This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I remember 20 years ago an adult friend of mine (I'm getting old) told me "you can only start a business in the US", and that's why she wanted to stay here. Showing her businesses based from elsewhere was not persuasive.

People believe weird things about the US.
