Its amazing how worked up ppl get when told how their feelings are simply a bio-hormonal soup “off” it’s normal which can be corrected by basic actions If you feel like you: hate everyone, eat everyone hates you, sleep you hate yourself, shower everyone hates everyone, go out

A random thing someone told me once that I now think about constantly: If you feel like you hate everyone, eat. If you feel like everyone hates you, sleep. If you feel like you hate yourself, shower. If you feel like everyone hates everyone, go outside.

Re-telling of covid's origin story in @guardian today misses key points about the whistleblowers, the seafood market, test kit and vaccine development in China, and publication of the first SARS-CoV-2 genome. I'll add them back into the story...

@Taimur_Laal Please learn the difference between an exponentially growing phenomena and static ones. Corona is growing st an exponential rate, the rest are not. Number of deaths doesn’t matter, they can surge and disrupt health care networks, etc. panic early and prevent more disruption/death

If you invest ~$200,000 ̶i̶n̶ ̶P̶a̶k̶ ̶d̶o̶l̶l̶a̶r̶ ̶b̶o̶n̶d̶ ̶ in getting an investor visa leading to immigration anywhere, you’d never have to read moronic tweets packaging childish political punditry as investment advice-you’d have better shit to do The risk is worth taking

Support anti war protests, but can such lame self deprecating condescension stop already? “Demanding” the safe return of a captured PoW when there was absolutely no evidence that he would’ve been denied a return, or that he was being kept in unsafe conditions/being mistreated

Most Sunnis aren’t chay like you, and happily wait. In many gatherings, they break fast with dates, take a quick break for prayers and when they return both can eat together. Instead of shitting on others you couldn’t wait 7 min for your “friends”
