I used to ride the bus with a lady who grew up in a coal town. We once debated over coal. She said it was so green because there were so many regulations and that wind and solar were horrible for the environment because they were killing birds. So yeah, people are stupid.

Fuck this SCOTUS. No one is above the law. They need to answer for their crimes and be held accountable. No one should be guaranteed a job for life either.

And all we needed was a "good guy"with a gun to stop him from killing her. /s

Do you have any brand and model recommendations?

I heard a piece on him by NPR that said the same thing. Apparently his plan is to hit the federal government by 75% and something else, I can't remember. His ideas are basically bat shit and he knows nothing about politics, foreign policy, or running a government. But his confidence and ability to hand wave and deflect are out of this world apparently. Scary shit for sure.

• If you're driving with someone, a good neck pillow for the passenger so they can rest when you trade off.

• Back pillows for everyone.

• Be sure to text someone everytime you make a stop for gas and let them know where you are, where you're headed next and approximately when you'll get there - that way if you don't text they'll know to call and have an approximate location to look for you.

• building off the last item, add air tags in your car and belongings that you can track and also share the account info with trusted family/ friends to help locate you in the event something goes wrong

• Bring little orange cones in case you break down or have to fix a flat. Safety first - vest doesn't hurt either.

• Download music or audio books as you won't get reception in many areas.

• good pair of sunglasses and a backup pair

• extra prescription meds - split between two bags in case you lose one

• cut proof and RFID blocking bag of some sort put your wallet, phone, keys in when you stop - fanny packs are great but not for everyone. Find one that works for you whether it be a backpack or something else. Travelon is a great brand.

• stop for gas each time you get to half a tank. I know it sounds like overkill but you never know if you'll be diverted for a road closure through the heartland with no services for 100+ miles. It never hurts to have a full tank, give yourself a stretch, bio break and caffeine refill.

I've done road trips with a partner and solo - you'll have s blast. Make sure you're safe first and foremost. Do tons of research before you go so you hit all the spots you're interested in and have backup plans in case places are closed. Take some pictures but also just enjoy your journey.

Have a great trip!

Both can be true but just sticks is always an answer. Maybe not the only one, but always a correct answer.

Because he's a twat

I think they have some meditation videos - maybe try meditation out? They also have exercise stuff I think yoga perhaps? Movement is good for depression. Good luck to you OP. If your insurance covers it, look into therapy as well.
