The newest term to hit America due to a tiktok trend in july of 2022, "Quiet Quitting" If you don't go above and beyond at your job, then you're a "Quiet Quitter". if you do what is required at your job, you might be a "Quiet Quitter". If you perform just enough not to be fired, you might be a "Quiet Quitter".
Is it wrong not to go above and beyond at work?
Just doing the job requirements and only working hours in trade of money?
Should you be shamed for working 9-5 monday through Friday.
If you don't answer that email on your vacation or take that call after hours, you might be a "Quiet Quitter".
Why is this bad, after all you are not being paid for the extra effort and there's no promotion waiting at the end of the month. The definition for a "Quiet Quitter" is someone who does not endure the hustle culture and go above and beyond in the workplace (summed up). It is a loose definition, meaning lots of loose interpretations, meaning more possibilities for a toxic workplace. No one wants that.
In the day and age of Pandemics and culture changes, we need to learn and discuss together how to combat more Negative Changes to ourselves and those around us. Some are easily confused, but that doesn't have to be you.
Send in your stories if you know someone who is a "Quiet Quitter" or if you think you yourself is a "Quiet Quitter" I guarantee you, it's most likely NOT your FAULT. It's not a new concept, workplace toxicity has been known FOREVER!
Todays episode discusses a eerie uber driver who went off course and refused to show the passenger the gps. In part 2 we hear about a pony in Ireland and boy refusing to take pictures of it. It's a interesting day for the Reddit feed that surpassed my defenses and stacked kindly in my inbox. Tell me what you think, send a recording or tweet me at 1adamparadox. Continue to the discussion and lets see what we can learn.

Work is great. No really it is. I am grateful for the experiences and relationships I have made through my previous job. Most employment, especially in a social related field can be very exhausting. Burnout happens very quickly and if you don't have supportive management, it's even worse. In this episode I discuss why I left my previous employment and discuss some of the details which is personal to me. Sorry this is probably more of a downer episode. I discuss more of my depression, bits of my thought process and what led me to decide to leave. Here is a short spoiler, it took 3 months for me to finally decide to submit my resignation.
My hope for this episode, although basically me ranting, is to provide some insight and confidence that it is ok to quit and move on. There is never a good time and when it's a toxic environment we only get to control when we hand in our resignation. What helped me get through this before, was learning that others had experienced a toxic workplace also. There are books and resources available and have many testimonials. It helps build the feeling that you're not crazy. Good toxic leadership are masters of "push and pull" or "gaslighting" tactics. And they appear like kind people, probably too kind.
I have started to paint again (cliche i know) and that for me is exciting as well as doing projects I enjoy. I have embraced a freelancer lifestyle at the moment. If you would like to have a logo or other design work made, please find me on fiverr or message me for details.
This is a bit of an unconventional podcast. I needed to vent and discuss some current issues. My hope is this will start some discussion, so please find me on social media or email or record your response here. Thanks again for your support and just for listening.
Thanksgiving is coming, but what's happening in the world???
Stupid Restrictions. Gov Newsom, Gov Kelly, Lightfoot, all are going fricking insane over gathering restrictions. 6 in 1 on home. Well those of you with larger families gotta boot out your least favorite. This is out of hand. How do we get through this, stand up for what we believe in and what is truth, justice and the American Way.
This podcast use to be about God and becoming atheist, with some minor politics. I hope to merge multiple elements with psychology and mental health. I believe that the truth is healing even if it sucks. Understanding why something is happening vs the feeling, "it just doesn't make sense".

Hey Freaks and Geeks, I am back. It has been a crazy year. I explain it all in this podcast and will be getting things back up and running again. This means I am back on the search for guests and resources for material. Have anything you want me to look into, or talk about, or want to share your story, get ahold of me via Facebook and Twitter.
In this podcast I mention current politics. Shady business going on with the Biden's and whether Trump is a good candidate for another 4 years, But something is definitely not right about this year. Covid is on the rise again, as so the media says, but there hasn't been mention of it since the election news.
Follow, subscribe and write in, I'd love to hear from you, Good or bad. Preferrably not just bad. lol.

Gavin Hurlimann: Cool interview. Very respectful & charitable work from both parties. Atheists take note.
Daulton Horton: I'm not trying to call this guy a liar, i think he's telling the truth, that HE thinks he was a Christian, but I'm not buying it, he was a cultural Christian with a nice personality, so was my dad until he was 60 years old before he was really born again, and he was also raised in the church, I don't believe this man was ever born again, I know he wasn't!
Brian Stevens: If he says he was a Christian, he was a Christian. End of story.

8 Questions Atheists Cannot Plausibly Answer christian-apologist.com/2019/10/12/8-questions-atheists-cannot-plausibly-answer… I have YET to see a better explanation for the minimal facts surrounding Jesus' resurrection than #JESUS RESURRECTED. #Christianity #TruthReigns

1. What explains our objective morality?
2. If an atheist’s position is that the universe is the product of chance and necessity (instead of the product of intelligence), how can he or she explain the fact that the universe is structured rationally, logically and with mathematical precision and predictability?
3. If atheists adhere to the belief that the purpose of human life is merely to procreate and survive, is it possible to determine that human life has any more value than animal life – since animals share the same basic purpose?
4. Why have so many atheists determined that the life of a fetus in a mother’s womb is less valuable than the life of his or her mother? Age discrimination? When is a human considered a human to them?
5. How can atheists explain the ordering of our DNA?
6. How can atheists explain the force that powered the Big Bang of the universe?
7. How can atheists explain our desire for heavenly joy?
8. What is the best explanation for the minimal facts surrounding Jesus’ resurrection?

“I sparked a movement while I was bored at 2 a.m,” Roberts told the L.A. Times. https://www.nj.com/entertainment/2019/09/yes-people-actually-showed-up-to-storm-area-51.html
In July 1947 a rancher by the name of Mac Brazel found strange metal strewn over his land in New Mexico. Brazel took this debris to the authorities in Roswell. The commanding officer at the time Colonel Blanchard was also intrigued and he ordered an investigation. After collecting the shrapnel and other evidence off of Brazel’s property, the first Army command at Roswell issued a press release stating that they had recovered some type of “flying disk”
Conclusion
Area 51 is one of the most widely recognized secrets in the United States. While only a select few know for sure what happens in this facility, many believe that there are supernatural events and government tests that would change the way we feel about the universe. Will Area 51 conspiracy theories last forever or will the United States government eventually come clean about everything that happens behind the barbed wired fences?

The universe cannot be younger than the objects contained inside of it. By determining the ages of the oldest stars, scientists are able to put a limit on the age.
The life cycle of a star is based on its mass. More massive stars burn faster than their lower-mass siblings. A star 10 times as massive as the sun will burn through its fuel supply in 20 million years, while a star with half the sun's mass will last more than 20 billion years. The mass also affects the brightness, or luminosity, of a star; more massive stars are brighter. [Related: The Brightest Stars: Luminosity & Magnitude] Known as Population III stars, the first stars were massive and short-lived. They contained only hydrogen and helium, but through fusion began to create the elements that would help to build the next generation of stars. Scientists have been hunting for traces of the first stars for decades.
"Those stars were the ones that formed the first heavy atoms that ultimately allowed us to be here," David Sobral, an astronomer from the University of Lisbon in Portugal, said in a statement. Sobral was part of a team that identified a bright galaxy with evidence of Population III stars.
"The detection of dust in the early universe provides new information on when the first supernovae exploded and hence the time when the first hot stars bathed the universe in light," ESO officials said in a statement. "Determining the timing of this 'cosmic dawn' is one of the holy grails of modern astronomy, and it can be indirectly probed through the study of early interstellar dust."
Early stars aren't the only way to place limits on the age of the universe. Dense collections of stars known as globular clusters have similar characteristics. The oldest known globular clusters have stars with ages that appear to be between 11 and 14 billion years old. The wide range comes from problems in pinpointing the distances to the clusters, which affects estimates of brightness and thus mass. If the cluster is farther away than scientists have measured, the stars would be brighter, thus more massive, thus younger than calculated.
