FYI for anyone not in the know, this is the Good Good Good Newspaper advertised by Hank Green

It only consists of "good" news and is very uplifting - generally every print edition features some kind of theme like "animals" or "medicine" or "art"

If you can afford to support, I think it's a great way to encourage more uplifting news in our world

In my mind, charisma is easily the hardest one to improve. The rest you can grind out or get better with age but Charisma is tough

White.

I think because when I was young I associated it with angels and purity and I wanted to be a good person.

Now I just think it looks crisp and clean and it's always been "my" color in games

CDN would be my guess as well. Maybe not different, but they would definitely have their ads queued up on every CDN possible while the video content is unlikely to be on your nearest CDN unless it's a Mr. Beast video

Everyone has about the same answers here, and I agree with many, but I've got a weird one:

Super Size Me

Something about it just compels me. And it always makes me want McDonald's afterwards... I truly struggle to explain why.

Love this channel, I've watched his videos for a couple years now. His scientific method can leave a lot to be desired at times, but it's still great information and I always keep them in mind.

This is one of the more iconic ones, in my mind, but he's still going strong today

That's a sensitive topic

I have a four, but most are from instances I've moved away from.

Started on Beehaw but when they started defederating from everyone I made a programming.dev account.

Also created a personal instance, but it was too heavy for my NAS to be worth it.

Finally, an Mbin account recently because the communism stuff from the main developers seems to be pretty contentious right now and I want to explore alternatives while I'm still happy with Lemmy. If some "event" happens and I find the need to move somewhere else its good to have an alternative in the pocket

I see a lot of posts that are spam that get a shipload of down votes. Usually advertising some pills or something

Fortunately, they are removed pretty quickly

Edit: Hey look one showed up

I stopped shopping at Amazon years ago because of these brands. Shopping on there is too difficult to ensure you're getting a high quality product from a reputable company, there are too many fake companies with cheap knockoffs.

And don't even get me started on the reviews system and how fundamentally broken it is

People you don't need to shop at Amazon for everything. It's better for your wallet if you just give up the site and shop direct from the companies whenever possible
