Fuck man, if I had more money I'd buy you the steam page :(

Hope you can get that soon! Maybe your indie might just be what you need to get your financial freedom :) good luck!

Fruits. I don't have the habit of eating any fruit. It's super unhealthy and when I do remember to buy fruit when grocery shopping, I am always surprised how good it tastes, only to forget about it for a couple more months...

I did just that about 7 or so years ago. Only gave my number to family members and really close people (maybe 5 at most). Also deleted all my social media.

One of the best decisions of my life.

Unfortunately, I was just getting started on "the real world" and would get any job thrown my way. One of them required me to reply to my manager on WhatsApp so I ended having to create one and give them my number. I've since left that job and I'm now no longer a junior in my field, but still feels feels bad on my record :(

I'm from the EU and sadly this has become more and more the norm here. I remember a time when we had very little SUVs here but now they seem to be everywhere. And it's a really busy capital city, so the streets are narrow. I can't understand why people would buy big cars here...

That's sounds like an amazing time. I felt relaxed just reading your description of it... 🥲

I see some Linux but I'm subscribed to a lot of techy communities. Self host, programming etc. So it's kinda normal.

Could be the default view on each instance... On my first account I subbed to a lot of different communities on different instances so I saw all the crap. Eventually due to all the politics bullshit I just migrated to my current instance which has hexbear and lemmygrad blocked so it's been a lot better.

But even so, I always see a bunch of politics crap on the memes community.

Honestly, blahaj also seems to have a lot of deranged people. A lot of great people too, but with my instance defederating from Hexbear and lemmygrad, when I see those kinda of comments it's usually blahaj.

They aren't as bad though of course. It's bearable.

2 wrongs don't make a right

Why so much hate for cardboard straws D:

I use Firefox and also got that pop-up. Eventually I just grew tired of clicking the "X" button so I went on uBlock origin and added that stupid banner and the banner background to the blacklist.

It's like nothing ever happened. And if shit continues to get worse, either someone comes up with a fix somehow, or I'll just find a way to run ReVanced YouTube apk on my pc or something. I don't care if I have to emulate it somehow.

Also, on mobile GrayJay is a good alternative to ReVanced. Made by LouisRossmann's team apparently.

I've had that in happen to me where I try to click on something and it opens a new page. I go back to the previous page. Aim for the link I want to click... Press it... refresh Click the wrong one again...

Sometimes this can go on for 3 or 4 times. I feel like I'm going insane when it happens. How can something so simple be so complicated

Yeah there was this news story a long time ago of 2 girls that were stuck on an elevator in Lisbon (Portugal). Apparently they looked up some number on their phones for Lisbon but since they were from the US it suggested some random city named Lisbon there. They spent a lot of time trying to explain where the elevator was located until they realised it wasn't the same Lisbon.

(I think it's a true story. Might just be an urban legend from Lisbon I guess 🤷‍♂️)
