It would probably take a lot of work to make like a wizard for low tech people to use for jailbreaking, right? A relative has brain damage and used to be tech savvy but now gets uneasy about things like that. I could jailbreak it for her, specifically, but I keep thinking about people in her situation who were early adopters of ebooks and would love to keep using the same device but can’t do steps like that anymore.

Sorry I asked this on your helpful comment! It just made me think of that kindle using relative. I second using that wiki and removing drm from all your books.

online glasses shops will sometimes have a “shop by face shape” section. I’ve used zenni’s and it was fine.

https://www.zennioptical.com/b/glasses-for-oval-face I’m not the best for recs here since I’ve only used this site ever and got my frames from the eye doctor and lenscrafters before that.

If you have an oval face:

The answer, to them, of course isn’t stop being horrible. Gotta figure out how to stop the biggest number of people from voting.

One of my favorite tumblr memes. Sometimes, though, it gets posted after like a picture of a sexy dragon and it’s like …nah. Sexy dragon poster was posting dragon pics before and during the ban, and will continue until the heat death of the universe.

This study I linked is pretty interesting, with how it goes over the different possibilities that have been studied. More useful than any random guess I throw out there. The bit in the original article where they said many younger patients lack common risk factors threw me for a loop when I was mentally already theorizing.

No one knows what’s causing the rise in cases in younger adults. But Georgetown’s Marshall said many young patients lack common risk factors. He wonders if changes in young people’s gut bacteria — the microbiome — might play a role.

Still no real answer to this question, then. The article lists risk factors but the younger people don’t necessarily have them. Increasing exercise if you’re sedentary might help. Speculation on my part feels wrong when people who have studied this for years are still speculating, themselves.

Were there boobs in pic 15 or something?

TBH I feel like maybe the wall of teen idols with a crucifix above them all tells a story I am not sure I want to hear.

But…having seen a lot of generic greige walls in my day, I admire something that’s immediately so ugly to my eyes. Genuinely.

I guess it depends on how much effort goes into it, but odds are it’d be an easy cash grab so i assume it’d be way worse and also inherently obnoxious.

That came out of nowhere after a bunch of already known but reasonable advice. Was it written by AI and not checked for misinformation, or is it just spreading the cell phone radiation misinfo in an organic, human way, I wonder?

It does seem like the kind of situation, with a lot of money flying around, that would attract scams

She looks normal. Rightwing people are so weird.

I thought he was pocketing it

It must have sucked for your dad but part of me is happy that those sitcoms didn’t entirely lie to me.

I remember I felt I missed something because my mom explained the specifics of menstruation to me and school went into more detail about sex and reproduction. Despite what sitcoms were telling me, no one ever sat me down and said anything about birds or bees. I guess I hoped there was a weird pre-written speech parents awkwardly tried to recall when their kids got to a certain age.

It’s not ideal, but keeping food on the table, a roof over your head, and light/heat running are going to be bigger priorities than worrying about a tomorrow that might not come, anyway.

Feel like I’ve seen this same thing proven 100 different ways and there’s still such a strong desire for the BMI = health thing to be useful individually.

You know, before this current time, I was naive about the depth of hatred I was capable of feeling. She’s already been attacked multiple times because of the kind of rhetoric he’s spreading here. Like, I understand why they do it.

LBJ:

“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”

I get it, but I despise them for it, still.

Well, since she’s healthy, is she the type that bruminates? I feel like I’m doing a “no stupid answers” thing because I’ve only had leopard geckos and anoles, so I should leave the answers to people who have had turtles, lol

How does she look? Cloudy eyes? Weird smell?
