Nokia Corp. ADR falls Thursday, underperforms marketAsk Lisi: Wild, distasteful stories on social media a reason to log off Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what’s true online, which is a good reason to take a break and/or restrict what you might come across Lisi Tesher Dec 28, 2024 7:00 AM Share by Email Share on Facebook Share on X Share on LinkedIn Print Share via Text Message Advice columnist Lisi Tesher Listen to this article 00:03:41 Dear Lisi: I know social media is garbage, often misleading, false news, made up stories, but some of it is so mind-boggling, I can’t stop thinking about it. Recently there was a “journalistic” piece, a snippet from a talk show, where a woman was bragging that for her birthday, she gave herself the present of having sex with 40 men – in one day! And that afterwards, she and her husband went out for a celebratory birthday dinner. What?!? How can that be true? And whether it is or isn’t, why is it being shown across social media sites? Why is this woman bragging about this behaviour? And what sort of husband would think this was a good gift? I’m sickened thinking about it, but it’s like a traffic accident I can’t stop ogling. What has technology done to our sense of decency? Beyond If you’re talking about the episode of ITV’s This Morning with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield that aired two years ago, I saw that and also found it shocking, disturbing and repulsive. Is it true? Who knows? And how will we ever know unless it was filmed, and I’d rather not know the answer to that. Why this woman thought that sleeping with 40 men in one day was a good idea, I could not begin to unpack. But it’s her life. I suggest taking a break from social media. When you return, do so thoughtfully. Perhaps even put restrictions on your phone like you would for your children. Dear Lisi: My girlfriend and I are both restless sleepers and are both going through a phase in our lives where we wake up hot. Her answer to this is to reach over and get intimate. At first, I thought it was hot and responded in kind. But now I find I’m just too hot and the sweatiness isn’t all that sexy. How do I tell her that middle-of-the-night sweaty sex isn’t worth waking up for? Too hot to be hot Your description of waking up hot sounds as though you two are in a perimenopausal stage, which is the transition period leading up to menopause. It can last a year, or even a decade, and it can start as early as your 30s, but for most women, it’s in the mid to late 40s. Some symptoms of perimenopause are trouble with sleep (check), night sweats (check) and changes in sexual desire (check). But knowing the reasons for these changes doesn’t change how you feel in the middle of the night. Talk to your girlfriend about that. It’s not about how much you love her or want to be intimate. It’s the combination of timing, hormonal changes and desire. Work through this phase TOGETHER. There will be more changes coming and dealing with them as a team will do wonders for your relationship. FEEDBACK Regarding the 35-year-old who lives at home (Nov. 4): Reader – “I don’t know all the circumstances of why you’re living with them at 35 — and there could well be good reasons, such as caring for them, or the economy or cultural considerations. But I’ll put this out there: A dear friend of mine lived with his mother through to the end of her life, and over time, the dynamic shifted to him taking care of her. Throughout that entire time, he still had a fully active social and personal life, including plenty of opportunities to host gatherings and partners at his home. “The big secret? He would treat his mom to a night out with a friend. Gift certificates for dinner and a movie or a show. If you want some alone time at the house, you can buy it!” Lisi Tesher is an advice columnist based in Toronto. Email questions to [email protected] . See a typo/mistake? Have a story/tip?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the way companies market their products, enabling them to target consumers in personalized and interactive ways that not long ago seemed like the realm of science fiction. Marketers use AI-powered algorithms to scour vast amounts of data that reveal individual preferences with unrivalled accuracy. This allows companies to precisely target content – ads, emails, social media posts – that feels tailor-made and helps cultivate companies' relationships with consumers. As a researcher who studies technology in marketing, I joined several colleagues in conducting new research that shows AI marketing overwhelmingly neglects its potential negative consequences.

The win also secured the fourth postseason appearance in Jim Harbaugh’s five seasons as an NFL coach, adding to the three he made during his stint with the San Francisco 49ers. Herbert finished 26 of 38 for 281 yards to become the third player in NFL history with at least 3,000 passing yards and 20 touchdown passes in each of his first five seasons.

Dallas forward P.J. Washington was suspended for one game. All of the suspensions are without pay. Nurkic was called for an offensive foul while being guarded by Daniel Gafford with 9:02 left in the third quarter before the altercation quickly escalated. Nurkic confronted Marshall before taking an open-handed swing at his head and then Marshall responded with a punch. Washington quickly shoved Nurkic to the ground before the teams were separated. The NBA said Marshall “attempted to further engage Nurkic in a hostile manner in the corridor outside the locker rooms.” Shohei Ohtani to become a father for the 1st time in 2025 LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shohei Ohtani is adding a newcomer to his family lineup.
