“You are so useless,” John screamed at his wife Julia, who just sat there and took it as usual. Who knew why John was upset this time. He was never pleased. He wasn’t even happy out here in the middle of the ocean, even though this whole cruise had been his idea.

The difference between at-will employment and right-to-work laws
A common misconception I see, especially online, is confusion about the difference between right-to-work laws and at-will employment. People often mix the two up, but in reality, these are two very different things. I am not an employment law expert by any means, but hopefully I can help clear up these misconceptions and help people understand the difference between these two concepts!

My Review of Honkai: Star Rail
Over the past several months, I have been playing a lot of Honkai: Star Rail.

Star Rail is currently available on Windows, Android, iOS, and PlayStation 5. Personally, I play it on my iPhone.

I begin to drift off to sleep in my remote ski cabin in the woods. The snow and winter wind are blowing strongly outside. Except for the storm, it is eerily quiet outside. This is because all of the woodland critters are hiding from the harsh winter weather. As I lay in bed trying to fall asleep after a long day of skiing, my mind wanders and I begin to ponder those footprints I saw near my cabin today. They were clearly human footprints, and were likely made from a man’s boot. And a large boot at that, likely at least a size thirteen.
