They definitely do. Some of those trucks do 90 degree turns to face racks in way narrower aisles than you would think possible.

It depends. For me, they probably helped with the major depression along with the talk therapy, but I still had a persistent depression for a decade after that. I do know someone who seems to just have had a purely biological depression; the pills were magic for him. And I can't help but to recommend therapy; a therapist who is a good fit for you is immensely helpful. Maybe they'd help you find patterns; like maybe you find you only get depressed when you don't get enough sunlight (a real thing)

Of course ideas aren't flowing when you're in crisis worried about getting pushed out into the street. I have a career that's related to my passion in life, and sometimes that career feeds me and other times, it's just a hard job that drains me. I don't think your jobs needs to be your passion, but is your job something that feeds you? Someone who can string words together has a brain that is extremely employable. You could always find a temporary gig while you figure it out.

I beat depression after 18 years. In hindsight, it was slow upward progress I couldn't have done without a therapist, and it stalled sometimes for years, but I kept trying the same things in different ways, pushing myself in small or large ways out into the world, and eventually it worked, and I'm free. That's all to say that there is hope. I may carry scars still, a decade later, but right now I have normal problems, like money, and I still have add, but these problems are so much easier.

Wikipedia says 48 CE is his first probably authentic letter. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauline_epistles The gif says he had his vision at 35 CE, not that he wrote his first letter then.

No. For instance, a depressed person might be very self-focused and thus unable to empathize for obvious reasons. Antisocial personality disorder (a sociopath; psychopath is a word very misused in fictional accounts to be fully useful anymore) is someone who has so little empathy that they feel no guilt for harming others, and it's a lifelong condition that is apparent by adolescence.

English has a specific order for this thing: tick tack, chit chat, hip hop, ping pong, tic tac toe... always i, a, o.

and netflix costs way more than the others, so you might save money swapping something else in for a while

Just the can of tomatoes and some oil boiled is a decent sauce.. just cook it for 30-60 mins, maybe stir it. Add salt to taste. Honestly, a 28 ounce can is going to wipe out the taste of dried basil and dried parsley anyway. If you have access to it though, fresh garlic, fresh basil or a couple fresh tomatoes cut roughly and mixed in will turn it into one of the better sauces you've had.

Charge $40, make it clear the price is firm and that they must do pickup and take all of it. Ignore anything that questions the rules. Then you get someone who wanted it or at least thinks they can flip it or something. Then go out to lunch knowing you got rid of it and it's not smashed up sitting in a neighbor's driveway.

Those are forbes estimates, which aren't perfect. It's feasible he could be hiding more assets or debt, but the real estate is clearly his, and clearly exceeds his publicly known debt.

Most of that debt is actually the lawsuits against him, and he does have about 2 billion in real estate by conservative estimates. He's known to not have that many liquid assets right now, so most of the rest of his money is in Trump Media stock or DJT (which would be hard to sell without losing a ton of value). Looking at the stock tickers, his net worth, including debt, goes from about $2.4 billion to $8 billion, depending on the day.

Frenchies are just giant panting masses of dense muscle. No spring could make that puppy fly

That's the thing... maybe, maybe not. Our bodies are fairly resilient. There's no amount of mercury that's good for the body, but at low enough concentrations, it doesn't do anything worth noting. The brain is pretty resilient; it's a bunch of meat your body makes sure stays within certain thresholds of temperature, hydration, etc. So the risk of plastics is scary because it's unknown what they do. But the unknown doesn't imply much. Pretty sure it's not beneficial, but not necessarily harmful.

The city does do a lot for homeless people... many, many, many programs because these people have a really diverse array of issues that led them to the street. For instance, SF does better at giving families places to stay than other cities. There's just never enough capacity for everyone to have a bed, and the general consensus is, until someone has a place to stay, all the mental health counseling and job training you want isn't going to help them

For people who have a connection to another city, family, etc, these programs would usually make sure that there's some sort of stable environment for the person to return to, like family who says they'll have a place to stay. One year, the city gave 1,000 people bus tickets that way. This new program the mayor is pushing doesn't have the same requirements... they'll just give you a ticket to leave, but it hasn't caught on, and a couple other "ticket home" programs still exist

But yeah, the sweeps are real and there's not enough shelter space for all those people

"Beating the market" doesn't make sense in the context of day trading because the market is volatile in the short term. What metric are you beating?

Day traders can make positive trades somewhat easily (things tend to go up), but they have a tough time beating capital gains taxes and a tougher time making an actual living.

Beating the market is a long-term lesson. Warren Buffet had an open bet that no mutual fund could do better than an S&P index fund (the market). One did better, not by much.

We were learning about ph testing different substances with strips. One of my classmates started playing with the ph 1 acid, flinging it around and didn't understand why I got mad when he splashed some around me. "Surely, they diluted it so it wouldn't be dangerous."
