I hate to tell you this, but today is Sunday

That neckline is begging for a statement necklace. Either a simple pendant, or a chunky necklace that comes to a point, so it’s less like an empty picture frame.

Yeah, my house is completely linux except for one windows machine. I need to be able to open other people’s Adobe files for editing, and that’s just not reliable outside of windows/mac.

But, if I was only working on my stuff and didn’t have to integrate into outside workflows, I wouldn’t be so adverse to switching to GIMP or Krita.

The store I usually go to has been unusually bad about stocking things lately, and it’s infuriating. I’m already having to drive 20min to the store (I hate driving), then I gotta navigate the mess, try to find things, overcome sticker shock at the price (seriously, $3/lb for fresh broccoli?!), only to find out that the cheap version is out of stock and I gotta revamp my whole plan on the fly because they’ve only got the fucking pasta that costs twice as much in stock.

I am about ready to start tipping shelves over.

Ultimate Frisbee Association

Yeah, it’s called “I was young and broke, and needed the money”.

Although, I really do recommend watching Zardoz at least once. It’s a trip.

There are places like that! One of the ones near me has salon vibes; you make an appointment, and they’ll help you pick out a color, and trim the lace for you, and style it, everything.

So random xD

It’s because the meme format comes from Japan. Red is a lucky color, and S is the highest grade you can get there. It’s similar to how they associate white with funerals, so brides wear red for luck instead.

In the US, jelly is pectin-thickened juice but jam leaves the fruit puree in it.

Edit: Jelly is also a thicker gel texture, and jam is still quite loose.

it seems odd to including gaming for Grandma

Why? Back in the 90s, my great-grandmother learned how to use the family computer (it ran DOS) because she wanted to play the Wheel of Fortune video game.

I was looking for some local jam to gift for christmas, but it was all from out of state. I wound up going to the orchard itself and found some apple brandy jam, and a hazelnut spread.

I went to the co-op the other day, and they don’t even stock mostly local any more.

My gran used cottage cheese instead of pudding for that.

Oh, I understand. I was trying to snarkily imply that the smug, autofellating, condescending attitude you mentioned was unfortunately endemic, to the point where it’s starting to feel like some people are secretly jorking it while telling newbs they suck. I think it’s a huge reason why people feel like FOSS isn’t for them.

I mean, #6 is accurate for me. I don’t have a humiliation fetish, so I’d rather pay people to tell me what I’m doing wrong instead of braving the barrage of belittlement that comes from asking for crowdsourced support.

We didn’t call them influencers, but people like Glenn Beck and Billy Graham were absolutely influencers. My parents whole church hung on their every word, so you really can’t say everybody knew to ignore it either lol.

Nah, back then you bought a microphone and broadcast your conspiracies via Citizen Band radio.

The first? Wasn’t LOIC open souce?

That is clearly a crystal with a ring of facets around the middle
