Anyone else see the shit youngexec posts on IG? Fuckin guy thinks he knows everything and that it all has to do with the government, like bro nice conspiracies.
icedI drove over a chipmunk on my driveway n feel bad :(. Also some chick I sit near through lectures and shit is starting to get real anti semetic on me
Honestly the chipmunk stories are the bread and butter of NSG right now. Please continue with the experiences I’m loving it haha
iFlipPlease be specific, rather than tossing out broad generalizations. As I see it, Reagan ended the Cold War without having the entire world explode, as most people alive at the time thought it would (again, ask your parents). 16 million new jobs were created under Reagan. The Star Wars program, built under Reagan, was instrumental later in the Gulf War. Reagan's economic policy (Reaganomics) and tax reform have proven to be some of the most effective economic reforms our country has seen.
The above are just a few of the "concrete" things Reagan accomplished and put into place. Less obvious are the benefits of his "Peace through Strength" campaign, where he significantly boosted the military. It is impossible to accurately say how much this has benefitted our country. How many wars might have started? How many times might the US have been attacked? As I said, it's impossible to say.
All you have done is parrot the headlines of the media. It is abundantly clear that you have no knowledge of history, of the world at large, or of US politics and policy, let alone global politics and policies. You're quick to condemn and cast blame without understanding how things work within the global arena. Unfortunately your vote (if you're 18) has as much weight as everyone else's. This is the price we pay for Democracy, and I'll accept it, just not happily.
Reagan's expansion of the War on Drugs is pretty fucked but that definitely doesn't discredit the other things he did in his presidency. Just throwing my two cents in there.
milk_manOh that age!! Yeah you're probably right. My age and a year or maybe two younger aren't too terrible
Yah I'm very optimistic about our generation but the one below us growing up with social media and technology from birth will be interesting

Me too except it was a squirrel, then later on that same bike ride I swear I was shot at. (Unintentionally)
I think I ranted about that day when rant about whatever began.
I've recently came out as a trans woman but I cope with the negativity and judgements through drinking too much. I never chose this but I have came to accept it yet people act like I have a choice. The world can be a cruel place.

I also ran over a squirrel but that one was worse cause it was in the middle of campus when it was pretty busy and these girls started screaming because the squirrel was twitching pretty hard on the ground and they kept telling me to run it over again or stomp on it but I figured I should give it a chance to recover rather than just curb stomping the little guy.

Lol. Anyone younger is still physically immature and has a long time to develop their brain. Technology keeps changing but the idea is nothing new. Some people have are always worried more about people having access to information but that position hasn't really come out on top when I look back at history. Some people still think the world will go to hell if all the kids get their own books.

I'm not worried about the access of infinite knowledge. That is definitely a good thing. I'm more so worried about the impact of social media on people's mental health which is hard to quantify but hopefully will end up fine as more research is done on mental health.

Mental health has always been massively ignored/overlooked in this country. Sucks.
I'm also pretty interested to see what effects it has with all the instant gratification and constant stream of attention.

Yeah but that stuff is always changing and people are trying to improve public health. Seems like overall public health, including mental health, is getting better. People used to think that TV would ruin my generation. Still feeling optimistic about the kids even if they are playing with toys that I don't understand.
I think we've already seen a lot of the effects of instant gratification with the whole processed food thing and how that has affected things like obesity but even with that we still have overall better public health than my grandparents generation.

Holy shit! You know what public health is. I'm a public health major....good to see that people actually know what we do for once lol.
Yeah we have made massive strides in the field of public health....big things have happened, and big things are coming down the tube here. Mental health issues have come a long way, but they got a good ways to go too.
Fast food fucked the US. We love our quick fixes so I'm also interested to see how that all plays in in social media and everything else.
DayManHonestly fuck squirrels though they're assholes.
Yeah. The little bastards sit in the walnut trees above my driveway and cover my car in bits of nuts and shit. Its a pain in the ass to clean. I can't wait to live somewhere where its legal to shoot the little fucks.
One of my coworkers did a backflip off the counter and toot he landing to his head. He busted above his eyebrow open. It was super gnarly, blood everywhere. What a way to start my shift.

My body is weird, it likes to hurt in different areas every few days leading me to believe I have some serious disease each time, or one that causes all the pains at once.
Love being a bit of a hypochondriac with anxiety too.

Profahoben_212Same....ive been having random pain in my kidney. Girlfriend calls me a hypochondriac all the time
Im having pain or was earlier like right above where you'd usually get a cramp on the left running. Then I get pain in my side sometime, lower stomach, hands, the other day it hurt to push on my sides like right below both my armpits. I've always had the weird problems in my family, asthma, severe pollen allergies, I also have the concern of the beetus but my mom insists not since I got tested before once....once

Other news is that its gonna get down to 22F up in the mountains tonight. Its close, so close. Almost snow making weather, and i wouldnt mind being able to ski mid-end october of mama nature helps us out.
Titus69Interesting, my friends off weed for a little and has been vaping instead, now he'll smoke cigs...kinda reversed if you ask me
I know this douche up here who posted this long tirade on Facebook about how he no longer drinks or smokes weed because he is sick of his friendships being based on substance abuse. Less than a week after he posted it I saw him at the bar so fucking high on coke he could barely speak and asked me if I wanted to buy some blow or pills. Because that shit is way better for your health and relationships than weed and beer...

lol funny you mentioned coke now..
it was just a Snapchat and he said he bummed some puffs off someone's, but he just uses his vape instead of pot for now. It's not a juul tho, he blows clouds.
