That hamburgers were called "handburgers" because you hold them with your hand when you eat.

Homeless people aren't a public transport problem even if homelessness can become visible in public transport systems. Delays, crowded and constructions are common in other forms of transport as well.

That individual health can be discussed separately from societal conditions such as what the market offers, salary levels, pollution, transport system, working hours, labour market, insurance system et cetera. "If you want to be healthy it is just your own individual responsibility to purchase healthy commercial products and services".

The time when when you could trust the US to honour alliances and agreements is obviously over anyway. Better to find other trading partners!

Listening to The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch. About halfway through and enjoying it a lot. Great performance by the narrator Michael Page!

Comet in Moominland, Moominsummer Madness. CS Lewis' Narnia books. Susan Cooper's Dark is Rising book series. Good luck!

I would try to weed out where possible. But I am also aware that many forms of lies are largely institutionalized and accepted in the context of the market economy and various political and ideological systems that I am part of. For example, I am exposed to a constant stream of lies from various companies that say they care about me, my personal data, my health, the environment et c.

I don't know how realistic it would be to try to completely break away from these systems while at the same time maintaining the social relations I need to function socially and emotionally. Also, since the educational system only taught me how to be part of these systems and not how to break away, I lack much of the knowledge and skills needed to do that.

My conclusion is that while I can sometimes weed out on an individual level, some kind of political organization and action is also necessary if I want to at least try to do something about the institutional and system levels.

What do you have in the back then?

I try to spend time in nature. Walk around. Sit on a rock. Look at small things. Close my eyes and listen, smell, feel. Go home. Take a shower. Eat something uncomplicated but reasonable (oatmeal + eggs (optional) + fruit (optional)). Go to bed early (not optional). Feel what feels like to be tired. Sleep.

Thank you, can I have Peppa Pig please?

I think this is a great question. Even if there is a misunderstanding hidden in there somewhere it looks like the kind of question that could produce very informative and interesting answers from someone with knowledge in the field.

Some classics are Conan by Howard, Michael Moorcock's Elric books and Fritz Leiber's "Swords" books. I really like Dune as well (but that's sci fi I guess). Have fun with Discworld!

Arrogant behaviour

Great answer, do you see any internal tensions within the Axis that could foreseeably have caused collapse comparable to say Soviet communism's collapse in the real world? How dependant were they on Hitler and Mussolini as individuals?

Go for the eyes Boo, go for the eyes!

Thanks for another great answer. I realise now that the comparison with Soviet wasn't very thoughtful of me. I just wanted to imagine something that would have broken up the Nazi German hegemony from the inside.

Another thought is that American products and culture probably are popular partly because they were winners in World War 2.

Ideologies such as social liberalism and democratic socialism are often regarded as in between extreme left and extreme right positions. There are many other positions of course such as centre-right and various "green" and religiously motivated positions. They could also often fit somewhere in between on a conventional right-left spectrum. This of course varies a lot between countries and political systems.

Blood tests. I guess it is understandable from an emotional viewpoint but it is certainly not logical. I also can't watch scenes in movies where they inject drugs. Eeeeh!!!!
