the number of public fallings out we’ve had so far is shockingly low given the astronomical levels of RSD on this forum. congratulations to everyone on being able to mostly manage their emotions like adults

I used to be liek “do i have RSD? I don’t think I do” and then i realized that at least half of my decision to present like i do in class is cause I had a student complain once about me being in make up and saying some shit to the department and i was like “wait a minute…”

Tbqh y’all seem like a genuinely chill group of people so far, so that doesnt surprise me so much :o
Ik we havent been here like, long, but the generally laid back tone and slower pace has been nice, and probably helps avoid that kinda thing

I honestly think everyone on here is very sweet! I’m just always amazed when this many people with ADHD can gather in one place and NOT give each other violent complexes (this is 98% a joke)

It’s a nice feeling to read something I wrote a few weeks ago expecting it to be kinda half-baked and go “oh no I was cooking actually, this fucks, just needs a few tweaks really”

it has worn off now and honestly i feel pretty good even after just our first dose. depression fog is still there ofc but the like… stimulating aspect or whatever since it’s an SNRI is actually giving me some energy for the first time in a while. :>

Previously, we played some halloween music on the radio at work. Not much, and I only recall three songs that I felt confident were for halloween (Disturbia, the Ghostbusters theme, and Tubular Bells, or the Exorcist theme). Today we were at least 50% christmas music. it gets really grating to hear someone belt out “Its finally christmas!” on november goddamn first

Hopped to the grocery store real quick before everything closes down and there was an older lady with gorgeous blue hair there. Like, curlier than mine and quite longer, and a light sky blue (and also a little gray) and I was like “hell yea lady, keep rocking on” (in my mind)

Netflix has recently removed most of its Palestinian movies from its catalog, which is a fairly amazing coincidence, so if you were ever curious about cinema - from other countries as well - Solidarity Cinema has an extensive list of movies from multiple places, including the State of Palestine, free to browse
Mind you, this is only a list of titles and summaries, no direct downloads. If you somehow find yourself going to the Solidarity Cinema main page and finding something else available, that’s unrelated

Voted early today, and signed up for a library card while I was there (There’s a library directly on the way home from my work! That I just… never knew about!). Between this and the barnes and noble opening literally next door to my work, I think I’m gonna find a lot more books to read in the near future (Will I read them? That’s… a different question)

we also did a hike on the tallest mountain on the island because there’s some interesting monastery ruins up there
and the food was p good

makes me feel like the joker that artists and bloggers who still use tumblr will only link their posts through tumblr/blogname/post links nowadays and not blogname.tumblr/post links. the reason i closed my tumblr was because blogname.tumblr pages were becoming infested with prompts to log in and install an app for logged out users, but tumblr/blogname links are basically unusable for logged out users unless you’re only linking to single image posts. saw a pixel artist link “heres my definitive guide to doing pixel art!” as a tumblr/blogname/post link and its an ugly dashboard embed link that you can only read a third of before tumblr yells at you for not being logged in. genuinely dont understand how people keep posting these links like its normal, im so old man yelling at cloud… please… make websites or get real blogs…

The real issue with making your own website or blog is reach, since its way harder to get someone on an entirely random corner of the internet to see your website than it is to get them to potentially see a social media post that got shared a bunch (not that tumblr has been great for this either!)
So the tradeoff for having full control over your work is that the sheer number of people who see (and potentially pay for) that work collapses without a TON of extra marketting effort
And like yeah, there are more homegrown ways of doing this (webrings, networking with communities of artists elsewhere, posting your work to your website and links to that work to other sites, ads i guess, etc) but none have the same ease of access and sharing that modern social media does to users. People just dont like clicking on links to go outside the website
But im not an Expert on social-media-less methods of marketting yourself, so i’d be interested to know if i’ve overlooked something, bc social media Blows Chunks
