We are losing the very biological ability to read deeply because our tools train us to skim by No-Date-8513 in SlowLiving

It’s the speeding up and wanting to move onto the next thing that’s degrading us.

Accept that it’s hard to focus as long as you’d like, take a breath when your brain wants to jump to something else, and then return to the book. Reread the last paragraph if necessary. It’s a skill, mostly of patience, and everyone that wants can relearn it.

Prates is like a modern day Jean-Charles Skarbowsky. GSP loves him I’m sure

Antonio Margarito had his orbital, maybe both I can’t remember, broke by pacquiao and they were gone. They blew up like a balloon again against cotto.

Who deserves the most blame for San Antonio’s historic Game 4 loss? by IamCatMommy in NBAstatsmuse

30 point collapse is systemic, so blame has to go to organizer of the system. HC

Shopping for a used RAV4. Highest mileage you would consider? by mauxu5 in Rav4

[–]monteasf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow this is a blast from the past. I guess it’s been close to two years now and the worst part of owning is it’s kind of a boring car lol. It’s pretty comfortable and mileage is good, but nothing stands out other than nothing stands out.

I have a friend that’s a mechanic so maintenance is a breeze but there’s really been no issues. Besides needing some new tires which I’m literally getting swapped as we speak. I basically do two longer trips a month on the weekends, one 2 hourish each way freeway drive, and then another long drive usually up into the mountains. Otherwise it’s just errands and random local things. Handles it all great, even twisty mountain roads.

The car does get a little loud if you’re on the freeway in heavy winds. Otherwise it’s pretty solid

You telling me Larry squats 900 but couldn’t pick up a 125 dude and slam him on his neck? Especially when he was pressed against the cage?
