I don't like being rude but they just keep following me around bugging me when I go into a furniture store. "I'm just browsing, thanks. I'll ask you if I have any questions," doesn't seem to do it. Know the magic thing to say? I have a lot of shopping to do and if I have to do it all with somebody hovering a few feet away trying to be helpful every 90 seconds, I am going to ...um... want to drink more beer than is entirely healthy or something.

I mean the ones who eat STRICTLY fruits & vegetables. I think those are vegans, right? Well, I learned in Biology class that it's dangerous to not have meats & proteins in your diet because you lose muscle mass.

When you yourselves are divided with "labels" of faith.
Should you not DROP the labels and bring your light of faith together.

Don't you think that all the confusing being expressed amongst yourselves is dispersing the light, instead of uniting it, to shine forth with brilliance upon those in the dark?

My Aunt was diagnosed with Alzheimer's a few months ago, which deemed her mentally unable to make decisions for herself and therefore invoked power of attorney to my cousin. My Cousin decided it was best for her to be "put" in a home care facility and was taken there directly from the doctor's office Now, she's not allowed to leave the residence without her (cousin) permission. She has not even back to her home to retrieve personal belongings. My ? How can she attain a second opinion on her medical evaluation? I have not been able to visit her in person yet (she is in OK, I am in CA) however, her mental state has never been at all vague or distracted during any phone conversation. She has never shown any signs of disorientation or confusion, but is in fact VERY aware of the current situation, so of course is unhappy. My cousin has also mentioned selling her house, and of course has full access to all bank accounts...etc.
Does anyone has any advise how I can help her?

And does it support religious views?

The philosopher Nick Bostrom investigated the possibility that we may be living in a simulation. A simplified version of his argument is:

i) It is possible that a civilization could create a computer simulation which contains individuals with artificial intelligence.

ii) Such a civilization would likely run many – say billions – of these simulations (just for fun; for research, etc.)

iii) A simulated individual inside the simulation wouldn’t know that it’s inside a simulation – it’s just going about its daily business in what it considers the “real world”.

Then the ultimate question is – if one accepts that points 1-2-3 are at least possible, which of the following is more likely?

a) We are the one civilization out there in the universe that will eventually develop the ability to run AI simulations? Or,
b) We are one of the billions of simulations that has run? (Remember point iii.)

Well, I just graduated high school and want to travel with my friend, who's also 17. I was wondering whether or not I can book a hotel room, especially if I'm going to pay in cash. I'm thinking there won't be a way for them to find out I'm 17. Am I right? Is this a good plan? If not, then what should I do?

I'm starting another short story and just wanted some opinions on the names that I've chosen for my main characters.

Chloe Maude Mackintosh and Carson Andrew James. Both age 15, they go to a private school, and the story starts when they start to "like" each other...

What do you think of these? (The middle names aren't of huge importance to the story or anything.)
