3D Orbit Ball Rolls Circles Around Our Spare Time

We have a love/hate relationship with Candystand, whom we’ve reviewed so often we ought to be on their payroll.

We think they know it.

To fully leverage our weakness for time-wasting single-person games and sell us candy at the same time, they’ve come out with yet another such offering called Orbit Spherez. (Guess what candy they’re pushing.) It merits a NSFW rating. Be careful.

Our only big beef: what’s up with the laggage? We are not fans of laggage.

Behavioral scientists found that people who were overly criticized growing up often become less likeable as they get older — not because their personality deteriorates but because the exhaustion of performing acceptability for 50 years eventually exceeds the energy available, and the “difficult” person their family describes is often just someone who finally stopped auditioning for approval that was never going to be granted unconditionally

I’m 73 and my husband planned a cruise for our 50th anniversary and by the second evening I was standing on the deck looking at the ocean and crying—not because I was unhappy but because I’d expected to feel something enormous and instead I felt exactly the same as I do in my kitchen, and the realization that geography doesn’t fix the thing that’s wrong when the thing that’s wrong is internal was the most expensive lesson I’ve ever been taught in a bathrobe

Research suggests the simple act of eating a meal without your phone has become one of the most radical things a person can do for their mental health — not because the phone is harmful, but because the meal without it is the only daily occasion most people have left to exist without being reachable

The generation that was never allowed to be tired, never allowed to be lost, never allowed to need anything from anyone is now sitting in quiet houses in their late 60s and 70s wondering why a lifetime of being needed by everyone left them feeling known by no one

The real reason your aging father who never expressed emotion in sixty years of marriage openly weeps when the family dog dies isn’t sentimentality. The dog was the one relationship where he was allowed to be soft without it being questioned, and the grief isn’t just about the animal, it’s about losing the only door he ever found for the feelings he was raised to lock away

My daughter described her childhood to a friend last week and I overheard it from the next room—and the mother she described wasn’t cruel or cold, she was just less present than I remember being, less patient than I thought I was, and less fun than I tried to be—and the distance between the mother I performed and the mother she received is a gap I can hear but never close because her version is the only one that counts
