It could go one of many ways. 1. Donald Trump is elected president. 1a. Stock market crashes and people line up at the borders to leave. 1b. Trump says something stupid and world war 3 starts. 1c. Trump finds out that he can’t actually do anything that he wants to do. Gets super upset and…More

Don’t not vote because you don’t agree with either candidate. Yes, its not ideal that we have to choose between two candidates that we don’t agree with. But not voting won’t change that. What will change that is voting in this election. Not only for the presidential candidates but also for all the other races…More

She’s awful and she’s the best candidate for president. She lies and changes her opinion based on what is popular. She takes money from dictators. She (and her husband) charge for speeches to non-profit organizations. She’s not only the best of the two options. She is the best option. She knows how to play the…More

He doesn’t think critically. He doesn’t read. He doesn’t learn. He shits on the scientific method. He doesn’t take into account the last 500 years of progress in problem solving. Electing him is a vote for the dark ages of reasoning. He’ll return us to the day of religious domination of society. Except, instead of…More

I’ll be voting for HRC. But. People are much too confident that she will win. The last year is full of examples of the public underestimating the support for DT.

Otherwise you’ll get stuck in the trap of “I’ll just keep trying”. That leads to 0 improvement. 1. Set a concrete target. 2. Set a concrete timeframe to reach that target. 3. Identify clear activities to do that should help you reach that target. If you have not reached the target by the end of…More

Its tempting to let yourself get caught up in your own self-perpetuating “spin zone”. On the flip side, there are ideas that nobody thinks are good so how can you tell if you should keep pushing or find something different? This can apply to anything from business ideas to career changes or writing. Of course,…More

I, as many of you, tend to budget by feel. I know more or less how much I should spend on one dinner or how often I should buy new things or how much I should spend in a night out. This tends to lead to me not spending a ridiculous amount of money but…More

We’re going to live in an interesting time. What happens when everyone knows everything? Is that better or worse than we are now? Sure, if the government knows everything about us thats bad. Because then the government can 100% enforce regulations that are not 100% correct. Like Marijuana use. But, thats only bad if we…More
