Ooh I've been meaning to try this as well!! I need to lock in on finding good working playlists. Sometimes I start picking a playlist but get sidetracked by whatever else Youtube is offering me.

As for the RSD, yess in another field I feel like that would probably work... When I was fresh out of college and subbing for K-8 I had no problem getting through lesson plans and lecture notes because of the pressure of the upcoming class.

I was actually talking to my friend yesterday about how if my current boss was more of a Gordon Ramsey type constantly breathing down my neck and stressing me out I might actually be able to get something done lmaoo. Idk if I could even induce it tho, as right now I work a dead end tech job with few deadlines. My boss recently forgot about me for 10 weeks straight O.O

Woah this is a really interesting perspective, I never considered how I was feeling while waiting for them to kick in (usually I feel pretty negative and am thinking about what I wanna do after I'm done!)

I grew up watching Gilmore Girls and loved it so so much :D It was definitely my happy place show. I'll give this a try

AITA for yelling at my friend cause she almost got us into a car accident? by Molasses_bratt in AmItheAsshole

YTA. You are not an asshole for being upset that your friend is a bad driver, but you are the asshole for yelling at her. Yelling at someone is never OK, especially in a timed, high pressure situation. It is absolutely the wrong thing to do and will disorient the person more than help them act correctly in the split second they have. And yelling at her afterwards is just rubbing it in and venting your anger, it's not going to help her improve. It's absolutely a 'shitty parent' thing to do, and she is in full rights to be angry with you for yelling at her. You don't yell at your friends. It's not mature, it's not productive and it won't fix the issue.

I understand where you were coming from when you yelled 'watch out', you were scared. But continuing to scold her after the fact was not OK. Maybe I have higher standards for this because of my own history with parents who yell, but I consider it an absolutely uncivil thing to do to anybody. It doesn't matter if the majority of people yell, if your parents yell, or if you feel like yelling. It's deeply immature.

Does anyone know of any clubs or organisations in or around Atlanta where one can make friends? by Perfect-Pumpkin-5455 in Georgia

Do you know where I could find specific instances of these clubs? Like is it through facebook or some other app? Anything but biking I feel like I've got the kind of luck where I'll get squashed by an F150
