I'm sure you can think of a few reasons if you consider it.
Most are in to get away from their native location or to get money for school/GI Bill, not because the idea of military is more appealing than being a civilian.
This could be because of increased migration into the US and a billion other reasons that have nothing to do with nationalism.
>Also, unlike the capitalist and professional classes, the nationalists are often OK with strong safety nets, as long as these benefits are limited to their tribe. They are really neither conservative or liberal. There are other political dimensions involved.
Agreed
I was not saying other mp3 players were more expensive than ipods. I could have been more clear there. Mp3 Players were more expensive than CD Players thus adoption was slow in the beginning, but the popularity of the ipod changed the mindset surrounding digital media players in general.
Once the ipod exploded in popularity many more mp3 players were sold to those who couldn't afford apple prices.
The previous poster was saying that EVERY kid had an mp3 player before ipods blew up where the opposite is true.
I enjoy some personality thrown into technical writing. Most of it is so soulless.
What if you remember your trauma but it doesn't effect you negatively and you are still easily addicted.
There are many ways to be addicted and not all of them are trauma related. Modern psychology relies heavily on diagnosing trauma, and connecting trauma to existing behavioral issues because it is useful.
We've got Tiktokers thinking they all have undiagnosed trauma.
CBD has been legal for a while and is completely different than THC products so it shouldn't be compared.
Stating Delta-9 is legal, not Delta-8, is not that big of a difference. If you think it is, you should talk about why it matters because your attitude obviously hasn't worked thus far for dealing with people who just don't understand. Maybe, you're not concerned with people understanding as much as you state.
They're the same as they have always been. I've been reading the Onion for over 2 decades.
Thanks for the content!
In interpersonal relationships it is better to be authentic, but I don't believe maximizing for authenticity has much value in business.
No one feels the good parts of smoking before they start and most people find the smell unappealing.
>Meanwhile, a smoker grew up without caring about the health damages and they consider it fine to smoke and the cost is acceptable for the "good" a cigarette can provide.
I'm not saying you're alluding to this but just to be clear, this is who a smoker develops into, the person was not some sort of pre-smoker who's dispositioned to like things that are bad for their health which would allow them to tolerate the smell. The tolerance is built.
A cigarette with coffee in the morning is untouchable.
My rule for myself when I quit was I can only smoke on vacations, so I still look forward to that combination in the future.
