Ok. I find beauty pageants in general to be reductive and gross… but yeah. You can smell the stink on that decision from Canada.
I mean just look at Yamikani.
In no universe are they on the same level.

The regex redirect feature is another massive pro. I hope they bring it into Orion as well.
I already use Stop the Madness for this, and probably will continue to as it’s a more global solution, but having it built right into the search engine at least shows they’re taking real steps to hand control back to the user.
The irony in this statement, talking about a known depressant lol
Drinking for me is increasingly borrowing happiness from tomorrow, and the older I get, the higher the interest rate climbs.
I’ll still enjoy a drink, but have definitely become more choosy about when and whether it’s worth it.
My go-to is to ask what they like to do in their spare time.
A lot of the time you’ll get answers about how they have none or how it’s filled with chores, but you can always redirect and say, if you suddenly had a bunch of free time just for yourself, and you couldn’t use it to work, what would you fill it with?
In my mind the latter gets you down to what brings them joy, and in some cases how they want to see themselves, which can tell you a lot about a person.
Even if they did (they won’t), they can pry my mini out of my hot, irradiated hands.
I think the best we could hope for is a simple firmware update, assuming enough of the right people make noise about it. I’m sure Apple would much rather we all just bought new phones though, so they won’t do anything unless they have to.
Oh I didn’t mean to imply otherwise - Overcast is awesome.
I guess I worded my question poorly. I’m more asking if there’s any way to block trackers without blocking the entire podcast.
The stream/download just hangs, or errors out because it “cannot connect to creep.noteventhehost.fm” or whatever - just won’t load at all until I unblock and it’s able to do its dirty work.
Not sure if this is even within the capabilities of a client… I’m starting to think not, and that I’ve asked a stupid question lol
If you live near water, kayaking can be an incredibly immersive pursuit in nature that doesn’t really tax the body (unless you want it to)
Trail running is another one of my favourite things to do, but while much safer than MTB still can have some risks… minimal though, comparatively speaking
I love this.
It’s one of my passing hobbies to look up word lists like this - some of them are beautiful, and there’s something really satisfying about knowing this obscure and weird thing you’re experiencing is at least “normal” enough to have its own name.
Then I promptly forget, which is annoying, bit also means I get to discover them all over again a few months later.
On this list I can easily identify with 7/8 too
Other words you might appreciate:
Routineer: one that adheres to or insists on routine
Fika: a moment to slow down and appreciate the little things in life
Philocalist: lover of beauty; someone who finds beauty in all things
Querencia: a sanctuary where you feel safe …or even better, Snuggery: a cozy room
Fleshment: excitement associated with a successful beginning (we won’t talk about finishing the project)
Acatalepsy: the idea that it is impossible to truly comprehend anything
Because I’m tired of wearing them by the end of the day, and most of what’s on our household tv I’m not really watching anyway.
Also if I’m messing around on my phone, glasses need to be off b/c distance, and I’m not about to put them on/off every time I switch focus when I’m just trying to relax.
I will wear them if I’m watching something intentionally, though. Like a nature documentary or something with visuals worth appreciating.
I just wanted you to know how much joy the idea of cleaning stains with a hammer gives me
Imagine if it worked? So satisfying
Seriously speaking though, the only “trick” I know is to have dedicated reno clothes
Ok this is super gross, but if it’s just a little blood, I’ve had excellent results using my own spit (before putting it in the proper wash lol)
As for deodorant, it doesn’t have to be denim, but using another fabric does work. I usually just use a sock or a towel, whatever’s handy when I notice it
I used to think of “blocking” as an extreme measure, but for us individuals, it’s really not. You get to decide what your feed looks like. Especially here.
BAMO -> block and move on
What flipped the mental switch for me was facebook, of all places.
I hate it and was off it for years, then we moved to a small town with no subreddit, only a damn fb group. Man I went on a blocking spree with all the proudly terrible people, and now I have both an actually useful local town group AND a separate handy list of people I don’t need to bother meeting.
I made a set with a white background for you :)
That shortcut! You seriously rock, thank you.
I love a good gezpacho in the summer. Super refreshing
This one’s new to me and it sounds delicious. I love everything that’s in it. The colour is gonna be a challenge for westerners though… Pepto Bismol trauma giving me an unpleasant Pavolvian response to that shade of pink haha
Feel like it might be worth trying anyway
Yeah I tried reaching out to them the day they posted looking for a graphic designer, but they left me on read for the whole week so ehh
Just saw their new icon though, and it’s nice. For sure better than the rudolph rat.
Oh man I absolutely feel this.
I’ve been self employed WFH for almost 20yrs now and the lunch-alone struggle has not gotten easier.
When I do make the effort though, it’s usually worth it.
Lately I’ve been in a rut where, if I get up from my desk at all, it’s to forage, not prepare a meal. Like, I’ll call a fistful of peanuts or a banana lunch, or some cold fridge meat with mustard and no plate. It’s depressing.
When I make something colourful and intentional, though, I always feel better. It forces me to get my head out of work mode and take a break, and it’s satisfying to make something that looks and tastes nice. I feel more like a person too, if that makes sense. Not to mention my brain works better when I actually feed it real food, heh
Like anything, it’s just starting that’s the hard part.
Ha, try it and see! I like it, my spouse does not.
If you just immediately plunk it on there it can definitely steam the greens under it, but I let the fish rest 5mins on some folded paper towel first so it works good enough :)
I don’t even watch sports and I get buried in gambling ads.
Only started after moving to a somewhat struggling blue collar town, but it was immediate, and the pure volume of it was shocking. Really hit me wrong.
Adblock and VPN everywhere possible now. Degoogling, containerized browsing, hardened settings, like damn basic privacy shouldn’t have to be so much work.
