Meh, although I'm conscious of the possibility I might be seen as a creepy old guy in his mid-thirties, I still find that hostels can be fun. I don't necessarily want to go out partying with 20 year olds, but an occasional few dri

This is something I've considered wanting, and I'm glad it exists, but after some thought it's absolutely not at all what I want my Kobo to do. Much like how I wouldn't bring headphones or a Bluetooth speaker with me on

That may be true, or maybe you need to try some other things, including different medications and different pursuits. Fwiw, I've been taking Concerta 27mg since being diagnosed. Haven't really felt much of a need to experiment wit

I am now and have in the past been in this sort of position, albeit not with an existing completed degree under my belt, just a simple one-year continuing-ed diploma and years of sporadic career experience. I went back to attempt to complet

It's still disappointing that they botched the MX Master 4 with a slow polling rate and still stupid high cost. My V3 is getting long in the years but I wouldn't pay more than it originally cost for basically the same hardware nea

I do get the impression from people who don't have multiple physical/outdoor pursuits that they perceive the landscape of being fit to be either going to the gym and being regimented, or not going to the gym, and everything else i

I feel like relying so much on supply is a farce if the supply is always able to be bought up by people who are already rich and able to continue owning everything by outcompeting working people. Building more has started to mean little to

It's quite beautiful, but also a bit scary that it can pop up all over urban areas on the west coast of Canada/U.S in Autumn, as well as in the forest. I'm not sure if it's common enough knowledge for people to teach the

This is something I've been concerned about. Out of work again for the something like the 7th time this decade, I'm not sure I even care to try and get another one. Unless a place is super low key and actually tests relevant skill

Most people can't will themselves to even drink coffee without sugar and cream to dampen the bitterness. You care enough to make your normal coffee at least quite good, but maybe not enough to obsess beyond that, and that's fine,

I'm on the west coast but the prices aren't much cheaper elsewhere if at all. It's way cheaper in Japan to get ramen, but probably much more expensive to get sushi, which is maybe the last value oriented quality meal I'm

I don't think this is unique to Ramen at all. Burgers should not cost $20-30 for some limp smooshed beef, a burrito should also not be $15-20, and tacos should sure as hell not be $3-5 per tiny taco. It's all bullshit; none of tha
