  • Yeah, I use it to wipe on my nose when I'm sick or my allergies are bad. It helps prevent it from getting all dried out from the tissues! I also rib a little on my hands sometime#, it goes a long way as a moisturizer. In summer I rub some between my toes if they get dried out.

  • A hot dog. Let the cheese warm to room temp, then toast the bun. Once your Weiner and Buns are both ready put the cheese inside the bun under the dog and it should melt nicely. Add whatever your hot dog toppings of choice are.

    Also literally any kind of sandwich that cheese is good on is another safe bet. Also grilled cheese.

  • We all hurt, we all need, we all cry, we all bleed.

    One of my favorite reminders that everyone has personal struggles.

  • This is stupid on so many levels but fuck it, LET THEM FIGHT

  • Your concerns are valid, you absolutely will see your family less. If you're not okay with that, that's okay! Also keep in mind that the world is not on a night shift. It's significantly harder to sleep normal hours when everything is going on the regular day schedule. That might not matter where you are but where I live that means more noise, more sirens, more people coming and going and keeping me awake. I'm a naturally light sleeper so when I had to work nights I had to go an extra mile or two. Blackout curtains are essential, and you may want to shove a towel under the door if the sun angle is unfavorable and shines it there. I also needed a facemask and ear plugs until I discovered I preferred a nice white noise maker. I still sleep with a white noise machine to this day, love it.

    There are good things to night shift too. Less bullshit all around generally. Depending on what you're doing that can be good or bad. It can be mind numbingly boring if you don't have a set amount of work to do.

  • The call of espresso is irresistible. You can't fight her off for long. She will have you.

  • Why in gods name is a movie review over an hour long? Reviews are short, concise summaries with commentary on the product as a whole. An hour long review of a bad movie is like watching half the bad movie with commentary!

  • Believe it or not out of all the class options nerd has the biggest stat bonuses and passives

  • All due respect to my fellow lemmings, but the ones in these comments are vastly over complicating this. It's extremely simple - you give that info away, and you do it happily. Here's an extremely simple example of every single one of your questions:

    Financial

    • you explore job postings on linked in. You upload your resume to Google drive. You say where you work/what you do on your social media. Your bank statements get emailed. You check your credit through an email reminder.

    political

    You subscribe to websites with particular political leanings. The content you engage with on social media falls in certain political camps. You interact primarily with people that also have those leanings. You block or avoid content that is not to your politcal liking. Every like and subscribe is your personality and political affiliation.

    health

    You searched "symptoms of (insert thing here)." You ordered a next brace on Amazon. Your doctor sends your invoice to your Gmail account. Cvs emails you your receipts.

    religion

    See politics.

    browsing info

    Google literally sells everything you do. It's their business model. Every time you're signed in with Google it's tracking what you do. Every email you receive. Everything you click on. Every item you purchase. Every review you fill out. Google sells it all, and you'd be amazed how fast they do it. Fun experiment, go buy something - jeans, a shirt, shoes, drums, and guitar, whatever from a new place you haven't shopped before. Go buy it and have the invoice go to your Gmail account. Then get on Instagram...time how long or far you scroll before you see an ad for a similar product. Perhaps even a brand you comparison shopped.

    You tell it all these things. Whether you realize you're doing it or not, you tell it everything it wants to know just by using your phone. Google sells it, instametathreads buys it, learns more, and then sells what it learns back to Google and advertisers. Rinse, repeat.

  • You have probably noticed but never appreciated that men don't usually have big hips to keep our pants up (or more specifically our waists and hips tend to be very close to the same size). Some men do, but even well fitting pants slide down on me without a belt. My wife is always amazed when we take our measurements and the hip to waist ratio is so wildly different. She's like "I knew women's hips were bigger but Jesus Christ".

  • Same. I'm not a fan of the Jrpg genre typically but I tried it because it was included on PS plus for a while and had stellar reviews. On top of all your very valid complaints that I agree with, the pacing is just abysmal. At one point you literally see a long cut scene, do nothing but walk down a street, see another one. Then go down another street and turn left and the you guessed it, cut scene that goes into a SECOND cutscene.

    I get that people like it/that style of game, and I'm happy they enjoy them but it's definitely not for me.

  • I think you mean doesn't hurt, but YES. Still releasing regular updates, patches, fixes, expansions, they rule.

  • Meanwhile I have a way weirder problem where I'm seeing posts that are 1-2 years old while filtering by new or active. Makes no sense!

  • Idk about everyone else, but I sort by new on Lemmy and "all" WAY more than I ever would on reddit. Even sorting by new or all on reddit it just shuffles around the same 100 posts they want you to see. Here people post about all kinds of stuff!

  • Probably not entirely your wheelhouse but have you considered coop turned based strategy games (or just turn based in general)? Something like Divinity 2 requires strategy and planning, especially on higher difficulties, but they are entirely turn based and can be played in real time in co-op. Alternatively, games like Disciples Liberation which centers around tactocul turn based combat can be absolutely brutal on high difficulty.
