"But if we make a plan in advance, let's say the day before that, 'Tomorrow I'm going to get up at this time. I'm going to get my stuff together and I'm going to go to the gym,' we're much more likely to engage in that activity."

Im my ALL IN THE FAMILY rewatch, and it’s nuts how much this show remains relevant. Archie Bunker operates on fear. It’s his default setting. Fear that he’s not important, that he won’t get what he wants, that other people are having a better life than him. Carroll O’Connor was a brilliant actor.

Bluesky is great and all but it's a bit of an echo chamber. It's depressing to go on other social media platforms - scroll to a news report on the murder and the comments are filled with people parroting the BS from this admin. I don't think trump is in as much trouble as we'd like to believe.

ChatGPT is like your best friend who will walk with you down a dark alley. Then run. Afterwards, it will console, upbuild, & say how brave you are.

Perplexity is a snob. It sound biased & won't laugh at lols 😆

The new Pitt episode is live and I'm so happy to be back with my hospital Dad and all his hospital children.

Especially that one. (But also that other one. You know)
