There are a lot bad games out there, and not everyone likes every type of game. So try highly rated games from various categories. Just be aware that video gaming consumes a lot of time that you could use for productivity in other areas of your life. I play video games pretty regularly, but I also turn it off when it seems excessive.

I used to have a VPN subscription, but most of the places I really wanted to block just blocked me instead. Lots of important services didn’t work, and it was a constant pain. So I just let the subscription expire when it ran out.

I’d bet good money that a skilled malicious actor could find out exactly who you or I am within a single day. Most people don’t even use anonymous email addresses, and any admin log showing their email address, combined with an IP address, would make tracking then down trivial.

It depends entirely on the tech stack it’s hosted on. If it’s hosted on an elastic server then it can support more people than there are in the world.

And musk, and about a dozen other names including Biden, Harris, and Bernie.

People consider it to be trashy, despite the fact that it’s actually helpful, and it tidies up the table if the waiter is busy. I think it’s considered poor etiquette because rich snobs would never perform the tasks of the paid servants. Those tasks are beneath them. So if you want to be seen as fancy, you need to act as if they’re beneath you as well.

I know someone who watched their coworker come into work absolutely hammered, sit at the front kiosk thing and yell at customers, piss their pants, and pass out. They didn’t have a job anymore when they woke up.

Uh… That’s gotta be the lowest possible profit way to steal someone’s credit card funds. She could have just spent the money on the cards.

Because they’re heartless.

Did they not realize he wasn’t coming in anymore? How did he continue getting paid for a month?

Plus fluent in Spanish opens up travel to pretty much all of South America, Mexico, and Spain. There are differences in dialect, and some South American countries speak Portuguese, but you’ll still be able to communicate.

There are also french speakers in Canada.

Sand and lack of oil.

Or a worn clutch?

People that drive 20 under the speed limit in the left lane.

I’ve been thinking about writing to the police chief, my politicians, and possibly starting a grass roots campaign in my area to get police to start enforcing impeding the flow of traffic laws. It’s infuriating how much of my time gets wasted by obvious, slow-ass drivers.

The trope in movies where everyone drops their guns and does everything a psychopathic murderer says, because he is holding a gun to someone else’s head. Congratulations, you just got that person and yourselves killed. He’s not going to suddenly have a change of heart and become reasonable just because you dropped your only means of defending yourself against him.

there is no effective short cut

As someone who quit by switching to vape pens, I strongly disagree. There are multiple studies that show a success rate of greater than 60% when using vaping as a smoking cessation device. The next closest method is 3%. 3 fucking percent! Guess who owns those methods? It’s the tobacco companies.

Get a quality vape device. Start with 18mg tobacco flavored vape. Try to always vape instead of smoke, but don’t beat yourself up if you smoke. Just keep doing it. Eventually you’ll notice that you’re vaping more than smoking, and some time after that you’ll realize that you haven’t smoked in days. At that point you’re basically free. Throw your smokes away and keep vaping for a month or two or three. Then reduce your nicotine concentration to 12mg and keep vaping. Then reduce it to 6, then 3, then 0 mixed with 3, then just 0. You’ll naturally quit within a couple weeks after switching to 0. You might want to switch off a tobacco flavor at some point during the process.

I didn’t think I’d ever be able to quit smoking. I wanted to, and needed to, but I couldn’t. I tried all of the other cessation methods and none of them worked long term. I tried the above and it fucking worked! The best part is that it wasn’t hard. It all happened pretty naturally.

It’s important that you get a good vape device that gives good throat hit and feels like a cigarette. Don’t get a massive cloud machine, and don’t get a rinky dink disposable device. Try to get one with a round mouthpiece that is the same size as a cigarette.

You can totally do this! If I can do it, then anyone can do it!

WTF?

And possibly hacky sacks. People who play hacky sack seem pretty happy.

Happiness is fleeting. Sometimes you’re happy, sometimes you’re not. I was told as a young man that what I should seek instead is contentment, because someone content with their place in life will be happier more often. That said, a lot of people find satisfaction and happiness from helping others. Volunteering, and being a part of your community gives someone a sense of belonging, and purpose.
