    If only all these countries that subscribe so deeply to copyright law could do the same for taxing the rich.

    If you model honoring your and others emotions and needs (primarily but demonstrating them for yourself to your son, and radiating outwards to everyone else, including him), he will be far better off than everyone else people-pleasing and not understanding how to do right by themselves.

    Do a rabbit hole search today looking at things like boundaries, boundary areas, core values/principles, emotional inteligence and also emotional immaturity.

    Understand that when we feel reactive and intensly in response to various situations, others, places, and time etc there is often a violation or an inadequacy in terms of needs being fulfilled and boundaries existing or being properly enforced to ensure safety and equilibrium. When you feel something or someone else feels something like this, try to understand what led to that state and what it might say about their needs being met or their values being upheld that the current situation interferes with and work to develop practical boundaries that reasonably address the areas and values that are implicated

    This stuff will blow your mind when you start being able to not unsee it playing out day to day in many of life's personal and others personal situations

    So a my building charged me for a clogged toilet repair that turned into a total replacement.

    Its listed as a plumbing damage charge, I don't believe they have a basis to charge for that. What should I do?

    Also my insurance company interestingly didnt renew my tenant insurance policy ive had fot years with no change.

    Should I ask them to provide the documented charge and consider filing a claim with my insurance seeing as they're dropping me anyway? Should I ensure I have a new policy before I file that claim

    If people can afford to travel to Norway, this shouldn't be a problem. The locals shouldn't have to bear the brunt of capitalism and neoliberalism like they do everywhere else

    Lanolin is a fantastic and inexpensvie moisturizer and balm for wherever on your body is chapped and needs to be protected and have its moisture restored. It doesn't make your body addicted to it and it just works as long as you wet the area with water and apply immediatey after.

    My lips used to be a warzone, particularly in the winter but not anymore with lanolin. Its seriously better than chapstick, Burts Bees, Nivea, Carmex, whatever other stuff that needs to advertise or rely on its ubiquity to persuade you its what you should use for your body
