  • No, they cannot. I hope someone gives you a more in depth answer because I’m very sleepy. Socially, just because a state votes red doesn’t mean that everyone there is awful. It would not be fair to those citizens.

    I do believe that texas has the right to secede. It won’t happen, but it was part of the bargin to rejoin after the Civil War.



  • Education is the obvious fix, but at least in America, the idiots are trying to destroy it. If people learned critical thinking, almost everything else would fall into place. If we stopped reinforcing learned helplessness and made people practice logic and learn consequences, society would see a huge benefit. People need to be held accountable for their ignorance. Otherwise, they won’t learn. Those who refuse to learn should rightfully be shunned, because they’re the biggest propaganda weapon out there.

    Cognitive dissonance is another major reason for idiocracy. The MAGAts are so blatant about their love for it. “Wokeness” is healing from cognitive dissonance, which they’ve labeled as a virus.

    I’m sympathetic and offer to help someone if they’re being a bit stupid (all of us have our moments), but if they refuse, that’s where they should be held accountable.

    My partner and I always use condoms, but it is nice knowing where I’m at in my cycle. It helps to know how paranoid I should be since I live in a red state.

    I don’t trust one method of birth control. We’ve talked about him getting a vasectomy, and I’ll probably be getting a microscope.














  • Medicine does not prolong the healing process. The only “beneficial” side effect is the fever, but there isn’t hard evidence that it’s better or worse to bring down a fever (unless you hit 102°F or higher). If you choose to let your body do its thing and burn down the house, just avoid acetaminophen (Tylenol).

    Colds often take up to a week or more to pass, so there’s a chance that you won’t be better in 3 days.

    Vitamin C and vitamin D3 are also good for your immune system.
