I keep seeing data showing that a huge share of people around 30 can’t afford their own home anymore, not just in the US, but in parts of the EU as well. It seems like homeownership at that age used to be normal, or at least achievable, but now it feels almost out of reach for an entire generation. ... read full post
I personally feel its the best medium for comedy. I have plenty of comics I really like as well.
Thinking about switching from MEGA to SeaFile, but they don't show how many space I have left on the free profile, and I kinda found this suspicious.
Diabetes runs in my family. Almost everyone on my dad's side of the family has/had it and many of them suffered quite a lot under it. My dad was diagnosed when he was 44 (he's 75-now and needs insulin shots multiple times a day) and my brother, who is gonna be 40 next year, was diagnosed earlier this year or last year (not sure if he's insulin dependent or not). I just turned 41 this September and have been riding the "high glucose/pre-diabetic" test results high-wire for the last decade or so. I used to be much more active (pre-COVID) and ate better in the past, but as I get on in my years, I am worried that this is going to become an inevitability even if I were to resume my previous exercise and nutrition regiments. ... read full post

What is the thought in your head that makes your eyes wide open and bloodshot? The thought that constantly echoes in your head, but you cannot shake off.

When it has been demonstrated over and over again, how little they think of anyone beneath them.
My nihilist take of the day: Maybe sometimes its just for the best to do nothing, you can not fix all of the worlds issues yourself after all. Maybe spend your attention on something less important no one really cares about.
Rate your nihilism at a scale X out of 10. For me it is perhaps a 6
So. I like walking with a staff but I also like having multiple things in one. That got me thinking I would kinda like a light weight umbrella on my staff. Combined with the little end caps that allow it to stand on its own it seems like it could be pretty useful. Even better if it had a metal capped spike at the bottom.
Mine has always been those who can't make up their mind whether they want to bother with you or not. Like I have someone who, what felt like was pulling teeth almost, to confess whether they were interested in me or not. The best they could say was "I didn't say I am but I also didn't say I'm not either". Like what the hell kind of response is that? ... read full post
For me, they are people from an online community. We know eachother since 1-2 decades and they know some things about me that even my own mother doesn't know. They even unknowingly saved my life when i was on the nearly suicidal during COVID, simply by responding to my cry for help. Sometimes, we get at each other's nerves, but we still close friends nevertheless.
I wanted to do an school essay on her, but I can't find any trustable fonts on her. Wikipedia doesn't has much fonts being citated, and Hamtaro Wiki too.

I hope folks read more than just the title. So im watching a show with a gun exchange and the person has to reload and you can see they are nervous to get the new magazine in so they can fire again and it made me think. Do any guns have two magazine where you can either manually switch to the other magazine or maybe automatically do it when the first one is empty. With the idea that if you need to fire while in the middle of changing out the empty magazine you could. I feel like this seem obvious enough that someone must have tried it. I mean considering the crazy gun things I have seen. Since im not aware of anything I figure if it has been done it had an issue or was just not useful enough to make worth it. So for the folks that are really into guns, especially wierd protoype ones. Has there every been anything like this? ... read full post
Try to keep it practical (like something that would be fairly doable, you just havent gotten around to it...yet)
There are apps that you can input text into and they can replace the characters in each word incrementally to help learn them. Wanna get into that
