  Comparative illustration of women drying themselves versus men. The woman uses separate towels for bum, hair, and face, whereas the man comically uses one for everything, starting with his bum to genitals, to face.

  Additional advantage: using separate towels makes each one less wet, therefore they dry faster.

  Fair prices are fair, the existence of billionaires is not. Tax Gabe Newell and the rest of 'em too.

  Hm okay. I’ll check again in six months when Belgium isn’t a depressing film Noir scene straight from Max Payne 1 & 2.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to see this static when you close your eyes?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. I “see” it too but can unsee it quite easily. I think it’s more apparent in unlit environments.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interesting observation⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Indeed. I don’t understand what’s the big deal. It’s just a funny meme.

  Sex, drugs, and rock and roll.

  They’re so fat you can outrun the bullets they fire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why can't we have a static vintage web?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly tend to think that instead of using search engines where you already have to know what you’re looking for, it might be better to use something like lemmy where you can advertise what you made with a post in an appropriate community.

  Obviously both have their place, but POSSE is the magic sauce:
  “POSSE is an abbreviation for Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere, the practice of posting content on your own site first, then publishing copies or sharing links to third parties (like social media silos) with original post links to provide viewers a path to directly interacting with your content.” ―https://indieweb.org/POSSE

  “The need for discovery
  Nothing you do to try to make the web a better place matters if nobody can find what you did. There are a lot of precious websites out there that deserve an audience, but instead are languishing in obscurity.
  This makes alternative discovery mechanisms an urgent priority of the free and independent web, both document search as well as blog and RSS-feed discovery.”

  That analogy is spot on. Everyone know how light one feels after the first post-coffee morning dump.
