Your proposed “simplification” kind of hinges on the idea that higher taxes are inherently bad.
I’d be fine with my taxes being raised to support schools, public transportation, affordable housing, social programs, and other things that support an overall healthier community. I don’t want my taxes raised to increase policing, subsidize luxury housing, or develop car-centric infrastructure.
Nobody wants to work (at serial killing) anymore
Also a millennial. Are younger people not learning to type in school?
A problem I’ve seen also is creating a niche community because you don’t want to just get the general content, but since there’s simple fewer users it’s just dead. And when someone else thinks about switching to Lemmy, they see a bunch of dead communities and are like “oh this site is dead.”
It’s annoying but on a newer site(/federation of sites) those niche communities need to be conversations that start in a more generalized community that enough people want to branch it off into it’s own thing. So there’s already core users, so it’s not DOA.
Unless they get banned
The problem with that is that any product that was good three years ago is far from guaranteed to be good now. Everything is getting shittier and less consistent. Any given product run manufactured in a different factory than the last run if there’s a lower bidder. I don’t trust reviews older than like six months at this point.
Do you know about Neocities?
I’m on Vyvanse and there is a lot more variability in effectiveness now that there are several different generics on the market. Something to be aware of if you get back on it, to tweak dosage or see if your insurance will cover brand if your Rx specifies brand as a medical necessity.
I have a corollary of this: time to get ready, drive somewhere, etc. only exists in 15 minute increments.
If I think something is a 5 minute drive, it’s because the time I hit every single green light and there wasn’t a single car. If I tell myself I need 15 minutes then I probably end up about 5 minutes early which is so much better than constantly being late. Same for like, “all I need to go l do is put my shoes on and grab my coat so I’m going to waste time doing something into right before I have to leave.” Nope. I need 15 minutes dedicated strictly to getting ready to walk out the door. Gives me time to find my keys, change my mind about what shoes I want to wear, decide I want to fill up my water bottle before I leave, the dozen little things I always forget are part of getting out the door. It usually doesn’t take 15 minutes, so it then gives me a bit of extra cushion for traveling to whatever’s next.
I used to be late to everything and now I’m early for everything and much less stressed.
Wake up early and exercise at least 30 min. Makes me feel actually tired at the end of the day so it’s easier to fall asleep. Exercising later on the day doesn’t work because it amps me up.
Also when cat’s eyes “glow in the dark” (reflect light) the typical color is yellowish-green like a lightning bug, but for blue-eyed cats it’s orange!
Look at those l o o o o o o o o o n g whiskers
This is the way. People suggest the silicone ones but I need to stack, gimme the rigid ones. The cover makes it even better.
This post just rocketed me into menopause
Where is the patch?
