My ADHD brain can’t focus well on cleaning unless I get that weird hyperfocus on it. Last time I got it it lasted a couple days and I got a Lotta things done. It was nice.
Ah yes, turn the important but not urgent task into an important and urgent task ! But it’s a balancing act to keep it below the “overwhelming task feels impossible so let’s just ignore it” threshold
As someone who just had a one shot with three couples and one guy who murderhoboed until he had to leave to take care of his pregnant wife, I find this stereotype funny as hell.
38 here. Back pain started last year. Exercise is the way to go. I do weights about once a week now and the pain is gone and I am in better shape in general.
See a physical therapist. They’ll train you on how to perform strengthening exercises properly to take pressure off your spine. It can be expensive depending on your insurance (if that’s a concern), but if you are consistent with the exercises it can definitely make a huge difference.
I (somewhat cynically) recommend yoga. I hate that it works, but over the past 6 years I’ve gone from inflexible achy gym rat to the strongest/most flexible I’ve ever been. And old injuries seem to be fading, but that might be unrelated. Either way, can’t deny that it did something really good
Mine was so bad I had to get my wife to put my socks and shoes on for me for a few weeks. I was only 30 at the time…
A friend got me this book and taking its advice was the best thing for me.
Chiro didn’t do shit for me but physical therapy (this book) did. Now I work out regularly to include straight leg deadlifts and my back feels great. Still working on flexibility but that has also improved.
Capitalists need workers to oppress. Without them, they would have nothing to give them a feeling of superiority. Mincing people into fertilizer would surely be a fun pastime for the rich, but it’s hardly a sustainable hobby
You have a rather one dimensional moustache twirling view of the world. Let me guess, communism is the one stop solves all problems in the world solution without any negative side effects?
You do understand that that is not how the world works, or for that matter, how anything works?
Seriously, your comment is plain nonsense. Yes, captialism has a shitload of issues. Yes, there are rich and abusive people out there. Yes, communism is responsible for countless millions of deaths and tortured…
Instead of making up weird fantasies, how about to try to come up with an idea that would actually make things better?
Thinking about how to make the world better starts with fantasizing, and moves on to theorizing and debating ideas. Calling the many decades of socialist and communist thought just fantasies goes beyond all reason. At this point you’re just ragebaiting. This is not how you talk to people.
Communism as Marx described, has to do more with the complete automatization of the means of production, and the subsequently change of the structure of society, as a result of post scarcity.
Remember that just past Mars humanity has a near infinite repository of resources, it’s only on this earth that we are subjected to the rat race, when we have the wealth of the universe so close.
You may think that I’m dreaming, but if we let capital unchecked, it will destroy us, and destroy earth. We have nothing to lose but our chains.
I am all in favor for heavily regulated and checked capitalism. Like it or not, its the most successful system and it can be a source for good when heavily regulated and used as an input source for a socialist system that takes care of all.
I came ridiculously close to blowing my hand off as a kid, the one kid in my circle of friends with the internet printed out a few copies on his dot matix printer… anyway one Saturday morning a group of us decided to try make a tennis ball bomb, it was just snapped off matchstick heads and the strikers stuffed through a small cut in a tennis ball and then tape the ball up. So pooled all out money together and go a dozen boxes of matches, tennis ball and a roll of duct tape and sat at a table in the park snapping off match heads. Once we made it we headed back to one of my mates flat and someone threw it up again a wall while the rest of us hid behind a wall looking over and… Nothing it hit the wall and bounced off and rolled around before stopping on the ground, we all waited and after a few minutes someone gave it another go with the same result, after about 10 attempts we were all out and just picking it up immediately off the ground and throwing it again. After about 15mins it just turned into a game of us throwing a ball against the wall and catching it before it hit the ground… Now I ran to catch the ball off someone else’s throw and i was about a foot off catching it when it exploded with a fucking boom, bits of tennis ball flying all over the place, you couldn’t see the shit but you could feel it hitting you on the way passed. Our reaction was fuck that was cool, let’s make another one…
I haven’t flipped through one in since I was a kid but, if I remember correctly, it actually did contain a bunch of recipes for cooking meals. Pretty much all of them were horrible ways to add marijuana to spaghetti and stuff like that.
