result of its obvious small size as an island, it have always lacked of natural resources used to produce raw materials and they depend heavily on imports, this is what slows down its prosperity.

Has this changed at all? I chose Yes, it's inappropriate. While people wear less at the beach, there's a time & a place. This is not just an adult restaurant, kids are there as well. They don't need to wear such skimpy outfits.

You have my full support for your assessment of this kind of work dress. It's definitely too much in my opinion. It's not even about just kids being in the restaurant, such dress looks too provocative for some men. A restaurant work should wear something decent and appropriate not an outfit that looks like what a stripper would wear or a beach outfit.

I feel a lot of internet activism is kind of pointless, especially on social media. I don’t think anyone’s ever had their opinions changed on Facebook or Twitter. It’s usually people posting for validation from their peers, or just pretending to be worldly.

I completely agree with you on this one with what's been happening on social media platforms lately. It's worst on Instagram and Twitter. Everyone is trying to get people's validation from their peers and the general public which doesn't make any sense to me. 

I believe that a real activism should definitely have goals backing it up because without those goals, it's just a waste of time and energy. 

The simple truth is that everyone will never like you or be in support of whatever you are doing. I have learnt to accept and deal with this for a long time which is why whatever they do or say about me with respect to whatever I'm doing, I wouldn't care about them. 

Without resources, there's no way any side is going to win a war. This is why in the olden days of war, supply routes always gets raided and provisions burnt down. Hunger is a very powerful tool for war. It can make your opponent surrender when they are supposed to fight but they can't fight with empty stomach. The same thing is what's happening in our world today but it's now more of military resources. 

A mother who's overbearing always tries to make other people do what she wants in an unpleasant and forceful way which is very wrong. The way they go about being too defensive and protective of their kids can be very annoying. I watched one tell a man in a fight that he should swap his seat with his daughter because she like seeing out from the window. I was like is this woman mad or something?

I think the American society is on a path of raising weak kids.  Kids have to learn to adult-up. Well, what I was I found out that appearing strong was the best thing, not actually fighting.  It's the same idea with possessing a nuclear arsenal. 😉

I have the same thoughts too because with how kids behave these days, it's very obvious that they are weak from the core of their foundation. This is why they are stronger only online being toxic and all but in real person, they can't man up in any way. 

For me, the only who deserves to be bullied is a bully himself or herself. Let a bigger bully deal with the person.
