Dating apps work fine if you know how to date. Met my wife on PoF. Never had any issues getting dates on any of the programs and I’m a 5/10 at best.
If you have a very unique profile and provide thoughtful engagement to potential dates, you will find a partner eventually. I know it can feel like a slog sometimes, but it’s still a lot less bullshit than you’d get dating random strangers the old way.
Swimming, cooking, and self defense are the big ones I always bring up. All three will likely be really useful throughout your life.
You may not feel the need to learn to defend yourself depending on how safe your area is, but I still think its more important than people realize. Learning the physical skills as well as deescalation techniques taught in martial arts can easily save your life as well as others.
I think you’re confusing the hemlock tree https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsuga
With poison hemlock https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conium_maculatum
The tree makes the best bedtime tea I’ve ever had. The herb is a common poison notorious for killing Socrates. You’re still technically accurate, but they’re very different plants.
This simply isn’t true at all and I have no idea why you would even make that up. Pine is the most diverse family of conifers with over 800 different species, many of which are used in a variety of cuisine and teas. I’ve been chewing on white pine needles all my life as they’re known to be rich in vitamins and help reduce dehydration.
Then there’s the fact that almost all species of pine produce edible nuts. The species that produce the largest nuts are cultivated for commercial sale which is why you can find pine nuts in high end grocery stores and fine cuisine.
Pretty sure The Most Unwanted Song takes the cake on that front. It has bagpipes and opera rap! Good luck listening all the way through. https://youtu.be/-gPuH1yeZ08?si=NRXK7GH9qnDbGt3H
