When I first found out I had HIV, I had to find somebody who was living with it, who could help me understand my journey and what I was going to have to deal with day-to-day.

For restaurants that have a minimum gratuity charge on large groups, the IRS will now count those tips as regular wages rather than traditional tips that we are all familiar with when we dine out. Ask any server, and they will tell you that this will directly affect their day-to-day lifestyle.
You have so much more time to observe and learn with a documentary because of the time between the shoots. You get a much deeper understanding of day-to-day life and its themes.

The day-to-day discomforts of prison life, combined with the big-picture realities of mass incarceration, do not add up to a party.
The way I eat in my day-to-day life is, like, very simple to the point of being absurd. Like, my boyfriend makes fun of me because if I’m eating a snack, it’s often, like, a pickle and then a hard-boiled egg and then crackers and then maybe a carrot, and it’s like I’m eating like a baby.
