Yeah I'm generally not a cat person but that's a pretty rad cat.

Yeah I'm in the process of switching my OTP stuff to keepassxc. Better hurry that up.

How in the fuck does this not say "two men one truck". Opportunity missed.

Yeah I do this to break my inertia.

"I'm not actually going to do any work, just clear my desk, then 5 minutes youtube"

"I'm not actually going to do any work, I'm just going to get my books / laptop out, then do whatever thing for 5 minutes"

... and so on ...

You need practice at concentrating on your work.

In the same way you'd work out to build muscle strength, your mind needs regular training to stay in shape.

Start with sensible, achievable goals and improve over time.

How long did you take the meds for? How long ago did you stop?

I don't have that option. Android 13 on Samsung galaxy.

Maybe it means something like "allow this app to be terminated by power manager"

I've been a volunteer treasurer for several medium sized non-profits.

You should have a think about what sort of charity resonates with you. Like education support, homelessness, legal support, drug rehabilitation, et cetera.

Then call a few in your area and tell them you're considering a bequest, and would like to understand some more about their organisation and how the money is used. 1

In places with "hard" water (lots of calcium) you tend to get a calcium plaque in the pan after several years. It will absorb any iron in the water and turn brown.

It's pretty much a rock growing on the porcelain. A brush won't move it.

Folded is the wrong word. Not load bearing signs be better.

That's exactly what it is. Most people are hard wired to do this automatically.

God I feel you so hard my guy.

I'm only a few years older than you and have ischaemic cv disease (blocked arteries). It's a common problem in people twice my age. I thought I ate well and exercised regularly but it turns out that stuff doesn't help that much if you lost the genetic lottery like me.

I had a heart attack this year, while my partner was pregnant with our first children. Yes 2x kids. They were born a few months ago.

IDK if I have 2 years or 20 years to do my best for them... but fuck it's a bitter pill.

I absolutely get the dread / fear / anger.

Every time I have a new blood test that shows I'm more fucked than I hoped it just... hurts.
