It’s funny that you mentioned this, because the crappy website is one of the things that sold me on it. It reminds me of the old internet.
It’s also surprisingly affordable, I got a 3 year subscription for something like $60. I was during a sale.
AirVPN (Eddie) has port forwarding. The interface isn’t very appealing and their website is meh, but it works and I got a great deal on a 3 year subscription.
Well I’m autistic so I miss like half the shit normies try to convey. Maybe we’re not as small of a minority as I had previously thought…
… OLED suffer from burn in. They have a built in expiration date. MicroLED is an exciting development that will improve upon existing technology. Probably.
I guess I didn’t know that. Yikes. I’m glad I don’t eat many canned goods.
Fittingly enough, that was the first of his novels I read and will likely be the first one I reread.
Oh! Interesting. Eating cold soup out of the can sure is a vibe. Way to be yourself!
Don’t eat from the can. The inside of the can is lined with plastic, so if you heat the can itself the plastic will leach into your food.
I plan to reread all Clive Barker novels a second time, at some point in my life. His prose is just so unique and has an effortless beauty about it that I’ve yet to find in another author.
Plot can only really draw you in once… when you already know what happens in a story it doesn’t have the same pull it had the first time. But prose has a lasting appeal, one that can be revisited. The indescribable quality of the way that words can make you feel is unique to the relationship between reader and writer.
I don’t. At least not anymore. I used to have a 40 hour, Monday through Friday job, but I had to find something else or I would’ve ended up having a breakdown. I’m autistic, and my life has been a series of periods of trying to be the person society wants me to be, failing, and then spending several years burnt out and unable to function before repeating the whole process. If I hadn’t been able to live with one of my parents during those burnout periods I would’ve likely ended up homeless.
I’ve found that I simply cannot work 5 days a week. Even 40 hours over 4 work days will eventually burn me out. So I found a job that offers 12 hour shifts, and I work weekends. I pick up one or two shifts during the work week when they’re available. I average 32 hours a week.
It’s unarmed security, and it works for me, even though it doesn’t pay well. I’ve just accepted that I will be poor, and my life is much better this way. Capitalism has brainwashed us into believing that money is more valuable than time, and there’s something wrong with you if you can’t match what is expected of you.
I’m autistic and trying to figure out if autism is an at-risk minority group. It doesn’t help that I was extremely vocal on Reddit about how much I hate Trump and Musk. I deleted my account, but Reddit is now a fascist platform and would likely turn over my posts and email address to this administration without a second thought.
I’m not sure what to do. I’m not sure if I could even leave at all, with my debilitating anxiety and trauma.
Last Week Tonight did a story about dollar stores:

Yeah, they’re as bad as you’d expect.
I hope the r/evilautism sub makes it to Lemmy. That one was always my favorite before my IP ban. It makes sense that autistic people would be more likely to receive Reddit bans than a neurotypical user, as we’re statistically left leaning and don’t really have filters. And we hate Musk.
