Yes!

My friend is going through chemo treatment, which is wrecking their tastebuds in various ways, and they told me after each infusion they can’t stand the “texture” of water for a few days. Thankfully, it’s also wrecking their cancer!

I have my phone browser defaulted to reader mode, and it really blows my mind how bad this stuff has gotten whenever I toggle it off. Most sites are straight up unreadable.

When I worked for a large company, they flew our software development team from Seattle to their financial HQ to kick off a project rebuilding their internal expensing software. The receptionist called security on our lead developer because she thought he was a homeless person who got into the building.

Thank you!
- Comment on Introverts Rock 1 month ago:
Again, I feel introversion is being convoluted with social anxiety. I’m totally fine with and even enjoy being around people, I just need a lot of alone time to recharge my battery. Though people see my confidence in social situations and never believe I’m introverted.

I’m sure not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’ve been getting a kick out of Anti Meme lately.

There was a mention of Trump “blowing Bubba” in the latest Epstein files release.
- Comment on How does one learn or start to manage thair life better? 2 months ago:
A little more context would be helpful, but in general, I think Atomic Habits and Digital Minimalism remain two of the best books in this general vein.
- Comment on F dieting! 3 months ago:
Whether a diet is vegan or not has literally nothing to do with how healthy it is.
- Comment on life purpose 3 months ago:
My biggest pro was my social life vastly improving after switching to WFH. As a naturally introverted person, I burned all my social energy at the office and nights/weekends went into hermit mode. Now I’m sitting on my charger all day while I work and actually have the energy to see my friends.
- Comment on What's a bad habit you use to have for a long time but finally fixed? 3 months ago:
Not taking care of myself. I’ve felt so much better and more confident (and practically reversed type 2 diabetes) since I’ve maintained a consistent strength training routine and eaten healthier.

Wow, somehow we’ve combined AI and boomer humor for a new low.

I should call her.
- Comment on What's the most offensive word I can use that isn't a slur? 3 months ago:
Not a word, but my favorite recent addition was when someone told me her husband, rather than flip people off in road rage situations, just looks at them and gives them a thumbs down gesture, and it makes them so much more mad. I’ve been doing it whenever I see Cybertrucks.

What OS? Totally fine over here.
- Comment on How do you introduce the Fediverse to other people? 4 months ago:
Yeah, I usually joke I’m too hipster for Reddit and use Lemmy when Reddit comes up, and nobody ever asks for more information. I feel like, at least in their current form, federated apps are too complicated/fussy for anyone who isn’t actively interested in moving away from centralized platforms.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 4 months ago:
I shave my head in the shower every couple of days. Trim my beard once a week.
- Comment on what can I do at my workplace during downtime? 4 months ago:
I have a Kindle and love it, but if you don’t want to go with Amazon, I think Kobos are a solid option! The current best models are the Kindle Colorsoft and the Kobo Libra Colour, but they both have cheaper models as well.
- Comment on what can I do at my workplace during downtime? 4 months ago:
I can’t recommend getting an e-reader more. It’s so much nicer than staring at a backlit screen for extended periods of time.
- Comment on thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned? 4 months ago:
As someone in this camp, this is very accurate. I’m simply very selective about the amount of fucks I give at work, and save them for my personal life. It makes me a better worker on top of having better work/life balance.

I’ll never be a dad, but I definitely inherited my dad’s sneeze.

If you have the ability to do this on your first day, it’s 100% not your fault.

I thought I was 37 before the gal I’m seeing learned my bday and told me I’m 38. Then I turned 39 a couple of months later, so I aged 3 years in a few months. It’s just a number, and gray facial hair looks great.
