I have T-Mobile and don't have this toggle, so it's not all accounts.

Edit: Well, ain't that some shit. I have it in the app, but not online.

I just started a diet and this is challenging my sanity.

Am doctor, can confirm. Don't trust lying morons on the Internet.

I was just saying earlier that I would kill for a good bagel place in town.

Hell, I'd kill for any bagel place in town.

This is correct.

However, having that information tied to your account at all is a little problematic, as you can only leak the data you have. No name? Can't leak it.

Pretty sure they don't exist in nature.

Ah yes, the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything.

How many digits of pi are necessary to calculate the diameter of the visible universe to within the diameter of a single electron?

I get you, fellow father. Fortunately for everyone, I don't do the cooking, but I do all the rest. And Mom has a talent for maximizing dish usage. I wouldn't be surprised if she found a way to use a ladle in the process of making a cheese toasty.

What helps me is to remember that I'm providing a clean, non-chaotic environment for my kiddos, and they'll never have to experience the pitfalls of a chaotic home.

Mom is grumpy. The honey-do list keeps growing, but she's always got some event or activity or trip planned last minute for our family every weekend. I've said all week I'm taking this weekend to start crossing things off the list, as she's gotten pretty insistent that it needs to start shrinking and we're hosting family for a party next weekend. But now that it's the weekend, there's some event she wants us all to go to, and I've ruined it by refusing to go this time. It's the silent treatment for me.

On the plus side, kiddo thinks drywall mud & patching is incredibly interesting, so we're having a good time with that.

his songs/poetry are terrible

To be fair, Tolkien's songs/poetry are terrible. He was a great writer, an amazing storyteller, and an unparalleled world-builder. But he was not a lyricist or poet by a long shot.

The songs and poems do convey a lot of information and help build the world. But that doesn't mean they're good.

I was primarily a PC gamer. Life happened.

Time was already tight. I was working 2 jobs totaling ~80 hours a week. About the time I finally quit one, my computer let out the magic smoke. Rent went up, replaced my beater of a car, bought a house because rent was going up again, found out I was going to be a parent, house needed work, replaced my SO's car, fixed fire damage to the house, SO quit their job, found out I was gonna be a parent x2.

Things just got busy fast. That computer blew the magic smoke 6-7 years ago now. I've saved up the money to replace it several times, but something else more important always comes up. I'd still love to replace it and game again, but I've been out of it so long that I don't even really know what games are out anymore or what I'd like to play, and honestly I get more joy out of occasionally playing Smash Bros on the Switch with my first kiddo. The game is ok, but time with the kiddo is valuable.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today.

Today is always a good day to make the world a better place. Don't add to the inertia.
