    • Having hand sanitizer in your everyday bag. I’ve been doing it way before the pandemic and it’s a quick and easy way to disinfect while you’re out and about and not near a restroom to wash your hands.

    • Want to get free food a couple of times a month? Just go on eventbrite and meetup and look up free events in your area. If you are in a relatively large city, chances are there are a ton of free events every week where you can just show up and get free food in exchange for a little socializing.



  • I just saw a video a couple of days ago about one of those children who was adopted by an American family sometime in the 70s. The family gave him up to foster care within 6 years like he was a toy that you could just throw away when you don’t want it anymore. The worst part is they didn’t file his paperwork correctly so he was never naturalized. When he tried to correct it as an adult, he was deported instead because the background check that was triggered found a previous conviction as a teen (broke into his abusive 3rd foster family’s house to get his things). He couldn’t assimilate back in Korea and ended up moving to Mexico because the culture was more familiar.


  • The only barrier to entry is creating a usb installer. Once you’re past that, there’s nothing more than basic computer knowledge to do what you need to do. By basic, I mean knowing how to use a computer, so you should be good. Just choose a user friendly distro like Mint and you won’t need to open the terminal at all unless something really bad happens.





  • Wait, you thought Egyptian restaurants don’t exist? Especially for a melting pot like the US, I assume the opposite, that there is always a food place that serves a particular cuisine from somewhere in the world.

    But to answer your question, and assuming by exotic, you mean anything that isn’t your standard fare American, European, Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese, or Japanese food, then I’ve had:

    • Ethiopian
    • Thai
    • Singaporean
    • Filipino
    • Taiwanese
    • Iraqi
    • Afghan
    • Indian
