No, not actually. But you can check my other comment, below, for a crumb more info. I have mostly walked away from this topic. I am getting myself and my son well. If the rest of t…

What she meane is that wellness is not a welcome topic in most circles, nor easily monetized. Everyone wants a new drug, literally or figuratively -- a quick fix, easy answer. No o…

Please note that "cure cancer" is in quotes. I am speaking from (bitter) firsthand experience about some other condition. I don't expect to ever get the Nobel Prize. I mostly get c…

You apparently have no fucking clue why some people come to the U.S. The overprivileged assumptions so many Americans make are just completely out of touch with what goes on in man…

There is also not much money in "curing cancer", unfortunately.

What do you mean by "recover"? In practical terms? Get another job. In emotional terms? Cry/vent/watch cathartic movies, etc. Anger is generally an acid which corrodes the vessel w…

Yeah, I know that. I am homeless and people have told me I should not admit that online, they would not hire me..blah blah. But most homeless were not born that way. It isn't a tra…

It would be better to provide support that makes the family successful rather than tearing it apart as our default approach.

Well, we need to stop trying to solve homelessness per se. We need to work on taking better care of people generally. That will shrink the numbers of homeless.

There is a lot of learning by asking questions, which works well guy to guy but there are serious barriers if you are female. I have repeatedly run into the fact that most men eith…

I had fantasies there would be videotape with legible audio of the first encounter in the parking lot and pics of the second encounter at the access road next to the parking lot. T…

Well, it does not sound like a very big picture goal, unless you are leaving something out. Without a big picture goal, "outstanding" success seems very unlikely. Take care.

On skim, I do not see any hard definition of the "outstanding success" you envisioned for Nickler. If you never defined it, you cannot achieve it or know if you have. What gets mea…

I don't know. I have a tendency to get noticd merely for being different. I have genuine concerns about ordinary, nonsecret activities of mine taking notice. But that concern is mo…

Funny, my concerns about the social climate here are rather different. But I suspect writing this type of article is probably not the way to fix things. When people feel attacked, …

I worked for a big company where security was a big thing. I had to have an ID badge to enter the building. My boss once admitted to requesting the logs to determine if people on t…

I actually just like the blog but thought I would try to pick one post to focus on. It is mostly pictures of wildlife in Antarctica, with very little in the way of commentary, not …
