Egyptian is pretty well-known but underrepresented in popular media.
There's a lot of weird Talmudic stuff about angels.
My life only gets more wild the longer I live. College is a good time to start having sex but hardly the only time.
If it's only while in bed to sleep, I could do $200K. I'd be willing to also wear it for naps on the couch but not for, ahem, other activities I do in bed.
Part of it was that we were guests, so the hospitality culture dictated that we were served "celebration" type foods: hotdogs, iceberg salad, frybread. Which is fun but not a long-term diet.
The main thing was the lack of vegetables, especially fresh vegetables. There's nowhere to grow them and nowhere to buy them, and even if you drive off the rez, an hour to Valentine, NE for a real supermarket, the prices are very high.
Virginity isn't real. It's a label used to shame women by its absence and men by its presence, but doesn't say anything useful about a person.
For you, you're still young. Barely done growing, biologically. Your life isn't over, it's just now beginning.
Ireland for sure. r/Ireland was one of the best, funniest, friendliest subs on reddit, I'd love to see them here.
Itinerant Summer Camp Counselor on Indian Reservations
Do you know what the poorest county in the US is? Neither do I, but at the time, it was Todd County, SD, where the Pine Ridge Reservation meets the Rosebud Reservation. This is raw desert. This is nobody's ancestral lands because nobody would or could live here long-term. This is just where a big section of the Lakota people got shoved.
We would go into a town, and set up our weeklong free program for the local kids. We stayed with locals, or slept on the floor of churches in sleeping bags. We had to bring in all of our own supplies and most of our own food, partly because there was nowhere to buy anything but also because if we ate what the locals had to serve us we got malnourished and depressed –we learned this the hard way, and almost crashed the program two weeks in from burnout, we were so miserable. We would do our best to give the kids some fun, some education, and a good lunch but ultimately they just wandered in and out as they would and other than enforcing "no fighting" in the program areas we were powerless to do anything more.
I live on the West Side of Chicago now, a block away from a permanent homeless camp. I've been homeless myself, briefly, before I got my life turned around. I'm no stranger to urban poverty. But as bad as it is, I would take it over rural poverty any day. At least in the city you can get up and walk away. Resources are underfunded but they're there. Out in the desert, on the rez... all you have is the community, and the community is broke.

Chicago, forever and always. Go Maroons!
The good guys are the humanitarian aid workers risking their lives bringing food and medical care into the region.
I'll be going straight to work, honestly.
You know it!
