If we're talking about the object itself I am more a laptop user so my life woudn't change a bit without it, I could easily use old flip phones with basic functions like calls and texts. If we're talking about Internet that is another whole argument.

If we're talking about an 'alternative' method not backed up from 'rigorous' and 'scientific' evidences for definition in the first place, it's pointless asking for them. I think you're missing the point of my posts, I'm not trying to convince you or anybody on this being a valid discipline, I just pointed out the fact that for certain people and cases it did work, reason of why it still is around over hundreds of years.

You have to be total ignorant about horror movies if you think that politics or social messages on them is a new thing. He must be mad that his attempts at directing horror movies ended up with a mediocre output that nobody cared about.

I'm perfectly aware of that and that's why it is considered an 'alternative' medicine/remedy who doesn't substitute traditional one, but if some people can get a benefit from taking it and they're willing to give it a try in cases of which traditional doesn't work for them, why not? At best it's just water or sugar pills.

Yet there are cases of children and pets who clearly have no idea of what they're taking who had a benefit or solved entirely an issue from it, it's not only about a belief system, if this discipline is still is around and it is performed by traditional doctors, it means that somebody had benefits from it otherwise it would have been disappeared by now in more than 200 years like tones of old/ancient medical habits have been disappeared, then I can agree it doesn't work for anybody and it can't be applied to every disease reason of why like I said before here in my country at least it is required a traditional medicine degree to practice it, in my opinion it has to be seen like an alternative or something to take as extra support.

It's a discipline that exists since more than 200 years and it has its rules and theory to study that requires years, the 'filler' ingredients you're talking about are dilutions of different measures of different substances that varies for every kind of treatment and relative disease depending on the person and treatment, it's not the same for everyone that is why you need somebody able to find the right cure with the right dosage and it's not easy, not to mention it requires more time to see the result. The only fact not up to debate is that the general traditional health administrations/organizations don't recognize it, but here in my country you still need to have a 6 years traditional medicine degree and become a doctor in order to enter in homeopathy school that requires other 3 years of study, so not everybody can wake up and do it.

This argument is very complex and in my opinion there isn't an universal truth or falseness about it, even traditional medicine don't work the same for everyone, a certain therapy works for somebody like it doesn't for others. Certain people managed to solve their health issues with it and even if it was a placebo effect I think the most important thing is find something that works at the end.

I don't think a city is better than an other, you can have an amazing vacation in all those cities you listed, I think it's the company of friends/partner that really makes the difference, the money budget and not having bad luck in finding a bad situation or service that can happen everywhere.

For the same way of reasoning you shoudn't even use your hands to eat or touch your face like to apply a cream because you punctually clean your ass and genitalia with them everyday as well, ass and genitalia can be cleaned exactly like the hands and water alone is not enough for anything, you use soap and all the rest.

I mean he's a handsome actor with a great body who does tones and tones of events every year, let him wearing what he wants for change, especially giving he has the possibility from every point of view instead of wearing the usual boring dark suits, also I don't think he needs to 'rejuvenating' his imagine, he looks amazing for his age regardless of the clothes.

Gaga can't be the cup of Tea of everyone and that's totally fine and legitimate, but the common denominator of all these "attacks" coming from this small minority of veteran artists are always senseless takes or stories trying too hard and it's blatant, you can say whatever you want about Gaga but not that she's a 'culture vulture', her career and work speak for itself, even if she had a black manager for a period it's not like she was going around acting in a certain way or releasing a certain kind of music like other did for trends, the rest of the story sounds bizarre and senseless as well, not in line with the respectful behaviour she always displayed, also because why the hell she would want to have a veteran artist that does a certain kind of music that she doesn't even know personally to perform while doing a photoshoot, this wasn't certainly an idea coming from her.

I can be a casual listener of their music but not a real fan of somebody who doesn't have the whole package.

Chart stats are only known by a niche audience, I barely knew anything about charts before joining this board but I was well aware of projects and performances that defined pop culture.
