This exactly. If you really want to stay anonymous then use a middleman and do it anonymous to the recipient as well.
Everyone involved with the institution, students, parents who pay tuition, teachers, authorities who financially support the institution (…) have a right to know in whose pocket they are.

Use something mellow in a different language from your own, it is less distracting.
I like to listen to brasilian Bossa Nova like this Getz/Gilberto Album
Or something without lyrics like Yiruma if you like Piano music.
Why so complicated? You just get on and do what you want as long as you feel like it. Want to go fast? Go fast. Want to go up the hill? Turn up the resistance. Just want to pedal along for a while? Just pedal.
Of course you can set yourself times and goals, if that makes it more effective for you, but you don’t have to make it too hard for yourself by implementing rules.
You’d need the great Robin Williams for that and he is sadly quite unavailable.
I hate this so much.
My hp printer doesn’t do shit, if I’m not online and logged in to my hp account. For what if not for collecting datathey have no business collecting.
No advice, just shared frustration.
I hope to get a refund for my train ticket from last Thursday where the train was just cancelled.
Online request didn’t work, so I have to go to the train station today and waste even more of my time.
So they gain a Mediterranean sea. Doesn’t seem so bad to me.
That point should be everyday, every week.
To add: I use https://next-episode.net/ to check on series and new seasons, but not for tracking, but I think you could.
And anything books on Storygraph
I use https://www.icheckmovies.com/ to track movies and series.
They are based on the imdb database, but I trust them way more with my data than amazon owned imdb.
Its a basic, easy to use website without any frill and extras. Made by some dutch guys to track their own movies.
A Brazilian show called Summer Heat (Temporada de Verão) for an easy watch. I don’t have the bandwith right now for something deep and meaningful and this is just right at the moment.
I often see people post about things like that in my neighbourhood network.
Ask around in your neighborhood and on next door or a similar online community. Especially in cities there are lots of people around who love dogs, but can’t have one of their own. Some of them might be happy to spend some time with your dog during the day.
I actually did that for a while with a neighboring cat. Instead of hanging at home, I would just hang at their palce for a couple of hours in the afternoon to keep the cat company. This wasn’t pet sitting, just spending quality time with a pet that would otherwise be alone for the whole day.
“…because I objectify young women and I like it.”
Not the answer to your question, but I find it important to point out, that atheist and non theist are not necessarily the same.
A non theist isn’t necessarily a non believer who rejects all religion like the general understanding of an atheist.
The Dalai Lama for example calls himself an non theist and so do I as a Buddhist. Buddhism is a believe system, a religion, that does not believe that there is a god or gods. Some subdivisions of buddhism believe in divine beings you can turn to and pray to, but they all used to be ordinary humans, same as the Buddha, who obtained enlightenment and transcended into a higher form of being.

How have I not watched this for years? I used to have it on VHS and watched it so many times. Mainly because I was in love with River Phoenix and heartbroken when he died.
I need to find somewhere to stream it.
I’m not American, but in my culture it is not that deep rooted, that you have to care for your parents.
Maybe because we have a public pension system. But when the pension is not enough and a person has to relay on social security authorities will check the income of all direct relatives. Depending on your income you are obligated to support your kids and parents.
I watched a documentary about swapped twins in Colombia The Accidental Twins.
2 sets of identical twins born in 1988, one pair in rural La Paz and one pair in Bogota. One of the La Paz babies wasn’t well and was sent to a hospital in the capital, where the mistake happened.
They grow up as fraternal twins, because they are not very much alike. 20+ years later they somehow run into each other through friends.
Imagine someone tells you “Hey, I met this guy who looks exactly like you” and you check out this guys social media and there are pictures of the guy, looking like you with another guy that looks exactly like your twin brother.
Seriously, such a wild story. Super interesting and heartbreaking at times.
