I’m on a Mastodon that’s defederated and a Lemmy that’s federated. Let the games begin!

Well, this is in Renton. That’s well outside of Seattle, and a city unto itself. Vancouver beats pretty much everyone, though!

I just switched to Antennapod, so I don’t have data from this year yet. I would guess my top three were:

  • Kill James Bond
  • 538
  • possibly This Day in Esoteric Political History, but those shows are really short.

Whoa, tin foil hat engaged!

But also, this is catharsis.

A lot of beauty products. Nail polish, makeup, hair dryers, hairbrushes, you name it. Some terrible (and even ozone-destroying) chemicals have been removed, and with the proliferation of online reviews and images you can pick something that won’t burn your eyes and will actually work.https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c492fad8-05a0-4803-8685-14b1b020e07c.jpeg

Seriously, that’s a 20-25 minute walk. Perfect, natural exercise opportunity completely wasted!

One might even say, “figuratively”. If one had thought of that word while creating the caption.

Are you sure it’s not a Furby?

Yeah, I was exceptionally lazy this morning.

They actually don’t use volunteers here. They pay people to do the work. I asked Julie Wise about this at a town hall once. You can go observe, though.

Don’t they do this every year? “Oh, no, we’re going to do soooooo badly this holiday season!!1!1!” Only to have record profits, yet again. Set market expectations low then ✨✨dazzle✨✨ them. 🙄 Meanwhile we’re all paying more for lower quality plastic.

That’s the exact shape of a certain type of menstrual cup.

Mine has a window and a light, but the light won’t turn on until the dishes are done so you can effectively see nothing in there. The conspiracy continues!

They need a red flag/extreme risk protection order (ERPO) law in their state, at the very least. If used, such a law could have prevented this. It’s one of the things that Moms Demand Action has been pushing for.

My friend volunteers at a food bank in a fairly affluent, bedroom community. She says they’ve seen massive increases in the number of clients they serve and the needs of those clients, all while resources are drying up. It’s rough out there.

Whoa, that site is awesome! I switch between Ghirardelli’s and Lindt’s super dark bar varieties. Looks like I need to stick with Ghirardelli.

I got annoyed enough that I got a Nebula subscription. I don’t think that helped Google.

Thought it was mango from the pic, which would be delicious!

And after that, install all the updates. And then you’re tired and ready for bed. Maybe tomorrow?

Um, woman with a ROG here. 😁 I do not bring it with me to defend high profile clients in court, though.

I’m one of the suckers who always tips, but I also worry that those tips aren’t actually getting to the workers. I would much prefer a system that just pays them a living wage!

Yes, Angelfire!! My first website was there. It was ✨ sparkly✨ and quite lovely. 😂 I only ever see people talk about Live Journal nowadays, which I think was after my time.

I hate massages while they’re happening. They hurt like hell. But then afterward, my back is golden for weeks, so it’s worth it. I just have to endure!

Yes! “Eh, I’ll try anything once” was my immediate reaction.

New to America USA, how do you socialize and meet new people?

I recently moved to the USA, from the middle east. My English is pretty good, and I don’t have a lot of trouble communicating with people at work or in stores. I also don’t know anyone here at all, outside of work. All my family is still back in Gaza, and I’ve been here over a year now, and still feel cut off from American...

In my experience, it takes months or even years of being in the same orbit of some people to actually become friends with them. It usually starts with meeting for coffee after an event, or some other time that works for both of you. I’m in the PNW (Pacific Northwest), so coffee is our go to. Just keep showing up, make sure you strike up conversations with people, and when it feels right ask them to swap contact info with you.

Against the Storm. I can pick it up whenever I have a free minute, and pause it or save and quit when I need to be doing something else. It’s just enough of a challenge to be immersive when I’m playing, but the stakes are low enough that it’s not stressful. And the music/ambient noise is lovely.

Looking for recommendations

Looking for period shows set between 1920 and the 50s. Shows that have a feel similar to LA Confidential, if that makes sense. I’ve got World on Fire and Perry Mason on my list. I’m not terribly picky about the genre, it’s the period and the setting I am interested in. I am hoping to find some gems I have overlooked that...

Carnivale, Boardwalk Empire, the last season or two of Downton Abbey, Call the Midwife, Marvelous Mrs Maisel. All of those came up on search (amongst many more), and I enjoyed them. Mrs Maisel is one of my favorite shows ever.

I completely forgot how explicit this song is! I added it to my playlist a while ago and it came on when I had my teenager in the car with me. Whoops.

Stitcher died?? I hadn’t even heard that news.

That question doesn’t have to be about work. What are his other hobbies? Does he have kids? Collectibles? Volunteer interests?

Just find a local Democrat group, irl in your area. They likely won’t be as progressive as you want, but you can have a voice in the candidates and initiatives they endorse. They also won’t be tankies.
