  • I really like that! I agree with the other commenters here that to me it feels really hollow when we’re not doing anything to back it up. This though feels meaningful. I’m going to run this by my team for our future classes. Thanks!

    Edit: I realized I didn’t answer your question. Generally it’s along the lines of “we are gathered here on the traditional lands of the Snuneymuxw people. We are fortunate to live, work, and play in these lands.” It varies and people add their own bits in, but that’s what I hear mostly. Maybe I like what y’all say better because it leaves us right out, we’ve butted in enough, this is about the First Nations.

  • Name one material thing you yearned for when you were younger, but never got it, and now in retrospect you're glad you didn't get it because ______?

  • A perm. I wanted one so bad back in the 80s. Luckily my hairdresser, who was my whole family’s hairdresser and a friend too, refused. She was a tiny Thai lady who was a force of nature, had a little half basement salon in DC. We would all go and get our hair cut together, I think mostly because there was a pub nearby my dad could go have drinks at while he waited for us.

    I’m sure that her reasoning was sound in that it would destroy my hair, but I also think both her and my mom knew how terrible it would look since I’m lazy af and wouldn’t style it. Over the years I’ve only ever dyed my hair a handful of times, never curled or straightened it, no product as I can’t stand the feeling of it. I think it’s helped keep it healthy and now as I’m hitting later 40s and finally know how to really care for it (and have a hairdresser that understands my curls), it’s FABULOUS. Very little grey, big curls and ringlets. It’s the hair I’ve always wanted. Still don’t do shit to it lol. Lazy ftw!

  • What’s you obscure low key achievement this year?

    Jump

  • I am on a 6834 game win streak in spider solitaire. This wasn’t all this year, but this is where I am now. Out of 9215 games I’ve lost 3 times, twice at the beginning when I didn’t realize you could undo the whole game and start again, and one when my phone glitched. It’s a small easily achievable goal when my life/brain is too much. I don’t think I’ll make 10k games before new years, but that’s ok. Shout out to Digital Smoke for making a solitaire app that doesn’t track you.

  • I love Inkscape, it’s so intuitive! I didn’t even need to read the docs. And now that Affinity is coming to Linux I’m hoping I can switch my work to these options.

  • Dude. I’ve never self harmed but I HATE shaving. My waxer that I’ve gone to for almost 20 years retired recently and I’ve just let it all go. This information is mind blowing. THANK YOU.

  • I told my boss my mind is like a kinda broken bag of holding. Half the time you put your hand in you get the thought or memory you want, the other half is anyone’s guess. She said that explains a lot.

  • What's an album with a completely unique sound

  • It’s funny because I’m not a HHH by any stretch of the imagination! But man, this is a desert island album for me. I absolutely get what you mean about the outlaw feeling though.

  • A Grand Don’t Come For Free by The Streets. I love this album start to finish and it’s got a great story right through it.

    First time I heard it I’d gotten an email from Vice promoting it and I clicked the link thinking it would just be the first 20 seconds of each song but it was the whole album! Was just starting a movie but I never watched it, just listened to the album straight through. So good.

  • What is your favorite kitchen gadget?

    Jump

  • I found a really nice horizontal loaf style machine at my local thrift store and the loaves come out just like regular store bought loaves. We also use it to knead and proof dough if we’re doing something that needs a different shape. It’s been a game changer for sure.

  • Bread guillotine gets the most use by far, but the toaster oven and bread machine would be next. Instant pot after that.

  • Digital clocks might be easier for you, but not everyone. I chunk my time and looking at an analog clock helps me to visualize everything I’m going to be doing. I can’t do that with a digital clock. I will be the dinosaur clutching my analog clock when I’m old lol.
