Have you tried contacting them with questions about issues that concern you?

One side is fearful while the other is merely worried. Does that feel like loaded language to anybody else or am I being paranoid about subconscious manipulation by the media?

For those, like me, who had never heard of BRICS before this article.

BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. Originally identified to highlight investment opportunities,[1] the grouping evolved into a cohesive geopolitical bloc, with their governments meeting annually at formal summits and coordinating multilateral policies since 2009.

Some refrigerators can dispense cold filtered water.

The general take away is “Surveillance is oppression and it is the responsibility of the people to stand up against oppression”.

A few other quotes I like that fit the theme.

“People shouldn’t be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.”

— V (V for Vendetta)

“Without privacy, you can’t have anything for yourself. Saying you don’t care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.”

Am I expected to pay or be paid the $800?

I’ve got my Plex server running on an Intel NUC 8 with 2 USB 2TB solid state drives serving as local storage for my media.

One method was the use of candle clocks.

I wonder if mRNA vaccine treatment for cancer is what they are referencing.

From what I was able to understand (and maybe somebody can correct anything I’ve gotten wrong), the “vaccine” is tailored on a per-individual basis to target key protein markers of a petients particular cancer. This allows the body to identify and start to attack the cancer where previously the immune system would not be able to tell the difference between healthy and cancerous cells.

I wasn’t sure about the build up, but you nailed it.

OMG! IT’S HAPPENING! My natural talents, which I have been diligently practicing and honing my entire life are finally given a chance to be properly recognized!

It sounds like you are describing depression. Here are some things that help me when I get to feeling like this. It’s not easy to do when battling with low energy and a lack of motivation, but they help.

• Do more outdoor activities. Normally in the form of walks, or biking to nearby locations instead of driving.

• Drink more water. Basically, I just have a glass of water before drinking anything else.

• Eat better. Nothing too extreme, I make an effort to prepare more foods at home and include more vegetables.

• Change things. I’m not talking about a life change. Rearrange furniture, put up some different wall art, change your lighting, swap out the background images on your computers and / or mobile devices, etc.

• Spend time with your thoughts. I would try to spend about 15 minutes to an hour each day sitting in silence, with no distractions. I don’t force any thoughts. I just wait to see what bubbles to the surface. It usually helps me identify problem areas that I need to focus on.

It is also possible that you have started down a life path that you feel you are “supposed” to pursue and not necessarily a path that you want to pursue.

It could also be that you are burned out between school, work, and social obligations. Making more time for yourself or taking some time off, if that is an option, might help.

I think it would depend on the subject matter.

When all your stress and worries melt away.

Without knowing where you are, what type of person you are, or what type of person your date is, I’m gonna make a generic suggestion of some sort of class (cooking, pottery, wood turning, stained glass, painting, etc) that look interesting. Something that the two of you can learn together and have fun with.

Ah yes. He was really on fire back in the day. Got a lot of attention for a while and then, almost overnight, it was like he and his most devoted fans were just gone from this world.
