I Don't Feed Trolls

PINNED

If you think that everyone here in SW or in any social media site are just people "passing the time", sharing their thoughts and having some fun, think again... Long gone are the days when internet trolls were simply bored, annoying teenage...

Loving the CBC Olympic coverage... 🇨🇦

Not sure this time around, but in previous Olympics I've noticed that in the USA they barely show prime-time "summaries" of the Olympics and only show live events where the Americans have a shot at winning medals... Everything else is ...

don't know how to feel about this...

OMG, my ex (we divorced over 20 years ago) is texting me saying how happy she was when we were together, how unique and special I was/am, etc... She's on a emotional roll... (she remarried soon after we divorced...) Says she wished to go back in...

It's a bit of a pattern...

I could have given you so much happiness. But you thought I wasn't worth your time. Look at you now, crying in the dark, wondering how you got it so wrong. I wonder that too. It's too late now. No do-overs. Everybody lost. Pity.

Burned my finger while cooking. Advise to ease pain?

I thoughtlessly grabbed the lid of a thing I was cooking in the oven (400F) and burned the index finger of my left hand and a little bit of my thumb too. Having my finger in ice cold water eases the pain completely, but almost as soon as I take my fi...

Françoise Hardy 1966

I like photos that capture not just a face or an image, but a whole feel. A snapshot of a moment that is capable to take us to a different place and time.

Blue Lives Matter

While Trump supporters mourn the death of the "patriot" Air Force veteran who was shot while committing a crime, they are all silent about the Capitol police officer killed by Trump supporters as he was performing his duty to upheld law and...

He's having a mental breakdown... [I Like the Usa]

I sincerely think that Trump will have to be escorted out of the White House in a straitjacket. I think he really believes his "alternative truths". Oh BTW, as per Fox News Biden has over 75 million votes (vs 70 million for Trump) 🇺🇸...

This is Joe Biden

Enough said. 🇺🇸

There is this attempt to pitch the Republican party as the “Law and Order Party”, with the implication that Democrats are all in favor of full-blown riots, anarchy and letting everyone out of jails. In fact, the choice is between two styles of “Law a...

So what happene with LittleEvilOne...?

I logged to SW briefly earlier today and there was some drama going on, with LittleEvilOne saying something along the lines of "I'm going to do something and I'll get banned but I don't care". Now I see she was indeed "s...

I Hate Running Out Of Toilet Paper

So here's an interesting article explaining the toilet paper shortage. Makes perfect sense to me ("It isn’t really about hoarding") Summary: domestic toilet paper sold at grocery stores (meant for home use) is different (and made at d...

I Have Something To Say About Coronavirus / Covid19

I'm very envious of people who are "bored" with the lockout. Personally I'm entertaining myself thinking how life will change 2 months from now, when I'm no longer able to pay my bills... 🙃

Question for the straight or bi women here... Do you prefer:

Poll See Poll Options

I always thought women preferred #1 but I read an article the other day and it got me thinking. It said: (Quote) So maybe I had it wrong (Full art...

I Have Something To Say About Coronavirus / Covid19

Now that people are supposed to wear face masks, but nothing "medical grade", it's time for DIY stuff... I'm not into crafts, so I'm kind of shocked this turned out OK.. The fabric is from an old worn-out T-shirt I hadn'...

I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

There is a lot of complaining about governments "not being prepared" for the pandemic (not just the US, but the UK, Italy, Spain, etc.). But frankly, were WE prepared for the pandemic? Did WE have tons of hand sanitizer, face masks and toil...

I like solitude, I live alone and I like my privacy. Yet, I can't deny feeling lonely now and then... These are excerpts (edited for clarity) of an interesting article by Jill Lepore (who quotes Vivek Murthy, John Cacioppo and others): "The...

I Am Tired Of The Lies

I keep seeing posts that seem posted by bots... Lofty, predictable, obvious and ultimately pointless thoughts... Things like: - "I hate bullying, I don't think people should be bullied blah blah blah..." - "I think domestic viole...

I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

So now that it's all "America 1st" and Trump has spent the last 3 years antagonizing and berating USA's allies, guess who's filling the vacuum left by the isolationist ex-superpower...? China and Russia of course. Case in poi...

I Have Something To Say About Coronavirus / Covid19

Sobering news... And this people WERE taking social distancing measures at the time... "Choir practice turns fatal. Airborne coronavirus strongly suspected" https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-03-29/coronavirus-choir-outbreak

Question for older British people here...

Serious question: If you grew up in the UK in the 60s and 70s, how did the schools there balanced the rabid anti-drug rhetoric with the patriotic pride of a British Empire who forced drugs down the throat of China in the 19th century Opium Wars? I do...

Meet pioneer gospel singer and bad-ass guitarist, inspiration to Elvis, Chuck Berry and many other early Rock & Roll stars, SISTER ROSETTA THARPE, the "Godmother of Rock & Roll" 1-hour documentary:

I Am Tired Of The Lies

(Quote) Link to the article re 'We [BBC] recently tracked how a misleading post from someone's "uncle with a master's degree" went viral. ' https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-51931394 Original article source: So...

Have you ever been able to change someone's mind on any subject?

Poll See Poll Options

I don't think I ever had, now that I think about it. Reportedly, people's beliefs are rooted in "gut feelings", and people only us...

Why does EVERYTHING has to be a conspiracy?

It's a virus, people. Viruses exist in *nature*. Viruses are know to jump from species to species from time to time. It's not rocket science. I know you feel cool telling us these "secrets" only a few chosen know. I know it feels ...
