I just watched Netflix's Trainwreck Woodstock festival last night. I saw Kid Rock help turn a fun festival into chaos by demanding plastic bottles be thrown in protest of high cost. Ahole could have said, "Hey Promoters, get us some water or we're leaving and you're paying everyone back!

The root of the word courage is cor โ the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage had a very different definition than it does today. Courage originally meant "To speak one's mind by telling all one's heart."Feb 14, 2019

Everytime I make a pro Newsome comment I get some crap about the homeless or LGBT community. I'm beginning to think anti Newsome MAGAS, posing as anything but, are posting in order to put down Newsome, who likes the homeless and LGBTs far better then any Republican and many Democrats. Crazy.

Not sure why people defend camps instead of advocating for shelters. Perhaps if we started listing humans as animals rather the God's children, we'll give the homeless the homes they really could use. Not all, because many are insane, drug abusers, or criminals. They will need help......

Using the word "you" in an argument often triggers defensiveness because it sounds accusatory and places blame. Instead, use "I" statements, such as "I feel frustrated when...".
