With that baby around, I think it’s you who needs to worry about surviving a 20-story fall.
Technically I’m an archaeologist, I guess.

I’m pleased that she’s experiencing the fallout from all this, but whatever logic she used to calculate that political risk is baffling.
Four John Wick movies have grossed over a billion dollars on the conceit that harming a dog is a legitimate emotional catalyst for someone to kill 450 people.
Dopes to Infinity and Spine of God are stoner metal bangers, JIC anyone here isn’t familiar with their stuff from before Powertrip.
I’ve also liked that their later stuff walks a line between glam & sludge metal.
I think I can speak for everyone that this would be the ideal arrangement.
I’m a light sleeper with a loud mind, as well, so this kind of thing has always been a problem for me. The two main things I find helpful may not do the trick for you, but here goes:
First, trying to force myself back to sleep always just ramps my brain up worse and makes it more difficult than it already was to fall back asleep. I stopped trying to force the issue, which has counterintuitively sped up the time it takes me to fall back asleep. I don’t get up or engage my mind with anything significant, but if I’m awake, I’ll put soft music on my earbuds or scroll on my phone set to the dimmest setting. I may not fall back to sleep immediately, but I’ve found that lowering the pressure on myself to fall back asleep makes it happen more readily than when I spend 2 hours and 45 minutes being like “if I fall asleep right now, I can still get another 3 hours. go to sleep. fall asleep. sleep will happen… now!”
Second, I’ve increased my oversell magnesium intake. I know you said no substances, but I feel like this is different. There have been a few studies–popular science type stuff, nothing peer reviewed that I know of–indicating that magnesium improves sleep quality and the ability to return to sleep if woken up. Might be the placebo effect, but I don’t care because I’ve noticed an improvement.
Sorry you have to deal with this flavor of insomnia, too. Super sucks.
You’re fun.
I wish I would have thought of it first this time 😔
Yes.
I already ate more sugar than I should have. I’m not going to drink the runoff. I also don’t drink the mostly-salt broth from instant ramen.
Not to be dramatic, but I’d rather die.
My wife and I have done White Castle table service every year since we’ve been together, except for the year they didn’t do it because of covid.
It’s a lot of fun, but I don’t think there will be tables available on this short notice.
I hope he’ll be okay. With $2 billion liquidated, his cash on hand is only the average lifetime earnings of 1,176 Americans.
Assuming the average American starts working at age 18 and stops working at 67, that’s just 57,624 years’ worth of American wages.
It’s a shame he’s considering exercising another $6 billion of his stock between now and the end of the year just to get by.
He liquidated 12 million Amazon shares for approximately $2 billion last week. It’s the capital gains on that sale that OP’s article is referring to.
Unless you meant cash, in which case you’re probably right. I don’t think his brokerage settled the sale with briefcases of $100 bills.
When I’m really stressed out, I’ll put on repetitive beep boop music and draw floor plans on graph paper.

I am loathe to praise any entity benefitting from student loans, but I will say that Great Lakes was competent. The website functioned, they had [mostly] enough customer service people, their customer service people could answer your questions, and they billed you the correct amount at predictable intervals.
It’s a sad bar, but it’s more than MOHELA can manage. Godspeed, friend.
I was moved from Great Lakes to Nelnet a couple years ago, and then almost immediately transferred to MOHELA.
It’s astounding how shitty MOHELA is. It’s almost impressive. Literally every single aspect of the experience is godawful. The only way it could be worse is if they actively tried making it worse, and even then I think they’d probably accidentally improve a few things.
There are local prefixes I will never answer no matter what. I’m looking at you, 243 and 422.
I love their recipe for no bake cookies, though! Just 12-15 minutes at 375°, and you’re good to go.
Nanny state foolishness. It’s just crewed spaceflight, not rocket science.
