It happens to dads a lot too. Earning some kind of gold star for just pulling your weight parenting.

When confronted with an unjust law, a good citizen feels the need to disobey it. Compliance with an unjust law is complacency, and eventually you allow it to become part of the social contract. That is why it is so important for those with nothing to hide to oppose any and all unreasonable searches and seizures. That is why all jurors should know about nullification. That is why bodily autonomy, the missing right in the many, needs to be exercised and covered as a religious freedom (TST). It is your civic duty to defy unjust laws.

Here’s another mind bender: not making a decision or delaying it, is itself an impulsive/compulsive decision. Sometimes indecision or inaction has consequences. Sometimes decisions that paralyze you are inconsequential. You never have complete information. Making a decision is doing the best with what you have in the moment.

Earplugs. When the world is too loud, turn it down.

September can be just as hot and more smoky. Good luck.

• pine nuts
• ostriches
• bees

That story is so cursed.

This isn’t anger it’s resentment. Resentment is a poison pill that you swallow, hoping it harms your enemy. The only way through is to forgive. Or you can carry it around the rest of your life, if that feels right for you. Revenge isn’t going to bring your mother back. If you want to be at peace, make peace with it.

It’s because they have the highest oil content of the tree nuts.

Maybe just avoid pumpkin seeds as they’re sprouted and full of magnesium. Peanuts are probably the best nut. But yeah all the seeds are full of life force energy, which can really put your head in the clouds.

Unless there’s a recall, which I’m not sure there could be for an aftermarket device, they will remain mostly unpatched. Unless this becomes the next Kia boys thing and insurance companies look to mitigate their losses.

24 hours is the perfect full time amount. That’s three 8h shifts, or four 6h shifts (without lunch), or maybe even two 12h shifts.

The web is very locked down already. People click so many links from email, but also outside of email. Clicking a hyperlink in an email is not a threat vector. If it was, we can’t vote on when to meet, open shared documents, or basically do anything other than plaintext email. Aha! That’s the solution. Plaintext email - all attachments and HTML are blocked.

Hot water on tap. Refrigeration including air conditioning. Laundry machines. Bread. Beer. Fresh Air. The Sun!

Have you tried withholding sex? Just like distance yourself to a roommate. Then if you can sleep in another room, do that and go to bed early. Then with a little space you can decide in a few months if you want to stay or go.

I tried to make the case to IT that hyperlinks are not a threat vector on their own. They should train against opening attachments and entering credentials once the link is clicked. I haven’t heard back yet, I’m not sure they liked my message. But they did send a message letting us all know that reporting non-phishing surveys wastes their time.

Bar end mirrors may also work better on drop bars. For a wider city bar the mirror is on a longer lever, which amplifies the texture of the road. I don’t feel like I need a mirror, but it’s mostly because I haven’t found them to be more useful than using my ears.

For text maybe make your own Unicode scrambler - selecting readable letters from random sections of Unicode. Readable to a human but to an LLM they won’t be able to parse a word out of it. For code, maybe change the file extension and add metadata that is misleading? Or just don’t put your code online.

We know a lot more about when the mammoths died than we do about the construction of the pyramids.

Maybe you’ve got better roads than I do?
