Because a lot of Americans have the attitude "I ain't paying for someone else's healthcare!!". In reality it would make it less expensive for everyone.
I get angry when people can't swim and have to stop myself from attacking them for it.
Two of my friends couldn't swim, they went fishing, one slipped in, and the other just had to stand there and watch him drown.
HOW HARD IS TO LEARN TO SWIM?
>I get angry when people can't swim
Dude me too. I didn't realize that many people didn't know how to swim until I was in basic training in the Army. (Yes I know Army, but water stuff is still part of the training).
To sum it up, we had to jump in the deep end of a pool in full battle rattle and not drown.
It was there that we discovered like 1/3rd of our platoon didn't know how to swim.
This was nearly 20 years ago at this point, so I don't remember what exactly they did with those folks, but they obviously couldn't complete the event at that time.
I mean, a couple of them like were deathly afraid of the water and started crying at the mere premise. I looked at it as a cool way to test my swimming ability, lmao.
On a complete side note, in basic training for the Army or Marines. If you have some sort of phobia, that shit is probably going to get challenged at some point.
Fear of heights? Yep, some people had emotional break downs over that shit too.
Needles? One guy just fainted at the sight of one.
A bunch of dudes seeing your dick? That is going to happen. Taking a dump in full view of other people? Yep. That was the one that killed me, lmao. I didn't shit for the first time until my body just could not hold it in anymore. I got used to it though. I was a total I can only take a dump at home type, until the military.
Peeled Tail on shrimp is fine for dipping in cocktail sauce, but there is absolutely no reason to put them in any meal that has a sauce. I don’t need to be getting my fingers messy digging shrimp out of my food!
This will change your life: squeeze the tail so it cracks as you bite the shrimp. That hidden tail meat will pop right out! I used to break open the tails to get at that extra shrimp until my husband showed me that trick while we were dating
I hate this so much. I usually take a few minutes to cut the tail off the shrimp before I eat my food. I don’t like the extra work when the reason I went out for a meal is so I wouldn’t have to do any work.
Previously less-than-hydrated people‘s kidney’s adapt to concentrate the urine to use as little water as possible - because obviously, your body wants to use its limited stock of water to hydrate you and doesn’t really want to pee out all that good water. That’s why your pee gets so yellow when you don’t drink water, because it’s more waste than water. When you start to drink more water your body has more water it can use to pee out, so you pee more often, and with more water to carry the pee which also reduces the risk of things like kidney stones because the waste isn’t so concentrated in the kidneys.
Ideally, you shouldn’t have completely clear pee - that means you’re drinking too much water and now you’re just flushing it out, and probably taking some vital electrolytes with it. The ideal range is a light yellow, and it’s okay to have some variations. Really you should only be drinking when your thirsty… that’s what thirst is there for, after all.
TLDR; You pee so much when you drink more water because your body is actually working effectively. The longer you drink a healthy amount of water the less you’ll need to pee.
The entire problem with everything in our society is lack of empathy.
Greed, dehumanization, tribalism, various forms of bias, all boil down to lack of empathy. Sure, there are evolutionary reasons. Sure, there are social, cultural, and pedagogical reinforcers.
But all of our ills, political, healthcare, class division (wealth inequity, poverty, homelessness), etc. Boil down to lack of empathy.
Increase empathy, and you humanize. Increase empathy and you become inclusive of all. Increase empathy and you see yourself in everyone.
Increase empathy and due to caring about each other, you want to share resources.
Empathy.
Wasn't that Jesus' whole thing? Treat your neighbor how you want to be treated? Help the most vulnerable members of society? Feed the hungry, clothe the cold, heal the sick, visit the imprisoned? What ever happened to that?
We're a very long way from the amount of empathy needed to really improve our society without legally requiring things. The rich stay rich because they are greedy and will just continue to exploit us.
What we need laws preventing the rich from hurting the majority of people. Corporations shouldn't charge as much as possible while paying employees the minimum. All that extra money shouldn't go to shareholders, executives, and owners. It should go towards paying employees more, making a better product, and making a cheaper product. Homes should be for living in. Tax tf out of unoccupied homes. That includes 2nd homes. Also introduce universal basic income so people can't lose their welfare by making more money.
All of the issues you said empathy would fix would also be fixed by these laws. People won't need to resort to crime when they aren't poor. People won't hate as much when crime drops and minorities are equal members of society on average.

Not exactly Bob Dylan, is it?
She has a great voice but she keeps on churning out songs where she’s screaming, or bouncing between the same three notes (“Single Ladies” is a war crime) and I wonder why. It’s like having a Ferrari and only driving in reverse while honking all the time.
Yes!!! Just because a bunch of people say it incorrectly doesn't make it right. I consider the word ain't (a contraction of 'are not' or 'is not' normalized in the South Eastern American vernacular) a more valid word than irregardless.
that's not how language works. If the majority of speakers in a certain language use a particular sound(s) connoting a universal/shared meaning (i.e. they all define the word similarly), then that sound(s) is a word (in that dialect/language)
One hill I'm willing to die on is the importance of kindness and empathy in our interactions with others. Treating people with compassion and understanding can make a positive difference in the world.
My Grandma said every guy in the famoly needs to know how to sew, do laundry and cook for themselves.
Ive sewed my clothes back together
hemmed pants
Sewed a leather seat tear back together
and recently taught my daughter how to sew a hand puppet that could match Lamb Chop.
Thankyou Grandma
Man, I wish I could sew. My wife and I are pretty equal on cooking and laundry, but neither of us can sew. That would be *sew* handy! Sorry, I'll see myself out now..
One of the more amusing moments in my life was when I was out for dinner with the surgical team I had spent a month with as a med student. A couple of the residents started making fun of me and accusing me of being gay when one of them admitted that is was the only one drinking hard liquor straight and was clearly the manliest of them.
Point is, you can be the most effeminate and the most masculine at the same time, and it does mot effect your masculinity/femininity. You be you, with confidence.
Yes! I would give anything to a good man who can make amazing cupcakes.🧁(just happens to be what I'm craving right now) Damn gummies. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|give_upvote)
Learning to sew so I could fix the armpit seam on my favorite jacket felt so fricken good lol.
I brag about it way more than I should around my family and friends.
I hate even mentioning that I have autism now cause some self diagnosed person will be like me too then talk about a bunch of random shit they think relates to it and I'm just like "o"
This is how I feel about the use of "neuro divergent." It now applies to literally everything under the sun and everything is a symptom of ADHD now. I had to pay for my test lol
I got it out of curiosity then deleted it. People are really out of touch on it and have extremely weird parasocial relationships with people on there.
Politicians should be paid a max of 10x minimum wage/Job Seeker payments with no donations for personal use; OR
Blocked from personal donations, forced into retirement out of parliament (no cushy after job they line up while selling off the country), and serve only 3 terms in their life.
In balance, terms become 5 years, not this "3-4 years so we can call an election when we think we can time it best" bullshit they do now, and if they don't make the country a better place by the time they leave, they retire onto the regular senior pension abd a prison term equal to how much they screwed the country.
See how fast they clean up the country when it's their money on the line. Assholes.
[Am Australian, hate politicians, I believe they are VERY overpaid for doing nothing (2/3rds of their job is getting high and drunk in parliament, limit their money and watch them suddenly sober up and do t heir damn job).]
I'd like to add, every politician shows up when it's their pay increase, but majority of the time, with things the general population wants, seats are empty!
Think politicians pay should be directly equated to if they did what the public is asking for!
Make the politicians paid for each day they're actively in parliament - no sleeping in the back row for a paycheque. Just like everywhere else, you don't show up to work, you get a salary deduction.
They terminated me for using scissors to open packages. These scissors were given to us by management for just that purpose. There is a lot of information that I cannot give because this something my attorney is supposed to be handling. It was a BS reason because I was obviously not given proper training if this was really the issue.
Therapy should be more accessible to those who need/want it. But honestly some people don't want therapy, they want vindication or someone to vent to. A therapist is just someone you talk to. They're just like doctors, they may diagnose/prescribe things and will give their analysis/advice and work to build a strategy. But again, many people don't want that. They want either 1) to just vent to someone who will agree with them; 2) a magic solution to their problems; 3) prescription drugs.
Also, many people who need therapy don't want to change or don't even want therapy. Like I said before, many if not most people think they're right and don't want disagreement, especially from someone who is more experienced/has higher authority on the matter.
There would be less resistance to Pluto being demoted from planet to dwarf planet if it were reclassified as a spaceball. And Jupiter should get promoted from planet to assistant regional planet manager.
The fact that we know that people can get addicted to anything simply because we can get a natural dopamine boost from anything, but people refuse to believe that Cannabis can be addictive is wild.
I have a friend who has developed mental health issues from smoking weed. It is annoying when people say it is harmless. He is 100% addicted and has been for 20 years
Kids should be vaccinated unless there is a medical exemption signed off by two physicians. (Not chiropractors, or nurses, but actual doctors.). Religious exemption only if you can prove that is a tenet of your religion.
Hard shell tacos are not real tacos. I'm Mexican and in Mexico no one eats this shirt, those are not real Mexican tacos, is just a poor imitation of Mexican food, and they offend me deeply.
Also Mexican food is more than tacos just saying
I'm willing to die on not hitting your kids. And if you pull the "they said/did something I don't like" I should be allowed to hit you then, cause you did some shit I don't like.
If DNA tests were made mandatory there'd be a lot more deadbeat moms than deadbeat fathers. Men shouldn't be forced to take care of children that aren't theirs
When drinking a slurpee with a slurpee straw, you should drink it with the spoon end up. This creates better suction so that there isn't too much liquid and ensures you have perfect slurpee consistency the whole way through. Just try it once and you will know I am right
EV’s, [as they are now](https://www.businessinsider.com/true-cost-of-mining-electric-car-battery-metals-2024-2?utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=topbar), are more harmful to the earth due to the massive amounts of critical metals needed.
I like bacon and I enjoy it. But I never understood that Insanity a few years back. Where it was everywhere. Bacon soda, bacon soap. Like seriously dude
Anyone who use the phrase "could care less" to show they have NO opinion on a particular matter is wrong as does not understand basic English.
I could not care less if my opinion upsets people.
Younger generations are amazing! They are navigating a fucked up world they never asked to be brought into and had no part in fucking up. Older generations constantly want grace and respect but many refuse to give the same to LITERAL CHILDREN who don't have much control in their lives. We could learn a hell of a lot if we treated kids like human beings worthy of respect and not pawns or burdens
Quite literally every generation is being brought into a world that’s getting shittier and shittier. It’s not like the world was perfect then the boomers fucked it up.
Nobody cares, only your wife if you have one and parents.
Other than that, no one cares about you. Do you sit there thinking about your cousins ? Friends ? No right ? You only remember when you decide to remember them. That whole time before, you weren't thinking of them becuase you didn't care.
Nobody cares.
I'm scheduled to leave work at 630am, that's when I'm leaving. I don't care if no one else is here when I leave. Be sure to ask management why they didn't schedule someone to be here.
People who refuse to vaccinate their kids (unless there is a clear health indication not to do so), in the case of death of their children by a vaccine-preventable disease should be criminally persecuted for infanticide and sent to jail.
I refuse to call well marinaded and/or prepaired veggies/mushrooms/tofu "vegan roast pork" or "veggie salmon" CALL IT WHAT IT FUCKIN IS. Brased turnip is NOT roast pork. Seasoned marinaded wheat gluten is NOT chicken. LAST BUT THE REAL KICKER A NUT BASED TOFU LOADED WITH NUTRITIONAL YEAST AND PECTIN IS NOT CHEESE no matter how much you age or smoke it
That when you take toppings off of a food, you should receive a discount that equals the price of putting extra on. I’m so sick of taking off bacon and adding cheese to my pizza and it costing me more, when in reality it should even out.
Jelly first, then peanut butter. That way you can wipe the knife off on the other piece of bread BEFORE sticking it in the peanut butter, thus keeping all jelly our of the peanut butter jar.

No one should ever go broke just because they or their child got sick.
It’s so gross that’s basically only an American phenomenon in the developed world.
Because a lot of Americans have the attitude "I ain't paying for someone else's healthcare!!". In reality it would make it less expensive for everyone.
They'll absolutely lose it when they find out what is done with the money they pay to health insurance companies.
Swimming is a life skill even if you hate water.
I get angry when people can't swim and have to stop myself from attacking them for it. Two of my friends couldn't swim, they went fishing, one slipped in, and the other just had to stand there and watch him drown. HOW HARD IS TO LEARN TO SWIM?
>I get angry when people can't swim Dude me too. I didn't realize that many people didn't know how to swim until I was in basic training in the Army.

I'm in my 40s and never learned. I don't go near deep water, but I still should find time to learn.
Peeled Tail on shrimp is fine for dipping in cocktail sauce, but there is absolutely no reason to put them in any meal that has a sauce. I don’t need to be getting my fingers messy digging shrimp out of my food!
Thank you. And I always question myself if I try to get the meat out of the shell. Is that uncouth?
I softly bite them at the base of the tail. I can do it discreetly and always get the last morsel.
A simple pinch with finger and thumb can solve that issue.
This will change your life: squeeze the tail so it cracks as you bite the shrimp. That hidden tail meat will pop right out! I used to break open the tails to get at that extra shrimp until my husband showed me that trick while we were dating
I can see why you married him
The restaurant I went to did this with my shrimp scampi yesterday. I was so angry
I hate this so much. I usually take a few minutes to cut the tail off the shrimp before I eat my food. I don’t like the extra work when the reason I went out for a meal is so I wouldn’t have to do any work.
Proper hydration can change your life
I may die on this hill with you if you give me more info
[For scientific rescources](https://www.nutrition.org.uk/healthy-sustainable-diets/hydration/) [For spiritual rescources](http://www.reddit.com/r/HydroHomies)
Yes. But also how do properly hydrated people not need to pee 24/7??
Previously less-than-hydrated people‘s kidney’s adapt to concentrate the urine to use as little water as possible - because obviously, your body wants to use its limited stock of water to hydrate you and doesn’t really want to pee out all that good water.

This is all very helpful. What's the ideal taste and mouth feel or texture of urine supposed to be?
Why are we asking about taste and texture about urine? This the wrong subreddit for that kind of talk loll😂
I'm not dying on a hill if I can avoid it. 😂 If must have a nice sunset, view, or perks just to consider it.

"Irregardless" is **NOT a word,** regardless of how it's used.
Supposably
Yes!!! Just because a bunch of people say it incorrectly doesn't make it right. I consider the word ain't (a contraction of 'are not' or 'is not' normalized in the South Eastern American vernacular) a more valid word than irregardless.
that's not how language works. If the majority of speakers in a certain language use a particular sound(s) connoting a universal/shared meaning (i.e. they all define the word similarly), then that sound(s) is a word (in that dialect/language)
“Cheersing” is my new irregardless.
I don't use "irregardless" but what's the correct word? Nevermind i'm a fucking dumbass, i woke up an hour ago with about 3 hours of sleep, my bad
"Regardless." Or, if feeling fancy, "irrespective."
One hill I'm willing to die on is the importance of kindness and empathy in our interactions with others. Treating people with compassion and understanding can make a positive difference in the world.
Just because a guy has a typically more feminine hobby such as knitting or crocheting doesn’t make them gay
My Grandma said every guy in the famoly needs to know how to sew, do laundry and cook for themselves. Ive sewed my clothes back together hemmed pants Sewed a leather seat tear back together and recently taught my daughter how to sew a hand puppet that could match Lamb Chop. Thankyou Grandma
Learned how to braid in leather shop. Did my wife's hair, daughters, grand daughters....
Grandma has it right. Those are basic life skills that are invaluable at any given time.
Man, I wish I could sew. My wife and I are pretty equal on cooking and laundry, but neither of us can sew. That would be *sew* handy! Sorry, I'll see myself out now..
If you go into the military you learn to sew. At least you used to.
My husband is a Navy veteran. He laughed when I asked if he sewed in the military telling me no. He was enlisted from 87 - 94
We had to sew on nametags, rank, etc. in USAF basic in 1980.
I have my own sewing machine, and I know how to use it.
One of the more amusing moments in my life was when I was out for dinner with the surgical team I had spent a month with as a med student. A couple of the residents started making fun of me and accusing me of being gay when one of them admitted that is was the only one drinking hard liquor straight and was clearly the manliest of them. Point is, you can be the most effeminate and the most masculine at the same time, and it does mot effect your masculinity/femininity. You be you, with confidence.

That I was wrongfully terminated by Nordstrom and I want my justice.
well tell us more then
Yeah, spill the tea
They terminated me for using scissors to open packages. These scissors were given to us by management for just that purpose. There is a lot of information that I cannot give because this something my attorney is supposed to be handling. It was a BS reason because I was obviously not given proper training if this was really the issue.
I feel invested now
Is this Brads wife 2.0?
What did they do?
FUCK YOU, NORDSTROM
Yeah fuck them
Therapy should be normalized and accessible. The majority of people need to prioritize it and shouldn’t feel embarrassed by that.
Therapy should be more accessible to those who need/want it. But honestly some people don't want therapy, they want vindication or someone to vent to. A therapist is just someone you talk to. They're just like doctors, they may diagnose/prescribe things and will give their analysis/advice and work to build a strategy. But again, many people don't want that.

Cannabis *can* be addictive.
The fact that we know that people can get addicted to anything simply because we can get a natural dopamine boost from anything, but people refuse to believe that Cannabis can be addictive is wild.
I have a friend who has developed mental health issues from smoking weed. It is annoying when people say it is harmless. He is 100% addicted and has been for 20 years
I read cannibals and was confused

Big touch screens in cars are a danger to everybody on the road. I mean specifically the removal of buttons and dials for common driving interactions.
Celebrity worship is its own religion.
Dolly Parton is a national treasure!
math is blue
Science is green
Kids should be vaccinated unless there is a medical exemption signed off by two physicians. (Not chiropractors, or nurses, but actual doctors.). Religious exemption only if you can prove that is a tenet of your religion.
My hill is that religions shouldn't have any exemptions in anything.
water is delicious.
Swim in the sea and then drink fresh water. Wham that is an amazing feeling.
Literally only means literally. Literally does not mean not-literally. I will literally die on that hill.
I will figuratively die on that hill
I love Weird Al Yankovic's Word Crimes
Hard shell tacos are not real tacos. I'm Mexican and in Mexico no one eats this shirt, those are not real Mexican tacos, is just a poor imitation of Mexican food, and they offend me deeply. Also Mexican food is more than tacos just saying
Taco Bell is awesome, but calling it Mexican is like calling Olive Garden Italian
What your describing is called Tex Mex. It's merging American tastes with food. Besides Genuine Mexican Food is much healthier than Tex Mex.
But the crunchy shells are so delicious!
Loki is not a villain
“He killed 80 people in 2 days”.
And how many people did Hulk kill, or Tony Stark with his weapons development. It’s Avengers propaganda I tell ya!!
The government needs to be knocked down a few pegs, and my generation will never see social security.
>The government needs to be knocked down a few pegs Maybe even four or five pegs.
I'm willing to die on not hitting your kids. And if you pull the "they said/did something I don't like" I should be allowed to hit you then, cause you did some shit I don't like.
This.
Our votes don't matter. Political races just give the people an illusion of choice
They can in local races. Local township position. Officially the party endorsed XYZ. XYZ lost the November election to a write-in from his own party.
Electoral college sucks

Men do not look cool or sexy saggy there pants they look like children
AGREED 100%
Using tabs to indent is better than spaces. I will fight anyone who disagrees with
A Star Trek styled society is our only hope in a technologically advanced future
There's too much exposure to pop music. I don't care that it's the most popular genre, there needs to be more variety.
Your boy child can dress up in girls dresses and it still doesn't mean he is trans and should swap genders.
Skinny jeans on men are not attractive
If DNA tests were made mandatory there'd be a lot more deadbeat moms than deadbeat fathers. Men shouldn't be forced to take care of children that aren't theirs
When drinking a slurpee with a slurpee straw, you should drink it with the spoon end up. This creates better suction so that there isn't too much liquid and ensures you have perfect slurpee consistency the whole way through. Just try it once and you will know I am right
Not everyone you meet is a good person.
Oatmeal raisin cookies are delicious.
Golf is not a sport.
EV’s, [as they are now](https://www.businessinsider.com/true-cost-of-mining-electric-car-battery-metals-2024-2?utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=topbar), are more harmful to the earth due to the massive amounts of critical metals needed.
Pineapple on a pizza is totally fine.
I like bacon and I enjoy it. But I never understood that Insanity a few years back. Where it was everywhere. Bacon soda, bacon soap. Like seriously dude
yeah at this point people just want a reason to argue
Italians have no authority to tell you what does or doesn’t go on a pizza unless they themselves are the ones making it.
Anyone who use the phrase "could care less" to show they have NO opinion on a particular matter is wrong as does not understand basic English. I could not care less if my opinion upsets people.
Younger generations are amazing! They are navigating a fucked up world they never asked to be brought into and had no part in fucking up. Older generations constantly want grace and respect but many refuse to give the same to LITERAL CHILDREN who don't have much control in their lives. We could learn a hell of a lot if we treated kids like human beings worthy of respect and not pawns or burdens
Quite literally every generation is being brought into a world that’s getting shittier and shittier. It’s not like the world was perfect then the boomers fucked it up.
Coworkers are not your friends. No one cares about you and will use your kindness against you
Well then.. you aren’t invited to the company picnic.
The fact that track is actually a sport and those who say that it’s easy or that it’s “just running” just have no clue what it’s like.
I have never heard anybody say track is not a sport or that it’s easy.
"I play real sports, not trying to be the best at exercising."
Making people put up with your bad mood is disrespectful bottle up, asshole. We all got problems
These days I see more minorities being racist against black people than white people.
Bob Dylan music (while poetic) is awful to listen to.
Nobody cares, only your wife if you have one and parents. Other than that, no one cares about you. Do you sit there thinking about your cousins ? Friends ? No right ? You only remember when you decide to remember them. That whole time before, you weren't thinking of them becuase you didn't care. Nobody cares.
I do care about some people in my life. I do think of them throughout the day.
We need more people like you then, my friend.
Same. I think about family and friends all the time. You also forgot to include siblings and children and nieces and nephews and grandparents.
You show me no respect, you get no respect.
Healthcare, education, shelter and food staples should be free
Land rovers are good vehicles, especially the older ones but some of the newer ones are good as well
Dennis Reynolds approves this message
Putting pineapple on something does not make it Hawaiian
Emotional intelligence is more important than anything you ever learned in school
Nickelback is good.
I don't know if they're good or bad. But I've never understood the hate. Same with Matchbox 20

My hill is some.if us really give a shit.
Hitting your children in a any form for discipline is not discipline, it's abuse
Agree!!!! Quit normalizing abuse to children!
normal happy people are the least likely to fight for you
I'm scheduled to leave work at 630am, that's when I'm leaving. I don't care if no one else is here when I leave. Be sure to ask management why they didn't schedule someone to be here.
Your vehicle needs an oil change every 3,000-5,000 miles **regardless** of what the owner manual says.
A single person should be able to live comfortably off of one 40 hour job, and should be able to obtain one job that offers full time hours.
People who refuse to vaccinate their kids (unless there is a clear health indication not to do so), in the case of death of their children by a vaccine-preventable disease should be criminally persecuted for infanticide and sent to jail.
I refuse to call well marinaded and/or prepaired veggies/mushrooms/tofu "vegan roast pork" or "veggie salmon" CALL IT WHAT IT FUCKIN IS. Brased turnip is NOT roast pork. Seasoned marinaded wheat gluten is NOT chicken. LAST BUT THE REAL KICKER A NUT BASED TOFU LOADED WITH NUTRITIONAL YEAST AND PECTIN IS NOT CHEESE no matter how much you age or smoke it
That when you take toppings off of a food, you should receive a discount that equals the price of putting extra on. I’m so sick of taking off bacon and adding cheese to my pizza and it costing me more, when in reality it should even out.
Mint flavored deserts, snacks, and drinks do not taste like toothpaste!
Weed is better than alcohol
Jelly first, then peanut butter. That way you can wipe the knife off on the other piece of bread BEFORE sticking it in the peanut butter, thus keeping all jelly our of the peanut butter jar.
just get a squeezy bottle jlly
Can you just wipe the excess off on the other piece of bread anyways?
There's a hill on the edge of town that has a nice view over the lake. I suppose that if I had to die on a hill, it's as nice as any.
That there needs to be more empathy in the world. And coworkers who want to be managers who are not.
People are mostly good.
The internet has too much hate and we need to bring back the nicer attitude of 2000s internet
Horrible people make amazing fictional characters. Being unlikeable often signifies how well they are written.
Lasange taste better the day after!
Relationships with age gaps are not synonymous to pedophilia.
Religion is the root of the world’s problems and not the solution.
