Hope you found some testers for your containers! If you still want more testers, I’m not PNW based (in texas) but I’m a professional photographer and have so many plants and never enough containers, especially hanging ones. I’d love to help out :)
Oh yes, good point. That’s a big part of my problem when it came to my reddit experience in the end. I mean shit, I was a redditor since 2009. It was hard to leave but also not.
Wow! I just looked and I’ll have my cake day soon too! I really thought it had been 6 months. Time flies.
Gonna be honest, a lot of times I feel like I don’t belong here, I’m still figuring things out. I’m not a “techy” type person (that seems to be some kind of prerequisite) and I barely know how to explain the fediverse to the layman, but I left reddit when they fucked over Joey (my preferred reddit app) and read enough to give reddit the middle finger and never look back. It’s been nice, really. I spend more time outside of the internet now. But I believe in the fediverse, I think it’s the right thing to do. I still check up on lemmy daily, but I get much more value and human connection and only spend the time that is appropriate on lemmy instead of endlessly scrolling. Most days I end up in some Wikipedia rabbit hole. Just like the good ol’ days. Learning new things, meeting new people. That’s what I love about the internet.
Is THAT why I’ve literally never been able to see these???
I bumped into my high school abuser a few weeks ago. It’s been 17 years. They didn’t notice me thank god. I still had a small panic attack and had to like, process it. They really fucked me up though. Not a normal bully.
I’m a professional photographer. I’ve been a photographer for about 15 years but I started my own LLC in 2021. I studied the business side on YouTube/ googling stuff and listened to a TON of podcasts on the subject. Now wedding photography is my full time gig and I have a studio where I do boudoir, newborns, and rent studio space to other photographers. My future ambitions include hosting workshops where I teach other aspiring photographers. When I started in the industry it was male dominated and now that’s changed dramatically and it’s nice to see. I struggled a lot to be taken seriously in the early days. That’s why I was so inclined to start my own business/be my own boss.
I’ve always thought of it as a movie, but yeah, longer with added dialogue and stuff. I have Stella tattooed on my arm, I’d LOVE to see some sort of remake/retelling of Interstella5555
They still have weird shit like that all over kids youtube. I forbade it in my house after seeing a video of a kid literally shooting their mom in the face. Before I was just blocking entire channels but after that… yeah no youtube kids in my house.
In order to get rid of my car, I would have to quit my job, grow my own food, homeschool my kids, and pretty much only go outside of my homestead on special occasions. Then I wouldn’t be able to afford my mortgage. Our society isn’t conducive to that type of lifestyle. For reference, I live on a ranch, the closest grocery store is a 30 minute drive, the closest neighbor is at least a mile. We have no public transport, no Uber or lyft service, no taxis, etc. I love living out here though. I can see the milky way every night, I can camp and hike on my own property, I can enjoy nature in a way not many can. I don’t think I could give that up, if for nothing else, my mental health.
All of my girlfriends are into true crime and I just don’t get it. I tried it out, got sad, decided it wasn’t for me.
Minimalist phone. If you have ADHD and/or want to increase productivity or get anxiety about your phone notifications, look into this app. It’s been sooooo beneficial for me.
Having my virginity taken from me by force. Almost 20 years ago but fuck that guy. So much counseling and it’s impacted every aspect of my life and he’ll never know how much it affected me. He probably doesn’t even remember.
I can’t see these as anything but face up?
Minimalist Phone has changed my life. For anyone looking to either spend less time on social media or get rid of the digital clutter constantly bombarding you, this app is amazing.
It Filters my notifications so I can check them on my own time, it sets time limits on all social media and game apps and kicks you out when time is up, and it has a simple black background with no app icons, only the names of the apps you choose in white letters. Perfect for my over-stimulated adhd brain.
Texas is definitely hotter than that. I’m in Central texas, terrible drought right now and we’ve been seeing consistent 104f days for weeks. I think we had a few days that were 98f but it’s been hotter than normal, even if just by a few degrees. My car always registers as 110f or above while driving. It’s crazy.
Joey, I would gladly use Joey again if they hosted Lemmy
I’m a professional photographer, hardly “tech” although that world interests me.
I’m a wedding photographer. My dad was a wedding dj and I grew up around the wedding industry. I went to school for art and photography was my focus. Wedding photographer just made sense. I love what I do and I can’t imagine anything else.
