For me, I can take chips on an empty stomach all right around breakfast time (not that I would generally want to). Later in the day, if I don't eat protein or fat before eating the chips, I'll get a headache and joint pain. In the evening, I'll often get pain regardless of what I eat.

And they give you a headache if you eat them at the wrong time

Driving is never going to be predictable enough to consistently get you to a destination where 30 seconds is a life-or-death class difference. The other people you're getting angry at are also workers struggling to live in the same capitalist hellscape and you don't know what's going on in or around their car (this is the "fundamental attribution error"). Your anger at other drivers is misplaced, and further, makes you a more dangerous driver.

Seriously. Drivers really seem to lose their sense of time. Going 5 mph slower (or even 15) for a couple minutes won't impact your arrival time (or will do so only negligibly) because you're just going to have to wait at the next light anyway. And getting angry while driving is just as dangerous as other causes of distracted driving.

I don't know why not; Christianity has been about imperialism since the beginning. People forget that Revelations was written by a Jewish author, and the beast he described was Christianity

  1. An ever-larger number of people can't afford basic necessities
  2. They keep releasing movies that suck

That was my experience also. I had a very smart coworker, a scientist, who was libertarian, very anti-police and everything. Then Trump came along and he went full fascist. It was very disturbing, and I haven't trusted libertarians since.

Note: I'm using libertarian as shorthand for libertarian capitalist, which is mostly how it's used in the US, though, as noted in another comment, there are other kinds of libertarians, like libertarian socialists.

Libertarians are much friendlier with conservatives than they are with liberals, however
