I have a friend that grew up very poor and with a difficult family, where drug abuse was a constant issue. It went to a point where they were just living under one roof, but stopped communicating. He luckily moved out, managed to go to university and got out of that downwords spiral. His brother didn't. He's now a drug dealer with no vision for a different career.
I think it's very important for me to have that perspective. It's in a way humbling to see how much of a difference it makes to have a working family. In general I think this changes my view on society as a whole. You allways hear that some people have problems, but I allways thought that those people "just" have a hard childhood and are just normal people when they grow up and move out. But that shit leaves marks. I allways have to think about his brother who didn't get out of that circle. He will continue to have a very hard life.
I have never seen a setup like that personally, so it feels weird to me. But I feel like it would be hard to allways look up to your second screen, because that one wouldn't be on eye hight. And it sounds pretty anoying when you want to drag ans drop your windows by holding them an the top of your screen.
But I get that it has advantages like less space used. Probably mostly feels weird to me, because I don't know it :)
Forgot to buy groceries yesterday ans shops are closed today. So probably just pasta with pesto

I'm seeing a chindhood friend tomorow that I have't seen for 1.5 years. As kids we were best friends, but when we got older we kinda just stopped seeing each other that often. So realy looking forward to that!
The debate actually infuriated me. There was no real content. Just two people screaming at each other thet the other one sucks.
Harris did better than trump because she didn't lie, but she still didn't say anything usefull. Mostly she didn't even respond to his "arguments", wich is sad, because they were that easy to respond to. Instead she continued to say what she learned by heart before the debate and what her team tokd her to say.

Hello, we have been trying to reach you regarding your car's extendet warrenty
You are privacy focused and use apple? I think I have found your problem.
Bread is a life saver. If you don't have time to cook just eat some bread. Healthy (depends on the kind of bread) and you don't have to worry about beeing hungry an hour later.
Yea ofc there is allways a too big. But energy makes a lot more sense over a big area. Not in form of a big power plant, but in a big energy network. If it's sunny in one region and they make a lot more power than they can use and at the same time a different region has a power shortage, because it's a cloudy day it only makes sense to share the energy. The larger the skale of your network the more efficient is your energy production. Less recources get wasted.
what did your government do well in the near past?
In politics most people just critizise each other, but what did your local government actually do a good job on?
Mental illnes of former teacher
Happend 10 years ago.
When I was in 7th grade my teacher was late. So me and some other people sat at the computer and did dumb shit. Then one person has the idea to look for a weapon online shop. I tiped it in and the second I clicked one a website the teacher came in (yea I know fucking stupid, but I was a kid). He reacted realy strangely. He asked me if everything was OK and if I had problems at home and stuff like that. So realy extreme stuff for just a dumb kid googleing to much. But not at all judgy, more concerned. At the time I didn't think much of it.
Two years later he killed himself. Nobody saw it comming, because he always looked happy. Apparently he had depression and already had it for years. And after that it kicked in my head. Two years earlier he asked me those questions because that's what he felt. He was concerned that I felt what he felt and wanted to help me get the help he would have needed.
I still think of this regularly and it makes me realy sad. Mental illness is a bitch.
Do you regularly use trainsTrains?
How well build is the train network in your country? Do you use it regularly? Why or why not?
Personally I travel by train a lot and just couldn't do a lot of stuff if I could go by train. For example I recently moved for university and I would have a huge problem visiting my hometown if not by train.
