We certainly do, but you wouldn't catch me voting for that Russian stooge after everything that went down in 2016.

It is all over everything right now. It's giving me PTSD from 2016. Are we voting Jill Stein again?

That's sad in 33 years of pratice the best testimony he has ever gotten from a client is just random rambaling.

I'm probably weird but oatmeal raisin cookies are dank and I would pick them over chocolate chips cookies 90 percent of the time.

I get that it is honestly hard to read stuff you just don't connect with or find interesting on some level. I absolutely loved the odyssey and huck finn. I can completely understand people not getting on board with Shakespeare especially when you're younger.

I've definitely gone back in red some of the really popular books back when I was in high school because I can appreciate them more now. However, I still read a ton of fantasy novels and stuff like that which I find more interesting then most things I read back then.

I still do that myself I'll read a whole page and then realize I have zoned out the entire time and remember nothing. Usually that happens when I'm not as invested in the material. I'm current reading the wheel of times series and am enjoying it. However it has it's boring or just overly detailed areas that I find myself zoning out more in.

Oh as a teenager reading those books I definitely didn't enjoy them as much as I do now as an adult. As an adult I 100 percent enjoy reading more compared to my younger years but I still found some of those story's very compelling.

ADHD can be a pain in the ass especially when you are being forced to perform in an environment that is basically your worst enemy. I don't think standardized testing shows who's smart and who isn't. It shows who's better at memorization and concentration maybe. I also hated word counts as well and that why I also liked scientific writing better because it's to the point and cuts out all the fluff. I love reading the fluff now but not into writing it myself.

Oh okay I didn't realize all I had Todo was overthrow a government with the most powerful military in the world and just aspire a little harder.

Thanks so much for that insightful comment I should be able to get this all done by Wednesday. Thanks for the bullet proof plan.

I vote in the primaries, I vote in every election, I try my best to get everybody around me to vote as well. I'm trying to work within the system so we can try to change it for the better while we still can.

The books usually assigned in school are literary classics. Such as The Giver, Tuesday's with Morrie, the grapes of wrath, the adventures of huckleberry finn, the odyssey, of mice and men, Moby dick, the importance of being Ernest, death of a salesman, and I could keep going. You are telling me those books are shitty? I don't think the books are the problem.
