The Truman Show

Qobuz is sound quality and being able to buy music without DRM, not discovery. I use my friends to find music for me, instead. It’s a good service.

Jockstraps because same reason

Reddit remains one of the only reliable sources of safety advice, reporting, and guides on drugs. Lots of [deleted] nowadays. This is particularly concerning in aspects beyond this as well. Obscure software issues? Buying recommendations? Everyone always flocked to Reddit, and now it’s gone.

A reminder to never put all your eggs in one basket.

Quite surprised to see Ukraine doesn’t have its own instance

I’ve been open to trying a trackball, and I definitely like the fact that it’s stationary. For the purpose of gaming, the trackball does have a chance at replacing a mouse for me. I prefer thumb flicks, like on controllers, compared to mouse movement.

I’ve been fortunate enough to use a trackpad on macOS, which works very well for a wide variety of reasons. It’s not for gaming, though, unless you want to pull a Wii and treat the trackpad as its own controller, with gimmicks.

Why would it be messy, the chips enter my mouth anyway, I’m just using the bag itself to hold them

You fool! I eat chips by pushing the bottom of the bag, then grabbing one with my mouth. No utensils required.

Auto > Light/Dark mode

Smoking joints is now illegal. Everyone must use a battery-free vaporiser.

Car bad.

YYYY/MM/DD or riot. 24H time or public execution.

I use Arch btw

Pirate everything.

Pink lemonade is better than regular.

Ramen is made with the flavour packet first, then boiling the noodles in the already-made broth.

The confirm button on a controller goes on the right. Cancel is bottom. Nintendo layout supremacy, fuck you.

You will pet every dog you see without hesitation, even if they growl at you. The tax must be paid.

Trackpad > Mouse

Caffeine is now illegal. Force yourself to stay awake and make it everyone else’s problem for enforcing stupid work hours.

Ziti’s no-nonsense. Dead simple, and great.

The manufacturer’s site.

I still use CRTs on occasion.

Literally this

You can’t change the world if you don’t try at all. What a braindead take…

I mean, what constitutes a drug is kind of hazy, but I’d say damiana. It’s a herb from the arid south of the U.S., and is brewed into non-alcoholic tonics, teas, and it’s also a pleasant smoke. Great alternative to both cannabis and tobacco, and it’s a solid tea.

The flowers are also cute.

It’s easy to not fall into dependence if you have self restraint. I put immense effort into research, to make sure my doses are safe, infrequent enough per drug, and I’m doing it for a good reason (enjoyment is a reason, as long as I have other hobbies). I hope to one day be a major advocate in drug safety, and create guidelines for responsible use. It’s no different than drinking safely, but with different things.

I use drugs without a dependence despite my history.

After a lifetime of every aspect of my being getting invalidated, and my feelings torn to shreds, I should be dead.

But I’m not. I’m even relatively sane.

That’s despite my ARFID and germophobia being fake, my plurality and therianhood being delusion and conspiracy theory, and my queerhood and political standing just a lack of experience in the real world. I am fake, according to everyone. I don’t know how I ended up in an alt-right family, and meeting countless alt-right vermin online, but here we are.

I’m alive, and even happy and healthy, and I still deal with this shit on a daily basis. It nags at the back of my mind, but I’ve become resistant to it, because of my DIY psychedelic therapy sessions (that are making me delusional, apparently).

You can do what I do, and use an app with an algorithm, then find those songs elsewhere through a service of choice. I personally use Deezer for discovery, then buy on Qobuz. From there, I can just use Qobuz, or move the files elsewhere.

Apple Music/iTunes is the only thing somewhat close, and was my old preference. iTunes DRM is practically non-existent, and Apple Music syncs with iTunes purchases (even if a song is on iTunes only), with an algorithm on top.

I’ve moved songs to local storage from iTunes in recent memory. It’s literally just easily convertible files that all of my software and hardware can already play. Of course Apple Music is DRM, though, it’s streaming.
