Just a simple person looking for intelligent discourse and engagement. And not trolling or flaming. 3 different people often use this account. And we don’t get excite about points. But replies to let each other know there is a good discourse going on.
We are taking a break from social and going on a couple week vacation. School’s coming kids and remember social media is an addiction. So check yourself before you turn into a socialist…lol.
I have developed an agenda of sorts. I am pro Kurd. And will do anything I can to bring attention to the hardship they face.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is Kratom? A friend of the family just died today. And that was the last thing he was using. Is it like K2? What type of high is it?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•My next door neighbor is trying to lose a 100lbs. But having real problems getting his breathing under control when exercising. Is there like a breathing exercise he can do everyday to improve?
12·9 days agoDoes it matter that he goes to the local library to do yoga to help him? He likes it because it pisses him off that these older people are doing it so easily and he can’t and makes him try harder. I was told if you do intervals of in through the nose out through the mouth 3 times normal breathing and I guess you could call it reps of breathing he does it till he gets to 30.

52·9 days agoHe just wants to do it slow. And the current goal is walk around the block. He has been lifting 3lbs and 500 reps per arm to try to get his breathing controlled. For some reason he got into holding his breath when he lifts like beer cases or kegs. He has no idea why he started it but says it’s very hard to quit. Currently he is walking back and forth on his back porch to start small. He would like to be able to walk or at the minimum fast walk 2 miles in three months.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I grew up in the age of the Cold War. And was taught to hate Russia. All the way up to the fall of the USSR. What the hell happened between then and now? Is their like a timeline or something?
31·11 days agoI was just tired of getting under the stupid desk’s knowing it wouldn’t mean shit. When I say hate Russia, I mean the government not the people…and our government for not getting shit together after WW2. My psychiatrist is Russian…which is kind of weird that her husband was Uzbeck and committed suicide. And got an Appt. with her Wed and don’t know what to say to be thoughtful do to well both of us growing up differently…sorry got on a soap box there. Much love and thanks for the reply.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why is suicide considered selfish? If your like 80 or something and rely on your family for care. Would it not be a burden off of them?
21·11 days agoI always kind of wonder about Hunter S Thompson. If he had something that would be a burden. The world lost a great mind that day.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can certain mods see "downvote or upvote brigading"? I don't care either way just wondering. Can any site see it?
31·11 days agoSo I just upvoted you. So an admin can see that but not a mod? Wouldn’t an Admin want a mod to suss it out first and just deal with the questionability of it?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do jobs still do "shadowing" to learn the skills before you apply like welding or carpentry or computers? Or is it too much of a hassle for the person you are "shadowing" along with the company?
4·12 days agoGuess I misspoke. I meant if I wanted to be a welder or computer person. Could I contact the company and ask to shadow a person so I can learn the trade before I see what I am getting myself into?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How come back in the day a person could download or pirate books till their hearts content, but one movie and your ISP would give you a DMCA notice? Why no DMCA with the books?
12·12 days agoI will ever regret using my sister in laws last name. Always had a VPN it’s just remarkable that now the majority use it so much they run commercials with Shaq of all people. I remember when they were free for the first 6 months and you had like 5 countries to choose from. But hey if it won’t get me ban I’ll take the best answer’s from my post’s and start a community. That way the new generation can learn and have respect for us old sea dogs.




Would you rather me ask why road signs are different shapes?
