I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It’s such a small specific thing, one I’d never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now....
No, but my oldest son(6) loves them. There used to be an olives stand at the farmer’s market near us and we surprised them by bringing a toddler who wanted olives. We let him try a bunch of different kinds. I will eat olives if I’m drunk and someone gives me a slice of pizza that has them, but otherwise they’re a no for me.

Trying to keep my very picky eater 3yo healthy as we’re (hopefully) expanding his diet. Right now the only foods I can get him to actually eat are McDonald’s, a specific brand of yogurt, banana bread, some crackers and some bars. Refuses any beverage besides water. (He’s likely on the spectrum.)

Do you like olives?
I need to settle an argument I started. My argument: olives are gross....
What vegetables and fruits do you wish were commonly available in the US?
What animals do you dislike for unusual reasons and why?
For me:...
Do you consider Lemmy/Reddit (and similar platforms) to be social media?
I had this discussion with a friend, and we really couldn’t reach a consensus....
What's your favorite budget "little treat"?
When I want a little sweet treat I make smoothies....

If you were alone in the woods, would you rather come across Windows or Linux?
Posted with my thinkpad running Arch btw.
There used to be a point were I was mostly too young to get the joke. Now I'm mostly too old to get the joke...
