It doesn’t make sense to continue wanting something if you’re not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don’t want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process, is to guarantee disappointment.

Heavy screen use might create a vicious cycle for young kids. New data: the more time 3.5-year-olds spent on tablets, the more angry outbursts they had at age 4.5... and the more they used tablets at 5.5. Digital soothing is not a substitute for teaching emotion regulation.

For anyone who - like me - missed the memo, Twitter now defaults to "for you," which fills your timeline with junk. If you want to see the people you actually follow, you have to switch to the "following" tab every single time you log on.
