The best part is when your energy starts high and pleasant, and then cycles through all of the rest of those before landing on emotionally dysfunctional toddler because it’s gotten too much.

The experience is completely different, as well.

Professional drivers know where they are going, best routes to get there depending on time of day, and are willing to talk to you about the area and offer tips. Plus they are held to much higher driving standards than Uber/lyft drivers, who are literally just some random person.

Is “pay or okay” legal where you are?

If not, report the fuck out of them.

Oh that thing is just about ready to pop!

There’s an episode of red dwarf that centers on that. They accidentally save him from being shot and the entire country falls apart because all his business comes out.

2 that I know of, but that’s the majority of my social circle (not working, no family). The other people I don’t think would want to because it’s different and difficult and those are “leave everything at default” sort of people when it comes to tech, so lost cause anyway.

Both the people who do use it are there because of me, though!

My partner and I were struggling when I was android and they were iOS, there was delays that threw everything out of order, so we tried a few messaging apps that worked cross platform and I found signal and we started using it together, and my friend started using it when dating a new person because e2ee for naughty photos and stuff, at my suggestion. They were using Snapchat and I was like ummmm.. no. Don’t do that. But we use it to talk all the time now.

The good news is with all the small plastic bits floating around the environment, it’s only a matter of time until something evolves to decompose it. Tons and tons of surface area in a wide variety of environments and exposed to a wide variety of microorganisms. I mean heck even our anaerobic gut microbes are getting a chance! And plastic is basically just energy in solid form, so it’ll happen sooner or later.

The bad news is if that happens while we still use plastics, we are going to have a bad time with it.

We probably won’t even know it’s happening until it’s spread far and wide.

Personally, as a child-free person, if someone I was interested in wanted bio kids, I’d immediately stop being interested because that’s not something you can compromise on. It’s a fundamental incompatibility, imho.

It sounds like you aren’t really hurting for options, so, you know.. probably not worth the effort.

Mm frankly I’d risk the curse for mummy’s mix. It’s gotta be fucking great if what’s around now is any comparison. Like I fucking love snacks from all the regions I’ve had a chance to try (mostly, tho not entirely, Asian countries) I’d love to try some from anywhere in the Middle East or Africa, that seems pretty neat.

Pro life tip: if you don’t think you need to keep info long term, but you need it for a short time, your browser address bar works super well to temporarily keep info you have no reason to save beyond like 20 min.

You can save it if you want, but the default is to search for it and that won’t do diggity dog shit if you are looking for a company.

Aw shit this is why you get an electric mower. If the shit don’t work, move on to something that does, always.

Or another fucking game yo. I’m sure fnv isn’t worth the effort, if they can’t even keep it running..

If that applies to some autist, that’s great. I love representation.

But that’s really specific, and not at all the way any of my hyperfixations have ever worked.. ever. Unless this means finding terribly unsuitable things to learn about and just forcing them on people (which we learn to not do, often early in life which ruins a lot of our personalities….) . But we used to call those people history/sports buffs.

Is this an ableist ideal of hyper fixation? Feels like it to me.
