Being "listless" sounds like a positive thing to me. 🤷‍♀️

My reaction to discovering the leftover mexi-cali patti fits in a glass container roughly the exact width : HELL YEAH

Y'all I just made myself feel so old, hubs looked up top 100 music from 2001, 2011, 2021, and today and the amount of music I could recognize decreased by significantly. I recognized probably 70% of 2001 and decreasing as I went on. BUT I blame the internet, I can listen to exactly the kind of music I want with no dependence on the radio, but also I'm old!

@RickiTarr
I used to be in the habit of going to the New Releases section of whatever music app I'm using, and just trying a handful of songs because whatever about the track seemed appealing.
When the Play Store had music, there was a lot of free indie stuff, so I grabbed a bunch of that.

I also work in an office where young people play Spotify/Pandora on the office speakers, so I use that "what's this song" feature on my phone a lot.
Plus I seem to follow a lot of people who like to share music I've never heard.

I almost stepped on a bird on the sidewalk yesterday and it didn't even flinch at first. I thought it was frozen in place dead somehow. But it did flap it's wings when I started to walk on. I continued walking, looked back, bird still on the sidewalk.

I was worried that made it an easy target so I went over and stomped near it to scare it and that didn't work until I got close enough to basically pick the bird up and THEN it flew into a tree.

Hey, what's your experience with LibreOffice and Collabora?

I have been writing a lot of stuff that's erotic and smutty, and I saw a post suggesting that google might lock me out of my own files because of that.

So it's time for a different place to keep and write my smut.

Also, if there are alternatives to GoogleDocs/Microsoft that I haven't heard of, please share.

I'm hoping for open source, free or one-time purchase situations. No subscriptions.

Thoughts?

@hankg

Wow, thank you so much! I am solo writing, so collaboration isn't a concern.
I've been writing stories in my head forever and now I want to start actually writing at least some of them out. Maybe that's just backstory for some paintings, or maybe a graphic novel or comic strip series.

What is the thing(s) that attracts you to a person romantically or otherwise?

HunkThunderzone,
@HunkThunderzone@beige.party avatar

@RickiTarr
Romantically it is Laughter, ultimately.

Does he "get" my sense of humor? Is his sense of humor compatible with mine? Does he play along? Does he leave it open for me to play along with his jokes?

Outside of physical factors, it's that humor component. If I can't even get a chuckle out of him, he's dead weight.

"Since you're a gay couple who cooks?"

"Since you're both girls, how do you decide who opens doors?"

"But you're guys, how do you decide who pays for dinner?"

"Who decides......"

We talk about it.

Didn't see that one coming, did ya? Yes, when you don't have (or don't want to follow) gender roles, you have to talk about things. Just like any people having to make a decision for themselves. It's not a big deal. I like talking to my husband.
For a lot of things, one of us took the initiative and the other eventually circled back to see if that was working out. Other times we have to just talk it out.
Like recently it was technically HIS turn to pay for groceries. However, since the last trip he'd paid for a bunch of night's takeout and frozen stuff he bought on his way home. So I felt it made more sense for me to pay for the groceries again.

Okay, since I'm on laundry today, a little story.

When hubs and I first got married, we were very much enjoying our little Honeymoon Bubble, and we were being lazy as Hell. We didn't do many chores, but the laundry we really let go. We weren't wearing many clothes at home anyway, so why bother. Anyhow, after weeks we finally reached the swimming suit bottoms situation, and decided it was time. It was loads and loads of laundry that needed done, so I had my husband back the trunk of the car up to a window of the house, then he popped the trunk, and I started tossing laundry out of the window into the trunk. We went to the bank, got about $30 bucks in quarters, and found the emptiest laundry mat we could, and did it all in one fell swoop. We folded it all and loaded it back into the car using those wheeled laundry carts. We never let it get that bad again, and decided it was time to be adults, and do regular chores, but it still makes me laugh imagining what the neighbors and the laundry attendant thought.

Feel free to share your own laundry story, if you feel like it, I love hearing people's stories!

@RickiTarr
I used to hate laundry. I figured out a way to make peace with it.

I do it at 6am on Saturdays. I am up anyway, and doing it that early, it's finished and mostly put away by 9:30. so it feels like it takes less time, takes up less of the day because it's basically over before the day really gets going.

Also, we used to do our laundry separate, but he would procrastinate, so I just started doing his clothes too. Now he does the whites and anything he feels is too delicate for the machines, and I do the rest.

Sometimes it seems like the pressure to have kids is just a variation on the whole: Always Work, Always Be Productive mantra.

If you're not making product, or making money off your hobbies, then you better be making heirs!

But, what are you going to do with all that time?

I tried living in the suburbs, it's not for me.

within a 5-10 minute walk, I have several buses and train lines, 2 grocery stores, a bunch of restaurants, bars, cafes, and tons of shopping, pharmacies, and a cannabis dispensary, 6 parks, 3 of which have community centers on site, the 3 that don't are on the lakefront with water access.

I don't get the appeal of living so remotely from everything, in a giant housing area without even sidewalks. It's really not that loud living closer to shops and what not. The convenience more than makes up for any hassle.

@RickiTarr Most of the apartments I've lived in have nice thick walls and ceilings/floors.

In the building we've been in for 9 years, the front doors are the sound leak. Unless you're right next to the door (and so are the neighbors) they can't really hear anything and vice versa. We share a wall with a nice single gal, and we never hear her, and she's said the same.

If you're looking at a potential date and creating a list of things you want to "fix" about them - Stop, move on. This person is not for you.

Here's what happens when you try to fix someone:

  1. They get annoyed/insulted and they dump you.

  2. They resent it and become worse out of spite.

  3. You fix them, and now you're no longer interested in them.

  4. You fix them, and now they're no longer interested in you.

  5. You fix them, they're alright for awhile, but then they meet someone who makes them realize there was never anything wrong with them and they dump you.

  6. They develop unhealthy coping mechanisms because you're asking too much.

Unless they're already motivated to change on their own, it's not going to end well.

USAA really really not reading the room here and is now unveiling voice account verification, just as the whole world knows it's trivially easy to clone someone's voice with AI. Incredibly bad decision that will undoubtedly lead to bank accounts getting drained.

I'm a USAA member and found a few leadership emails. Sent them a little piece of my mind "Listen to the geeks that told you NOT to do this and fire every single one that said you should. Someone is trying to make fraud easier."

What cracks me up is when you go to a restaurant, and they ask if you've been there before, and then they say, "Well, we do things a little different here", and then it's exactly like every other restaurant, but more expensive.

@RickiTarr I was at FlatTop Grill and the server got all mad at me when I told my date that it was mongolian barbeque.

Dude, it's not my fault your competitor named their restaurant after the cuisine you both sell.

@RickiTarr @sezduck @Alice I get felt up by a waitress when I was like 13 when she did that.

No, she was not hot.

Also, I am 100% gay, so it was entirely disturbing and unwanted. I just froze and spent most of dinner going, "Did that really happen?" to myself.

One thing I miss from retail was the in-store intercom/paging system.

You give me a loudspeaker and I become a total ham. I have a Game Show Host version of my voice I use for just such occasions. Those of a certain age will swear I sound a lot like Moviephone.

My favorite manager at the grocery store was Wanda, because paging her was so much fun. "WANDA RED LINE, WAAAANDAAAA REDLINE, PLEASE!"

And the Container Store called their registers "bays" and they were lettered A and B.
"REGISTER BACKUP TO BAY B, REGISTER BACKUP BABY!"

I just did a little searching and 5'4" for women DID come up in one place, Wikipedia has a breakdown by race and country as well.

I wonder if there were errors in the previous figure. Like 5'7" and 5'11" didn't have a wide enough data set?
Seems odd that average height would suddenly drop.

I've said this before and I'll say it again...

I don't care how famous your favorite comedian is. If they complain that they can't write funny jokes anymore because the culture has become too PC, they are in fact a hack.

Being politically correct (or as I like to refer to it, "not being a dick".) doesn't kill comedy. Bad writing does. If you can't write better jokes, don't blame it on the culture. Comedy like any art should reflect the culture.

Don't blame the times. Blame the comedian.

HunkThunderzone,
@HunkThunderzone@beige.party avatar

@negative12dollarbill @Mrfunkedude

My take is this. It's social media.
See, back in the day, if you didn't like a comedian's joke, what could you do? They don't do refunds. Heckle them? Try to figure out who their manager is and write a letter?

Now? You have easy access to a dozen or so ways to let them know what you think of their work. And also their business partners! And they haven't the spine for it.
They were insulated from the public, and now they're not.

Comedy changes, they know that. We don't exactly tell knock knock jokes these days. They just can't keep up. They have a shtick and they wanna keep using it, even if it's run it's course - like all things entertainment do.

This has nothing to do with values, you're just being an asshole because you think you have the right to be one.

In reality, it doesn't matter. She meets with your for what, a minute? Five? Says some cheesy lines, takes a photo or two, and it's done.

You don't need to know what's under her dress -- if you're looking for a pervert, try the mirror. It's on the wall.
