If I’m in the mood for dessert, I normally just have one bite of something sweet and that’s enough. I’ve had pints of ice cream last in the freezer for several months because after one spoon, I’m good. At work, they think I don’t eat any sweets at all. I’ve been told it’s my serial killer trait.

Go surfing if there’s any swell and the wind is right. Garden year round (zone 9a) - we get some freezing temps but can still grow a lot during winter. Play guitar a few times a week. Hang out with friends a couple times a week. Attend local music and art shows. Walks on the beach. Try to keep up with reading for fun and not just technical stuff. Play some video games. Kayaking when the wind is still (rare). Going for a cruise on my single gear bike (beach cruiser). Cooking a nice meal with my wife and guessing how much it would have cost at a restaurant. Letting our dogs pick the route we’re walking on today. Having a couple beers watching the sunset over the sound. Fishing with my mom and stepdad on their boat.

Way less than good coffee beans

Swapped drinking coffee for matcha. Energy levels are way more balanced now

Can only speak for myself, but they are a huge invasion of privacy. I know it’s a drop of water in a bucket with everything else hyper connected, but when I see them it’s always somewhere I’m just trying to enjoy something peacefully and even though it’s very unlikely I’m particularly being watched, it just feels like a huge privacy invasion.

Since it hasn’t been mentioned yet, Zim Wiki. Lacks some of the more modern features in a notes app, but I think that’s one of its strong points.

People assume life will get better after high school. Family life, work, friends, etc… Doesn’t really work out that way for most people, so they start looking at their past as their best of days. It may be more apparent for US citizens because a large part of our history education is the concept of “American exceptionalism,” which really only existed for the small generation right out of WWII.

Doctors Without Borders, EFF, ACLU, and Surfrider Foundation on a monthly basis.

I’ve seen a lot more pro violence posts and comments lately, which is pretty off putting. I’ve not posted several times because I don’t want to end up on a list because of some echo chambers of maladjusted people. I don’t comment that often to begin with, and lemme/piefed seems to attract people banned from other platforms and other weirdos. Just not a very welcoming platform.
