So, I decided to look at mortality rates for countries that did and didn't lockdown. Obviously, there's more to it than mortality rates, but the idea that lockdowns save lives looks a little... uncertain? Using this site, I compiled a list of mortality rates among countries that did and did not lockdown. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality No lockdown: Belarus: 0.5% Guinea: ...

So, I talk to several people from the Philippines, some I have known for years and some I've met recently. People from all over the country all tell me the same thing as soon as the subject comes up; people are starving to death all over the Philippines. The government is not helping them, they won't be coming to their aid. I just recently saw a video on Youtube of Duterte basically telling ... Read the whole post

So, this is an old song (2000) and is one of the best metal songs I've ever heard. The lyrics are hard hitting and meaningful, but very raw which is why I love metal. This song comes from a place of deep pain and anguish which I can relate to maybe more now than when I was younger, but not really in the same ways. Since we're posting lyrics, I figured I would make it a doozy. This song played ... Read the whole post

If you are being harassed by some perv for nude photos of you or something like that, don't hesitate to report them. I hear it about the same people on here and no one apparently reports them. Report them! It's on their profile page as a small link under the "Send Friend Request" button. Don't let these people chase you off the site. Report them and let the admins deal with them. It's one ... Read the whole post

I would just like to give some props to this website for a minute. I have been coming here on and off for 7-8 years now and have met some great people a few of which I remain friends with to this day. I have tried many other dating sites and without question, Luvfree is the best one I've ever found and it's really not even close. The features here are great and there are enough good people here ... Read the whole post

I was just reminded of a couple things while talking with a new friend here that I find to be strange about this online world of ours and I wonder if it's really good for people. The first thing is that what is considered to be objectively rude behavior in real life is considered perfectly acceptable online. For example, if you walk up to someone in public and talk with them, they will ... Read the whole post

I was recently reminded over the last week or so of one of the ways of the world today that is interesting, but also extremely unfortunate and extremely sad. Whether you're talking about people that are local or an ocean away, there really doesn't seem to be all that much difference. People, for seemingly several reasons, do not know when they are being told the truth and when they are being lied ... Read the whole post

So, almost every day, I take a 45-60 minute walk around my neighborhood for exercise and occasionally, someone will stop and ask me for directions somewhere. Now, most of the time, I give people correct directions with no problem; not so today. :( A little backstory; I've lived in this neighborhood for most of my life and ever since I've been here and started paying attention to street signs, ...

I have been coming to this site on and off for about seven years now and have had the pleasure of knowing a handful of genuinely good, honest and understanding people. I talked about this a little in my (way too long) rambling post earlier, but I want to talk about something a little more specific this time; honesty. Whether we're talking about the person you're talking to, the things they put on ... Read the whole post

I've not typed a blog post before and have no idea what to say specifically, so I'll just do some random thoughts about this site or otherwise. - I really hate aphids. You know, those little parasitic plant suckers that kill plants you actually like? I enjoy growing alpine strawberries and man do they love to suck on those things. Really ruined my enthusiasm, but then I discovered biological ... Read the whole post
