It’s busy but it looks similar to how I’ve been wanting to set up my home screen for ages. I have the standard grid right now but I took a look at some widgets and I’m having a vision of a brighter future lol. Redoing my home screen will be my self-care activity this weekend haha
I feel like there are kinder ways to express your opinion than to say “ew” about something someone made for themselves…
Psychologist, work in schools. I feel like I’m slightly more tech-inclined than my peers but idk
I don’t care for debate so I’m just gonna share this tofu stir-fry recipe I like. I sub gochujang for the sambal oelek and skip the peanut garnish
Plant-based meat has been a thing for a hot minute so I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make
edit: for chicken nugget enjoyers, I like the morningstar farms equivalent. Pop in the toaster over/air fryer, coat in sweet & sour or orange sauce, put on a bed of rice, + sprinkle some sesame seeds on top. ooh that shit’s so good
Yup, this is the reason.
are you upset about the phrase “yuck my yum” or them trashing your food, period? I mean both are mildly infuriating to me but I’m curious
edit: added much-needed comma.
Also, I’ve only ever heard this in the context of food (hence the “yum”) but I see it’s also used for other things? Which is awful, because “yum” should absolutely never refer to anything other than food
I hate how awful yet ubiquitous it is. Depending on your demographic, not having it can mean you miss out on a lot of pop culture and sort of get left behind.
I’m probably in the like 2nd most targeted demographic, so all my friends are on TT and all the trending things related to our hobbies are on there. I constantly feel left out because I’m missing 99% of the content. And it’s hard because I want to have dumb conversations about pop culture and hobbies with my friends, but I refuse to download it. It makes me so sad. It’s very isolating
If I get bored, I drop it. Maybe I miss out on some gems that ‘get good after the 7th chapter’ or whatever, but I’m not fussed
Could be the first chapter, ¾ through the book, halfway through a series… If I’m bored I’m out lol
I’m a millennial-ish. I had a single mom and she was all-in on parenting. Although I’m not sure which part(s) of parenting you’re asking about specifically. Discipline? Instilling values?
I’m not great with math so please let me know if I’m understanding this right:
- Company has 100 employees
- All 100 employees quit
- Company gets 100 new employees as replacement
= 100% turnover rate
Then…
- Company has the 100 new employees
- 50 of the new employees quit
- Company gets 50 new employees as replacement
= 150% turnover rate
and so on?
how can you have a turnover rate over 100%?
Terrifying, thank you!
Ahh I see. Or don’t, actually lol. It’s just blank for me, not showing the [obj] symbol
I don’t see one at the end of their comment, but they have a cherry blossom at the end of their display name if that’s what you meant?
(not what you meant!)
Sort of tangentially related to this… Today I was telling my mom about something I bought and I mentioned the brand + a general description of the item. About an hour later, she showed me a screenshot of her Facebook feed with an ad for the exact brand and item even though she didn’t google it, etc. Makes me so uncomfortable. I’d feel a lot better if I knew specifically how they were getting the data so I could try to block it.
I get a little spike in the morning but it’s usually over in less than an hour. Then I get hit with task paralysis for the rest of the day, spiral when I go to bed, and if I’m lucky I’ll get tired enough to slip into a mildly dissociative hyperfocused state.
I also can’t do creative things. I have too many ideas, they don’t mesh, I get frustrated and give up. And nothing is ever just right. There’s always something to nitpick, something that needs to be changed. Writing is so hard. I have the thoughts, but I struggle to put them into words. When I do find the words, they never feel right. Sometimes it takes me an hour to write an email. It all just gets really frustrating sometimes.
It is absolutely a thing. Forgetfulness, absent-mindedness, short attention span, etc. are common symptoms of ADHD. The meds generally wear off at the end of the day, so by the time the next day rolls around, you’re back at baseline, which includes the forgetfulness.
ADHD can be incredibly debilitating and I think it’s something that most people don’t really grasp despite how well-known the disorder is.
the amount of land for cows is crazy. and the fact that more land goes to livestock feed than food we eat is interesting as well
