i have recently gotten a harsh response from lemmy about this, but i am 100% with Ms Freeman on this. i WILL NOT vote for Biden and i would sooner die than vote for Trump.

i absolutely think this is a valid response to our current situation.

… maybe we should keep the costs of industrial chicken farming where they are and save this one for critical care in the hospital?

remember back when biden was a senator? yes, he did that.

are you yes?

i told the recruiter that my student loans were serviced by Sallie Mae. he told me that, for certain, my loans would be paid by the G.I. bill. i was desperate to move out of my parents house.

it wasn’t until the day before shipping out, the day that i raised my right hand and swore an oath, that i found out he lied. i went anyway and didn’t get my loans paid.

they will say ANYTHING.

try to develop a routine around it.

set a start-time and adhere to it every day for a week or so. make sure to plan out ahead of time the VERY SPECIFIC actions that will set you along your goal for that particular day. you don’t have to plan the entire activity but, for example, before you get out of bed lay with your eyes closed and CLEARLY VISUALIZE the first several steps you will take to practice guitar…

(10:30am)

1- open the blinds, let the sunlight in.

2- pull the amplifier over and power it up.

3- remember the tune from yesterday? hear it. how do those fingerings go again?

4- oh yeah, grab the music paper and pencil.

5-… and you’re off!

only after you have a very clear idea of what, exactly, it looks like to get yourself going, do you attempt to begin. no plopping down and hoping for the best.

good luck!

i have downloaded tens of thousands of dollars of audio recording software. i always told myself that, if i were to ever make money from my efforts and usage thereof, i would be happy to pay the author.

i never made any money. but i hope the right people got paid by those that did.

If you’ve ever heard someone refer to a TV remote as a “clicker,”

Baba is You is my jam! but so many levels i just give up too easy and peek the solution online. i am not as smart as i wish i was.

i am going to conversationally refer to Dewayne Johnson as ‘the brick’. hilarious.

i thought narcissism is when you ONLY care about what others think?

you want a publicly funded entity to enforce a personal grudge? yes this definitely does sound immature.

new AND novel?

also fresh and different!

oh dear.

i got all excited when i read “moto edge” cause it’s been a long while since i last rooted my phone. but now i suppose i will hold off on excitement until there is more clarification on your question.

fun story…

ive seen Elton John twice. the second time, more than twenty years ago, i was able to present a rose to him on one knee during the encore.

my friends and i were in the front row and had set up a folding chair up against the stage. it was quite a leap to get up there and i immediately ran for the side of his piano. security rushed in on me rapidly but i was already on one knee reaching out with my head down, so Elton shooed them away.

i love Elton John.

then title should read:

New research has found that youth who are prescribed stimulants to treat their ADHD are neither more nor less likely to become addicted to drugs later in life

accuracy matters.

are you sure you got that title right?

from the article:

Conclusions and Relevance This study found no evidence that stimulant treatment was associated with increased or decreased risk for later frequent use of alcohol, marijuana, cigarette smoking, or other substances used for adolescents and young adults with childhood ADHD.

i want people to get what they need. but i see no reason to propagandize.

IIRC, it wasn’t too long ago that we didn’t have any images of black holes… their existence was only theoretical.

no. click on the link to visit the linked page. let’s not get silly.

i was under the impression that “new battery technology” had us done with that sort of thing? tis a bummer because i don’t really see how i can wake up in the middle of the night to unplug the thing.

but i really appreciate the advice. i am definitely interested in extending my battery life. 👍
