And who's giving them the tablets? Shouldn't teachers know that such technology is addictive and should be consumed at your own risk?

my step sister doesn't get a book or a tablet. teacher just teaches them and expects them use a personal computer or device at home for homework. school went cheap here.

That's good, it really depends on the school district and whether you live in a fancy area or not. I think kids should be give apples and told to go do something, the complete institutionalization of education in my opinion has caused kids to turn into dumb adults.

uhh its not good. hell some of my step sisters classes are online only. guess what she does.... cheats on every damn thing.

then doesn't like it when I ask her history based questions and then laugh at her when she can't answer. despite currently taking history.

Girls have a different perspective on education. Women love trying to wear the pants, of course this has led to the downfall of every society that subjected itself to it thus far.

Are college kids really taught extreme leftism, or is it just media propaganda?

Yea, Arthur's good. I've been watching Hey Arnold recently. TV used to be better before the internet destroyed it.

Wrong message, rather but that makes enough sense, especially considering the Bible many times referencing how Satan will use trusted people to speak through them

According to the book of Revelation, Satan is "a great red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads". The diadems are a symbol of sovereignty, which means Satan can do what he wants. People ask why God allows such a creature to exist, instead they should be asking why they stray so far from God to approach such a thing in the first place.

Supernatural is meant purely for entertainment and to make $ and is not meant to be taken literally.

Your friend seems like he needs some help. You could be the first line of help that he needs to set him down a good path. Go out with him and keep an eye on his mannerisms. If he's seeking you out, he is doing it for one of two reasons: he thinks that you can help him, or he thinks that he can get things from you. That sounds scary, but keep that in mind when you take him out. I've been in situations like this where I've done strange things to friends as kind of a "hey man, I need you, but I'm way too embarrassed to talk about my life right now" because I was afraid of being judged by the people who care about me. IDK, I could be wrong, but that is just my opinion on the topic.

I have had a lot of past issues with drugs, so if you suspect anything if you were to hang out with him, feel free to PM me and I can give my honest opinion on it, and how I think you should approach it.

Thanks. Yeah, shame is a terrible thing. I think that by having a friendship like this I can learn how to handle a situation like this. Most people he doesn't open up to because he's an extremely tough person and always had a rough lifestyle. He doesn't respect authority or overly-educated types, but he does like to talk about spirituality.

There are many situations that I can hypothesize that could have happened to him to make him that way. I'm not a psychologist though. I wish you luck with helping your friend, and again, if you suspect drugs, feel free to PM me. Things to keep out for: check his pupils (very large or pinpointed?), check his perspiration (sweating a lot in a cold environment?), are his hands shaky, does he seem restless, is he talking very fast, is he avoiding eye contact, is his speech slurred, has he had rapid weight loss (or gain), has he been isolating himself, are just some things to look out for. A lot of these can be applied to a large amount of other non-drug related issues, but are my go to's for getting a hunch if someone is on something.

It's not his drug usage that worries me tbh. It's his lack of support. He's seen so much, and I've lived with him before so I understand where he comes from and what he's been through. I somewhat know his family and he's been part of my inner circle so I'm not gonna behave like a stranger who either slams the door on him or a professional doctor who does the exact opposite. I told his sister who was driving the car that he needs to relax. The whole family seemed extremely stressed, but I think they do love him.

It is both juicy drama and I also feel bad for all involved.

Me too, that's 3 reputations forever tarnished, I honestly hope they can all find some help. They say love is a house of cards, and he basically dropped a nuke on it.

The music video and vocals were pretty bad, the melody was pretty good. 4/10

It's pretty good, could see myself driving during sunset to music like this. 7.5/10

I've never played GT4 but this song encompasses the ps2 era for me... Images of MGS2 and Vice City pop into my head, there's something to it... 9/10

At first I thought it was kinda bad, the music video was uninspired and the vocals put me off but it grew on me after about 2 minutes. The chorus makes me nostalgic for some reason and some of the sound effects reminds me of how a star would sound. It reminds me of star light zone from sonic 1. 7.5/10

I do like the lyrics a lot, but overall the instrumentals and vocals sound like the band is on the verge of death. 5.5/10

Thanks Ferarri619!

I give that song 7.1/10. Not particularly stand-out for me, but I do like the scene where the girls are dancing in a frozen cave.
