    Agreed, that’s why I haven’t tried it yet. When I used to run 70-80 mile weeks I’d go through shoes regularly enough that this might’ve made sense. Now that I’m significantly less than that I can hang on to shoes for a bit longer






  • Eh, at least in my experience, interest in most normal mortgages ends up less than the standard deduction so it can’t be claimed. It was a change Trump made to the tax code I think. I don’t understand enough about it to know if it affects me negatively or not. I know it’s better for me to claim the standard deduction instead of itemizing my deductions. This means I can’t claim interest paid (which is bad), but the standard deduction is higher than it was before, so I think I’m still claiming more money as untaxable (which is good, I think?).

    Maybe someone with more knowledge than me can chip in.








  • Man, that doesn’t resonate with me at all. I don’t think there is any point to living other than just enjoying your time here. Sure, work when necessary to be able to afford the necessities, develop some skills to be able to afford a few luxuries, but honestly just do things that make you happy. Self-improvement as a reason to live seems awful. If you’re unable to improve, are you a failure? If you’re already happy as you are, should you just end it?


  • Dreamingspanish.com has been great at helping my vocabulary. Just watching videos 30-60 minutes a day, at my level of comprehension really took the stress out of memorization and has allowed my brain to pick up on common phrases and different ways to talk around things I don’t know wxact words for. There are a ton of free videos at super beginner, beginner, and intermediate levels. I watched a 20 part complete history of Spain at the intermediate level and then immediately subscribed to his channel because I could tell pretty quickly how good it was for me. I’d definitely recommend giving it a shot if you want to boost listening skills and expanding vocab.
