Never stop seeking out new people and activities:
1. Say yes to most social things as a default answer. Resist the urge to retreat into your own space.
2. Figure out what skills you might want to learn and then go find adult classes for them. You can just pay people to teach you new stuff!

I remember having two main thoughts during the GOT finale:
1. "This will work much better as a Dany POV chapter"
and
2. "oh god all of this tracks, this is all set up in the books. I've wasted so much of my time"

We no longer have “laws” or “a Constitution” constraining Trump, we have “decades of legal precedent” that he can decide to follow, or not
“an extraordinary break from decades of legal precedent” is a weird way of saying “illegal” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Trump moves to fire members of EEOC, NLRB boards, breaking with precedent
The dismissals target two independent agencies that oversee swaths of U.S. workers, employers and labor unions.

I'm sorry bro. If the Trump administration is impounding half the federal budget, and is about to send out emails requesting that all 2 million federal employees resign, Democratic leaders need to immediately be organizing mass non-stop protests in DC.

yeah that’s exactly what happened
Almost certainly what happened here is Trump got cold feet on the tariffs, backed down without a fight, and is now lying to save face.
