Imagine working your entire life and then dieing to covid during retirement. A tiny fraction of your life was free.

I didn’t even know this was possible. Looks like my current oven may be able to do it - it has a ticking timer knob - but pretty sure all previous ones didn’t have this feature.

Other than the use case you have mentioned I can’t see any reason to use it. It would be annoying to have the oven turn off before the food is cooked to perfection, which it rarely is at a prescribed time

Thinking I’ll just take whatever sleep I can get then force myself out of bed in the morning, and try not to lose the plot with the irritating people I have to deal with at college.

Does melatonin work well for you?

In this question I was more specifically referring to the psychological warfare between citizens, in the quest for dominance and control in the social hierarchy present in our societies

Just imagine how bad it is for the employees

The caption was absolutely essential. I never would have understood this meta-level humour without it

She probably thinks, in all honesty, that the average person is too stupid to understand the innuendo, and that only the clever ones will get it, like it’s some exclusive inside joke.
