I'm asexual and aromantic so those parts just don't do anything in my head. I often find people's romantic woes very confusing as the option of "just leave them" seems very simple to me!

I do experience a lot of love for my friends though and make friends easily so I'm in no way lonely or pining.

As someone who is an environmentalist and works in the bus industry this really heartens me. Public transit really needs to step up it's game in response to climate change and I'm excited for that.

Generally I just Google the theme I want with the word "battlemap" and tell Google to only give me high resolution results.

I'm just starting to get into aquariums. Had one as a kid and now that I've got my own place I can do the naturalistic planted tank(s) of my dreams! Got the substrate and hardscape sorted yesterday, going back to the shop for plants today!

First tank is only 27L but a friend gave me a 65L one that is going to be epic!

I've been using ViewTube specifically because it was easier to set up. Although it also fails to play videos occasionally

For me learning I was aroace was hugely freeing, realising I could just opt out of the whole dating mess

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

Much better than expect. This has been the first year where we've had someone outside of our immediate family join us (my brother's girlfriend) and it's been very pleasant.

Going to start working my way through the Christmas ales I've been saving now!

Working my way through Anne McCaffrey's Pern novels again. Read them first as a child and it's lovely being back in that world again

In fairness, games are still something I'm willing to pay for and books. I think probably because Kindle and Steam are better user experiences than pirating those.

I used to have a moral objection to piracy, I thought that if a piece of media is good enough that I enjoy it then the people that made it deserve to be paid for their work.

I'm increasingly of the opinion that even if I do pay for something there is no guarantee that the people that worked on it will get their fair share and paying for media is increasingly a worse user experience than piracy.

 

Is there a way to sort comments? They appear newest to oldest by default and I can't see an obvious way to change that.
