i haven’t had a microwave since i moved out of my parent’s place. figured id eventually get one when i felt like i needed it, but that still hasn’t happened 5+yrs later

start searching the platform for things you’re interested in and follow people with interesting related posts. after a while you’ve got an actual personal feed

lmfao 100mbps is pretty decent in Canada too.

ive been off facebook for quite a while now but when i was still on it, id unfollowed just about any real-life bullshit and was exclusively engaging in private groups featured around special interests. i ended up doing the same with reddit & a private sub before leaving, i enjoy recognizing usernames.

all this to say: agreed

my heart hurts for your self-esteem, brother

BoJack Horseman, too many times to count by now

ah i was struggling to come up with an answer, but it’s probably still WoW for me too. solidarity, friend

ideally id be using signal but hardly anyone is willing to use it because most people don’t care. between sms & something owned by meta, for example, im not entirely sure which is less bad

ive had this discussion with a few different people actually, and at least from where im standing, it does seem like sms is making a comeback. i have to admit i prefer it when it comes to messaging people i know irl

hey dude it’s been ruining my night/morning too. you’re not alone at least

So far just about everything here has that feel to it
