Super awesome. Not only is it white and shiny aluminum oxide, it uses a nanostructure, as observed on beetles, to maximize reflection, minimizing heat retained.

It depends on a lot of factors. How serious you are into candles, how much money you make/have/want to save, and if there are any scents you want that are hard to find as candles but available as oils

Is this why in Arrested Development they keep renaming George Michael after sex criminals?

It's almost like "hate the sin" means "judge people" which is something god did politely ask us not to do.

Yes, because the mentally ill and the old and the unlucky deserve the tents.

The issue is some parents have more resources than others. If you, your family, and everyone you know is poor, what bootstraps?

Yes bootstraps are physically impossible, but I he point still remains. Parents are not made equal.

Bezos may have grown up poor, but his parents did finance Amazon to the tune of $250k which is closer to half a million now.

He still effectively inherited the capital to start a business. My parents could never just invest half a million in a business I would want to start.

I've been having the same issue. Then I saw a meme implying it's laziness is a caching issue? I'm going to try clearing the cache daily (or more often if I am using it a lot) and seeing if that helps Spotify be more spontaneous
