There’s a great YA book about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boy_Who_Reversed_Himself?wprov=sfla1

I’ve had good results managing it by planning my week very loosely: I write down 1-3 things I plan to do each day (including work, exercise, cleaning, leisure, seeing friends, appointments) and it’s just enough structure to keep me moving without being stifling.

My favorite thing about this meme is that whenever it gets posted we get to hear these stories. I’m glad it got better for you!

I think it’s getting that from a McSweeney’s article: https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/faq-the-snake-fight-portion-of-your-thesis-defense

The words were in the text of a (real) headline shown in the video.

I agree with you completely; I’m surprised that people are upset as well, but there are plenty of people in this thread who feel that the question unreasonably attacks men and is deliberately inflammatory.

Hypothetical question posed to women: would you rather be alone in the woods with a bear or a man? Many women said “bear”. Many men took that personally.

This is a plot point in The Accidental Time Machine: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21608.The_Accidental_Time_Machine; the main character

Nah, this was definitely outsourced to a company in India; you can abuse contract/vendor employees with way less effort than it takes to abuse full-time employees.

Yeah, in an article talking about how news stories about crime often show pictures of tents, they pointed out that the photo is of a crime scene, but the crime was not committed by those living in the tents.

It’s such a great game! The unlocks are paced really well, it always feels like you’re accomplishing something.

Lingo too! Gosh I wish I could forget Lingo and play through it again.

I bought this and am reading The Lost Cause now, and it’s really good! An actually hopeful near future that deals with climate collapse with open eyes.

This was years ago. And I did try a note! It didn’t work.

I switched to standing-only at work about 10 years ago and it’s been great, except for a 2-year stretch where the cleaners in the building I worked in would somehow find a free desk chair and push it under my desk every. single. night. So every morning when I got to work there’d be an office chair sitting on my standing mat and I’d have to find somewhere to put it. I tried moving it far away, finding a chairless desk on the other side of the building, but somehow they kept finding me a chair I didn’t want and rolling it onto my mat. Eventually I got a little guest stool and would pull that over onto my mat when I left, and that worked as a decoy chair and kept them from adding a chair. Maybe this comic was about them.

The first time I joined a gym, they gave me a free orientation where one of the staff asked me what I was planning to do and showed me how to use the gym’s equipment to do that stuff. Results come from consistency, and consistency comes from goals, and even a short conversation can help set good goals that are achievable and that can support consistent behavior.

It’s not Canada as a whole, just tankies.

Lingo was amazing! My husband and I played through it together; he’s better at 3d navigation so he navigated, and I’m better at word games, and we had a blast. We should try some of the custom maps!
