I don’t disagree with the parenting thing, but it has a finite amount of value. Toddlers and young children are inherently illogical and irrational creatures. It’s great to explain why you want to them to do something, but you have to know when to put your foot down and pull rank. Listening to a grown-ass person arguing with a toddler and losing is pretty sad.

Ugh, I had the same thing happen once, as a tourist. Walked into a subway car with my buddy thinking "look how dumb everyone else is, this car is practically empty!" Doors close, train starts moving, and the stench hits. There's a very dirty homeless fellow at one end of the car with feces sliding down his leg. I could see it at his ankle because his pants were ripped open. Got off and changed cars asap.

Being broke and dumping almost everything you've got into crypto is almost as dumb as being broke and dumping almost everything you've got into the lotto on the daily.

I had a gig scanning photos and typing up records of an entire school over a summer break. This was back in the 90s and the school records were going digital.

The whole time the boss played Christian rock recorded live at Godstock (some sort of religious festival anyway). At ear-bleeding volume.

Man I WISH I could have had a gig researching vintage porn music.
