When I hear “I got fired for my political beliefs”, I think “they got fired for being a contrarian blowhard with no impulse control”.

I have a sleep disorder. I can no longer nap, have alcohol (at all), caffeine after 9am, and so on.
I also love napping and have napped my entire life when possible until recently.
Since I can’t nap anymore without ruining my sleep I now sit or lay quietly with my eyes closed and just rest. I set an alarm for 5-10 minutes and snooze for a few minutes over and over until I “get up”. I never really fall asleep so (reluctantly) ending this rest period is not that hard.
This doesn’t give you that same rested feeling but I can destress, lower anxiety, and so on. This absolutely has led to me sleeping more deeply at night, getting drowsy before bed, etc.
A little like meditation but mostly just taking a break.
He’s a humorist. It’s not supposed to be that funny. Just humourous.
Edit - was thinking of Steve Allen. Time to see the neurologist.
That’s just wild. I’m in meetings with slides constantly and never heard of this. We’ll, now I have a new rabbit hole to go down (as in “finding the most ridiculous of these”).
With each year that passes since the re-telling it gets exponentially more interesting.
Do… do people really buy add-ons for pp to enhance their slide decks?
Stock split to make him feel important. I’m guessing, of course. Plus he probably thought this make the company more valuable.
Just do a bit of the inside of a cuff or the underside of a hem.
Back in the day I used to spray my coat with automotive silicone. Doesn’t look great but your not getting wet.
You have this correct which I why it is so ridiculous that they not only agreed to hear this but did so in a way that both allows Trump to avoid prosecution and will result in a legal precedent that he can use to stay in office and commit crimes while there. Pretty great for Trump.
I didn’t even need to click on this. :)
Deep cut but so very representative of right wing people. They have two modes of supporting their arguments:
Rare: drown you in bs arguments (here are 350 made up examples of how the election was stolen) knowing you won’t refute each one. You give up, they think they “won”. This can come in the form of a 2 hour youtube.
Common: “I don’t need evidence, I just know”, “I’m telling you that most regulations are bad, but can’t give you a single example”, or "I am ignoring your obvious question because I have never thought deeply about this and can’t face that reality ".
My personal favorite is when they link a article that completely contradicts their point and refuse to discuss that.

Yes, that’s what I mean. Noone in their right mind would choose her. This was a forced choice and an indication that the lunatics were if not running the asylum, at least in charge of a big part of it.
The crosshairs are not figurative. Not sure the general public has understood this yet.
The beginning of backroom concessions to the crazy wing of the party that are so very, very obvious.
Imagine that feeling on your temple. Some people get mild headaches. I can tolerate it but it kind of feels sore after 30 minutes or so. Personal preference, I guess.
I really think people think no one will notice. If you are stealing time and resources from your employer, you probably lack respect for them or have an inflated sense of your importance or expertise.
That… never occurred to me. I am not sure if I can personally but if I can’t maybe a watch repair place could. Thank you, kind stranger!
Just to piggyback, this is a common way to deliver audio and is discrete but it drives some people nuts. There are lots of inexpensive bt headsets that use this. I’d try one before I spent a lot of money.
Good thing you don’t live in a 15 minute city, you’d starve! /s
