I stayed off for a day but I need longer, feel terrible today. Book is a great idea.

Luckily I’d booked a massage for today with a wonderful person.

I default to absurd but what I appreciated reading about stoicism was that it made me feel more grounded. Ridiculousness makes me feel expansive and unpredictable and I wasn’t finding a bottom to that.

Thanks, this is good advice.

So uh… what’s the right attitude to deal with this assuming we get a Trump? And I mean personally. I lean towards absurdism.

an attack on men and women! well done @[email protected]

Because it’s not fun

I appreciate the updates. I’ve been in the same place. It’s all small beans but on top of everything else in life these little things can put me over the edge. Proton has an aggressive advertising model and it’s turned me away from their products.

Id expect more voting and less comments in political posts just because people may want to avoid direct conflict with other users. I’m iffy on the whole up/down thing in general though.

I replaced mine with a usb cable. No batteries.

It’s unbearable if I try watching a game alone but if I’m watching and drinking with a friend the board/banner ads and commercials become comical. They could limit the use of distracting colours in the ads if they are going to ice level but apparently not.

Just being alive counts

Make good use of the community/user block feature and it cleans up well. It took me a couple times going back and forth but I’m done with reddit at this point, at least for general scrolling ‘all’ sort of content.

It’s already everywhere

Counter productive and hypocritical to put people into convenient groups like that to shield your opinions against any form of criticism. Well done, you’ve earned a block.

The obvious ones like cats, linux, and star trek but also meta-posts like these, comics, non-political memes, greentext, bikes, general technology. There are collapsniks and conservatives have been trying to settle recently. There’s a wide variety of niche content but they are small enough that for every 10 visitors you need someone to post something. There’s a lot here, it’s small compared to extremely large sites but is still an active message board.

yes and no

I shouldn’t probably just try anti-depressants one of these days, that’s why I want so much caffeine lately. It helps.
