I aim to be more human. I aim to be less apathetic as a human. Apathy grows, like a tree, and I aim to prune my own.

  • I’ve tried really hard, and sampled many brands, but other than soy in lattes sometimes, I can’t stand plant based milk in my coffee. Some of it is fine stuff for other uses, or even just drinking, but it just doesn’t come close to the flavor I like as part of my wake up routine. And if my coffee isn’t good it sours my whole day, just a bit.

    I’d love to have something that tastes like milk and feels like milk and does the job of milk, but is vegan.

  • Speaking of succubi, I really liked how that was handled in the book “if I pay thee not in gold”, which isn’t the best pro-feminist work, despite being actually written by a woman and centering around a matriarchal society, or even book, by far, but does include the whole idea that

    a succubus, upon fucking a woman as a man, turns into a woman the following morning, and when turned into a woman, sex with a man would return the male form.

    It was a real eye opener for my teen self, to see not only gender fluidity, but a happy non-monogamous relationship resulting.

    I’m ace/aro so the sexy nature is lost on me but the story itself is good. tho… very superficial.. they could have done so much more with the way that universe works; it’s genuinely a fascinating concept that I’d love to see explored in more depth.

    Still it’s not a long read and worth the effort :)

    The song is good, but the video style choices are very interesting :)

  • I didn’t go for a walk, but I did get my small flock of chickens outside in a run for my mental health. I got sunburn pretty badly for the effort, too, and it took me well over a week to get the whole thing built. But they were getting annoying inside. Every time I passed the bird room they’d get excited and start launching themselves at the side of their tent. It really set the quail off.

    I’m just waiting for someone to complain. I have a license, one of 10 in my town of 15,000. I shouldn’t qualify because of how far into town I am, but I do because I have a unique property and one neighbor who consented (the rest don’t matter, the one is the only within 100ft of the coop). This is all above board, but some people tried keeping geese several years back and had to rehome them because of complaints, so I’m just waiting..

    I magneted my license to my front door so hopefully any complaints just sort of go away without my intervention, even if they don’t check city records… but I have one too many because my friend who got my chicks got one too many in case of deaths. I’m good with birds and have never had one die, including quail and conures, so now I just have an extra Buff Orpington.

  • Could someone with better search skills or knowledge of their discography link to their music for me? I’ve heard it’s good but I legitimately can’t find anything but news videos when I go looking (I don’t use any music handler platforms)

  • Welp.

    I watched several videos in addition to those and feel both better and not, I do understand the simplified analogies in the linked stuff, and they are helpful, as were some of the related content.

    I kinda sorta understand the technical stuff, sort of. I’m not in a tech field or anything..

    I’m going to keep it there regardless of the negative hype because you never know when I’ll need others to do the same. Im not doing anything wrong so it’s whatever.

    I’m up to 10 :)

  • Transmission fluid is the real “I have no idea what that means” thumbs up.

    Because it should hopefully always be clear but it depends where….. and how warm…. And how clean the dipstick was….

    (I recently had transmission issues and omfg there isn’t even a light on my car for low transmission fluid wtf??)

    That said, whenever I have bad heartburn, I take a shot of straight pickle juice (the vinegar kind), and it goes away.

  • This came up as a plot point in some other animated show, and for the life of me I can’t figure out what it was..

    Like the realization that they were hurting so many people so they could survive and save the world or whatever it was.. and it just killed them inside..

    (And I’m fairly certain I’m not thinking of Rick and Morty, although that does sort of happen as well.. and I don’t think it was bojack horseman either..)

  • Thanks for this!

    Well I spent the time between when I posted and when you replied looking into various things related to tor, legality, and snowflake more specifically, as well as a bit after your reply since you gave me a couple extra things to look into.. (like if there’s a risk of running alongside self-host software like Plex and jellyfin, I didn’t find anything about it so I sort of assume it’s fine..?)..

    I didn’t see anything overly bad other than if you yourself use tor, maybe, so took the plunge and.. have had a whole two connections already, so yay, I’m a snowflake!

    I feel slightly better about myself, like when I started using BOINC crowdsource computing for research in the early noughties. :)

  • I’m willing to do this but frankly tor intimidates me big time. I don’t know anything about it other than……. Yep that’s it.

    I read through the mastodon post, and the project page, and cumulatively I didn’t get any answers that, like, make me feel better.

    I assume this is a dark web node sort of thing? Is it safe for me to run the browser extension (idk shit about docker and don’t really want to learn rn), like I’m not putting a target on myself or anything? If yes to question 1, but no to question 2, what does put a target?
