I love when I don't log on for a couple days and I can sit out the latest struggle session

There's this article going around on :reddit: about a yazidi woman rescued from Hamas and it's making me lose my mind. Hamas and Hezbollah literally fought ISIS. Hezbollah being a huge force against them. This is a new Nayirah testimony 100% and I'm losing my mind seeing it in real time, only reported on bottom rung news sites. They're saying it was a joint intelligence effort in the article. They're saying the guy was hamas-isis.
I'm so tired of this
I love wizards with guns so fuckin much. They've been grinding for years for mid views and subscribers. I think they're on the uptake now.
I think they're a spiritual successor of wkuk.
I knew a few folks who were on the depressed side and I didn't mean to lump them in. I saw a lot of it first hand and the behavior was different ime. Like the lazy kids were very "give me the answer" while the people having a seriously hard time were not pushy and sorta silently fell behind.
A lot of my friends didn't make it to graduation. It was really hard seeing it happen but they weren't in a headspace to accept help. A couple times a month there'd be a classmate who would just stop showing up.
10 years ago when I started college, I watched 100s of freshman lug their g*mer laptops into the lab for tutoring the night the intro CS class homework was due. They were too busy the rest of the week gaming to do the homework, so they began 4 hours before it was due and begged for help.
Most of them didn't make it to their sophomore year. I don't feel that bad, the work load was not that heavy, the tutors were there every day of the week. I had a really hard time grasping programming at first, so I was there daily. The homeworks were given a week ahead of time, the lecture notes spelled out 80% of the solution, and the tutors loved to help. The students just didn't want the help.
This conjures a similar feeling. idk maybe I'm being a dick.
I use it for work and I find it clunky and an overall mid messaging experience. It feels like groupme from 7 years ago. I know the "nothing to hide trope" is shit, but sometimes you actually are saying little of substance and you want a nice user experience day-to-day rather than sacrifice features and UX for a privacy boogieman.
I said theoretically.
But also what's worse, a colonizer or calling the cops on a colonizer?
They never were and never advertised as such. There's secret chat's that only work from the originating device to the receiving device that are e2e.
Group chats were never encrypted because they're convenience chats, not places to tell secrets. IE you can look back at all the history and shared files from any device you log into. You can search for a message from 2 years ago to remember something that was discussed previously.
I'm a big telegram defender because it's the nicest cross platform chat app to stop your parents from creating the n+1th mms group chat from their iphones, torturing all android users. It's also not a Meta app, and doesn't have the nerd requirements of an actual encrypted chat.
soak up a lot of the unpleasant oil-caused factors in coffee
So I actually like oily coffee, I'm talking more the harshness. I cant really explain it because its so rare I drink it black.
But also I'm not messin with fancy brew methods day-to-day. I have my moka pot and french press for treats but in the morning i take approx 30 seconds to set my drip machine up and do other things.
My parents drank coffee like that and it always gave me the yuck. I can't have any sugar in my coffee now. I'll drink it black but the texture sorta yucks me. I'll use a splash of whole milk to reduce the acidity and slightly alter the texture.
Are there any alt milks that don't have a grainy texture/dehomoginize the second it hits the coffee?
Oat milk is grainy. Soy milks are like skim milk which I already find gross. Pistachio/almond milk separate and don't evenly mix with the coffee without a ton of stirring, and only sometimes.
If I go to Vietnam and get one of these guys bothering me, can I call the cops and have them taken away?
Like theoretically
I have this really shitty drip pot that cost 34 dollars 8 years ago. The drip valve broke off when I dropped the filter cone a couple years ago so now you have to wait until it's good and done before you even think about taking coffee.
It maximizes my micro plastic consumption but it simply won't die.
I grind my beans with an electric burr grinder that I have never cleaned and now it's not outputting as much grinds as it should so I'll have to give in and take it apart soon.
I used to use this hand grinder daily for like 2-3 years. Its a really nice japanese one with ceramic burrs that I bought on impulse. I'm really glad I got the electric grinder as a gift.
