If the road in front of me appears unobstructed, I should be able to check my blind spot without falling in a ditch.

Imagine if the freeway had features in the middle of the lanes that could total your car. People would lose their minds if it wasn't fixed.

I'd say it was more like seeing the cops come during the robbery, firing a few rounds off in their direction while trying to run away, and then having them charge you for handling a weapon while intoxicated.

They aren't wrong, but seems like a few charges are missing.

Did you read the article? He woke up and purposely drove into the officers vehicles. This wasn't an accident.

Ironically, doordash had "you don't need to tip, we charge the fee to pay a living wage!" as it's original way to differentiate itself from you having The Pizza guy deliver.

Back in beta there was no tip option.

I stopped using them when they started to have separate tips for the in house staff and the driver, plus a 20% fee. Turns out your can pick up your own hot food faster for much less money.

Probably no amount.

We aren't crazy wealthy, but we have enough equity in a high value real estate market that if we sold our house and moved to many places I'm the world we could live well without being required to work. As a result we have asked ourselves many times: "where would we go and what would we do?" And don't have a better place then we are (near both our families) or our current jobs. Our kids are in school, so traveling is limited, since we don't want to make home schooling our job.

The only thing I wish we could afford is first class airfare when we do fly once a year or so, but I wouldn't call that life changing.

Or just do a three bean chili and skip the meat.

If I said, "San Francisco can be warm too" would that make warm a noun? Because I was taught that it was an adjective.

Conservative means resistant to change. No one mentioned the noun form.

Especially while driving. I found that if I felt bad for idiot drivers as their lives must be much harder than mine due to their latent impatience, rage, or incompetent, I was much less stressed. Just let them get on with it, slow down, and get home safe.

Now I almost never drive and that has helped even more.

This is what we always did to give new life to our rooftop reindeer. They were also from Costco and it seemed like their bases didn't match any other string.

Hedgehogs. Damn cute and eat slugs and snails.

Agree that meal boxes are a good training step. We started using blue apron and after we got the hang of things, realized how much cheaper it would be to buy the ingredients on our own. The bottles of sauces can be pricey up front, but once you have a collection of them, cooking is easier and cheaper. Also, people are really impressed if you can impromptu make something without having to go out shopping.

I felt like a true adult when I decided to make hummus one day and just happened to have everything for it.

For me, I needed a therapist and meds. I was walking, gardening, had hobbies, biked for transportation, meditated. Sometimes you need chemicals to fix a chemical problem.

In my opinion, it is another way to get value out of the user instead of giving value.

Managers have to do very little work in terms of understanding the skills of their employees if we do it for them.

A huge step I found in terms of my mental health was to refuse to give reviews anymore, in any form. I am now able to enjoy my experiences a lot more without looking for reasons to critique them.

That's why I get all the boosters.

Saw Backdraft when I wasn't supposed to. Still have to have the door closed to sleep.

I tell my students that going to a challenging class and not participating is like going to the gym and watching people work out. It is not only fairly useless to your goal of improving yourself, it creeps out everyone else and makes it feel like an unsafe place to try new things and make mistakes.

I've recently found that it is way easier in your thirties to make friends with 70 year olds. They have time to meet whenever you are available, have great perspective and in my case, share more if my interests than people my age.

Try gardening groups, dancing lessons, bridge groups, local language classes, and you'll find tons of friends!
