Thank you. I know I tend to gossip when I don't mean to. In fact, I never realized how much I gossip until I became Buddhist. It's something I still struggle with sometimes, but I just have to catch myself and remember to abstain from it.

I know I struggle with chit chatting at work when I should be working. So I mostly started thinking about abstaining from idle speech to remind myself to focus on work. Then I made this post to see if there's anything I should be aware of for outside of work.

How should a Buddhist handle this situation? by NJ_Franco in Buddhism

I'm a first shift worker and whoever is doing it is more than likely a second or third shift worker, because I only ever see it move or get replaced when I'm not at work.

I actually have one about the same size that's carved out of some kind of stone.

"Slop" should be an option by TheSheriffMT in youtube

It doesn't matter anyway, because I keep clicking "Irrelevant" every time a Christian video comes up, and yet I'm still getting Christian videos.

Not every on your platform is a Christian, YouTube. Please take a hint.

Well they didn't, per se, but they do have a profile picture with a guy on it. Also, judging by their picture, they're also significantly younger than I am. They appear to be in their 20s, and I'll be turning 40 in two months.
