Dear Eric: We have a dilemma that may seem trivial but it’s driving us crazy. We’re fortunate enough to have a vacation house on a small island. Water is kind of expensive, relatively. While we love to host extended family, one older relative horns in to do the dishes by hand although we have an excellent dishwasher. The hot water waste is incredible; it’s left running while the person talks and tells stories. And they’re slow to boot. We’ve gently tried to redirect them with. They also dismiss that the machine is more efficient. No other chores make sense due to physical limitations, and they decline just socializing. It burns to acquiesce to money cost and environmental cost to coddle a person’s self-esteem. We’re even trying to figure out a fictitious reason to build a boundary. Any ideas? — Waste Water Dear Water: There’s a classic Shel Silverstein poem, “How Not to Have to Dry the Dishes” in which the instruction for avoiding the chore is simple: Do such a bad job, they won’t let you do it anymore. Ironically, you’re facing the opposite: This person is doing a bad job and won’t stop. This may not be a self-esteem issue or stubbornness. This could be a person genuinely thinking they’re helping, all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding. Try not to pin too much on age, also. Let the actions speak for themselves, not a generation. Gentle suggestion didn’t work, so you’ll need to be firmer about your boundary. A sign on the sink reading “No dishwashing, please. It costs too much,” might be clear enough. Or even a direct conversation stating that you appreciate your relative’s generosity, and you don’t want them to feel unwelcome, but you are not allowing anyone to hand wash dishes in the home anymore and you’ll feel disrespected if these wishes aren’t honored. Dear Eric: I have a friend who is an angry and impatient driver. On a recent trip, he was the driver, and it was a very stressful experience for his passengers. He cursed at other drivers, slammed on the brakes and yelled loudly in the car. He is also the type of person who is impatient with wait staff, grabs the change out of a cashier’s hand, complains about parking, gets huffy about too many people in a store and gets very angry when he is asked to calm down. Normally, other members of our party try to ignore it or just say “That’s who he is,” but after this last trip I’m wondering if you can give some suggestions on what we can say and how we can behave when we are uncomfortable with his behavior. — Calm Friend Dear Calm: Respectfully, I’m not sure why you’re still friends with this person. This isn’t a dig at you. Rather, this person’s behavior is blatantly antisocial and concerning to boot. It’s hard to see an upside to the friendship. This could be the result of a psychological or emotional issue. Try speaking to him about it at a calm moment. Acknowledge his feelings while also letting him know how his behavior is impacting those around him. “When [x] happened, I felt scared/stressed/uncomfortable. It’s concerning to me, and I feel it’s negatively affecting our friendship. When we’re together, I want to feel [x] instead.” You can also use this opportunity to set a non-negotiable limit to what you’ll be a party to. If you don’t feel safe riding in a car with your friend, say that. And follow that statement with action. Don’t get in the car. Send questions to R. Eric Thomas at eric@askingeric.com .

The Washington Commanders (7-5) experienced what is easily the toughest loss of the season and also one of the scariest moments at the end of the game when veteran running back Austin Ekeler suffered a hard hit that left him motionless on the ground. Ekeler returned a kickoff and was trying to get the offense in good field position for a final Hail Mary attempt when he was decked by Dallas Cowboys players Nick Vigil and Dwight Clark. He immediately fell to the turf and didn't move. Several teammates instantly waved to the sideline for trainers to come out and check on him. Fortunately, he eventually walked off the field. Very scary scene here to close the Commanders-Cowboys game. Austin Ekeler down on the field. pic.twitter.com/VPMo32shBQ Commanders head coach Dan Quinn updated Ekeler's status after the game. He suffered a concussion, which is the second one he's suffered this year. "I just had a chance to visit with him now. He'll do more tests, tonight, but it was a concussion." As a result, the team decided to send him to the hospital as a precaution. Ekeler finished the game with 22-yards on nine carries and two-yards on two receptions. It's more unfortunate injury news regarding the running back room, as the team also lost top running back Brian Robinson Jr. to a sprained ankle earlier in the game. Out of an abundance of caution Austin Ekeler is headed to the hospital for further testing, per Commanders spokesperson This article first appeared on A to Z Sports and was syndicated with permission.$1000 Invested In CrowdStrike Holdings 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today
NW power council: Region to run out of electricity as AI demands grow
Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy invited Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) on Fox & Friends Weekend , turning a Sunday interview into a commiseration riddled with transphobia. Campos-Duffy, whose husband was just nominated to be President-elect Donald Trump’s transportation secretary, asked Mace to lay out her recent quest to ban trans women from using women’s bathrooms on federal property, prompting Mace to repeat her oft-used lines that she’s trying to defeat “the radical left” and claiming that “men shouldn’t be allowed in women’s restrooms.” But it was at the tail-end of the interview where Campos-Duffy joined in the transphobia, bringing up Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-DE) only to misgender her. She then referenced Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s idea that Congress introduce women’s bathrooms for each political party, saying Democrats “can just open the doors to the trans—those." ADVERTISEMENT Campos-Duffy then attacked Biden administration official Rachel Levine, claiming Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s statement that Republicans want to suspect someone’s gender identity through Mace’s bill didn’t hold water. “I’ve seen Rachel Levine, I know that’s not a woman, so I don’t understand this idea,” Campos-Duffy said. “But Nancy Mace, you’ve taken a lot of abuse for standing up for the rights of women, especially in their private spaces, and we appreciate that.” Campos-Duffy’s anti-trans advocacy on Sunday is in line with a pattern of conspiracy theories and anti-LGBTQ remarks. She previously claimed libraries were attempting to “sexualize our children” by labeling LGBTQ books, and she suggested that the Catholic Church could try to introduce “a lesbian Virgin Mary” after Pope Francis approved blessings for same-sex couples. Mace, for her part, previously touted her support for “transgender equality” in 2021, making her reversal this month one of her many , many policy flip-flops.
