Oh look another #guidedog denial with @lyft and making me 15 minutes late for work. Driver drove into the driveway, saw me and Viva, and drove off and totally ignored all my calls. A blatant disregard for me as a person, not to mention the law. ��😡

Anger and aggression sometimes seem to be protective because they bring energy to bear on a particular situation, but that energy is blind. It takes a calm mind to be able to consider things from different angles and points of view.

Kobe was a legend on the court and just getting started in what would have been just as meaningful a second act. To lose Gianna is even more heartbreaking to us as parents. Michelle and I send love and prayers to Vanessa and the entire Bryant family on an unthinkable day.

If you know anyone that activated their first Amazon echo device between Dec 23, and the 28th, they can get a smart plug for $.99.
All they have to do is say, Alexa order a Amazon smart plug.
She will put it in the cart, and if they check their cart, they will see it for $.99.

the human who always brings packages. brought another package today. i put my nose against the window to say hi. and they poked it from the other side of the glass. before smiling. and continuing on their way

Before arguing with friends or family around the Thanksgiving table, take a look at the science behind arguing better. And it'll never hurt to try this: "Listen to people, get them to think about their own experience, and highlight your common humanity." https://t.co/AZC9kpqoqx

Millions of tech-savvy intellectuals are using Blinkist to stay ahead of their peers, and on top of their fields.

Taking care of our planet, is a matter of looking after our own home. We can no longer exploit the earth’s resources—the trees, water, air and minerals—with no care for the coming generations. I support young people’s protests at governments’ inaction over the climate crisis.
