Moderation if it's an issue for you or just disconnect completely and break the habit

no retirement in the woods necessary, spring is coming up replace social media/online conversation with outdoor activities on the weekends and take up new hobbies like cooking or baking or something creative with your hands

a couple weeks and the habit is replaced with your new activity and if that new activity is positive and productive you'll feel better in a short amount of time and some dedication


For sure buddy. Planning on getting out this spring/summer when the snow melts enough in the mountains.

Camping is fun, I also do wood working in my spare time, usually with NPR or a podcast playing in the background. lol.

more meaningful would be trade deficit divided by gdp, to factor out the impact of gdp growth.

say the trade deficit remains steady as a percentage of the gdp, but the gdp itself grows by 5% - then a naive estimate is that the trade deficit would grow by about 5% as well.

True, but.... imports vs exports for dummies

Officials will no longer be required to publicly disclose the number of civilians killed in airstrikes against terrorist targets due to a new executive order from President Trump https://cnn.it/2C7ZrOy

Democrats have vowed to boycott Fox News and refuse to hold a primary debate on the network this election unlike every other year
Trump responded and threatened boycotting liberal media outlets for general election debates.

Does anyone else feel like just bowing out of the political chat? Both sides are full of shit and its just getting old.

I wish I made better choices earlier in life so I could have retired at 40, moved to a cabin in the woods.


I enjoy debate in and of itself. PaRD is the best place to find that enjoyment on short notice.

I've been in and out of this forum for over a decade, and my best advice is to NOT allow this forum to shape your view on political chat.

PaRD is cancer. And that's the reason we're all here. You just can't shake it.
