Do inmates experience boredom in jail? Can you provide an example of something an inmate might do for fun if they were bored?

That's where you watch The Price is Right;

The perpetually tired don't think straight.

That's where you play cards and board games;

How long will it take for the USA to effectively remove it self from the global economy that many US politicians especially Donald Trump seems to dislike? Will this isolationist policy last after his presidency or will it be quickly dropped?

They lash out under circumstances where they would normally just let things slide.

That's where you typically shoot the shit with your fellow inmates.

What if Supergirl was a baby and not a teenager when she left Krypton? Who do you think will find her? What do you think things would be like?
