I wouldn’t necessarily say I enjoy grocery shopping as much as I reflexively compare prices / deals when out shopping.
It’s not unpleasant by any means but I find it stimulating because I usually plan out my meals for the next few weeks or so while at the store. Instead of planning for meals and then buying the items despite the price, I find the most economical stuff and get a meal plan from there. Sale on strawberries? That’s going in the oatmeal for the next two weeks. Dinged cans of tuna on clearance? That’s my lunch when I don’t want beans.
Once I get my food staples down, flour, rice, oatmeal, and onions, I pretty much mix and match everything else.
It’s weird when you’ve been alive long enough to know the inspirations behind songs you’re hearing for the first time. It’s like hearing the original through a long hallway while the new songs plays on top.
A sense of nostalgia but on a song you’ve never heard before.

It’s one thing to be doomer about the rise of fascism, it’s another to wax poetically about how no one can stop a system as unstable and self-destructive as fascism.
Log off, touch grass, and read theory.
Ever heard of that third one. Adding it to my watch list, thanks for the rec!
I’ll second Umineko, but the anime is straight trash. The VN is really the only medium worth watching imo. You can torrent it but I think it’s also on steam although it’s pretty expensive and it has terrible character models. Just torrent it anyway.
Edit: I forgot the manga for Umineko is actually really good too. If you don’t want to torrent anything that’s the next best thing.
If you like that, the same author also did something similar in Higurashi but instead of mystery novels it’s dating sims. The anime for that is better but still misses some minor points. Steam version of the VNs also have terrible character models so torrenting is your best bet as well.
It’s pretty based but probably not a good hill to die on tbh. If you’re ever in court just shut up, act sorry, and respect the judge. Judges are more or less rulers of their own tiny fiefdom and will give you harsher sentencing if you don’t kiss their ass.
Of course, there’s something to be said about protest in the courtroom etc etc. But this is on a similar level as climate change protestors who throw paint on the side of a building and turns themselves in. It doesn’t really contribute to a better society but it sure hurts you in court.
If I met myself at 16, I would either cringe to death or punch them in the face.
16 is like peak shit take territory.
:same-picture:
critical support for elon musk and his decision to destroy twitter as fast as possible.
Btw, if you’re a match with a misdemeanor theft from 25 years ago you’re getting arrested and sent to jail.
