Europe News: The proliferation of affordable and accessible drones has introduced significant challenges for law enforcement, as unauthorize

Not Valid. Cowardly, even

Burnout recovery tips, anyone? The wider internet is unhelpful in the way of all Advice From Medical Professionals which refuses to get more specific than "many people find improving their situation helps" or whatever

If it helps, some of it may be a result of pushing through the ADHD "novelty wore off" issue
