I may also suggest keeping a notebook and writing it down to remind yourself what your priorities are.

I forgot where I saw this, but making a daily/weekly list of every little thing you are grateful of can also help you get out of that loop of feeling bad.

I don't think I qualify at giving serious life advices, but I want you to know one thing, you haven't failed your son. You are doing your best, and your son knows it. The fact that you are doing everything you can to raise your son, and your son comforting you when you feel down, says to me that you love him and he loves you back. That's not failure at all. The only time you would truly fail yourself and your son, is when you stop trying.

Best wishes to you both!

"Safely" Safe from what exactly?

Yeah, that's also an additional effort lmao. That's why I was quite firm on not going full frame when choosing a camera. Weight is king after all. The Olympus OM5 and even the EP7 were also quite tempting to me before I got the XS10 (maybe they still are). So small!

No entirely surprised. Check on the Great Translation Movement Xitter page, people are vile on there.

I'm a newbie in photography. Just got a second hand Fujifilm X-S10 and Sigma 18-50 lens a few weeks ago, making time to go out and explore new places is now the harder part haha.

Lemmino

I'm surprised no one mentioned this channel yet. Previously known for making top 10 facts of everything, but has since transitioned into long form documentary of mysteries. He takes a long time between videos, but its always an instant click whenever he uploads. Does his own research, cites them, makes the background music and all of the animations for it. Honeypot for react channels too.

Fortnine

Motorcycle related videos. Does some motorcycle reviews, but the explanation type videos they mostly do are awesome. Even if you're not a motor head, you can always learn/enjoy something from their videos. If not the knowledge and physics, then the excellent videography and story telling Ryan puts in there.

Technology Connections

The Youtube Appliance guy. I kid, but he does excellent videos delving into tech in general appliances or retro stuff. One of his best videos is about dishwasher detergents, so good he had to make 2 more follow up videos about it. Seriously, go give it a watch.

I live in Taiwan, people here wear masks for whatever reason and no one bats an eye. You can wear a mask if you are sick, have too much acne and want to hide it, or because you are a medical worker and need to protect yourself and patients like OP, etc.
It also helps that we all went through the SARS pandemic, which could be seen as the previous version of COVID. Unlike COVID, SARS transmits via respiratory droplets after symptoms like fever arise, so everyone learned to wear masks during that time, and it worked. When COVID came, we knew what to do.

I see your point. I'm absolutely not saying that the drivers and the team did not do a good job, I'm merely saying that the coin flip was lucky. I can see why the teams thought a red flag would be possible if you put it this way. It still is a guess though, and no red flag could still be possible if it weren't for Colapintos crash, under a safety car no less.

[–] falkerie71 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah? The afterwards wasn't the point though.

I don't get how you interpret the interview as him bitching about the team call? In the interview, he did acknowledge that he made a few mistakes, but aside from that he thought they did the best they could, and the red flag was the bad luck.
