You gotta stop eating so much. /s

I am in the same boat. So many things that need to be done, but I just can’t ever figure out where to start. I always worked better when there was someone there to body double with me.

Let’s give credit where credit is due: this one is a W for you.

In my personal experience, I find knocking out small tasks (like folding laundry, putting laundry away — yes they are two tasks) is a great way to build up momentum for bigger things, but not always. And that’s okay. My goal every day is to do at least one thing. Just one. If I do more than one then I have exceeded expectations. Keep pushing! 👊

Jesus. The strength that woman posses for being able to stand up and keep moving forward in the face of all of those (stupid) obstacles. I hope she is able to overcome and prosper. 👊

There is no second date because YYYY-MM-DD'T'HH:ii:ss'Z' is the only acceptable date.

Just sleep bro you probably had a long
day

No one likes a bragger. 😤

I used to sleep in class. But only after doing all of my work. I had ONE teacher who agreed that as long as the work got done, and I wasn’t disturbing anybody else, she would let me sleep.

~Of course she was a first year teacher, so she probably didn’t know better.~

Can confirm: my youngest son would most definitely do this.

Best comment of this entire thread! 🏆

It could be a lot of things. I have learned that with how the world works there is no one single answer for why people do the things they do. So yeah, it could be ignorance as I suggested, a power grab/sense of belonging like you suggest, and/or something else entirely.

I also think people like this person in the article gets wha they deserve, regardless of why they are the way they are.

The problem isn’t so much about things becoming problems once they affect a person, it’s often that these people were never exposed to things affecting them personally before they became adults.

I am of the opinion that empathy develops best when people are exposed to life (for this exercise you are welcome to define “life” how you see fit).

While I have not personally been mistreated for my gender or race, and I have never had anybody murdered or abducted in my personal life, I have had a lot of other Bad Things™ happen to me that has developed a healthy sense of empathy. I can then use that empathy and apply it to those other situations. It’s like the analogy of lifting weights can train you to pick up and move heavy things (not just barbells).

People like this have led what I believe to be very sheltered lives. Maybe they were spoiled, never told no, whatever. As far as they ever knew the horribleness of the world only happened to other people (in books, papers, movies, and TV shows), who they were taught were deserving of such things, and that it would never happen to them regardless pf anything.

None of this is meant to excuse anyone’s behavior or lack of empathy. Never would I suggest such a thing. But it may help your sanity in having a possible understanding of how it might happen in the first place.

It may not; I am not presuming to know you or how you will react to anything I’ve just said.

YMMV.

So like talking to teenagers?

But most of the land that are considered continents are connected to one or kore other land, and thus couldn’t be defined as an island.

Though, after reading a few other comments, it seems the definition of what makes a continent a continent is apparently subject to debate.

~This is why we can’t have nice things.~

Not all continents, no. Islands are bodies of land surrounded by water on all sides, no? Wouldn’t Antarctica and Australia then qualify by that definition?

I’m not sure. I don’t usually watch a lot of TV shows, except I’m rewatching Stargate SG-1 and Supernatural. Both series have a dropdown in the UI to switch seasons. But, on the home screen under whatever category the show is under, it shows a different season than what I am watching; so I have to re-select the correct season.

Amazon does this where it puts you a season ahead of where you’re at.

Look at the founded part. It was Gregg Appliances in 1955. HHGregg in 2017. It’s about the timeline, Yugi.
