What else did you think they meant by “Knobby” tires

Sure the Geospatial Commons is great functionally, but I’m still disappointed they renamed it from the “Data Deli”

I think generally pretty dense and pretty smooth. So it doesn’t bleed through, and enough roughness for some resistance but not enough that you snag it with the nib. I’ve generally found most notebooks bleed through a bit, but whatever pen goes brrrrr

Haha. We must’ve gotten the same “ADHD BRAIN” update patch - I just did similar! I went with A5 40pg saddle stitch Kraft cover notebooks in a variety of colors, hole punched to fit in 1.25in, 6-ring binders. I went for dot grid for all of my schematic needs! And also someone from Hexbear got me into fountain pens a few months ago… I love them though lol I’ve tried Pilot Kakuno to start, and then Lamy Safari. Safari are really nice. Love all the ink colors too- my currently favorite is purple

 

How could you not?

 

For example, look at how optimal this one is

Pretty fucked up given the regional context, no?

Not sure what the others are talking about. This looks like a normal bike to me as well? Maybe it’s different in their respective regions?

Cw- talks of excessive drinking and suicidal ideation dubois-dance tequila-sunset

https://.clevelandclinic.org/emotional-hangover-why-alcohol-can-give-you-anxiety

spoiler___ Alcohol is a depressant and messes with your serotonin and causes a laundry list of related issues. By the time you’ve aged, your body is unable to process this literal poison as effectively as when you were younger. When you’re coming up from a hangover it is intensely important to remember that it amplifies thoughts associated what that depressant classification- suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety- and worsens how essentially every one of your major organ systems function.

I used to be a problem drinker-still am given the opportunity-in order to cope with anxiety/de-mask in social situations/de-stress. I’ve heard it described as paying for tonight’s fun with tomorrow’s happiness. For me, it’s been essential to understand why I’m drinking, and in addition to regular water drinking, take regular mental check-ins. When I drink a pint or two with friends it’s usually as a social lubricant. When I stay at the bar after for another 8 by myself-there’s usually something else going on.

Frankly it’s literal self-harm. It’s only legal because capitalists use it to exploit the proletariat to great effect.

That said too, 4 pints in a night now give me the equivalent hangover that a case would- aka the enshittification of my liver- and yes it will happen to young folks too- faster than you think. I’ve heard 100% agave tequila doesn’t have the same depressant effect. Idk if it’s true, but if I wanna get blasted that’s usually my drink of choice.

I try to stick to thc edibles now when I want a buzz- in a legal state so unfortunately isn’t the case for everyone.

Final moralizing point- take care of yourself, friend. Treat yourself like you would a dear friend. Drink water, talk about what’s bothering you, and pace yourself. We live in a hell world, and can only persist together. The capitalists want you to drink yourself to death-don’t give them that pleasure.

 

I’ve converted the bulk of the lawn on my lot back to prairie/woodland opening, and I feel like everyone is much more chill. I now have wasps, yellowjackets, and of course bees amicably buzzing around, in addition to the WASPs telling me how much they like it.
