PeepinGoodArgs,

My 1060-3gb is hanging on by a thread lol.

PeepinGoodArgs,

What’s true of the lesser must be true of the greater

PeepinGoodArgs,

How come I can see the documents on Kbin but not on my home instance, Reddthat? I even enabled show bot accounts…still nothing though.

PeepinGoodArgs,

Since Morton is out, people are buying the store brand in droves, too!

PeepinGoodArgs,

I haven’t been able to find it in 2+ months in the southwest.;

PeepinGoodArgs,

We found some mineral salt. I used it today, actually. It was extremely salty. I had to use less than I normal would, and I can see it being easy to over-salt something.

Ugh. I miss Morton’s Kosher Salt lol. If this keeps up, I’ll just order Diamond Crystal from Amazon.

PeepinGoodArgs,

The esteemed privilege of potentially dying in the new American hellscape! You must envy me so much!

Really, it’s what apathy about my countrymen and women looks like. I really think we hate each other. While many on the left continue to prove me wrong to this very moment, and I see them, I honestly do not think they’ll win in the end.

PeepinGoodArgs,

It also opens up the spread of malaria as climate change makes the world more hospitable for mosquitoes

“It’s community,” a students said toward the end of class one day. “That’s the thing straight men are really missing.”

I 100% agree with this.

What straight men could learn from queer men – aside from a host of stylistic, hygienic and sex tips – is to have a greater zeal and lust for life.

Not so much with this. I love life. Still, it’d be nice to have friends to turn to.

PeepinGoodArgs,

I remember when I was younger and I was at basketball practice. I was nervous pretty frequently, and so I would laugh to diffuse the tension within myself. My dad was there supervising or being an assistant coach or something. Idk. But—and I remember this very clearly—the coach told me to stop smiling because “it makes you look weak.” I looked to my dad for some sort of support and he just shrugged. Fortunately, I didn’t internalize that message.

But I always remember that moment as someone trying to crush some of the boyish joy I had in life. Like, yeah, I was nervous, and laughter seemed like a perfectly reasonable solution. But my father and the coach had grown up in a very, very different environment where moments of happiness weren’t nearly as abundant as they were in my life.

For reference, my father grew up in Atlanta, GA during the Civil Rights Era as an African American. So, it definitely wasn’t all snips, snails, and puppy-dog tails. My coach (also an African American and about my dad’s age) and my father’s emotional self-mutilation was an act of survival. I get that.

But still, looking back, it sucks a lot that they reinforced that sense of danger they’d internalized over the course of their lives and tried to pass it on to me. What sucks even more is that, while I didn’t internalize that particular patriarchal message, I did internalize others.

I just want to be happy and feel safe. Why is that so much to ask?

PeepinGoodArgs,

Pictures. Since phones got rid of the micro sd card slots, I now use a flash drive and save stuff to it.

e-reader or tablet for reading academic paper

I’m reading a lot papers after I switched positions in my job. I felt reading on my display annoying. I can’t draw on the PDF easily nor able to read while I code (not without switching windows). And printing papers is annoying too. I can’t search and the physical paper pile up quickly....

PeepinGoodArgs,

LiquidText is cool af but I hated the UI. Maybe it’s become better in the last few months.

PeepinGoodArgs,

App? Uh…idk about app, per se.

Perplexity.ai is a search engine, it’s like Google on steroids. I’m researching online graduate programs, and I like how I can ask for tables to compare different programs side by side easily. With Google, I’d have to manually create that.

Perplexity.ai has an app, if that counts…
