If you want to add personality then start buying stuff or collecting things from where you enjoy going.

UpstairsOne wall is dedicated to pictures of family. Son’s bedroom is tractor themed and has one wall in John Deere green, another wall has a large laser cut tractor cling on it. Daughter’s bedroom is horse themed with a mural that a friend’s daughter painted, opposite wall is purple. Laundry room is clothing themed, kidding ;). Master bedroom and bath is beach themed with pictures from Hawaii and our favorite OBX beach and bed wall is teal. Loft is music themed with a piano and flute + things.

Main FloorOther walls in the house have bamboo cutting boards of the states we have family in, our state flag on wood, a large picture of our a bunch of doors in our hometown that our friend took and we framed, flags hanging vertically in my office (it has high ceilings), a wood laser cutting of my wife’s profession, a painting my father made in our dining room. Opposite wall has a massive picture of one of our favorite places . Entryway has a 4 shelf unit that has beer steins, Lladro sculptures, a piece of wood from the log home my father in law built (and we helped with), a large heart shaped price of granite rock from a friend’s property in the Rockies, lots of Tinkerbell stuff (wife’s mother loved her), lots of Hawaiian themed things (we love Kauai).

BasementMovie themed. Wife’s craft room is Harry Potter themed. Theater has movie posters and a large Disney castle picture over the couch. We also have a movie popcorn maker on an electric fireplace which is a lot of fun. Son’s bedroom is space themed since he loves that.

All of that took us ~20 years to collect. My wife looks at Pinterest and other places for ideas others have done and then incorporates what we like. Don’t worry about what other people will think of what you do. They want to see your personality, that’s the fun part!

The first word.

I mean topic as in what happened.

There are a few sites that do the same thing but I find All Sides to be a very quick way to know how biased a news topic is and what neutral really is.

Besides what’s already been said, pictures of family and friends is something he can’t buy.

I know why, he’s biased as hell and promotes the techbro culture.

Oct: 1.8 TB Nov: 1.8 TB Guess we’re consistent.

This is over 500/500 fiber and a family of 5. We could go up to 10Gb but we wouldn’t see more use out of even 1000/1000 so why pay more?

It’s on for Messaging apps, email, and specific apps I with want or need notifications for. I don’t have it on for any social media apps, I check those on my own time when I please. All sounds are off thanks to my Apple Watch that vibrates.

Maybe. Doesn’t explain why I can shake their bowls and they go, “oh it’s full again!” and start eating. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I never bought that argument. They squeeze their bodies through holes that only their face just fits into regularly. That would also hurt but they do it.

No, “where the hell did you get that!?”

This only real boycotts I’ve got honestly is Reddit and X. Spez handled it about as well as Elon does his business. They’re both awful humans.

This is such an immature take.

Microsoft basically owns the enterprise world because they simply do Enterprise and business better than anyone else.

Apple sells appliances. They’re great for people who don’t have time to babysit a Linux distro.

Propofol is a hell of a drug. It’s impossible to not say something since your prefrontal cortex is basically still off.

My wife is an RN for the place I had a procedure done and I came out of it asking the anesthesiologist how much she made and telling her my wife was thinking of becoming a nurse anesthetist. The staff thought it was hilarious of course.

Analysis of ancient Scythian leather samples shows two were made from human skin (phys.org)

A multi-institutional team of anthropologists has discovered that two pieces of ancient Scythian leather excavated at sites in Ukraine were made from human skin. In their project, reported on the open-access site PLOS ONE, the group tested an account by the Greek historian Herodotus regarding certain behaviors of ancient...

Thank you for being transparent. This helps those of us who don’t know how to spool up our own instance figure out how much to donate. Much appreciated.

I was thinking the similar. It’s used in business because it works. Most likely some of the anti-work crowd spouting of crap they think they know about but in reality don’t.

This is a response better than I deserve. Well done and totally agree with all of your points, especially the being wrong bit.

Smartwatch. It’s very useful for triaging notifications (messages, email, phone calls, etc) and turning HomeKit devices on/off quickly or when my hands are full (Siri, open the garage door). Also extremely useful for fitness.

I just cut my intake in half at lunch and dinner. I find my body needs a decent breakfast with protein. Lunch can be whatever just cut in half and dinner needs to be a decent balance of protein, carbs/starch, and veggie. Oh and lots of water. I cut out the sugary drinks, took a month to wean me off but now I prefer no or low sugar drinks and feel a lot better.

I love the way they show you each headline and give you an idea of how bias they are. I’ll definitely be using this going forward. Thank you!

The last mosaic has the inscription:

VOTIS XXX MVLTIS ❧ XX BIS XX CVRANTE YACINTHO COMITE FABRICA AD SVMMVM PER DVCTA ES CVLMEN

Translation

For vows on the thirtieth anniversary of the rule of the emperor, and more (vows) for (another) twenty years, and twenty more years again. Under the care of Hyacinthos holding an office, building, to the highest summit, you were drawn.

Notes

Edit: I thought it was Constantine I, but it is more likely the emperor is Constantius II based on numismatic evidence. For comite, see L&S s.v. comes II.E.
