Rofl, I copied you unintentionally. Yes, it’s real.

The emotional support book is non-negotiable.

And we wonder why Jordan Peterson telling someone like this to make their bed blows their whole mind.

I LOVE it!!

you’d think it was an Onion article.

And not even like a good one.

Awwdly specific

Me too—sometimes

I just got into them and I’ll be damned if I’ll let some toaster ruin a perfectly beautiful bit of punctuation

You’ll always feel old, and you’ll always look back at yourself a decade prior and marvel at what a fool you were for feeling old back then when you were really so, so young. This is a universal experience.

I didn’t really get going on anything until my mid 30s. I just cleaned floors and answered phones. Ended up meeting another late bloomer. We both graduated from mid college programs at the end of our 30s, and now we’re both limping through our “careers” in our 40s.

Yeah it might have been better if we started earlier but we didn’t. And I sure as fuck look back at myself at 30 thinking how even with 000 to show for it I was still young and full of future, even if I felt like an ancient loser.

Not medical advice, but I got used to wearing shoes indoors after years of office work, but taking off my shoes when indoors and actually using all my muscles to hold myself upright, has lead to a real reduction in discomfort.

If you’re used to shoes all the time, it HURTS at first to go without and you have to take frequent sit/stand breaks. This is GOOD and you should listen to your body and continue moving in ways that make you feel better.

Your point just reminded me that if you’re capable, that one of the simplest mediations you can do is work with your muscles to keep yourself straight.

I’m literally scrolling my phone while side stretching because my back hurts just from a4 hour sitting shift rooofl 💀

Better ergs? More pillows? Shorter sessions?

So this is the meagre hope I cling to now. I guess it’ll have to do.

Is OVH $4.67/mo? (source)

Yeah that looks about right. I went with their smallest Intel VPS because they had a big 12 month discount on those, so my $/mo is actually less than a toonie right now lol (sadly I don’t think the discount is available anymore). Still it’s a good deal, and as far as “the cloud” goes, I can see myself sticking with these guys for my humble needs.

I use them as a drop-in replacement for a Digitalocean (no complaints, but it’s American, so), and while the UX is certainly a lot rougher with OVH I’ve been happy with them as far as cloud providers can go.

Yay I was included in a list!

There’s also the biosphere to think about. Even in we go, it doesn’t mean that all life has to go with us

Not the person you asked, but I’ve had some luck with ovh. The web interface is a little jank, but it’s super cheap for tiny a vps. Once you get ssh access it’s like every other cloud provider. Not sure how their offerings for managed services is, since I run everything on vps (very small scale).

Next up I’d really like to try self-hosting, and cut out the cloud entirely.

And Offpunk.

Maybe a little JS, as a treat?

It’s fun for hiding little easter eggs.
