Reminds me of Dr. Marijuana Pepsi Vandyck. She did her thesis on uncommon black names.

Literally everything I’ve vibe coded the #1 security feature is local only storage. I trust it naught with security LOL.

Yeah I use it to break up my ADHD monosentence paragraphs. I’ll tell it to avoid changing my wording (it can add definitions if it thinks the word is super niche or archaic) but mostly break things up into more readable sentences and group / reorder sentences as needed for better conceptual flow. It’s actually a pretty good low level editor.

Was just talking about something very similar in another community LOL

I would assume you dispose of the parts that frequently touched your bodily fluids and list the “frame” and where to purchase replacement parts in the eBay listing. Somebody out there wants a sex doll and only has $500. Or contact the manufacturer.

Loving the diagram. Keep up the good educational work.

Oh it’s a good one. Like I might use that. Like damn. Say “grow up” but utterly roast the person while you do it!

it’s the only social media I have that still has my real name attached. I use it to keep in contact with old coworkers, keep and host my resume, and I like their daily games. It also makes it easier to spitefully apply to other jobs at 2am but then those jobs actually call me and I realize I don’t want to have to learn 30 new people’s names and a new set of nightly charting requirements all over again. Doesn’t mean I don’t threaten my boss occasionally anyway.

Fun fact from a psych nurse: you can usually estimate how many years a person has spent abusing substances by how many years behind they seem in their emotional development. A 30y/o who still acts 20ish has probably spent ~10 years using. It’s not necessarily contiguous, they might have started at fifteen, used for 3, got sober for two, used for 7 more then been sober for the last 3, but they’ve probably spent about ten years using in total. Abusing substances lets people avoid the psychological crises they would normally need to confront to grow as a person. When they stop using they don’t get to skip ahead, they have to pick up maturing from where they left off. It can also happen with non-substance behavioral addictions (like gambling) but it has to be real bad.

The older I get the more I lose faith that the concept will ever be used to actually benefit creators.

CVSs and Walmarts usually have a free BP check station if OP lives in that part of the world. I second this by the way. Pork is often prepared with a lot of sodium.

People act like it’s easy to get into and conceptualize fedi. I don’t have a problem personally but I have a very rare level of IT comfort for my field and it leaves me feeling very lonely in spaces like this. I even had to take a tech competency credit for my degree (I tested out of it because it was basically a checkbox that asked if I knew how to type but-)

pppsssst: that’s why your body can’t tell the difference!

Breaking news: caffeine is DRUGS people!

This is not sarcasm; it is a psychoactive stimulant on par with coke and amphetamines. Your heart and kidneys do not know what drug schedules are.

Enjoy your psychoactive drugs responsibly kids. And remember that enjoying responsibly =/= deluding yourself into thinking they’re healthy.

My addiction ed for new techs that were hired with few to no actual psych qualifications is that they’re almost definitely addicted to something and just happen to be lucky enough that it’s legal. Common legal addictions:

• nicotine
• caffeine
• gambling including microtransaction phone games
• social media
• pornography
• processed sugar

Meet people: hobby or spiritual community are the two big ones most people meet a partner at. Look up cheap hobbies in particular something like a walking club.

Cheap places to take a girl:

• fish around in conversations for her favorite food. Pick the prettiest spot within walking distance. Pick somewhere out of the way but visible to passerby like the edge of a park. Check the calendar for favorable weather. Bring a blanket, that favorite food, and anything needed to make the environment comfy like an umbrella.

• if it’s just not the time of year for favorable weather book a library or community center presentation room and in addition to food fish around in convos for a favorite movie. Still bring a large blanket and push the tables and wheely chairs out of the way.

Any partner who finds effort over cash undesirable is just not a good fit for your life right now.

first of all, right?

Christianity was at it’s height when it was a syncretistic antiestablishment death cult. If I ever get a time machine Athasnasius of Alexandria is above Hitler on my hitlist. It’s not even because I have beef with the number three shit even the taoists like the number 3. but using the number 3 as a way to intentionally create divisions so that they can become opposing sides in over a millennia of wars is unconsciensable.

Suicide should be a human right. You should have to prove that you’re of sound mind and that you’ve considered and tried all other options. But once you’ve proven you’re not manic, psychotic, intoxicated, being coerced, etc and no other option will reasonably bring you peace you should be able to do it and get help making sure you don’t get stuck halfway or receive comfort care only until it’s over. Also every psych unit I’ve worked requires suspension of a DNR which terrifies me for involuntary admits.

Had an micro teacher a long time ago at community college where 90% of his students were in healthcare career tracks. He told us when we’re home to roll in the dirt, eat food straight off the vine after a quick polish with your shirt and for the most part only wash our hands after the toilet and before eating / prepping food or anything specifically medical like wound care or putting on contracts and that you should basically never use hand sanitizer at home. …then at work you wash your hands every time you touch pretty much anything. Said that was the key to a strong immune system.

It’s not the age gap it’s the raising her / being her caretaker as a small child and having all those surrogate father-daughter moments. Switching suddenly from father-daughter to love interest… 😬
