Financially, we are well enough to have my family’s needs met comfortably but frugally. Can’t really ask for more, though additional breathing room would be nice. We can afford emergencies and recover after some time.
My parents and grandparents taught frugality; luck made ends meet like a good job and buying a house at the right time.
We have a bit of savings I have in mutual funds because I’m currently too mentally tired and risk-averse to pick something with higher return potential.
Am American, don’t know what this says
I’ve read about YouTube delaying video play, buffering, and showing a blank screen for X seconds on all videos for non-Chrome browsers.
The desktop crashes don’t sound like YouTube, but I think the rest is the genuine anti-competitive behavior Google has demonstrated. I get these 5-6 second video delays and page refreshes on Firefox and Safari periodically but never in Chrome.
Easily one of the best games of all time, the whole series too. The sounds, the designs, the mechanics, the puzzles, but the story…the story is top tier.
If you have time to finish them all, you won’t be disappointed!
Parks and Rec is gold, and Andy Samberg is a treasure
Physically…can’t compare to much of this thread, probably one of my surgeries.
Emotionally though, losing my dad. Worse than I could have ever imagined and still so painful.
Call your parents/loved ones, folks. It’s worth the time and effort; if not for them, then for your future self.
i was looking for this quote in the thread haha. “Duke on!”
Scraping is definitely needed, but you might be able to make some changes to save water and time. Sharing this from Technology Connections, this guy saved me so much dish pre washing time!
Yessss!! And when they had taquitos with the different dipping sauces!
The Half Life, Portal, and Left 4 Dead series’s bring me nostalgia like no others. Unbelievably good games
Something about Twisted Metal 2… absolute top of that franchise
Minimum punishment for a sitting or former supreme court justice for any crime:
instant death.
I like you.
A couple things I value and a few childish superficial things.
I remember saying something like “why can’t I just meet a really kind, intelligent, kinda nerdy” then I forget, then “short, brown-haired girl?”
And my now-sister in law, “OMG that’s my sister!” Honestly, it feels like it was meant to be.
The whole shitness of that workplace was redeemed by this one single moment from my sister in law lol.
That’s really sweet!
I worked with her older sister for a couple years, perfectly content being single. One day, randomly blurted out that I hated being single. Her sister asked me to describe what I wanted, I said a few things, and “You just described my sister! Let me introduce you.”
Apparently, she had already thought we would be perfect together. That was 16 years ago, and we’ve been married for almost 13. I could not ask for a more perfect person to have as my wife and dearest friend.
I also use a bunch and a head system that works. TickTick has been my go to for high importance tasks/reminders, then 3 more apps for various mental purposes.
Same! The cross platform availability is what keeps me coming back.
I know many toxic masculinity guys, I think it’s true. Eww.
