  • For the price point and compatibility, it’s hard to beat them—especially if you’re okay with buying secondhand. I’ve pushed most of my One+ tools to their limits (not to mention a fair share of the even worse built Hart tools) and am always surprised how much they can do.

    And before someone comments that they’re not as powerful as other TTI brands or DeWalts—yeah. I know. Most people also aren’t going to need the power that comes with those, either.

    That being said, the vacuums are Ryobi’s weak spot. A lot of Ryobi users recommend buying other name-brand cordless vacs, and sticking an adapter on them. Their 40v lawnmowers and snowblowers used to also have a variety of issues, but it seems like the last few models have fixed those.


  • I’m going to piggy back on this, because sleep is incredibly important for me.

    But more than that — routine is more important, and you mentioning habits is the way to get there. Want to help yourself sleep better before bed? Maybe walking every day between dinner and rest is what’ll help. I can’t say what works for others, but that’s what works for me, with anxiety/depression. The consistency is key.

    Another option for OP is to set goals. They don’t have to be major; maybe it’s signing up for an event (I’ll use a 5k as an example) that’s months away and then training for it. Have reasons to look forward, and not dwell on the present/past.







  • Tiger R-Zone games, and the consoles. It’s a nice collection, because the library is pretty small.

    As far as I know, I’ve got one of the most-complete, if not the most-complete collections out there, and one day I’d like to donate it to an archive or museum for caretaking. At this point, the only confirmed game I’m missing is the incredibly rare soccer game (“Football”, as it was sold—and rightfully so).

    The system brought me a lot of joy as a kid, despite its simplicity, and I think the difficulty to collect it makes it easy to be forgotten to history.
