I'm currently withdrawing from a psychiatric medication. In my cohort people take their lives frequently, the pain is so bad. Many of us are finding relief in CBD oil and medical m…

In 2017 I returned to America from living overseas. My mom passed away early in the year and I wanted nothing to do with shopping for a car, much less driving a car. So I just took…

I think you're right. If they would have kept MagSafe they could have kept the HDMI port on the other side. But then the MBP wouldn't have been symmetrical. That seems to be the cu…

Truly in its infancy. The phrase I always use when in a grocery store is whether I'm purchasing things that are "recognizably food". Vegetables, fruits, meat all remind you of thei…
