I was just listening to this today! It's really good!
They'll tell you at the beginning to go back and listen to the introductory episode, and if you're someone like me that doesn't have a strong background in Chinese history, I agree that it's really worth doing, since they give kind of a high-level overview of the whole thing, and then this series really dives in deep.
It's just yummy, and the flavor is way more intense. I brew and drink some pretty fancy coffees sometimes, but even still I don't really care about the differences between anything above mid-tier, so that's where I usually live. It's just nice to have something to sip on that hurts ya back, ya know?
Though admittedly, I'll sometimes go for a brown sugar shaken espresso monstrosity, but those are on pretty rare occasions, and usually when I'm already making one for my spouse anyways.
Snap always seems to me like a red flag for poly/enm. Like, it usually seems like people insisting on that are often the ones looking for plausible deniability about their conversations and activities.
Like I guess if you're sending a lot of lewds, they are slightly less likely to be sitting in the storage of someone else's phone, but if you don't trust the person you're sending it to to keep it safe, then you better not care what happens with it after you send it anyways.
Beyond the disappearing thing, the rest if it kinda sucks to use. The only really good thing it has going for it is a super robust camera filter marketplace. They've got really good face swapping and image manipulation filters, and that shit is genuinely fun to use. I really wish they would just release the camera part on its own, with no connection to anyone else at all. But ofc that's jot their business so they won't.
Very yes! UTC-5 here. Got kids though so not a ton of availability, but this is something I'll make some room for.
Usually play edh and draft, but down for whatever.
Spelltable is is my usually haunt, and it's pretty cool for anyone that wants to do some paper. You can use OBS with something like Moxfield or similar to play webcam without having any paper. Maybe not so good for opsec I guess, but certainly fun.
Edit for *OBS.

Nominative determinism for cowardly shit-libs.
Yeah it was fine. A little unwieldy to eat what with the big pile of stuff on top, and the base is pretty fragile and falls apart easily, but decent flavor.
Yeah they definitely get there. I miss their first album vibes fr though. "Tesselate" was a great ode to threesomes (well love triangles, at least) , and "Fitzpleasure" was just all horny, all day.
I feel like The Dream is the closest they've gotten back to that sound since then, but they went a little far with it and didn't have many catchy or groovy tracks, imo. Any recommendations for bands/albums with similar vibes to An Awesome Wave?
My uniform! For outside of the house at least. Jammy shorts for inside time.
God this game looks so good. It's on my shortlist for sure.
Yes, that does sound amazing. Not many things chili crisps don't make better!
I could have written this exact post, down to most of the same numbers lol.
If you think you'll actually like management (which probably means a lot more meetings, reviewing other people's work and time sheets, and making high-level decisions instead of actually doing any of the work involved) (and also means taking the flak for any screw-ups your subordinates make, trying to implement new procedures in a desperate attempt to make things better but your underlings hate the changes and your bosses are never as impressed as you thought they'd be, and watching other people excel and grow and learn new things doing the stuff you probably got into your industry to do in the first place), then by all means go for it.
I fell for this trap a few times. I was desperate for the pay increase at the time, which go figure never feels like as much as it looked like on paper, but I still needed it anyways.
These days, I keep it very explicit with my bosses that I have no interest whatsoever in doing those roles any more. It might make me a slightly less attractive employee, and it might hamper my career growth to some extent, but it means I get to actually do the thing I've always wanted to do every single day, instead of getting sucked into a bullshit-conjuration position vaguely adjacent to that thing, and I am grateful every day for that.
