I’m a camera operator for sporting events. I noticed they had one of these at a rink I shoot at in a small town and chuckled.

Now that they’ve realized it sucks I wish they’d take it down so it would be nice for it to stop getting in my shots.

It’s gonna be real confused with the amount of beets I eat

Very informative. Thank you.

You mentioned the lightning port. Is there any difference with the newer phones with USB-C when it comes to these functions?

Also, in the BFU state, iPhones at least, won’t allow any data connections through USB

Them too!

That’s great. Now do housing!

I guess that would be ok too

Then you could drunk drive from the couch to pick up your friends!

I feel like someone needs to point out that this saying is often conflated with the idea of 15 minute cities.

The idea of 15 minute cities is that people want their amenities within 15 minutes so they don’t have to drive.

It is not an idea to keep you confined and take away your ownership of things.

I struggle with depression and choose to deal with it without medication. I have a loose mental health routine… more like a list of things to do on a daily/weekly/monthly basis.

Daily:

Shower

Eat

Spend a minimum of ten minutes cleaning my space.

If not working, spend at least 20 minutes outside; preferably doing some kind of exercise, but just chillin’ is ok too.

Weekly:

Attend some kind of social event. Doesn’t mean anything huge. I got in to D&D and that takes care of that one most weeks. Regular social activity is important.

Monthly:

Clean the bathroom! (Preferably bi-weekly)

This is not a complete list of things I do to help my mental health, but they’re the ones I force myself to do even if I don’t want to. It helps.

I also follow a general guideline I learned in therapy. Keep track of things you’re doing and put them in to one of three categories: professional development, self care, recreation.

The goal is to spend your waking hours doing these things evenly. (I suppose sleeping counts as self care in the right situation)

I’m a former addict. Been clean for 4 years now. I learned these things in recovery and the whole time I thought to myself “This should be a high school course. You don’t need to be an Addict to benefit from this stuff.”

Anyway, these things truly help me and I hope they can help you too.

Whoa, SkyNet doesn’t need terminators. It can just bully us in to killing ourselves.

Just out there bein’ a dick, huh?

Well, good luck!
