Therapy is maintenance (at the very least). If you haven’t ever been to therapy, you’re driving around without an oil change.

What Russia and every other country on earth now knows is that you cannot trust the United States if you disagree with them

If any country pays attention to US foreign policy, they’ve known this for decades.

Yes, because there are ways to avoid and navigate major depression. Better to learn them in times of peace than in the middle of war.

Online dating is essentially a startup pitch. You spend weeks reviewing ‘applications,’ then finally meet for an in-person ‘investor meeting’ to discuss potential ‘synergies.’ If things go well, you can initiate a merger, but if the market shifts—aka they’re not into your favorite TV shows—you’ll quietly dissolve the partnership and move on to the next opportunity.

I tend to observe other cyclists when I’m driving.

So I guess I’m saying that I’m surprised by the results of this study.

That’s because you’re using anecdotal evidence. If you are looking for cyclists breaking the law, you’ll find it because of your inherent bias. This is precisely why studies are needed to back up what we think may be true but aren’t sure of. We have to cut away our biases.
