- Comment on How do I get over fear of cooking? 3 days ago:
What can you do to mitigate that fear? You obviously know there’s some irrationality to it, but that doesn’t mean that it would be invalid to try and dampen some of those concerns ^^
How about getting a little fire extinguisher for your kitchen? I’m confident with cooking, but I still always have one on hand just in case!
You can also try and experiment with what exactly your boundaries are. Are you comfortable making something like a soup/stew? Does it bother you to bake something? That might be more than enough for the start, and once you get comfortable with that you might even naturally want to level up to scarier stuff.
When it comes to fears, the only way to lose is not to try. Because every instance of avoiding something you’re afraid of reinforces that fear by making you think that you successfully avoided a scary situation. Even if absolutely nothing would have happened otherwise.
Good luck!

They definitely are!! And just watching them waddle around and do their little hamster duties is the cutest 🥹

My parents kept getting me hamsters when I was a kid, it’s crazy how high maintenance they are if you actually want to keep them in good conditions :(
(not like they cared that I kept them well or were willing to provide me with the resources to do so tho) - Comment on Rap Video rule 3 weeks ago:

- Comment on Anon shares his dating preferences 1 month ago:
On an individual level? No idea, I have no experience with that lol
On a systemic level? The problem seems to be that people assume dating apps are only for hookups, so people who are looking for something serious avoid them. So the idea becomes true through self-validation. Breaking that cycle somehow would make everyone involved happier I think?
- Comment on Anon shares his dating preferences 1 month ago:
It might be a regional thing? I live in a Town known for its Technical University, so most of the people on Tinder are socially awkward and tech literate 18-25 y/os who either don’t like going to noisy places like bars, clubs etc. or just prefer texting first before committing time to a date (free time is kind of hard to make as a student here).
My own reason was more on the autistic side, as I do NOT recognize flirting unless it is specifically stated. So having an app where both parties can state “hey, we’re talking with romantic intentions here!!” was the best solution ever haha (I met my husband within 30mins of installing the app 🤷)

The only memory I have of my 3DS is being really into a game and playing for so long that I was really really hungry. Then I turned on the 3D slider to get motion sick and not hungry anymore to continue playing the game. Perfect problem solving skills here.

Do they still sell the Pipetting silly straws somewhere? I was in a Bio lab last week and they didn’t have any (but still told everyone to NOT pipette the E.Coli with their mouths) so I really want to try that now

Is this like, some weird parent “lesson” thing you’re actually supposed to fake? Like maybe you’re supposed to put some vinegar in the good jar to prevent mold growth, and the goal is to make your dumbass children behave?

My girl figured out how to get up to the cage around her heat bulb tonight. She got stuck up there for half an hour and then just gave up and fell. Truly scary creatures.

First time hearing about PDA. So being viscerally protective of one’s own autonomy, no matter how small or reasonable a demand is, is a problem? Damn dude
- Comment on Mentorship Monday - Discussions for career and learning! 5 months ago:
This thread randomly came across my timeline, so yeah why not!
Does anyone have any good resources on “general” cyber security information? Like total Cybersecurity 101 stuff, especially for mid to large sized company infrastructure? I’ve done a bit in school but I could totally use a refresher on all of the concepts.
Officially, I was put into the Role of “Cloud Security Engineer” at work. No one really knows what that means yet, the Roles were handed out last August. There are some AWS specific resources on that and they’re nice and all, but they kind of assume that general security knowledge already exists. I’m a bit in over my head I think lol
- Comment on I hate being 10. I wish I was 7 again 6 months ago:
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a Skibidi Toilet Video was uploaded. Skibidi Toilet was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning.
