Money, makes life easier (as in surplus to your immeadete needs)

I was always frugal and started investing small amounts in the stock market when I was 19 , started reading the financial news when i was 18 and never stopped doing both. Still invest my surplus income now (still live a frugal life) and still read.

Quit work at 35, been mortgage free for decades and am 58 now. Allows me to live where I want, which is a quiet small rural town well away from everyone.

This would be illegal in Australia of course. You can’t carry a knife without reason eg a Chef has a reason.

Just keep it on the down low (knife not visible) if you, like I, do carry one.

Until that great and glorious day, we need to cut emsisons. NOW. While we wait around for dues ex machina we destroy the biosphere and collapse civilisation.

Stop flying, stop driving…all too inconvenient? Then you destroy civilisation and you won’t be able to fly and drive anyway.

That said, most people don’t think at all. They just go along with it

Susan Sontag was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be moved in either direction” —Kurt Vonnegut

Unless you’re white and in the GOP, then it’s any other day of the week

Is this American ? You don’t say where. I’m not aware of any difference in the states here in Australia. But if so, maybe RMIT?

Same way I get on wih other people who have imaginary friends, I just ignore them and worry about the inevitable indoctrination (aka abuse) of their children.

Can we have the beatitudes instead ? You know the supposed words of Christ.
