In a polarized atmoshere such as this one, it would be attractive to block out all users with opposing views and then post irresponsible rhetoric to further one's own cause. To what extent do you think this is happening in Gender Studies?
The benefit seems obvious enough. But what harm can it do?

These are toxic, abusive, anti-social people. Some women even brag about the fact that they are dating a bad boy. This is not something to brag about... its something to be ashamed of.

Your thoughts?

In the dream i met 2 friends in a parking lot. Me & 1 other friend left our cars in the lot, in a good area of town, the 3rd drove us to go eat to plan a trip. After he dropped us back off in the lot, my car had been broken into & the only thing missing was the steering column of the car. Steering wheel, whole column were just gone, no broken window or anything. This is the main thing I remember. What could this mean?

I work in a bookstore and the vast majority of people who buy anything related to nursing study guides are Phillipino. I never really noticed the phenomenon until I went to the hospital for a sinus infection and realized that almost all of the nurses in the hospital were also Phillipino. Why is this?

I watched a documentary last night about Dennis Rader the "B.T.K" serial killer, and i just cant get into my head how evil some people are. I think i'm losing faith in humanity.

I think it must be very hard for the present celebs to dumb down their style of living for issues that may not concern them at this moment in time.

What would I do? Well basically I'm not someone who hankers after the best of everything so yes I would become greener and have an eco friendly house built somewhere overlooking the sea.

So what would you do enjoy your wealth and be dammed or think of the future of the planet and it's inhabitants?

I am a business major and right now I have a marketing internship where I am learning nothing. I am determined to bring my GPA up to a 3.0 but I don't know if it is possible with only 2 semesters left. I also feel like I don't have any real friends and I thought that in college, you were supposed to make friends that lasted a lifetime. I also feel like I haven't retained much knowledge and I am just worried because maybe I'm not cut out for the business world. I want to make my last year of college the best. Please offer suggestions, I really need your help, I don't want to keep failing at life. I want to be the happy care free girl that I used to be, I need to find her again. Thanks!

I had an Aunt who I was never close with and never saw, really. Then I had a dream with her in it, we were sitting in an enormous room, cross legged on cushions, it was a beautiful room, very calm and peaceful, hung with amazing soft tapestries, the floor covered in lush plump pillows. She was sitting next to me, and she was really really afraid, but I felt calm. She whimpered to me... "Where is God, where is God?"
And I felt so calm and warm inside and I said to her, "He's right beside you."
The dream suddenly ended. Two days later my dad told me she had died. She hadn't been ill or anything before, had just had a sudden heart attack. What does this all mean?

I have this evil mastermind classmate and I don't get how he's so good at scheming plans for his enemy, a certain class officer in our class who takes advantage of power, last year he started some sort of rebellion against him and answered back whatever he said with "SHUT UP (NAME)!" and lots of other things like launching campaigns for his impeachment and uploading videos on Youtube and even convincing his friends to go against that guy! How is this guy so clever at the same time so charismatic?, I admit that I am also an evil schemer but my schemes compared to his are trash, I only have around 5 people who I can get to do stuff for me but in his case he can convince anyone in the class to work with him and them not really know what they are doing for him already! This year that certain class officer is now afraid of this evil mastermind and now he offered him a truce and is acting like a friend to them while that poor bossy idiot thinks it's real friendship...

I don't get it how?...

Some people can't sleep with any noise or light in the background while others are the complete opposite. What is it that cause us to be one way or the other?

Do you have a successful way to motivate yourself to get chores/work done early?

I've always had problems remembering things the best way I have to remember is to repeat verbally or do the task over and over manually. some say it is just a different way of learning. Some people just hear something once and have it right away . Where others like me need repetitiveness. But since I hit 50 its worse a friend says it could be menopause she recalls having similar problem.

Last night I dreamt that I had the power to heal and that I brought my Grandma back from the dead. She actually died early this year! It was influenced by that tv show "Heroes" currently my favourite. But does it have any deeper relevance?

What do you think what comes after life, after you die? I hope some people come up with interesting theories about this, and if you think this question is interesting, don't forget to star it :)
