so, erm, i've been feeding birds in my garden for nearly three years & have never seen a rat until this week. i have nothing against rats & i want them to live healthy & happy lives (preferably away from houses), but i know that there's a problem if they're turning up during the day, boldly eating seeds. i'm worried about encouraging them to proliferate. looking for non-lethal advice & experience. thanks!
I awoke this morning and turned on my TV, which was on ESPN. A feature on Coach Lawson and this speech was already playing, and I watched the rest of it. I then watched the full video on YouTube, and I encourage everyone to do the same. It may not be possible to have such an important philosophy expressed in a more succinct way. Thank you to Coach Lawson and to the person who thought to record and later to share her speech with everyone. I'm always going to root for you.

HR question:
I resigned from my job on Friday. I have a 3 month notice. Today I was called by HR to say they want me to leave next Friday and in the meantime I'm not allowed to come to the office or speak to anyone.
I will be paid salary until my contractual notice period ends.
My manager is a senior director who also has HR team reporting into them. We haven't seen eye to eye, which is the reason I'm leaving.
I manage a team of 7 who now won't get a handover.

The frantic rush to get to work, the standard occupations, the so-called life phases, our ways of coping and governance. If I was young and on my own, I'd ditch it all and try a secular "back to nature" commune.
One bit of advice about friendship you see in ancient philosophy is it's important to test & pass judgement on friends as the friendship develops. Plutarch discusses it in On Having Many Friends, and here's a video about that
