They definitely did but maybe you just hadn't tried them? I'm allergic to tomato so can't have BBQ but these have always been my favorite https://www.amazon.com/Better-Made-barbeque-flavored-potato/dp/B008A89I4I
Now, I kinda want to stop by the factory on my way home and get a box of them.
You're so right about them being better than Lay's. They're not as greasy and thin for two things!
Meditation can make you feel worse if you're doing it wrong.
Meditation is for the mind what physical training is for the body, and as with exercise, doing it wrong enough can lead to poor or negative results (though with meditation it's unlikely one could do it wrong enough to hurt oneself as severely as one can with physical training).
As an example from beginner levels, a common pitfall is called 'dullness'. Dullness causes reduced introspective clarity, dream imagery, pleasurable sensations, and suchlike, and it can be seductive. The impaired introspective awareness caused by dullness makes it hard to notice the onset of dullness, so it takes practice to recognize and avoid it. Several habits lead to dullness, but one of them is excessive focus on the object of meditation (conversely, insufficient focus leads to other problems). One of the several ways to avoid dullness is to keep the mind active by looking beyond the meditation object with peripheral awareness to keep the mind active, but once dullness has set in strongly its often necessary to use much stronger tactics.
Consistently meditating in a persistent state of dullness will train your mind to tend to seek and remain in that dull state and can leave you feeling mentally foggy, slow, or 'down' after meditation.
A primary purpose of meditation is to train your mind to behave as you want with minimal effort. Like "drawing the rest of the fucking owl" one could eventually train the mind without experienced guidance, but that's very difficult to do when one does not know how the owl looks, or even how to use the pencil effectively. As with learning to draw, to learn effectively one should seek out high-quality guidance. I like the book The Mind Illuminated.
> Meditation is life saving. But most people don't really know what it is.
Indeed. I'm a fan of the book The Mind Illuminated. It does a detailed, no bullshit job of explaining what one should be doing, how to recognize common problems and how to avoid them, and other such details.
Sitting and doing nothing or listening to a guided meditation program such as Headspace is pretty much the "Draw the rest of the fucking owl" approach to meditation. The Mind Illuminated is a detailed technical manual for meditation that shows you all the intermediate steps and explains in great detail not just what to do, but how to learn to do them.
I highly recommend it for anyone with any interest in meditation at all, whether they have an existing practice or not. It'll put beginners on the right path and point out tons of things those with experience may have missed along the way.
Yes, they can.

I think that different moral and social structures can either enable or slow down shit men. And not just shit men... I read some of the reports from the Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, and they did a really good job of digging as deeply as they could into when and why abusers abuse. One of the things they found was that many normal men turned into shit men given the right circumstances. (I got the same lesson from "Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland".)
One thing that they didn't say in the Royal Commission reports, but that jumped out at me, were the Biblical principles that were used again and again in religious institutions to enable and cover up abuse. I can give you chapter and verse for each of the Biblical principles if you'd like. The principles seem harmless on their own, maybe even admirable, but when you put them all together they create the perfect environment for a normal man to take a step into the dark side. (And all of the principles are important parts of Amish culture and theology, as it happens.)
It's like Solzhenitsyn said: "If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?"

Go to therapy. If you dont have insurance start reading stuff like this:
​
with a large grain of salt and take some of the core points. Any "self help" book is going to have a lot of fluff but the stuff about mindfulness and ways to hold onto positive moments are critical (even it they sound dumb and you 'know' all this already)
​
also start to add in different little changes to your life that you can track over time. Talking medium-term additions. Can be something tiny like going for a walk every morning before work without your phone, maybe journaling or reading for 30 minutes a day, or something bigger like adding meditation or volunteering. The long term, as well as the keeping track aspects, will help time pass as your brain adjusts to the new things, change is done by being the person you want to be at every turn you can. Some months you aren't that person at all, some years even. Some days you do one thing that way and the key turns and you start to notice the changes have finally settled. Each right choice you are lucky enough to make enables the next one to be easier. It takes a long time but you just have to start treating your life as a project itself and tinker until you find what fits. It may really just be one tiny thing or 5 years from now you'll find yourself happy in a life you would have found extremely not perfect at the moment.

They're not paying me, it's just helped me alot.
Author is a Cia or FBI (can't recall) interrogator, but his whole technique is be friendly and likeable so they trust you and volunteer information vs like torture etc.
Book is written really simply and straightforward like an army field manual. Tells you direct techniques to appear friendly and likeable in a conversation. How to get people comfortable with your presence etc.
When I actively read it the first time, I just tried the advice out talking to gas station attendants and the like, just to see. Within 10 minutes the guy broke down and told me about his divorce, his anxieties over custody battle, just really told me wayy too much. (Has worked for several people not just the one guy but oof.)
Really helped me and a bunch of friends I've lent it to. One friend called it "the closest thing I've read to a real like skill book from skyrim".
(Context: I am diagnosed ADHD and suspect undiagnosed ASD, so I have to manually navigate conversations, can't do it by feel. This book helped ALOT)
Hope it helps 🤙
Sure, here it is.
I'm not sure, I just reposted this image from someone else's post. But if you are looking for a good car phone mount, you can refer to the one I used.

So rare that anyone (cafe, restaurant, etc) can make my tea and it’s drinkable... I always ask for the cup size/water amount using specifics, and the components (tea bag, cream, sugar) to assemble myself.
and yes, hotel rooms are almost always set up for coffee drinkers, but tea is a definite afterthought if considered at all. I bring my own tea and even my collapsible silicon travel kettle seen here
This one says 45 second for one cup. I’m heating two (16 oz). Plus I’m heating two in the thing I’m going to steep the tea in. I don’t think your math adds up but what do I know.
Pour water into kettle, heat up water in kettle, pour water in mug doesn’t take 30 seconds.
Yes, they do. Here's one.
