  • Oh at the first two words of point 8., I thought there is finally something not like what every adult would tell youngsters again and again, but no. Water. You said water. What a missed opportunity!

    But in all seriousness, very good tips, all of them. I’m implementing all of them (though I’m struggling with 4 and 6), I would add just one and a half:

    • No phones in bedroom. This is the absolute prerequisite for number 3 (sleep schedule) and can be an enabler for reading books.
    • You may or may not get enough excercise from yoga and getting outside. If needed, add more.



  • I was afraid noone is going to mention this!

    But note that it is Chris Cunningham, who is a twisted brain behind these.

    Another classic: Come to Daddy

    The video opens with an old woman (played by Coral Lorne) walking a dog in a grimy, industrial setting. The dog urinates on an abandoned television lying on the pavement, causing it to sputter unexpectedly into life, and a distorted and warping headshot of Richard D. James chants the lyrics. This unleashes a spirit, accompanied by a gang of small children, all of whom bear James’ grinning face and who appear to inhabit the abandoned buildings
