    This has been my tactic for the last few years. Doesn’t work for everyone, like my ex spouse couldn’t handle it. I keep rough track of calories and if I have a craving for trash I either eat less of it and supplement with low calorie stuff to still feel full, or do a bunch of extra exercise that day




  • Yeah my ex spouse would rather drive 5min then spend 15min finding parking every day for work than do the 15 minute walk. Then every day complain about parking and get instantly defensive if I brought up walking instead. This was a thing with going out too I’d want to walk and they’d want to drive. I’d get there first because of time spent finding parking. Half the time they’d walk just as far as I did anyway because parking in the area completely sucked




  • I’m really lucky I decided to get my passport about a year ago, mostly on impulse since I got invited to travel with someone. I’ve set things in motion to be out of country in 6-8 months but I also have a bug out bag with documents and a bunch of cash just in case. If I hear about trans people with existing passports getting blocked then I’m grabbing that bag bailing day of if I have to, hope to get lucky and not have the passport seized

    Everything is so fucked right now. This time around feels different. Last time there was a lot of “I’m going to leave the country” talk but now people are quite serious when they say it. Hang in there and if you need to talk to anyone or anything I’m here. We’ve got to have community or we’re not going to make it








  • Nicotine is water soluble. You can take a wet tobacco leaf off the plant and it’ll soak into your skin and get you a bit buzzed (or in my case when I discovered this mid harvest if you touch enough it’ll get you massively high and nauseous). Imo one of the best ways to get some in relative safety is grow your own, they’re really easy, and just put a leaf under your tongue for a bit then spit it out




  • I used to work for a university trying to modernize how people got student and financial data. Over half my work was playing politics rooting out people who refused to change and going above their head. We had one guy who didn’t want to update a script on his end to include the bare minimum amount of ‘security’: a hard coded plain text password. It took me months and I had to go to his office to update his script and he complained about it the entire four minutes it took
