Right to work states (alphabetical):
Lowest 10 state GDP per capita (2023):
51: Mississippi
50: West Virginia
49: Arkansas
48: Alabama
47: South Carolina
46: New Mexico
45: Idaho
44: Montana
43: Kentucky
42: Oklahoma
New Mexico and Montana are apparently not right to work but rank low in GDP per capita. The highest GDP per capita right to work state is North Dakota, ranked 6th in GDP per capita after California (5th) and before Connecticut (7th). Nebraska is the only other right to work state in the top 10 GDP per capita coming in at number 10.
Apologies for formatting, etc. I did this on mobile from my bed.
Running.
Was supposed to be the cheapest way to get exercise. You can do it right from your front door, no gym subscriptions, no specialized equipment (some people will tell you you don't even need shoes), and it's far and away the best time-value exercise I've ever found. You can get away with like 20 minutes 3-4 times a week and be doing great.
Well, turns out I love running and I love distance running so I'm now putting up enough miles to need new shoes 2-3 times a year, a nice Garmin smart watch and heart rate monitor to track my progress, sign-ups for several long-distance races each year, shorts, socks, you get the picture.
Could I do it cheaper? Yeah. But at the end of the day it's a hobby and I like it
There are still humans who do this to this day, the most notable being the tarahumara tribes of South America. They will literally run down the local deer barefoot for their food.
Humans are insanely adapted to be endurance runners compared with the rest of the animal kingdom which, if you think about it, kind of makes sense. It takes a LOT less energy for a cheetah to sprint down an antelope in 3 minutes than to chase it for 3 hours, so they adapted to be great sprinters. Likewise, the antelope only has to outrun the cheetah for 3 minutes so they, too, became great sprinters. For small mammals it makes more sense to be able to run very fast and hide from predators than to run long distances in potentially dangerous territory.
Since there was no evolutionary incentive for animals to run marathons they never developed the biology to do so, and we see this not just in mammals, but in reptiles, too. Horses are an exception to this though as they, too, are well adapted to distance running although iirc their adaptations are more in the way of making it mechanically easy (long, strong legs, huge hearts, etc.) to run long distances rather than the cooling systems humans developed.
Humans just kind of lucked out or perhaps ended up filling an evolutionary niche due to our need to cover long ranges with scarce food sources in our early evolutionary development.
Google "Best vacuum cleaner"
Top 6 hits: "We evaluated the 5 brands that paid us the most and found that they all suck up your dirt. We can't really speak ill of any of them because this is an ad and we signed a contract. Please use our embedded links so we can have more money."
I don't know where else to go.
The best thing about reddit for me was an endless stream of information and news propped up by user discussion. I rarely just scrolled endlessly through posts; I loved delving into comments on posts which didn't even interest me at face value to see what I could learn from niche communities.
It was, hands down, the best, most information dense landscape I've ever seen and frankly I feel a little lost without it. I hope that some day, some where I can find something similar.
Not just porn! Since reddit only has one such tag you can apply to posts, many subreddits were using the NSFW tag for a wider variety of reasons such as spoilers, content which may contain unsettling material (aka "triggers"), and more!
I saw a post about a community created here called "pixel passport" which I thought was a hell of a lot better that "earth porn."
Funny how you seem to believe that "checking stock prices" is a good use of a whole monitor but don't seem to see how literally any other task could benefit from having reference material up on a second monitor.
But who taught her to load the dish washer?
