Spend less time doomscrolling on the toilet and anyone could have the 10 minutes to enjoy a coffee before heading off to work.

A lot of people do it at work before starting, grab a joe on the way and get in work mode at work.

The problem is, too many equate their time to lost money, so they feel guilty about those moments, yet waste them on social media or something instead.

    In other places, a deductible is what you pay to get insurance coverage for an event. So yes, it is essentially that to the rest of the world. If you break your arm, you pay your $100 deductible or whatever it is, and the entire cost of everything for the procedure, is covered by insurance, no matter the final bill.

    US insurance is a joke.

    I mean hitting your finger with the hammer is also a possibility.

    How is this supposed to happen in nature? Does the water current ablate it enough? Get eaten and dissolved by a fish?

    I feel I would miss too much if listening, as that would be a parallel thing I would do while choresing or working. I don’t think I could just sit there and listen to a book, I skip dialogue in games if the speech is too slow already, and like listening to music or nature while reading already.

    Halfway through Dungeon Crawler Carl book 4, loving it.

    After this it’s Star Wars The Crystal Star. I’m really looking forward the next series, these standalone ones have been a little meh lately, but could just be the authors.

    Struggling my way through Star Wars Planet of Twilight. Kids are out of school so harder to find dedicated time to read, but I also didn’t enjoy her last book either. After his is Dungeon Crawler Carl book 4.

    This author (Barbara Hambley) just seems to want to describe everything as much as possible, yet there’s nothing to base it on. Yeah sure you’re talking some trees, but what are they? The lore just seems so empty.

    I’m planning on grabbing some more Asimov books and grab most of Martha’s MurderBot series, as well as Hugo and Nebula collections.

    Any other sci-fi type stuff you guys recommend? I’m not a huge fan of the more fantasy stuff, although I agree Star Wars falls into that catagory.

     

    Had my second carpal tunnel release surgery last week, so I couldn’t resecure the fan correctly with only one hand.

    And now, the strong Cree Cob white lights are burnt out, so now I’m left with just the supplemental wavelengths and some smaller white LEDs. The Cree ones are a LITTLE strong for vegetable starters anyways. But these aren’t enough for this stage either now.

    Gusto Halia

    Jubilee
