Yeah it being broken is definitely a first world problem, hence why it has stayed broken for 5 years.

The friggin ice maker on the fridge. Plus the drawers are falling apart and it’s only been 7 years.

But if you install the app you get a free Bluetooth speaker!!

/Joking. Am I the only one who gets that ad constantly whenever I’m using a device that isn’t running ad blocks?

My face reading this 😐😀😰

Doing something because you wanted to makes you way more grown up than the clothes.

Are they Kidde? I’ve had 3 photoelectric Kiddes that started failing and going off randomly. I’ve been slowly replacing all of mine.

The builder installed them. Occasionally walking through our neighbourhood we hear other people’s going off too.

Your comment made me look at your username and now I regret it.

That’s why I like my galaxy beats live buds. They don’t really sit in ear- mostly they sit just outside.

Because then they wouldn’t be able to tell you to return your seat to the upright position for landing.

Then watch Futurama. It is her!

Same to you, friend.

I used to feel the same way with mirrors and actually wanted to write into my will that all photos of me must be destroyed upon my death. The idea of being permanently recorded terrified me.

I think therapy really helped, since if anything my appearance has strayed further from my mental image. That’s not to say it’s the same for you. It’s a relief to me that I’m not the only one who has felt this way, and I hope that you find some relief from the feeling itself too.

I just learned about this, and think I have it too, to an extent. I’ve grown more comfortable as I move age and transform closer to the hag witch I was born to be.

It’s called a fear of being perceived, or scopophobia. Apparently it’s common with neurodivergence (though I personally wouldn’t consider myself neurodivergent- at least not enough to seek a diagnosis).

Exactly my response!!

Never is a very long time my friend.

I try to treat everyone as though I might be the first drop of kindness they have seen in some time, and my mantra when I find it difficult is “be kindness”- as in, choose the kindest option available to me at the time.

THAT SAID, I would not call myself a nice person, and if I was asked this I would elaborate that I try to be kind. I’ve known a handful of people who call themselves nice and I’ve been disappointed in their lack of patience and grace for others. Nice people don’t need to say they’re nice.

Well congratulations to the newly minted Dr!

How did it go?!

Snap my fingers. That or whistle.

Even if they don’t make up 1% of Steam’s catalogue (though I doubt that figure), they have had real impact.

It’s ok to not like them personally, but to say no one cares is disingenuous. Balatro doesn’t require much in terms of hardware but is having a real moment right now. Stardew Valley has been killing it for 8 years. People have thousands of hours in Rimworld.

Indie games are also great for community and modders.
