It’s my new effort to drop to 83.5kgs, but will I be successful? Let’s see! The program is simple: burn enough calories by doing enough exercise every day. Then try not to overconsume the other times. So to lose 3kgs, I need to burn 23700 calories more than I consume over a month. That’s about…
Income Tax is not a fine. It may not be fine, different countries take different approaches on it. BUT despite what many libertarians think, they have their privileges to think like they do because society exists. Despite what socialists think, they create their wealth because individual endeavor exists. Denying society exists or exalting it are…
Well, it’s a complicated question with a complicated answer. Photographers since the invention of photography have, like many areas of human activity, encompassed the spectrum from rank amateur (or buff) to professional. In fact, without the amateurs’ involvement, there probably wouldn’t have been a photography industry. Do many people make their living in the photography…
It was a photograph a few years ago that made me realize I couldn’t be the size of a house any more, as my father might have put it. I was 106kg at the time. I did NOT look good. I did not feel good either. I did not have a healthy relationship with my…
Yes, I wear them. I need to. So I used to hide them as I was embarrassed. Now I don’t care. I actually think I make them look good! In the summer, it was just too hot to wear them under pants. So I started wearing them like exercise tights, under short pants. The compression…

Talk about exposing yourself as a victim! “Yes, we’ll help you! Yes, we’ll get your money back!” I wonder! Of course, one follower on FB is a huge endorsement. Seriously? Talk about a large ‘X’ marks the spot, sucker! From an Ad seen on FB.
I just think money raised by a charitable status organization should be used for the greater good of members, not the entitled enrichment of individuals. I didn’t say ‘taxed’, I said ‘taxable’, BTW. Creating a tax code that incentivizes raising money for such work should deincentivize those seeking to abuse the power of a tax-free…
I don’t often edit articles that others have written. But occasionally, I’m called to do this. As a non-professional editor, it’s actually a task I loathe for a variety of reasons: it’s time-consuming, focuses on things wrong, the advice’s easily ignored so it’s often futile.
