Yeah I was with Shaw before they got monopolized now I’m trying to eek my way out of Rogers (they’ve been kindly upping my bill monthly the last 3 months)

The day has not come that I’ve found a subscription worth the monthly rate. A little off topic, but I even pay a bit more for my Internet bill so I can dump its ass on a whim if I like, and I use that daily (hourly). Canada has SUPER predatory telecoms, keeps them honest

I gotta be honest the responses were as funny as the post was alarming XD

Latest fan theory just dropped huh? I dig it

In fairness, it did before, it was just previously forehead wrinkles of consternation™️

Interpretive this!

This is an excellent summary of supporting your beliefs meaningfully and not letting class warfare define yourl life. Saving this, well written 👏

I can’t remember if it’s pseudoscience or actually validated (we’ll assume pseudo), but I’ve come across it many times: there’s a running commentary in psychological development that only 33% of humans ever reach mental maturity, true adulthood. The vast majority land at adolescence ans stay there, with some never getting much past 12. To me, this has been the single greatest explanation of why ppl behave the way they do, somewhat comforting at least

Thank you, I’m also a huge fan of spinach! I also love lazy wordplay and alliteration - I’ve been thinking of making an alt account called lethargiclettuce just cuz haha. Your UN also made me smile for the same reason haha

Not everyone carries your value system. Get over it.

Perhaps not, but he openly admits he does his best. That’s enough

You respect where your food comes from. Enjoy your well-deserved comforts, haters are gonna hate

Let me tell you, this got a genuine lol approximating the same amount of shock she must have felt. Well played, author, well played

I guess by guy 60, you get to be creative about your stabbing?

“Torso: done; arms, legs, neck: also done. Hmm, maybe groin? Nah, too obvious. Feet? Too kinky. Right in the right buttock. That’s the one worth being remembered for”

Gives a new meaning to handschuhe

Depends on the person, I think. I hate my phone, and keep it as a requirement to stay connected in a modern world.

The knock-on effect of that is that I’m constantly overdrawn, and have little energy for the ppl who reach out to me, nvm the ppl I’m now supposed to reach out to.

Just my experience but I don’t think totally invalid

If I remember from my degree, its a quality of depth/focus issue. Your brain settles into a task and unpacks that task (with all kinds of consideration for mental load, familiarity, etc). This takes about 20 minutes to get properly focused.

Switching the context pops you out of that task, and then your brain has to resettle into the new one. You don’t get a bonus for switching between only two tasks, it takes about 20 minutes each time.

So multitasking is effectively ruining your own focus everytime you switch, which is why they’re slower - you restart the 20 min clock every time you switch. Ppl doing familiar tasks can switch a little faster, and sometimes there’s a level of quasi-multitasking where you can work on automatic - but it has to be below conscious processing to happen (e.g., driving and then not realising how you got where you’re going, or you’re already intimately familiar with a file at work). It doesn’t quite count because your conscious processing doesn’t come into play, so it’s not really switching

I use the term “animal byproduct” with a great deal of reluctance here
