I find with stuff like this it's important to understand the context of when it first came out. Had a neighbor say he didn't get the appeal of the Ramones because a lot of bands sound similar. I told him when the Ramones came out NOBODY sounded like that. Another is David Letterman. By the time he retired he was nothing special but when he first started it was groundbreaking.
Most of the time just the headline. If it's obviously opinion I'll often skip. If the headline is a question I'll usually skip. If it's an obviously horrific story I'll skip. If it's something that is relevant or useful I'll read. You are what you eat. That applies to your eyes and ears as well as your mouth
I quit playing video games in my mid 30's. Pretty much went cold turkey. Why would you want to start now? Plenty of healthier things to do with your time
"for your kids sake" is the only part that should be relevant. This is for you to decide. If the answer is no that's ok but you owe him an explanation. If the answer is yes you have it in you to make everyone else uncomfortable
GOP runs adds attacking moderate Democrats as far left liberals and beats them in every swing state. What the hell do people think would happen to an actual far left liberal?
One of my regular customers is a factory that's been around 100+ years. My contact there was a maintenance man who retired and was difficult to replace. The young guy that replaced him gets caught jacking off on security cameras. They give him a stern warning and he gets caught jacking off again. Fired.
Sitting in my work van at a red light i spot a woman approximately 150ft away exiting an office building through a revolving glass door. She's pushing the door when it comes to a sudden stop. Confused she gives it a forceful push before realizing an elderly woman was trying to enter the same door and had become stuck half in half out and that why the wasn't spinning. With an embarrassed look on her face our eyes lock and we both start laughing. Our interaction was wordless and brief but I still remember it after 30 years
When driving in snow or icy roads it's worth knowing that there are times where it's best not to panic and slam on the brakes. Sometimes it's safer to take your foot off of both the brake and gas pedals particularly if there is little danger of colliding with what's in front of you. Every fiber in your body may be telling you to hit the brakes but you have to ignore it, similar to encountering a bear in the wild and your body wants to run. It's counterintuitive. I highly suggest finding an empty parking lot full of snow and driving around. Try to make the car slide. It's best to learn in an environment like this. Same thing goes for when your car drives through a puddle of water or just as importantly when half your car drives through a puddle. Two tires locking up while the other two get no traction can cause a spin out or loss of control.
Staying dry is just as important as staying warm. Melting snow on a mild day can soak your feet. Sweating from dressing too warm can make you clammy and cold. Minor adjustments in your clothing like removing or adding a hat or gloves can make a big difference. A scarf or neck gaitor can make a big difference.
Another driving one... check your driving app of choice for traffic before you're leaving the house. Be patient. Know when to put your foot down and tell your boss it's just not worth it.
Lastly, take up a winter activity. You may find yourself (like me) looking forward to winter. Buy cross-country skis and it will never snow enough
Getting paid for it crosses a threshold I'll bet
