Direct message

Making food, either baking or cooking. They focus you on the here and now and you eat well to boot.

A hobby that has helped me a lot is knitting. It’s simple to learn and it’s another truly mindful thing to do for you.

My excitement is maybe small, but I’m excited about the 5-ish hours of sleep I’ve just had, which is such a gift after weeks of pain waking me up all the time

I think that people will still stick with Reddit just like there are a lot of people still using Twitter: it feels like their home online.

Here’s a funny thing though, I’ve seen so many posts on Lemmy by people saying they were lurkers on Reddit but they do (intend to) post here.

That can’t be a coincidence 😊I am one of those former lurkers/occasional posters and I’m kinda active here.

(As an aside: I do wonder if the lack of overload due to constant ads can be attributed to that)

I really don’t miss Reddit much now, because the communities on Lemmy are wonderful, and they can only grow more.

I’ve been on namecheap for a long time. They have a sale going on now. But they are really good, hardly ever a problem and if there is, their customer service is stellar.

I really miss IRC and usenet. And I know both still exist but I miss the communities there 😊

And as this post sorely misses classic romcom:

  • I’m just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her
  • Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me wanna buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address. On the other hand, this not knowing has its charms.

I find the climate change deniers way more tiring.

My health. It’s made me lose so many connections, and lately it’s made me feel like I’m invisible. Not even those closest to me really know how to deal with me and me having to cancel things because my body says no.
