In this case Finland actually takes care of their people and homelessness isn't a problem there. They're just really polite introverts who I might guess prefer sitting alone as opposed to on a bench close to others.
Source - my introverted niece met a Fin, fell in love, moved to Finland and is in absolute heaven. Her husband has visited the States a few times and is always overwhelmed with the casual social interactions with strangers in public.
Local to me, but https://www.modest.coffee/ offers subscriptions as well.
I haven't subscribed because different times of year I order from Modest or pick up from another local roaster, but the beans I get were typically roasted a day or so before shipping.
That's just disrespectful lol.
No worries 🙂. I am in a much better place these days, but as a 51yo woman my hormones have tanked and sleep is now a foreign concept. I exercise regularly, eat a reasonable diet, wind down and go to bed then get up at the same time 7 days a week, but that wasn't enough. Melatonin alone leaves me feeling groggy, but I've found micro dosing THC prior to bed to be helpful. 2.5 mg an hour before bed then another 2.5 when I lay down buys me about 6 hrs of uninterrupted sleep before I fade in and out. It's a huge improvement from waking every 90 minutes and struggling to fall back asleep.
Boy I wish someone would have shared this with me when I was working 2 jobs, struggling to afford rent, raising teenagers, and getting home at 11pm when I had to get up at 6:30am. If I would have just worked a little harder...
I appreciate that you're trying to be helpful, but it feels like telling a depressed person to just eat right and exercise and they'll get over it.
I'm guessing they basically made a second drive through line. They just need someone outside to walk the food out to the second line.
Almost definitely. They're putting it on 6 days a week, and the familiarity of the music and voices would lend itself to be relaxing.
My only question is are they doing this for themselves, or is it a child that they're lulling to sleep?

Emulsifiers? Egg yolks are emulsifiers, but I guess the chicken is on the hook for the processing.
I see someone down voted you for some reason. In case it's because of the misconception that audiobooks aren't as good as reading, several years back there was some research which showed that as far as the brain is concerned, there's essentially no difference.
"Looking at the brain scans and data analysis, the researchers saw that the stories stimulated the same cognitive and emotional areas, regardless of their medium. It’s adding to our understanding of how our brains give semantic meaning to the squiggly letters and bursts of sound that make up our communication."

Someone close to me was raped the first 5 years of his life by a relative, and has been in therapy (very successfully) ever since. When someone that young experiences ongoing trauma like that, it fucks all the developmental areas in life including the reward/feel good parts of the brain. There are things that the brain becomes wired for that can't be undone, but with effective treatment can be managed.
Under the best circumstances recovery is incredibly hard, without therapy and proper support it's not surprising someone could go off the rails like this. Not saying that this predator was abused because I don't know, but it's statistically likely.
