Sounds like the words of a boring teacher who’s incapable of meaningful self-reflection as to what they could maybe improve upon

Pardon my ignorance, but how it this different from vimms?

I went back to check. This is correct. It’s the un official one in f-droid.

My bad!

It could be but I find the android app buggy (this month I’ve been using bookwyrm, GR, Open Reads, and The Story Graph to compare them all and still nothing is as smooth as GR. Plus bookwyrm has no apple app. I love where Bookwyrm is going but right now the switch is not the best

As a Canadian, yes please. Their culture infiltrates ours so much that there are some people who believe in the American superiority and don’t understand that we’re two different peoples, with very different approaches to how we should live and treat others. Obviously, we Canadians are not perfect, and we have more in common than not but it’s disheartening to hear Canadians (including people in my own inner circle) view our country as nothing but the USA’s little bitch.

I get the world is sliding right, and our political pendulum definitely swings. But I worry that in the efforts to acknowledge the harms that we’ve done (and currently do) to people in our own country, that the backlash to those policies and acknowledgments will cause us to lose things that I’m proud of and freedoms that I enjoy.

I did the same thing!

Mr. D (think Michael Scott but a teacher)

Shrinking (low stakes like Ted Lasso)

Taskmaster UK (if you like comedy panel type shows. Although it’s not really a panel in the traditional sense)

So many things factor into this…

Our house became significantly (like 97%) less dusty when our dog passed.

Routine

We have 3 small kids, so we try to tidy up physical stuff (toys, clothes, bags, etc) every day. Dishes too.

Once a week is wiping down nin-kitchen surfaces

Once a month is wiping down baseboards and door trim

Found Orpheus but couldn’t for red - thanks!

Stupid question I think but since this isn’t private, I should use a VPN?

Im sure this is a dumb issue, but all I can find are guides for these trackers. Are there links somewhere or are they hidden from web searches?

Which tracker(s) do you use for music? I’m looking into ditching $potify

Ditto!

This gum commercial

For me, it’s “Grandad”

Seconded. I didn’t know the life cycle of a router but I replaced my asus router with another asus router recently. Not because it stopped working but because we have so many devices for our iot and I wanted some vlan. The old one is being repurposed at someone else’s house

The problem is when people say “financial losses” about services. Canada Post goes everywhere and is a service in our country. Much like healthcare and education. No one says “education profits are at an all time low and our hospitals have losses in the billions” because they are public services. These are things that as taxpayers, we value and use to make us a society

Canada Post is not fucking FedEx or UPS and shouldn’t be held in the same regard as it.

(this is not saying that they couldn’t be more efficient though, to this I have no comment that isn’t likely uninformed).

I’d say the same. And he’s got so many good quotes, most (killin’ aside) relatable.

Logan Ninefingers (First Law) Amos Burton (Expanse) Wayne & Steris (Mistborn, Era 2)

I don’t think there’s another character I like more than these folks. Logan probably sits at the top though.

10/10 recommend. I’m 6/9 through the expanse and on 7/10 with Joe Abercrombie. (these are number of books, not ratings)

Joe’s books are great. After the first trilogy, it’s 3 stand-alone and a compilation of short stories. So if you don’t love his stuff (if you liked the expanse you will) you can be done after the First Law Trilogy

My lemmy username is directly related to the First Law Trilogy

I realized that I, on paper, really like non-fiction books. In practice, I really only like fantasy and space operas (different than sci-fi)

Every night before bed, I read 10 pages or a chapter. Whichever comes first. Can always read more, but not less.

So to answer,

Almost every night Fantasy / space opera Mid 30s, father I’ve added audiobooks to my commute The most important part (I think) is figuring out what you like, and then setting a small but achievable routine
