Yooo I'm about to get over $100 (idk how much exactly, it just said over $100) in the mail and idk what it's even from. I'm thinking it might be a deposit from a landlord because it's some real estate company I don't recognize and an address from like 10 years ago. Anyway, thanks for the tip!

The other comments pretty much cover everything. No caffeine or alcohol, take a low dose of melatonin (I take one that also includes zinc and a couple of other things), and try to keep a steady bedtime. That last one is the hardest of all. I set an alarm to take melatonin and get ready for bed so I don't accidentally stay up too late.

I also smoke weed every day and have had great success with taking CBD for sleeping during breaks. You can even get CBD/melatonin combos, but I've never tried one.

It's a subspecies of the long tailed tit called a Shimaenaga in Japanaese

What a weird publicity stunt this would be. Do people actually feel bad for him or something? I'm from the US and only seem to hear about Nigel when he gets hit in the face with a milkshake or says something horrendous

I imagine they aren't actually that upset and are just looking for a way to make some money?

Wonder what he's up to now? He lost the election, but still got like 45% of the vote

Snow bunny has had the "white woman who only likes black men" meaning for at least 30 years or so. I'm 40 and recall hearing it as a kid, but it was in Alabama

Literally everything should be like this, fuck naming stuff after a person. Most of the time it's just the first white dude who wrote about the thing anyway. Animals, theories, buildings, rename all of it

my usaian brain was like "are there more poor people in the South?", but then I remembered not everyone has to pay out of pocket for healthcare

I learned how to code (barely) in my 30s and bullshit my way into a dev job for a big corporation. I've been doing it for like 5 years now and I still don't really know what I'm doing a lot of the time. I've gotten really good at using copilot/gpt to check my work. Copilot especially seems to save me a lot of time. I'll write some code and then let copilot look for improvements, simplifications, etc. It's not quite at the level where I trust it to just write all my code from a prompt, but it can use context from the rest of the file (or other files) and really does a good job most of the time, especially if I give it a lot of info in the prompt too.

It's GREAT at writing tests for code. Like I can just about give it something like "write some tests for this file", but it still makes small mistakes here and there or it'll give really generic names to things.

The predictive text function, where I can start typing out some code and it'll give me options for the rest of it, I've found to be incredible, but that tech has existed for quite a while now so I'm not as impressed by it

What's funny is the main reason I did it is my plug also had ADHD, but he's a black guy with face tattoos who smells like weed all the time and doctors wouldn't give him an rx at all
