And we wonder why Jordan Peterson telling someone like this to make their bed blows their whole mind.

I LOVE it!!

Zikes.

I mean you could do worse, clearly.

you’d think it was an Onion article.

And not even like a good one.

The part that gets me is that syntactically and lexically it makes perfect sense, so you actually have to think about it before realizing it’s totally worthless. The old signals of quality and care in communication are meaningless.

People with poor critical thinking skills are going to be fucking lost at sea this coming decade. They have no tools to tell what’s worth believing anymore.

Bribery.

Have you considered giving all that profit to one bald man, though? Think of what you’re missing out on! 🚀

5 weeks seems like a good minimum to shoot for, yeah. Even with technically “unlimited” vacation, I tended to take 1 week a quarter, 2 in the summer, and then whatever Christmas to New Year’s is. I wish I could take more in the Summer of course, but it is what it is.

This has got to be fake, or engagement bait, right?

May I suggest silent tandem reading

I think it makes sense when you consider there are many government workers who do not support the genocide of Palestinians, and would be more vocal about it if they the political capital that, say, a large protest nets you.

It’s actually possible to end this with only the ingredients we have available right now.

Awwdly specific

Me too—sometimes

I just got into them and I’ll be damned if I’ll let some toaster ruin a perfectly beautiful bit of punctuation

You’ll always feel old, and you’ll always look back at yourself a decade prior and marvel at what a fool you were for feeling old back then when you were really so, so young. This is a universal experience.

I didn’t really get going on anything until my mid 30s. I just cleaned floors and answered phones. Ended up meeting another late bloomer. We both graduated from mid college programs at the end of our 30s, and now we’re both limping through our “careers” in our 40s.

Yeah it might have been better if we started earlier but we didn’t. And I sure as fuck look back at myself at 30 thinking how even with 000 to show for it I was still young and full of future, even if I felt like an ancient loser.

Not medical advice, but I got used to wearing shoes indoors after years of office work, but taking off my shoes when indoors and actually using all my muscles to hold myself upright, has lead to a real reduction in discomfort.

If you’re used to shoes all the time, it HURTS at first to go without and you have to take frequent sit/stand breaks. This is GOOD and you should listen to your body and continue moving in ways that make you feel better.

Your point just reminded me that if you’re capable, that one of the simplest mediations you can do is work with your muscles to keep yourself straight.

I’m literally scrolling my phone while side stretching because my back hurts just from a4 hour sitting shift rooofl 💀

Better ergs? More pillows? Shorter sessions?
