A soul eater trying to explain how what they are doing isn’t really any different from the humans hunting and eating other animals.

I know at least Firefox and Signal do the same. I don’t see why it should be changed, since pinching and double tapping are also supported. Although, the zoom on double tap is indeed way too strong.

I’ve been carrying a lute I found in a cave for weeks now, still haven’t found out who it belongs to, or to what quest. I refuse to look it up though, I’ll search the entire Skyrim, if that’s what it takes.

The moment you get rid of the phone, you start turning into a sheep? Better hold onto mine then, I suppose.

Not happy, just relieved. The duck has been dining on human flesh all morning.

Always remember to return your shopping cart after using it to move the bodies.

The annoying part seems to be that every now and then life still manages to find a way to make me invested in and stressed over something.

Why, it was just yesterday when I… oh, come to think of it, that was nearly a decade ago. Huh.

Love forests! Apart from the mosquitoes…

I suppose I still do it in some sense. If I have a lot of muscle tension built up or am otherwise starting to get a headache/migraine. I just lie down in bed, and focus on breathing until my body enters that sleep state where it completely relaxes and doesn’t respond to my commands. Like a nice nap, but without actually falling asleep (much faster, no grogginess). Or like sleep paralysis, but without the demons. ;D

I also tried meditation to focus on the subconscious stream of thoughts, which was extremely fascinating. But I had to stop after a week or so since I started to become aware of it even when not meditating, which felt like someone constantly whispering in my ears and it was quite maddening. I would still recommend giving it a try though. Becoming aware of some subconscious thought chains/loops, especially the negative ones, and learning to cut them short had a huge impact on my mental well-being.

My cat: “You are a heated bed for me to nap on. If you even think about getting up, I will murder you.”

2h after sunset, eh? In summer when the sun doesn’t set, all my negative thoughts shall be valid! Woooo! (that’s actually some good advice you’re giving though)

One cool thing about remembering dreams you’ve had is that some stories might turn into storylines. For the past few years there has been a dream story going on in my sleep. Every now and then randomly there’s another dream that either continues or relates to that story. It’s pretty fun, like following an interesting TV show and waiting for new episodes!

I have dreams every single night, and remember at least one of them once I wake up. Always have. Only exceptions are when I’m extremely tired or when I drink chamomile tea before bed. Found out about the latter last summer, and it admittedly kind of freaked me out; not having/remembering dreams is just… weird.

In general and if you don’t know the person you’re making the recommendation to, agreed. But I know several people I’d definitely recommend (and have recommended) Arch to as the first distro. Even just the installation process is so educational, it’s a worthy starting point, after some general youtube videos perhaps. If someone just wants to take Linux for a quick test drive, Arch definitely isn’t the way to go.

Although, I’ll admit I’m not sure how to describe the type of people I’d recommend it to. If their interest is less practical, and more theoretical. Or if they get really into their hobbies and like to tinker and poke at things to see what happens. Or if they just have an endless curiosity and need to understand. Surprisingly many people I know fall into these categories.

That was pretty much me when I first decided to try installing Arch… at 2am.

This whole “mixed reality experience” thing has me curious: do any of you just add imaginary images to your surroundings in your mind? Just by visualizing?

For example, I have several paintings on my walls that aren’t real, but look to me as if they were. I switch them up depending on mood, or just turn them off. Or just basic stuff like having words and numbers floating in front of me as an aid when doing math or planning?

Ah continuity, I like it!

I did always find those bird enthusiasts strange. As a side note, I wonder if there’s a conspiracy theory among birds about how humans are actually government surveillance drones…

I just browse things for fun, mostly. I rarely have anything important to add, so I rarely even comment.

I did try making a few memes, but I don’t really have ideas for general memes. I only make memes for specific friends about some very specific thing they or I said or did, and those don’t really fit in here.
