- Comment on How come glasses for hyperopia/farsightedness (reading glasses) are there on the shelves, but glasses for myopia require a prescription? 2 weeks ago:
I suspect that you are correct about reimbursement.
However, when a person visits an optician or an optometrist, at the end of the visit they receive a set of specifications for correcting their eyesight back to as close to “normal” vision as possible. The catch for those specs being called a prescription is that a person cannot walk in and purchase any corrective lenses that they choose. Instead, they are limited to options that fit their specific corrections only.

I think that there might be an argument that driving stress would correlate with the necessity of driving. That is, places where it is more stressful to drive have a higher frequency of available public transportation, like in a city, while places that are more relaxing to drive in tend to require having a vehicle for transportation, like rural areas.
Also, there is definitely an element of PTSD that can come with being in a car accident. It can make you jumpy when riding in cars with others or driving. I have heard that many race car drivers end up quitting the sport after a bad accident. No idea how true that is but if you start driving again the jumpiness will eventually turn into a higher level of alertness which can be a good thing when operating a motor vehicle.

Not too much. Just doing the daily.
This is an honest and correct answer if that is your situation. Nothing wrong with that.
- Comment on Gen Z reveals the surprising reasons they are career catfishing—ghosting a new boss after endless interview rounds: Nearly a quarter say it was a dare 6 months ago:
Endless interview rounds? Who’s fault is it that there were endless interviews? It certainly isn’t the person applying for the job. Maybe don’t be a fuckhead and make up your mind about someone without subjecting their livelihood to multiple interviews to figure out if you want them or not. God, these employers need to fuck off.
