Shark Tank product (now sold on Amazon) resolve this.

It’s basically an expandable memory foam insert.

I'm offended:

yes, it sounds very odd in English. Actually it sounds more like Deekshith

I worked with a guy named Rakshit, and I asked him once how to say it, and he looked right at me and slowly said "rack shit". He smiled, so I think he kind of enjoyed surprising people with his name.

Patrick, Rakshit had a brother named Kaushik

Not so much a funny thing as a happy thing.

Eric Holder says

Russia is less likely to invade the United States than the United States to to invade Russia.

If the US just stopped fucking with Russia all this bullshit would go away but NO, you have to be an NPC and egg it on.

United States to to invade Russia

Baseless claim. Not a single modern US politician has ever expressed even a hint of a desire to do it. And we basically have not a single reason for it - there is nothing in Russia we need or want.

PS. But the idea is 100% in line with Russian propaganda claims, so rickwicks' consistency of never deviating from FSB party line is confirmed yet again, LOL.

The word is an adjectival form of the Sanskrit word diksha, meaning provider of knowledge.

So, it would be factually correct to say one's teacher is a dikshit.

You fucking Jooish Nazis will pay for that!

I have been enjoying leaving my phone in airplane mode in a drawer most of the time.

It somehow feels like I'm getting away with something by not carrying it constantly.

I think it’s important.

I can go full days while checking my phone constantly throughout the day… every ring, beep, etc, morning to night. Due to my job, this is my modus operandi on weekdays.

I try to put the phone away as much as possible on weekends.

When I’ve put my phone away for the entire day, I feel like I’m navigating a new planet or something. Im at ease. I’m totally present with my family, neighbors, etc. I slow down and see beauty in the world.

The combination of phones and social media could be one of the worst things that’s ever happened to our society.

One more detail, I have a business cell and a personal cell. Having to carry both, deciding which to take out to dinner, can be quite a pain. I do it primarily for privacy… when you get a business phone you agree that they own all the content. Wasn’t gonna play that game.

I like these ideas!

On the rain-catching contraption: in California you'll fill these barrels once during the winter (when you don't need to water anything anyway) and then use them to water your garden maybe twice. Having this (let's be honest) ugly and bulky thing in the yard for just two watering is not very appealing.


PS. I'm going by my experience of hauling barrels of recycled water during the last drought when water restrictions were imposed. With two of these blue barrels it was barely enough to water one big lawn and two strips of grass (about 3000 sq ft in total).

PPS. I bought them in the Marijuana grower supply store and paid with a CC, so I'm probably on some list somewhere, lol.

If you are interested in a good backyard fire pit skip the contraption made from wheels and get yourself a Solo Stove. Amazingly efficiently burning: almost no smoke and all is left is small amount of powdery ash. And it's made from SS, so it won't rust to nothing in one year like these wheels would.
