This is precisely the answer I was looking for, though I didn't know it when I asked. Thank you!

If not, then what about rarely instead of never?

...or Reddit. Not really why I came here.

Not for everyone. Antiperspirants irritate my skin. There are deodorants that work well for me, like Dove.

This guy Jesse on Alone Season 5 was running out of food and had read about native tribes creating bread from tree bark, so he stripped some off a pine tree and ate it. It seemed edible but hard to pass. The video shows the aftermath, basically he had to tap out and be rescued due to severe abdominal pain. However, apparently it is a thing, I'm not sure how you could do it in a way your stomach can handle though, and most likely it has to be specific species of trees.

Anyone who appreciates this one and hasn't read the entirety of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations (compiled into book form) really should. Many gems of stoic wisdom therein.

I love this. As a software engineer, I see people run into this issue all the time. I've often heard it as, "Done is better than perfect."

Always thought this guy was a boss!

For most circumstance, I want to be mid-bell. In the workplace it means I can both learn from and teach others. Oftentimes, I'd prefer expertise in some areas (smartest in room) but lack of knowledge in other areas that I'm interested in but know there are others there who are experts and are willing to help me grow. In social situations I think it's similar, though there I prefer to interact with people who are open, friendly and kind regardless of their intelligence.

This is some sort of childish tech-classist B.S. Like you wouldn't talk to a friend because of the shoes they wore or the car they drove. Who cares about people like that?

I'd signed up for an account here once the ridiculousness started, but didn't start frequenting until just now (first post) because Boost stopped working completely. Ah well, definitely not installing the official app. I was over there for 12 years or so too. I have a feeling lurkers won't really care and keep using the site just like there are people who still use Facebook and what-not, but it certainly won't ever be cool again.
