Is it really that difficult to have enough supplies just for 72 hours? You don't even need any food for that short of a time, and you only really would need, what, 2 liters per person? Personally I drink a lot more than 1 liter of water per day, but in a crisis situation you're gonna ration it

It could also be built-up stress or a variety of other disorders, or a culmination of things

The ranking goes as follows

  1. El Salvador
  2. Cuba
  3. Rwanda
  4. Turkmenistan
  5. USA

Notably, all the 4 countries above the US have less than 1/10 the total amount of prisoners that the US does

Probably utility and price?

You gotta emphasize how normal and approachable you are. A true one of the people

Some people just have unusual features

Ooh, those are such cool topics though!

Burnt ou-!

Oh, that too!

You say that but I've heard concerningly many people say that there is no point in teaching everyone stuff like basic math because chances are they won't use it

Frankly, in my experience the social media has been unreasonably optimistic

Most of the struggles and worries come from real-life expriences

While you're right, it's missing the forest for the trees. It's just quippy way of saying "takes care of one's hygiene"

But yes, it's mostly a common myth that you have to shower every day, ideally do what feels right/works for you to have a good hygiene

You know, I think it's interesting how this used to be considered the nutjob's territory just a bit over 10 years ago. And now, at least for the USA, this might be the thing that keeps you out of jail.

It's kinda frightening
