A bird stopped by my window , it doesn't seem to be scared of people , it moves a little.

You should google bird rescue in your area, there are usually people who will come and try to save the bird. I don't know how old you are but I would tell your parents first if applicable.

I need math help

I would get 104, based on how I was taught in school the order of operations are. I think it may be things have changed since I was in school though.

I was taught PEMDAS = Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. Where multiplication and division have equal priority, and addition and subtraction have equal priority.

Since there are no parenthesis or exponents, according to PEMDAS you mutliple 25x0 first. that gives you 50+50-0+2+2

100-0+2+2

And from there it's easy to see how I got 104.


Important to note that order of operations is pretty arbitrary. It's just how a bunch of academics decided that the language of math should be written.

My mum calls me lazy.

Hi Lazy, my mum calls me Lano.

The fact is we rarely have particularly smart, rational, or unselfish parents. At best our parents are average. This is sad but it may help you take less of what your mother tells you to heart.

It took me longer than usual to realize such things as well and im still getting over the disappointment to a degree.

We look at some of the simplest life on the planet and think it's gross or bad.

You can look at that stuff and think, ewwww nasty, but our perceptions of such things are purely cultural and biological. Gross stuff seems gross to use because we evolved in such away to be repulsed by possibly unhealthy or dangerous scenarios.

For example, we evolved to find the smell of poop bad, because it's unhealthy for us to interact with it. Certain other animals get over this disgust because they are able to get nutrition from undigested food in their poop.

Gross and bad are value judgments, and they require a system of values to have meaning. In absolute sense, humans are just as (not) gross or (not) bad as poop or bacteria or sunshine.

i'm tired of chasing the happiness myth

This is a great action movie one liner, but is also true in a lot of ways:

I knew I'd go grey.

I just have a random patch of gray right on the left side of my chin. Its like, no, you're supposed to be evenly distributed across the face.

finally in need to ask for some real help about this situation im in.

In work situations, it comes down to either: telling your boss your concerns, or commiserating with your coworkers about what a butt he is.

If you can't make the source of stress go away, you have to find a healthy outlet to relieve it.

Are you referring to the Event Horizon spacecraft? Because if so, I think I've seen that film 5 times and I have no idea why.

It's a good scary movie, if we're thinking the same one.
