That’s not far off for some of us. That’s about 25 bucks a month, and until about 2 years ago I was making just enough to have about 30 bucks left over at the end of the month that I didn’t spend on bills or food. Then I did fairly well for about 2 years, with about 200 bucks a month left over… Then my mom passed away 2 months ago, and since my job was being her caregiver, I’m now jobless. :/ life sucks

Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Android@lemdro.id•Lawnchair - Android Launcher has early access release on play store.English8·11 months agoI thought so! When I saw this my first thought was “wait, isn’t that the one I used to use several years ago?”
Yeah, it is. Ended up not being compatible on a new phone is why I switched, I think…forgot about it after.
I honestly used to love a traffic jam on the way to work. An extra hour I wasn’t at work, just chillin’ listening to my music, not being at fucking work. It was great. If traffic was completely stopped, like put it in park, turn off the ignition stopped, then it was Netflix on my phone time baby.
Traffic jams on the way home suuuucked though. At the time real time traffic info in my area was spotty at best, though. Almost impossible to use as an excuse now.
I am ashamed to admit I have never tried this, and just learned to throat the hard way. :/
Yeah, they 3d scanned my feets. The new insurance pays some, just not sure how much. 200 is the out of pocket.
Dammit, now I gotta start looking for shoulder blade porn, cause that is sexy…
Up until a few ago I was getting my inserts from a local place, you put them in hot water and then stand on them for a couple minutes until they cool and harden.
Then I got insurance that covered them. The difference it makes is insane. I lost that insurance 2 years ago, and I’ve been alternating the 3 pair trying to get them to last as long as possible. At this point there’s not much left of them, but they’re all I’ve got. It’s 200 bucks for my next set (3 pair), and I’m gonna have to figure that out soon.
I see a lot of jokes about knee fetish in this thread. I dated a dude with a knee kink. It was disconcerting at first, but being the enlightened, nonjudgmental being I am, I went with it. Wasn’t my thing at all, but honestly, the best word to describe it was inoffensive. He mostly just wanted to rub them, and occasionally get kneed in bed. Very meh experience.
You’re normal, you’re just not usual. Also foot fetish is, like, the most standard fetish at this point.
Plus which, feet can be sexy as hell.
I’m both of these people. I like foots. But also, I have terrible foot pain due to high arches, and have had mostly jobs where I’m on my feet for hours. I will talk insoles and inserts whenever possible, as a way of helping people with foot pain. What I do not do is have any interest in talking foot stuff as a kink/fetish. Kink and fetish are reserved for consensual bedroom (or camping) times. There’s no connection between the foot pain convos and the foot kink whenever that happens. People who try to stealth their way into nonconsensually getting people to play into their kink are creepy, and not good people.

Korra is good, but it doesn’t hit the same, and 70 years is not enough to fully industrialize a society.

Join us. We have knitting circles and cookies. It’s great. You get all the existential dread of knowing what the fuck is wrong with the world, with the added full knowledge that the things that could fix it will likely never happen because we missed our chance at a revolution before the people in power had nukes, and now even if you convince everyone that it would be better that way, those in power will straight up nuke their own people before allowing them to govern themselves, destroying whole swathes of the planet, along with unreplaceable history and culture.
Plus, there’s a nifty æsthetic, and a range of really good music from folk to metal.

Dharma Curious@startrek.websiteto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•All of the 90s cats are dead.3·2 years agoHow do you do this? I’ve seen it for years, but never thought to ask before. Lol.
Sponge is flat hand, like paper is currently. Fire is palm up, all fingers pointing up, wiggling, water is palm down, all fingers pointing down, wiggling. And you’re right, that’s an awesome variant.
You’re forgetting lizard, and Spock.
Thanks. She was my whole world. Like… Crazy close, best friend. It’s been rough. I appreciate the sentiment.
