I am using RSS for keeping up on news and I defintely prefer it. The main thing I am missing is game notifications. Even if it could email me or show up in my calendar

I strongly believe The Office should have ended when Michael left. His departure was perfect and if they had ended the rest of the show there, they would have finished the show on a high. Instead it dragged on and it became a shell of itself.

If I can advocate for Parks and Rec's end. I will say that they found a way to wrap it up very well giving each character a satisfying ending to their arcs. The new characters are defintely forgettable and sour the later episodes a bit, but it is worth it for the conclusion.

I feel like everyday this guy finds new ways to lower the bar for himself.

Lol, all producers care about is getting thanked in a speech.

Lol, I like this better than the one that is supposed to inspire you to work forever and never question the purpose.

I think it depends on your preference. I worked out at the gym for many years before covid and after the pandemic I built a home gym with a power rack, barbell, adjustable dumbells, and cable machine. Biggest advantage of this is not having to share a rack with anyone. It was sometimes annoying to have to wait for equipment.

What I'll say is that I really appreciated starting at the gym as I got to have access to every machine and workout equipment. This let me build a workout plan over years and get a good idea of what sort of equipment I would need to stay active. I also found it helpful to see what other people were doing at the gym. Some people clearly have no idea what they are doing, but seeing what other experienced people at the gym were doing gave me some great ideas of what to incorporate into my workouts.

I also did have a personal trainer for 6 months and I highly recommend this, especially when you are new to working out. The biggest value is from having someone experienced give you tips and tricks on how to improve your form and workout safely. Especially as you get stronger and lift heavier weights. It's easy to lift something slightly wrong and really hurt yourself.

Overall, I always enjoyed my time at the gym and it gave me the knowledge to built a great home gym.

Ill never understand the trailer for a trailer thing. Like I can just wait for a full trailer. I don't need a preview for a preview of a film.

Here is my question, why would they want to do that? Like I get that they want to maximize productivity, but if you keep pushing them, then eventually people quit. Don't they still need workers?

I loved my Google Home when I got it in 2017, but when I got into home automation, I realized it is dumb to have to tell a device to do things. Motion sensors basically replace the main thing Google Home does and a Bluetooth speaker is cheap to buy.

I never trusted that they weren't listening to me all the time with the speakers and I never looked back after I donated them away.

I thought that was a major plot point. He is a jerk because he failed so early in his life, but then Leslie shows him how to let go of the past and live in the present which allows him to open his heart to her.

I thought it was a great story arc for his character.

Lol, no. I don't drink at all anymore considering how bad it is for your health, but having a drink before returning to work seems like an insanely bad idea.
