Discipline is a Choice

It’s easy to say yes to a free doughnut, to a bite of a brownie, to just scroll a little bit more before you get started on that project, to just do a little more research by watching one more RUclips video.

Why you should play with knives

What do knives, a phone and doughnuts have in common? Yes, exactly. They are all featured in this video. But, this short movie is also about humankind’s latest addiction-media consumption-and how sometimes we are better off bored than mindlessly scrolling through that thing we most like to scroll through.

What to do if they don't text back
Просмотров 2972 года назад
Obsessing over someone who doesn’t text you back is characterized by several distinct stages. The first stage is a happy one, mostly filled with relationship fantasizing. As time goes on you enter the next stage where you create reasonable stories as to why they aren’t texting you back. These stories slowly take an unfavorable turn as you begin questioning the quality of your original text… Fea...

      @@TheMrWills I would definitely recommend checking out the Kreg Adaptive Cutting System Master Kit (www.kregtool.com/shop/cutting/track-saw-cutting/adaptive-cutting-system-master-kit/ACS3100.html). This is what I have used for all my projects. I think it's a good entryway into building stuff because it's safer than a tablesaw, and you can still do a lot more with it than just getting a circular saw or just a track saw. Add a router into the mix, and then you can be even more versatile with what you can build. But take this with a grain a salt, as I still consider myself a beginner.

    I don´t get it. Is he trolling or something ? The whole thing can only hold one phone ? It takes so much room on your desk. Also, it looks like it's really prone to tipping sideways.

    • @wayofthelatebloomer
      @wayofthelatebloomer 7 месяцев назад

      One of my goals with making this was for it to also be decorative, hence it's a little larger. A lot of the phone stands I saw online are really small and don't necessarily serve a "decorative" purpose. I've found that it isn't prone to tipping sideways, but with a heavier phone and with the handle pushed out, it is prone to tip forward. Thanks for watching.
