This was really informative! Thank you for sharing

I’m a Linux Administrator. I maintain machines that think.

I don’t get why people are down-voting you. It’s a perfectly legit question that I’m thinking about myself. I’m not a lawyer but there would be ways to shield yourself legally I’m sure.

Bless you for this photo

I have meat at least

I tried using opera years ago before they switched to the blink engine. I uninstalled it right after installing it and finding out that it made itself the default browser without asking me.

Keeping to a resolution requires resolve which is an emotion. You need to introspect and make sure that the resolution that you have chosen is consistent with the price you are willing to pay whether it is monetary or a personal desire. Prepare yourself for the cost. It’s easy to say you’re going to give up alcohol but your mind is going to try to sabotage you every step of the way. Keep your goals to yourself and meditate on them. Take some time out of your day to cultivate the feeling of resolve within you. Literally just remember the feeling you have when you have felt determined to finish something and cultivate that feeling. It’s a fire that burns within you that can become stronger if you feed it. Finally, don’t get discouraged when you fail. You will likely fail a lot but that doesn’t mean you should give up. Keep to your resolution even if you keep tripping up.

You get a yearly vacation and sick days?

All the alternatives I’ve tried never get the flavor right, not even close. Most are way too sweet.

The simple joys in life. My relationship with my hubby, cooking a good meal, having a decent cup of tea, reading a good book, there are so many reasons to enjoy life.

I feel like the director knew exactly what type of movie he was making too. As bad as it was, I always crack up thinking about “Daddy would you like some sausage?”

Didn’t realize he was pumping out more books since I read the first three in grade school. Excellent series!

In the same way that physical therapy provides you with an environment, tools, and professionals that help you physically heal, therapy helps you with your emotions and thoughts. Therapists may offer advice but the main purpose of therapy is to give you a safe place where you can work through your emotions which can then lead to a better outlook on life.

Often times the reason why we get stuck in a rut due to a bad job, money issues, relationship issues, is because we haven’t taken care of our mental health and poor mental health will exacerbate those issues. If you are doing therapy while all that is going on, it will help you get in a better head space where you can start taking care of those issues or at least mitigate the trauma that they cause.

You think he’ll be singing the same tune when his speakership inevitably crashes and burns?

I’ve worked IT for over a decade and most of my work clothes I get from thrift stores and Costco. More important than the cost of your clothing is knowing how to match colors and patterns. If you’re going to be working a helpdesk position, they’re probably not going to expect a custom tailored suit unless the company is Goldman Sachs or something. You actually look really good in that button-up IMHO.

Lol, read that headline again and tell me you’re concerned about the cost. The death penalty literally costs more than life imprisonment in the United States. What would be your lower cost alternative?

I think they’re being facetious. Not that I’m defending the behavior. It would almost be funny if the source material wasn’t so fucked up.

Put each in a 5x5 cell with a light that never goes out. No human contact, just them alone with their thoughts for the rest of their miserable lives.
