I've been trying to do this with intention myself over the last year. Some things that worked for me: - Get a dog! Seriously, going to dog bars, dog parks, and even walking the dog are all great opportunities for spontaneous social int

For anyone reading this and intrigued by elevator inspections, I highly recommend The Intuitionist by Colson Whitehead. It's a fun, fiction read!

Huge +1 to this. It sounds like they may need to switch therapists. I’ve had personal success with therapists that have expertise in CBT, DBT, and IFS. OP may also want to explore mindfulness/meditation, which has been a huge QoL impro

Generally agreed with this, and I had a similar experience. I think overall it comes down to trying to help them build empathy by showing them that they aren't the only one that will have to interact with what they build, as they are a

There was also a ruling last week explicitly overturning certain gun regulation laws. See: New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen [0], which overturns a law that has stood since 1911 in New York State. Based on Gallup data [

The book “The Science of Stuck” by Britt Frank is the best I’ve read about this. She has an interview on the podcast You Are Not So Smart that could be a good low-effort way to think about it. It’s been incredibly helpful for me. She review

Born a crime by Trevor Noah. It’ll make you laugh and cry, but it is so good and inspirational. The audiobook is also phenomenal. Untamed by Glennon Doyle is also great, though is more geared towards women. Also, the stoics. I’m enjoying th

Huge +1 to this and also to resistance bands. They fold up and can fit into a drawer. You can get a lot of value starting off from just bodyweight exercises as well. YMMV, but the app FitBod has done wonders for me.

I really enjoy The Browser[0] newsletter for this reason. They find very very good articles that often also end up on the front page of HN. I’ve found a lot of great new blogs / magazines this way. —- 0: https://thebrowser.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I really enjoy YouTube Premium. It’s nice to have the option to pay for an ad free experience, which is particularly useful on iOS mobile as uBlock origin doesn’t work. Having the ability to easily down

One rule I have for trying new exercises is to try it five times before giving up. This is particularly true for classes with an instructor. The first time you have absolutely no idea what’s going on. The 2nd - 4th times you are starting to
