Definitely the pissed one. It costs next to nothing to farm any particular platform via bots, so why not go for anything that might have niche demographics? Destabalizing leftist groups seems to be sort of a goal of certain other groups these days so…
You must not have heard it enough because I heard it seriously all the time and I’m doing great and like sure I can’t sleep and stuff but I’m totally fine and doing great now as an adult and it’s totally unrelated that I’m not employed and super anxious about literally every moment awake because who knows what’s coming but honestly I’m super fine so not to worry.
(That was so hard to write without punctuation, but that’s how it feels)
I made some video game themed Xmas ornaments out of air dry clay as a gift… they turned out fine, but I didn’t realize the paint I used on them didn’t do a good enough job sealing them up. They should have been resin-dipped. In places the paint cracked, moisture got in, and over a couple years expanded the paper-based clay through the cracks so they look super creepy now. Very disappointing.
Mistakes are a great way to learn, though.
This misses the most important part.
Every other part of history is crammed just before the 1900s, as a big lump sum. Who cares how long ago the 1600s are, it’s basically the same as the 1900s, right?
If you haven’t already come across them, you should check out some of the communities over on https://slrpnk.net/, we’ve got stuff from urban development and farming to transport, tech, and aesthetics :)
I don’t live there so I’m maybe out of the loop here, but why not Michigan?
On the subject of existing asset use… I played yonder: the cloud catcher chronicles, and I am fairly certain the sound for rain in that game is actually the sound of something gently sizzling in a pan.
It’s super close, but -just- wrong enough for me to notice. And then be mildly bothered by it for the next 40 hours of playtime.
I spent 172 hours retrying the final boss fight on ff8. I mistakenly saved just before the end boss with 2 phoenix downs, a handful or potions and ethers, and not much else. It took weeks to beat her alone.
I learned many things in those multiple weeks of doing basically the same thing over and over again, with minor tweaks to strategy… the first of which is always maintain a second save at least 3 hours prior to the current save. The second thing was never have an empty inventory even if you legit never bother using any of it. Don’t sell anything until you hit max stax.
And finally I learned that sometimes trying the same exact thing for the 20th time actually does work for reasons. And that was on like ps1 framework. A lot more stuff is a lot more random now.
If it helps (it probably won’t)… I feel the same about Ritalin. I was on it ages 5-13, took myself off because it didn’t feel right or good (also I was on way way way too high a dose and I’m an angry tiny adult now as a result yay…) and then when I was mid 30s got rediagnosed and Rx the same fscking drug but called methylphenidate… and shockingly I don’t bother taking it because it still doesn’t help, it just makes me even more skilled at procrastination, but they won’t try anything else and I don’t have the energy to give a shit because I’ve been unmedicated this long… fuck it.
You might want to try other drugs, they might help you, if you can get them to try something else.
Or if you’ve been unmedicated long enough to learn how to function and the drugs only help with energy to follow through, but do absolutely nothing to motivate you in the first place (as is the case for me), you can choose to take them selectively on days you want to accomplish something but don’t really care what it is.
I also hate it. And the fediverse in general is super against it. And I’m super here for that.
Same tbh. But we do have some normies who stumbled in by chance, and I’m sure there are people who see these small communities as a ripe exploitation vector (during the Reddit exodus everyone was super concerned with how to monetize shit, for example)
But yeah for the most part nobody really wants that.
I don’t think anyone here really wants that.
That tracks. I lived way out on a pseudo-farmstead as a teen and that’s when I stopped taking meds. I was on them from 5-12 and then started cheeking them and stuff… parents didn’t notice until they found my stash, and went “well, we didn’t notice, and you seem fine, so what do you want to do?” And I was off them until 32. I have a year stash of them now because I still don’t take them consistently, but have them for big jobs. They don’t give me motivation, so they don’t really help.
I’ve also read that natural environments alone are enough to sooth a lot of said symptoms. Nature has a lot of sights, sounds, smells, and other sensations, so the body is fully stimulated, but not in an artificial, grating or irritating sort of way. Like I can stand the sound of wind, but a white noise generator, not so much.
This sort of thing honestly has me nervous about my plans to solo develop a large property into a small farm homestead… on as small a budget as possible because I’d rather not have a bullshit other job.
I can hypothetically do things… but when… that’s the problem.
Took 6 years to fix the hole in my living room ceiling. Mostly because I don’t care and it didn’t impact anything other than looking ugly… it’s also probably a good thing I didn’t seal it up because I lost an exterior vent cover that hooks to a duct that apparently doesn’t exist anymore, and some birds got in and exited through the living room hole… but regardless.
However I think I’ve finally overcome my burnout and deep depression (been intentionally unemployed for just over a year, and thus not looking for work, which is peaceful), and I’ve been actually getting a lot of stuff done, so maybe my dreams of installing my own solar, geothermal, root cellar, green house, barns, three season porches, etc… are doable if I don’t give myself deadlines…
I guess I haven’t really had the smelly problem (or at least nobody has mentioned it…). I have to use unscented detergents due to fragrance allergy, and I think thats a big part of why I don’t have that problem. The scented detergents leave so many residues to hold the scent that your own scent tends to stick more. Or maybe you just notice it more as it mingles with a scent you are used to. Not sure, but the unscented stuff at worst smells a bit musty.
When I get deodorant buildup or the musty smell, I do a warm cycle with enzyme detergent (usually wash on tap cold, but when I do a warm cycle I use dirty labs unscented enzyme detergent. I’ve tried others, including scented, before I found that and they worked decently too) and it clears right up.
If you have the smelly problem with bedsheets or towels or anything, look into laundry stripping. You can do it with natural cotton and whatever clothing as well, but it requires super hot water so it does cause some damage to the fabric.
Considering I buy clothes every few years at most, still have clothes from middle school and I’m almost 40, generally don’t throw stuff out when it starts getting worn just repurpose it, and recently started buying almost exclusively athletic clothing due to build and material quality, probably a really long time tbh.
I also don’t usually wear clothes at home, which helps. Bathrobe. I have five of those.
I’d bet I could survive the bulk of my remaining life without getting new clothes, but they’d be in rough shape by then.
Cone of shame has really evolved over time, hasn’t it?
I just got a notice that a place I worked 12 years ago got breached and my info like full name and social was in it.
Cool. Idk why they even kept info that far back…
I had a banana scented body wash as a kid…
I was a dumb kid and was curious, so I tasted it.
And I gotta tell you, it tasted like banana. Not good banana, but it didn’t taste that bad like soap…
I for sure spent a solid 15 hours trying to sort out which game mods were causing a problem after adding ~50 at once…
Turned out to be the runner I was using through lutris… just not quite right.
I can do that, sure, but cleaning cat boxes which takes all of 10 minutes? Making myself food, from the freezer? Loading the dishwasher? Nahh, can’t do those.
