Chaotic demonstrations against Law & Order in the city by the bay
Have you been watching the videos. What's happening right now is far far worse than your insurrection. I just watched them destroying about a dozen police cars. Mass looting fires everywhere. I watched a hoard of people attack a single lady because she was counter protesting. Due to her family being murdered by illegals. I could go on and on with events I have been watching in videos. Its chaos which needs to be haulted. -

How do you describe luck? Are you lucky?
I'm feeling very lucky today. I needed some help with documents and notory and blah, blah, blah.... reached out overseas to people I haven't talked to in about nine years, and they both responsed positively in about a day. I'm not asking for money, so maybe that's different. lol. I think that's "luck" (see below) Had about three close calls in Thailand (accidents), one could've easily changed my life. Of course I don't think I did anything wrong, but the truck overreacted, went into a ditch at a super high speed, and had about 10 people hanging out in the flatbed. Luckily, nobody was hurt, no damage to their ride. I'm sure I would have been blamed. Got lucky, I guess. Parents were absolutely not rich, but, looking back, above middle-class. Luck. I went to such a bad high-school that doing nothing put me on the Honor roll and top 10% of my class, the biggest metric for one school that accepted me. Luck. Once I swear I had about zero in my bank account and magically got $2500 that day (tax refund). 1990's maybe. Luck. Owner gave me about $5000 just for not leaving on bad terms. Lucky. note: rich people are headaches, but they are rich. Some people hook up with one person and gets AIDS and they get pregnant. That's not luck. Pulled over for whatever driving offense, let go with a warning. many times. Lucky that the cop liked me. (complex). lol. Some people walk across the street during the filming of Final Destination. That's not luck. Oh, my luck will run out (maybe today) and I wish I was luckier (we all do). I've been unlucky with Shopee and Lazada here. Unlucky with cars. Unlucky with.......... On a scale of 1 - 100, I'd put my luck meter at 86. Higher than I deserve. Luck isn't strictly either "made" or "born," but rather a combination of both. While some people are born into more advantageous circumstances, "luck" is also significantly shaped by mindset, perception, and conscious choices we make. Elaboration: "Born Lucky": Some individuals are born into families with greater financial resources, access to education, or other factors that give them a head start. These initial advantages might be seen as "luck" in the sense that they are not solely determined by individual effort. "Making Your Own Luck": Even within similar circumstances, individuals can actively shape their own "luck" through their mindset and actions. Studies suggest that luck is more about a positive attitude and willingness to see opportunities than random chance. People who are perceived as "lucky" often seize opportunities, reframe failures, and actively shape their circumstances. Preparation and Opportunity: "Luck" often occurs when preparation meets opportunity. Individuals who are prepared and proactive are more likely to recognize and take advantage of opportunities that may otherwise be missed. The Role of Mindset: A positive and resilient mindset can help individuals navigate challenging situations and perceive "luck" in unexpected ways. Chance and Influence: While there are uncontrollable factors, much of what we perceive as "luck" is influenced by our choices, attitudes, and behaviors. -

Whats the point of the morning and afternoon alcohol law?
But when they're caught, they lose their license, so most won't take that chance. At least in the US -

Life's too short for string beans for breakfast, but otherwise that looks damn good. -
