Landlords. Do I think it’s terrible for some nice old person to rent their basement to students for a good price for a bit of income in retirement? No. But corporate landlords and people hoarding housing can fuck off.

Once a week. I hate feeling like the sheets are dirty and rumpled.
Classical voice. I like lieder, Matthew Polenzani’s Lizst album is wonderful, or Lisette Oropesa’s Mozart arias album.
What We Do In The Shadows and Letterkenny.

I am officially in menopause as of next month. Honestly I’ve had almost no symptoms and that’s because I’m psychiatrically medicated to the teeth. Naltrexone seems to have made the most difference, I’m on it for an anxiety disorder, it’s usually used for substance abuse, but I tell you I’ve done really great. Menopause is not to be taken lightly.
I like that you’re asking this on Lemmy, home of Linux lovers.
And a thing young folks using cannabis seem to be woefully under informed about is that cannabis use can kick off psychosis/schizophrenia as well as something called depersonalization disorder where basically nothing feels real to you, as well as actually lowering your IQ. I lost a high school friend who smoked copious amounts of ditch weed in the 80s and 90s, who became a paranoid schizophrenic and eventually killed himself as a result. I’m not saying occasional use is a big deal, but chronic heavy use is really not good.
The 2020s iteration of Twitter with Space Karen at the helm, and the sharp rise in antivax beliefs with the advent of the COVID vaccine. It’s quite amazing to me how people that even get every other routine vaccine have completely false beliefs about it and don’t get that one. Weaponized disinformation is a terrible thing.
My coworker told me two weeks ago that she was not getting any more COVID vaccines “because they’re pushing it on us”, and yet went and told Public Health that she has multiple sex partners so she could get the monkeypox vaccine. My head is spun over that.
I won’t get into specific patients (I’m not a doctor but work in health care) the worst patients in general is an older person with untreated borderline personality disorder. They call screaming their heads off that the medication they’ve been on forever is giving them side effects, and it’s just that they have this void within them that you can never pour enough attention into. They’re obnoxious, demanding, and treat people in an ignorant fashion as if you are a servant at their disposal, and if you don’t answer them right away they start threatening suicide. The younger ones with BPD are largely at least somewhat aware and are calmer and just sad and tearful, but the total dysregulation of the older ones is a hell of a thing to see.
The antivax parents are the most annoying ignorant people on God’s earth.

My one trick to not get hungry is to eat a teaspoon of olive oil before I go to work or after meals. The best diet to not get hungry on is the high fat low carb diet, so a spoonful of olive oil is a good fat to keep you from getting hungry. I do not recommend keto (true keto for some rare forms of epilepsy and lifestyle keto are not one and the same and it’s not good for your vascular system), but a high fat and low carb diet is the best way to go.
I’m vegan now but a crazy sandwich I tried once was pimiento cheese and pickled watermelon rind.
It’s ok. I don’t talk to her anymore so she can live with the consequences of a lifetime of her garbage behaviour. But yes telnet has the secret gay sprinkles in it.
My mother says it’s my fault my brother is gay, because I showed him how to use the Internet. The Internet then didn’t even have websites, and we used telnet talkers, which was literally just people chatting in text format, it even predated ICQ or AOL or anything. It certainly wasn’t a place you’d turn someone gay, not that that’s a thing you can really do. She just hates that he’s gay even though we were brought up to embrace LGBT people long before people were really out.
I wouldn’t want it myself because I think Reddit is super shitty now, but if their instance could be blocked I suppose it wouldn’t matter.
That said I don’t think they will. They’ll remain in their walled garden until they’re as obsolete as AOL became.
My knees hurting so much. If I were taken hostage and ordered to kneel I could not and would be vaporized.
My aunt found out last week she has bowel cancer and I’m super worried. The gastroenterologist thinks surgery should fix things, so here’s hoping, but she’s like my mom so I’m scared.
