Many things in life are traumatic. Me leaving the Catholic church was traumatic for my parents. My years-long girlfriend cheating on me was traumatic for me.

Does trauma for the 1% outweigh the benefits of the 99%?


Did I say that it does? The post above mine asked if it mattered. It matters, but it is one factor among many that goes into family planning or sexual relationships.


With medications, 1% chance of a traumatic side effect is indeed considered very serious.


What kind of breathwork did you do?


Circular but without outside supervision. Not sure if I did something wrong or if I need some customized practice. I am often running out of breath/out of sync breathwise when singing, often getting lightheaded effect which I do not like at all.


I'd not heard that Feynman quote before, so thanks for sharing; I love it.

I'd include writing, art-, and music-making in that category.


Looking at the first few questions from the survey, this seems geared specifically to work-oriented book clubs. I.e., book clubs in a professional context. FWIW, I was hoping for/expecting one that was free of those associations. It might be worth spelling that out more explicitly on the landing page.


Thank you for the feedback! The app isn’t specifically centered around work-related book clubs, and it can be used in any Slack workspace. It's just that Slack is often thought of as a work tool, so that association tends to stick. I'll make sure to clarify this on the landing page!


That doesn't solve parent's (and my) problem.

I have collections of tabs in different windows and I assign those windows to different spaces. Every time I reboot Chrome all windows are assigned to whichever space is active when I launch Chrome.

I seem to recall that Chrome used to remember these assignments, so maybe it's not a macOS problem, but rather a Chrome problem...?


Btw. Zen Browser or Arc have great management of spaces in the browser. You can quickly switch between profiles without unloading them. So you can be even on a call using work space and switch to personal space. This way you don’t need to have separate windows per profile unless you need to see the content of both at the same time.


This is also how I use Chrome with spaces. I’d love someone to solve this problem.


Yes! Would love a solution to this.


I don't know that people say 'jazz is dead', but it's certainly a shell of its former self. Wanna make a living playing jazz in 2025? The odds are stacked, massively, against you. Wanna earn enough to buy food for your dog? The odds are slightly better.


If you enjoy this style of writing - TFA's, not D Brown's - then check out The Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest[0].

Here's a sample:

"Space Fleet Commander Brad Brad sat in silence, surrounded by a slowly dissipating cloud of smoke, maintaining the same forlorn frown that had been fixed upon his face since he’d accidentally destroyed the phenomenon known as time, thirteen inches ago."

The article reminded me of Philomena Cunk's narration.


Per the below, seems it's not available to many yet.

I was raised Catholic but no longer practice. Many Christians don't believe they choose Christianity. They believe they are 'called by Christ' to serve.

So, I think the analogy, at least for those people, holds.


I don't think this gets mentioned enough. Rush Limbaugh was the result of the doctrine's abolition. You can draw a straight line from Limbaugh to Fox News, et al.


WNYC's "One the Media" have done just this:

"How Rush Limbaugh Paved The Way For Trump" (2021)
