that's fair

I bought some cheap anime ones on ebay several years ago so they're really thin, this might be why I can wear mine all night

for the first trouble on mitigating negative thought spirals, I like to meditate and practice with cognitive behavioural therapy in addition to rewatching Stoic Quotes

for me I've conditioned myself to fall asleep after following my routine:

  1. use my phone for the last time before telling myself I'm done and I want to sleep.
  2. floss + brush teeth
  3. shower
  4. makeup
  5. put on eyemask
  6. bed

after that I regularly fall asleep in about 10-15ish mins(can't check time; just going by feel at this point) and even though I sleep for 6-8hrs I still feel pretty good

I wish I saw this before buying sunscreen a couple days ago

I bought and used Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 and it felt great but wasn't worth buying in the first place because the SPF is so low. I bought it as I thought it was a good value but after being burnt I would have preferred to have spent more to get sunscreen that actually protected me

I'm not too well informed when saying this but I hope Canada also comes through and signs a joint agreement with the US in protecting the Great Lakes as it would be a win-win for both Canadians and Americans alike!

Similar to high turnover rate at major corporations is the justified fear that the current residents will be abandoned by their own government in an attempt to drive economic incentives

Unless the system is built correctly, you could accidentally drive people away because you didn't build with your citizens best interests in consideration

For example Japan and South Korean (my heritage) has this exact problem still at large as they encourage people to have children yet systems like high working hours in combination with low wages means that people just can't afford to have children
