I think they’re saying that they eat equivalently rewarding foods that are more healthy.
You need to figure out what is absolutely important to you and what you can only get in a partner vs what you could get elsewhere. Sex, obviously should not be something you get elsewhere. The more things you say your partner needs to have, the smaller the eligible population and as a result the smaller the odds of finding a partner. Go where you can find people who share the same qualifications you require - for many that’s a church/temple/synagogue/mosque. For others it’s from a similar ethnic community.
Can we have something like this but for podcasts? I want to listen to JRE in the car but I can’t because he swears too much for my kids.

Yes that’s right. This is the verse-

गोपीभाग्यमधुव्रात-शृङ्गिशोदधिसन्धिग॥ खलजीवितखाताव गलहालारसंधर॥

Writing can be hard because sometimes we put up barriers to our thoughts, to our level of “what’s good enough”, to what is appropriate or PC to talk about, etc.

I think that’s why many great writers were alcoholics - it takes down the barriers we set up within and gives us the “liquid courage” to just say something and not give a s*it.

Re:The Birth and Death of the Office on Saturday June 11, 2022 @05:05PM (#31708401)
It is less the death of the office and more the death of work. We just haven’t come to admit that. Death of work and “cold” relationships and the retreat to home, emotional connection, nurturing, caring. Once employers know it’s more about that and less about work then we will see things turn around.

I grew up on onkyo audio. bummer.
Give me an afternoon at the beach, some beers, a little shade, beautiful people all around- nothing is more recharging for me.

Ask HN: How to work when you’re supposed to?

I have to write these long memos for work but I just can’t seem to sit down to focus and write them. I end up procrastinating to the last minute and then push it out in some type of mad frenzy. It doesn’t feel good but I can’t figure a way through it.How do you sit down and just turn the focus / execution on like a switch in the brain? For me I’m at the whims of my impulses, but it’s not...
