  • I think perhaps it would be nice with custom tags.

    I would like to block all content of sexual nature (sexual nudity, lewd anime, the like)

    it is very subjective what is nsfw and what is not. For some people, making porn is their work, so obviously porn is not nsfw for them.

    If we had custom tags, we would have the hassle of having the same thing in a lot of different categories, but I would much prefer that to having only the nsfw option which is just not enough to capture the diversity of content (and badly named).

    then I could block all the porn tags (or perhaps block a user driven list of porn tags) and avoid a lot more “porn” than I do now 😅








  • I try to be ready to leave, meaning dressed and bag is packed, as early as possible. I am for being as ready as possible at least 15 minutes before I leave. I add and subtract minutes depending on how important the event is and how much I need to have checked before leaving.

    also, I try to aim for being at least 10 minutes early for most events. this is working very good for me. it allows small talk with other people who’ve arrived and it allows time for being late.

    it is time consuming, but I’ve come to enjoy the breaks it gives, before leaving and when arriving early ^^

    also, thinking through what I need to prepare before leaving as early as possible. Often, I think about it the afternoon before I have to pack.

    good luck :)

    //edit:

    these systems don’t stop me from getting distracted and forgetting things, but because I’ve moved everything 15 minutes earlier, then when I’m late for my own deadlines, often I’ll still make it to the actual deadlines :)











  • I like to collect mugs - nothing better than drinking your morning coffee from a crazy mug :))

    I collect mugs with my boyfriend (and the rest of my collective) and it is such a nice hobby. I can almost always guess who brought the mug into the house, based on people’s interest.

    Yesterday I drank coffe from a Friday the 13th Mug and I know one of my collectivists loves that series :))

    the only issue, as with all collections, it takes up so much room in the kitchen 🥲

    I’ve worked in shipping for a couple months and I can only say this: People should order way less stuff online or make sure they are using an ethical shipping company (if they even exist).

    the industry prays on young people (often minorities) who have trouble getting other jobs. they almost exclusively hire people with short term contracts (because your body can’t take the work for more than a few months). I’ve been part of a union for a long time and I know a lot about work safety. These companies teach people nothing and they can only meet their deadlines if people actively break their backs twisting around, doing unsafe lifts and generally working to fast.

    I get that shipping is sometimes necessary, but it can only be as fast and cheap as it is, because poor people pay with their bodies.
