    Foreign aid has hilariously good ROI. When I went to Africa, locals told me that the Bush admin introduced the concept of bug nets to prevent mosquito bites and malaria. A one-time program that probably cost Americans at most $10 drove a major cultural shift that has saved possibly millions of lives and has affected everyone. We’ll literally buying goodwill.











    1. They knocked over the queen, not the king
    2. The black king is in check, so it must be black’s turn or the game is already over due to off-screen pieces

  • It’s kind of a funny thing, I don’t think I can miss the super bowl. I used to play football at lunch in middle school, and loved watching and following it then. Once I learned about concussions, I pretty much stopped watching. Not a huge fan of the halftime shows lately, and the ads have definitely gotten worse. The thing is the super bowl is just a great time to go out and hang out with friends, so I’m going to watch it every year for a while.
