it completely trips me up that so many people in the replies use "automatic opt-in" or "opt-in by default" to mean "opt-out" words used to mean something

shoutouts to saying yes just because you really fw the person asking and you want them to know that you appreciate them but you low key don't want to but maybe it's just because something is wrong with your brain and you still want to be invited to stuff and hate saying no too much

my fingers vs his fingers in the thermal camera

a vending machine here is selling a new heat wave special: liquid Haribo

Whenever I ask myself why my feed is full of political outrage-bait and dooming, it's usually because I acidentally opened the Discover tab.

time for my pre-social-event anxiety spiral phase not my favourite

the last thing my little teddy bear character saw before he died

people dooming about discord age verification when server owners can literally just opt-out by not setting any channel to age-restricted (and disabling the content filter if needed)

yea wfh is comfy but no free coffee :(

I'm permanently traumatized by Jira I saw someone on public transport playing solitaire on their phone in the corner of my eye, and at first I thought they were furiously moving tickets back and forth across lanes on a kanban board

the worst thing about winter isn't the cold or the dark but the fact that if I don't lotion constantly my skin turns into dry itchy parchment can't wait for it to be summer again

I brought up the burger vs sandwich topic in a discord chat with both Americans and Europeans and then left them to it they're still arguing fiercely after 40 minutes and one of the Euros is quoting Grok

apparently not charging (or using) my cordless drill for years permanently broke the battery pack? is that something that people expect to happen, my boyfriend was like "I'm surprised that you thought it would work" like that's the most normal thing ever

why is it always the same type of person who sets their emoji skin tone to white?

where anger shell, why does sheer force work like this?!

I say this and then play Factorio until 6am by accident.

depending on time of day, my work webcam either overexposes me and I look like a pale vampire queen or it underexposes me and I'm darker than everything else

I just learned that retrofitting a peephole to an apartment door generally does not need to be approved by the landlord in Germany. Guess I know what my next home improvement project is.

I really need to sleep more

work starts back up tomorrow and my sleep schedule is still easily 5-6 hours behind

2025 was pretty good, but I expect 2026 to be even better! happy new year!

sometimes I don't know why I watch the video I watch on YouTube, like what's interesting about some guy just playing gen 3 OU ladder with a rattata on his team, but somehow I'm 45 minutes in

I got up at 5 and I'm tired and I'm hungry

nice restaurant dinner

one more person asking whether I play basketball and I'll just end it all right there and then

Summer packing: small shorts, small top, I can fit a dozen outfits like this Winter packing: big sweater, undershirt, big pants, bag's half full

international mail is so cheap, wdym someone will take my little sheet of paper 7000km halfway across the world for €1.25

I really need to stop fidgeting with my hair to the point that it's unrecoverably messed up, but I do think the messy ponytail look is kinda cute

year 2 of really wishing we also had thanksgiving here

nerd

the word "loony" sounds way too cute to be derogatory

Every now and then

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

rotisserie chicken kinda day

is discord social media?

I feel so weird whenever a project is like To install, just do `curl [something]/install-something.sh | bash`. Like your server could put *anything* in there. You could probably even have someone sitting on the other end of the connection typing commands into my shell. It feels dirty.

I wish I looked like what people tell me I look like

oh HELL NO

It suddenly feels so backwards that you're expected to order something to drink every time you're in a restaurant in Germany. Where's my free complimentary water that just gets brought out for everyone without asking? Why do we accept that we don't just get that here?

I hate fall. It's cold, it's wet, it's basically dark already when I get off work, I can't wear my favourite outfits, literally everything about this sucks. And it's not even going to get any better until 6 months from now.
