I traveled a thousand miles by bus but it was direct with only one “rest” stop and it was also overnight. Went to sleep on my way out of one city, woke up on my way into another.

I’ve also done longer trips with multiple stops and changing busses. I brought a book. It was fine.

When you’ve got less money and more time, it’s a good option to have.

Their beauty is beyond compare.

Coffee “beans” are closer to cherry pits than any real bean.

I’ll check it out, I had it bad this weekend.

I’m sure even non-Ameticans can tell the difference between an uppercase and lowercase letter L.

Or is it masturbation?

Not all libertarian-leaning people are on board with corporatism; IMO freedom is for people, not businesses.

My experience as well. Though I avoid political munis these days.

There’s dozens of us!

What they get is blaming others for their problems.

This was the one that made me think, oh, I might have ADHD!

Huh, I’ve always been a tea drinker rather than coffee, and I’ve always found tea more calming that coffee or caffeinated sodas. This could be why.

Excellent write-up. Will it also work from threads?

If I know long long it takes to get somewhere, I will somehow find myself leaving the house with exactly that amount of time, leaving no space for delays. This is bad. So instead I’ve started saying “I’m going to leave at this time, which is definitely more time than I need” and then not looking at a clock when I get there so I never find out how much closer I could cut it.

The other strategy is to plan to eat when I get there, before whatever it is starts. I will be motivated to get there with enough time to eat.

You slid it over one shoulder, not like a messenger bag, and hold it there with one hand as you walk.

Are you going to say why, or is this just a plot to drive traffic to a video?

Users are kinder, discussion is better. There’s no need to drive engagement so there’s no algo pushing conflict and outrage to the fore.

As a former RIF user, I use Jerboa.

I only found three, and two of them were the gimmees in the second paragraph.

No, there’s only one of her.
