Not sure what the right motto is here, but, glory to the Primarch!

One thing I love Wikipedia for is disambiguation. There’s a lot of Joes out there, but maybe you mean one of these? bit.ly/WhichJoe.

I would try to push back on them to provide sufficient information. If you have an urgent or crisis situation, please contact them using these instructions: bit.ly/UCSCallCrisis

You do you – or whichever warrior you are channeling. Me, I’m a softy!

That philosopher who makes the most arguments that are both valid and sound, and also most relevant to the most lives.

1. Nietzche 2. Camus 3. Kierkegaard H.M. Plato

We all have our favorites.

It’s a balance, for sure. But ask yourself if you are really happy always in your comfort zone, or maybe if there are fears you can deal with and get a bit out of that zone…?

I love many cities, but I have a special fondness for walled cities (what can I say, I have a bias for my friends). Some of my favorites are Pingyao in China, Avila in Spain, Mdina in Malta, and Jerusalem.

As society has moved away from this belief, the stereotype has become less common and great artists have become less likely to embrace this lifestyle.

People have been reporting on the so-called death of the humanities for decades, and I gotta say, it’s overblown. An undergraduate degree is a general credential, proof that you’ve learned how to learn something complicated. You’ll have plenty of time to be practical later, study what you’re interested in now.
