Psychedelics aren't to be taken lightly and should never be first line treatment in my opinion. They can pull down your defense mechanisms, some of which can be very strong, and if you're not ready for it then it can definitely le

Things are pretty stable because Google Voice has barely changed in the past decade, but when things do go wrong there's no one around to look into it. There was a time many years ago when Google Voice would intermittently fail to ring

If they called it something along the lines of an off hours discount that's what the optics would be. Clearly the fact that people are talking about this in a generally negative way shows that they aren't seeing it as getting a ba

Their only reference point is other tech workers. Maybe they should get out of their social bubble and make some blue collar friends to figure this out.
