the best cooking is vibe-based
you can do it with baking too but you've really gotta know your stuff, mostly I just do breads and dough by vibe since I've gotten a good feel for hydration and gluten development
Costco gas prices are relatively stable, but even still... last week I paid $2.49, today I paid $2.94. That's the highest per-gallon price I've paid since I started tracking my fuel spending and usage in June of last year.
cop tailgated me for two residential miles while I drove the speed limit, then stopped me because my brake light was flickering occasionally
I was polite and respectful
I was and still am extremely anxious
But mostly I'm just pissed off that anyone would think this is the best use of their time
This brought back memories... When I was in elementary school one of the other kids brought in their DSi in this exact color.
We weren't exactly friends, he was way more popular than me, but I got to sit and watch him play - basking in the kind of amazement you can only have when you're 10.
perhaps... but smaller independent websites are dying out, old hosting services close down, images become corrupted or unavailable, links disconnected, and AI is pumping everything full of convincing-looking misinformation
but we can still read books, learn, and stand witness to our own history
Agreed!
I know there's issues with the DSM and it's not the end-all-be-all for mental health, BUT it's still interesting and still represents progress towards better understanding of ourselves and the human condition.
Hey friends, it's -15 degrees outside! In temps like this, exposed or improperly insulated skin can get frostbitten in as little as 10 minutes. Here's how you care for it if it happens.
First, you need to identify what level of frostbite you have!
Yikes! I generally love Costco but have never worked with their optical department... that sounds terrible. You should be able to take your signed prescription anywhere and use it to order contacts, including online. They have no right to interfere with you having a copy of your own medical records.
Additionally, who thinks boarding early is such a great privilege? I can't believe they charge more for it. The last thing I want to do is spend extra time sitting on the thinnest cheapest seats crammed inside a smelly flying tube.
Being AuDHD can mean living in extremes:
All-in⦠or checked out
Not hungry⦠or absolutely starving
Way too early⦠or running late
A cluttered home⦠whilst needing order
Wanting company⦠but far too overstimulated to socialise
Craving noveltyβ¦ but also needing everything to stay the same π«
mine came early this year ^o^
Two golden US one dollar coins stacked on top of each other slightly askew so the years on both coins are visible side-by-side. The coin on top is George Washington 1789-1797, and below is Abraham Lincoln 16th President 1861-1865. Lincoln has much smaller text.
I'm not sure if it's intentional or just part of my sample, but I also noticed the text for the years is a smaller font on presidents who were in office less than four years. Here's Washington and Lincoln.
A golden US one dollar coin featuring William Henry Harrison, 9th president 1841
Also interesting to note, the president coins have the years they were in office stamped on them. Well, I just happened to get one coin of the shortest-term president, William Henry Harrison, who died in office after just one month. He only gets one year listed.
19 one dollar US coins sorted by type
I bought a physical bus ticket for the first time a few days ago, and all I had was a $20 bill that my grandma gave me. I didn't realize I'd be getting $19 in coins back... but it's still kinda cool to see the variation.
I've always wanted a bathroom for my coats and a bedroom that is all cabinetry

In a pinch with bad/dead fans I've used a big box fan before, take the side panel off and put it there (leave a few inch gap since box fans are not good under static pressure).
You also may have friends or family who would appreciate practical gifts this season. I like to use this time to take a closer look:
Do they wear worn-out shoes? Are their clothes warm enough for the season? Do they have good tires and brakes? Do they have meals and the means to cook them? Etc.
"recreate the conditions of their broken homeland" - if that's the case, nobody should be letting US citizens migrate to their countries, we're more broken than ever Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
Okay, usually the "click to view the end of the comic" thing annoys me, but THIS one was totally worth it xD
I absolutely love this design, but the screen printing on mine has worn out over the years.
Do you have any advice for keeping them in better shape? Or have you thought about switching to dye-sublimation or something similarly more durable?
They could at least bother to tell you what all changes they're making, why it's so important they cram it down your throat, but instead you're lucky to get a vague "security and performance :)". Then you're left with new issues, missing functionality, and features you didn't want nor ask for.
I'm sick of forced updates. Literally shut down my device in the middle of using it. I can't save my work, I can't opt out, I can't even delay the inevitable (they removed that option last update). I have even "turned off" automatic downloading of updates, but of course they download anyway.

That's a wonderful problem to have
Obviously the choice isn't always so simple - we wear that mask so we fit in, we keep the status quo, make ourselves approachable and easy to digest. You rely on your art for income, and your choices directly impact your livelihood.
Whatever you choose, I understand, and you have my support <3
I'm not the only one who's tired of putting on a smile saying "I'm fine" every day when I'm not. I think we need to be uncomfortable more, confront those difficult feelings head-on. These are a normal part of the human experience, denying our internal realities wears us down and holds us back.
I can totally understand why you would move towards safe, easily digestible, comfortable content - many others have been doing the same.
Personally, I prefer the real stuff. Art that's raw and genuine; it's relatable, it's validating, it reminds me that I'm not broken, and helps me feel less alone.
My favorite is when you get the ones that have the extra toasty flat edges, it feels special, like finding a shiny.
