LooeyVille @LooeyVille (96) • United States 5h

I have a collapsible metallic reflective sun shade that I keep in my car for the hot summer days. I used to use one all the time when I worked in an office and was parked outside in the sun all day I read that “ On an 80-degree...

Juliaacv When I was younger and drove a car without a/c, I used one, but these days with a/c and cooled steering wheel and seats, and a garage to keep the car out of the sun, we do not use one.

Monetising the Presidency

kay lar @jaylar (3840) • Kingston, Jamaica 16h

Most Presidents are there to 'serve'. They enter office to represent America, and make decisions to benefit the people. Not Trump. Trump became President to fill his pockets. And he has been really successful. Last year he...

Juliaacv I feel sorry for the citizens of the US that he is the president. The people from that country that I know or are related to have nothing in common with him.

Juliaacv Yes, typically if it is a spoken code, I give a 3 digit number, if it is online then I have a very specific, case sensitive word that I use. When our son started to school all of those years ago, he had to choose a code word, so that if someone came to pick...

Getting Adjusted

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (136730) • Marion, Ohio 14h

I had to try!

Fleur @Fleura (35448) • United Kingdom 13h

After the dismaying theft of the duck eggs/ almost-term ducklings by the magpies, I felt I had to do something. I know it’s natural for eggs and baby birds to be preyed upon, and I understand that magpies have to eat and feed...

How much caffeine do you drink?

Amber @AmbiePam (122026) • United States 16h

I think a lot of you get your caffeine via coffee. I get mine via soda. And yes, I KNOW soda is not good for me. But I don’t have sugar in my diet otherwise. I don’t like sweets that much. I was wondering how much caffeine do you...

Juliaacv I have a morning cup, a mid morning and mid afternoon cup at work, those at work are not necessarily full cups. But it doesn't keep me awake at night. I am usually only awaken if there is a storm, a full moon, or if I have a headache.

Juliaacv I think that sports are great, but they cannot take such a devastating an unreversible toll on a player's body. No sport nor activity is worth that.

JB_girl @sol_cee (38956) • Philippines 30 Jun
