Why I, As A Man In My 40s, Still Believe In Santa Claus
Now before you simply go off of the title of this article and decide that the powers that be should condemn me to a room in an insane asylum, look me up and throw away the key, here me out for a moment.

Undoing Indoctrination and Restoring Civility
It is with a heavy heart that I am writing this piece. And, as such, I will try to pen it as tactfully as I can, given the emotion behind it. I’ve been wanting to write something on this topic for a while, but this seems to be the perfect moment in time, considering the occurrence of one of the most disturbing news events in my lifetime and quite possibly the entire history of our nation.

“Tipping” Expectations Have Gotten Out Of Control
Maybe a year or so ago, I recall a company coming out with a commercial that made light of the tipping craze in basically every aspect of life. Two particular scenes included a trainer spotting a weightlifter and presenting him with a tip screen on a tablet and a clergyman pulling out a tablet for a tip during a wedding ceremony. This was clearly meant to be humorous, but with how overboard people have gone with “tipping” culture, it wasn’t actually all that far from our reality.

Free Alternatives to Photoshop
In today’s world, there are a seemingly endless number of options when it comes to photo editing tools. And with the rise of cell phone photography, the app stores for IOS and Android are littered with applications to help you edit and adjust your photos. Some are worthy of use; others, not so much. But back in the day, the OG, if you will, of photography editors was Adobe Photoshop. And to this day, it remains the gold standard.

Amazon Haul Versus Temu
There’s no doubt that a large percentage of people have been struggling financially for a few years now. Inflation was out of control, and we even lost the very concept of a “dollar store” as the world’s top such retailer Dollar Tree, bumped prices to a range of $1.25, $3 and $5. While there are signs of things getting better in the economy in general, it’s still hard out there for many folks.

My Favorite Vitamin and Supplement Brands
One thing I absolutely wouldn’t consider myself is a “brand snob.” Some people, in my opinion, are disturbingly loyal to certain car makers, fashion brands, phone makers… and I am not at all interested in being a brand groupie. That being said, there is a difference between being a “brand snob” and someone who has come to trust specific companies through research, real experience and things that actually have some level of importance rather than which celebrity or influencer hawks a product or how cool the advertising seems. And when talking about products that you actually put inside your body and intend to use for better health, it just matters more.
