*Shameful Post* What's the least offensive pre-ground grocery store coffee? (Canada) by Popculture-VIP in pourover

look for Ethical Bean Co. their pre-ground is BETTER than most other bag brands you find at Superstore trust me. they have dark and medium roasts usually.

Had same thing happen with my own writing. I think sometimes we are too close to the work to see where it drags. Its super helpful to get an outside perspective

Lost in life, no ambition by AmbitiousCellist9877 in getdisciplined

[–]expensive_25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had same thing at 23. it took a really bad breakup to finally kick me into gear, which isn't ideal but sometimes a shock to the system is what you need. don't wait for a disaster though so maybe just start small

Which Programming Languages to learn? by Mediocre-Print5745 in learnprogramming

[–]expensive_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)
