I am exactly the same! Our dishwasher is my most precious possession. Got a great deal on a little half size portable one for our tiny apartment kitchen. And we love our robot vacuum too. His name is Chumley. He doesn’t run often though, because it’s so hard keeping the floors clear enough that he doesn’t get stuck lol

Socks by the door is a great idea, because I’m constantly losing mine

That is a wild choice to put in a collection of poems for Mother’s Day lmao

As long as you don’t kidnap your doctor, like they did

Shaka, when the walls fell 😔

Betterhelp is a scam

How do you force yourself to do something

Ooh, these are great! Laundry definitely is another one for me. I don’t know how to put a good break between doing the laundry, and putting it away, without just never putting it away.

The bin idea is so helpful, I will definitely be using that.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that can’t handle cast iron. I feel the exact way you do. I can barely handle normal dishes, there’s no way I’m adding extra work for questionable benefit lol

I was recently in college for IT, and my professors said a couple of times that it’s best practice just to assume that all of your info has already been stolen

You have a big paper due on Monday? Don’t smoke until it’s done, because you won’t get more creative, you’ll just not do it.

I actually love writing while high. Everything flows so much more easily for me, and I make connections I might not otherwise. It’s great when I’m having trouble just getting words on the page. It does usually require an extra passover in editing though lol

The university I went to told us not to bother with unpaid internships, because it’s just a sign the company doesn’t care about you. Paid internships pretty much always still give college credit.

Netflix’s content has gotten so much worse too. I don’t think there are many people left that have a subscription for more than one or two shows. And this seems to be a trend across all the different apps. Makes me glad I set up automatic torrenting for everything I’m interested in, and all it costs me is $5/month for Proton VPN

As with most bleeding edge technology, all the danger comes from capitalism, and not the technology itself.

I hate crowd work. Getting called on while on a night out is my worst nightmare

I don’t think Trump and his ilk are known for being attractive

It really feels like we’re peasants, gathered by the fire, gossiping fearfully about the prospect of a succession war

hunger is “fundamental to the working of the world’s economy”

I mean, he’s probably right, but that means we should work to change the system, not throw more orphans into the crushing machine

That’s one of my favorite traits in my partner. She’s great at keeping the conversation going, which is important, because I’m terrible at it lol

When we get high together, there’s usually about an hour period, that I call her Wikipedia time, where she finds a random topic, and has to talk about it at length

Lansing MI has one

In recent years, rightsholders have made several attempts to shut the site down. Court orders have led to LibGen being blocked in several countries, but completely eliminating the threat has been extremely difficult. This is partly because the identities of those running it remains unknown.

In 2017, Elsevier won a court case against LibGen and Sci-Hub in a New York federal court, which awarded the publisher $15 million in damages. However, both shadow libraries remained online and continue to operate to this day.

The lawsuit was stalled for months because LibGen’s anonymous operators didn’t respond. With no other viable options left, the publishers filed a motion for a default judgment in their favor.

Keep it up, LibGen
