Fandom engages in a lot of anti-user and anti-creator practices. There are mirrors to it that privacy and content respecting, particularly Antifandom and BreezeWiki. If you are interested in making the switch, there are plugins that will automatically redirect you away from Fandom towards one of these mirrors.

A powerful statement in therapy that still hits me when I think about it. "You don't stop being someone's child." (I'll leave it without context, the context would be too painful and personal, so read that however you want.)

Had a tamer but similar hill near my home growing up. Loved speeding down. It ended in a lot filled with gravel. Fortunately the day I spun out on the gravel lot was coming from a different, slower direction. Developed an extremely bad case of road rash all over one leg. When I realized what might have happened if I'd been taking the hill instead, that I probably would have broken my legs or worse, I stopped going down that hill. Realization of mortality can be like a bucket of ice water sometimes.

I got all the way to the last level once... but never beat it. The lava level man.

Omelettes. So versatile. So good. Of all the combos I love bacon and mushrooms in my american cheese omelettes best of all.

Pancakes are a close second.

First one is a screencap from Overly Sarcastic Productions. I sadly don't remember where the second one came from.

I've been enjoying Tidal after switching.

Is anyone else completely unable to register on chexsystems? Usually when this happens I can't tell if it's because of my privacy settings or a legitimate fuckup on the server's end.

I've been complimented on my voice before, and those aren't weird compliments. But delivery is important. I had a coworker tell me, "Your voice is great!" And of course I'm thankful. But then deadpan, she goes, "You should do ASMR so I can listen to it."

Now that was a weird compliment.

 

Hello! I have a very low mileage, but older car (about 33k miles and it's a 2011 Chevy Cruze.) I have no real interest in purchasing a new car but I do kind of wish I had some of the bells and whistles of a newer car. We have an excellent local place who can do installations of electronics in cars; I've gotten a remote starter with them on my last car and it worked great.

Do you guys recommend after market upgrades in my situation at all? If so what kinds of things you would recommend (in general or brands of things.) If nothing else I really want another remote starter for the winter, but it's been so long since the last one I had, I don't know how different they are. (My old one had a fob!)

In terms of usage, I mostly just use my car to drive to appointments and get groceries, hence why the mileage is so low.
