1 AnswerRunning2 years agoWhy dont Native Americans get the attention and rights they deserve?
no one is american like them. they went from living peaceful lives, then immigrants from all over the place poured in and relocated them into subpar and disgusting living conditions, shoving pipelines through their sanctuaries, and forgetting they exist.. As a muslim, I feel that they should be getting more attention and support then muslims around the US as well as other minorities. Why hasn't this happened
9 AnswersPolitics4 years agoIs my 200m time good?
This was my FIRST year in track and I m 13 years old so my times might not be too good. For 200m my best was 27.4sec and for 100m my best is 12.9sec. I personally think I have all the speed necessary to get better but I need to perfect my form for both 100 and 200. I qualified for the Meet of Champions for both 100 and 200 and I was the anchor for the relay team. So what do you think about my times? How should I improve? I know I have the speed, i just need to improve endurance and form, how CAN I DO THAT??

2 AnswersBasketball4 years agoHow to stop being treated like an *** by my friends?
Its honestly terrible. They try to make me feel powerless and it succeeds and it sucks, even my best friend sometimes does it. I understand how guys this age joke around, but i'm the only consistent target and i've had enough Im so pissed rn cause i dont want anyone to see that going on and every time i try to ignore them i just have to end up talking to them cause they basically make up all the dudes in our clas and i do have friends outside class, good ones, but i need good ppl w me in my class too and its rly actually dumb. Also I am terrible at roasting ppl so i dont even try cause I'm too nice for that. It honestly sucks i wanna kill myself, and also my twin sister is in my class and i get embarassed when these a**holes treat me like that in front of her. I just tell myself to put up with it till the end of the school yr but it just gets harder every single second. I'm so pissed off and i try not to be mean to anyone cause everyone knows im a nice person so i dont want to loose that reputation cause of those a**holes. I'm so pissed how can I get them to stop treating me like sh*t cause I'm not and I am better and higher then all of them and this isn't bragging, they KNOW IT but obviously do not want to admit it its so frickin dumb and I hate it so frickin much and I'm rly sad cause of it cause I had no friends up until 6th grade and I rly dont want to go back to that(8th grd rn) and so far it looks like i am.
1 AnswerFriends4 years agoBig O's triple-double season or Westbrook"s?
I think Westbrook because he single-handedly carried his team to a decent play-off spot, and he has so much pressure with Durant taking off last summer. For Oscar, back in 1962, triple-doubles weren't even a thing yet, he had a good team around him and he didn't have as much pressure as Westbrook.

8 AnswersFriends4 years agoWhy do girls grab their own asses sometimes?
Its weird. There was a girl in the hallway who had a nice *** who just kept grabbing her butt and almost squeezing it and I don't even think she knew that a guy was behind her(me). She was legit grabbing it. What does that even mean?
TBH it was rly hot lol, and i kinda enjoyed it(shame on me lmao). But I just want to know why some girls(usually hot) do this.
Also, its the same girl I've seen do it and its always the same person, no one different. and she didn't see me behind her so she wasn't teasing me(on purpose lol)
I just want to know, im not a perv
1 AnswerSingles & Dating4 years agoFriend thing? i'm confused?
So me and a friend(probably my closest) have been in a huge argument and both of us did something wrong. I admitted mine and he never admitted his, which is pretty dumbfounding, but anyway, we sit at the same lunch table, even after the argument, we just don't talk. so today, he was just sitting there staring at me. Legit staring at me like an owl for about 5 minutes and it was creeping me out. no one else noticed lol and it was pretty awkward. What was he trying to do? read my mind? can u help me?
Also, I really don't want to lose him i knew him since we were 4 and now we are almost in high school. How can we solve this?
1 AnswerFriends4 years agoHow to i earn respect from friends?
I'm nice its not like im mean to them.
my friends are nice and all but seem to not take me seriously because they think im the guy whos ok with being "insulted" cause im too nice to be mean to anybody. Im sick of that, and it feels like they wont have it any other way, almost like they r afraid to see me rise up and take their spots, so they try to deny and put down any good stuff ppl say about me and try to replace it with sh*t which is not even true half the time. I know ur gonna ask, "why are these jerks ur friends?', well cause they are most of the boys in my class so i kinda have to stick with them or ill be a loner. so just for this year how can i just get them to respect me and actually take me seriously?
I get this feeling that they r afraid of me getting respected cause my parents and all my teachers said i'm a leader, now whenever anyone talks about being a leader it pisses me off cause i keep getting this thought in my head and its terrible.
Please help me. Thanks :)))))
P.S.: I've tried talking to other ppl and stuff, if its a girl they'll instantly start shipping me w/her and its really bad. the same thing will happen if i use sports to get higher in the ranks cause they'll start saying "oh u prob spend the whole game on the bench, right?" and im like nah im the best player(which is actually true) and they downplay it which makes it look to other ppl like im trying to brag. So if u thought of that thanks,but it wont work.
Thank you so much for helping :)
