► It's all about communication today -- and you are right in the thick of it all! You may find yourself chatting with total strangers even if that's far from your typical behavior. Enjoy it! Someone is sending you clear signals right now, and try as you might, it's impossible to deny what's going on here. You're definitely receiving a romantic love vibe, and you may not quite be sure what to do about it. Go ahead and enjoy the positive attention -- it's always nice to feel wanted. The next step is even easier for you: If you're interested, flirt right back; if not, back out of it graciously and send them on their way.

What the hell in his mind when talking about nuclear? Extermination of human life? Oh, no. Stop it! Do not ever do that! Let us make technology to enhance the degree of human civilization. Do not create a range of equipment to kill fellow human beings, understand? If you do that, it means you have been enslaved by technology. And there is no reason for a slave walking on this earth with smug over the dead lying because of his stupidity, because the dead can not give applause to you. If you want everyone to die except you, then what's the point you keep alive? Of course you have the right to not answer my question, but you will feel lonely because your cruelty. If you can not destroy your instinct to kill humans, then not only to those who you consider your enemies you will kill them, but also to your allies. Well, it is not impossible, as you can destroy the U.S., you will also destroy Russia, China, Iran, etc.. Because what is the difference between killing your enemy and killing your allies, hm? They are all equally human. We may differ in principle to all things, but it can not be an excuse for us to kill each other, understand? If you feel you can't be a leader --- because let alone to lead your people, even to control yourself you can't afford --- then you should be replaced by those who are more capable.
