I'm in the group that gets violently sick using VR. It also induces blinding migraines. Oddly, I don't get car/air/seasick.

For about a year, everytime I took a screenshot in EVE Online all my USB devices would uninstall and reinstall. Never occured in any other situations.

Select only what you need.

The hypocrisy of caring and Hallmark holidays.

Some calendar days were created by companies out to make money, others by organizations trying desperately to raise awareness for their worthwhile cause.

The end result is often the same, jump on the bandwagon for one day to be seen as doing good or being good, then hop off and return to business as usual.

There's a calendar day coming up that every year makes my life worse. For one day a year, acquaintances ask me a question, don't care about or listen to my answer, and then go back to ignoring me for another year. Oh but hurrah for them, they did the thing they normally wouldn't because social media gives them warm fuzzies for announcing they did the thing. They don't even remember the questions or answers, for them, it was a thing to do, instead of being a better caring person for the other 364 days.

I'm waiting for Fuchi and Renraku...

Consider sealing off the stove extractor fan (when not using the stove) if you have one, it was our biggest leak during the heavy smoke season.

Could feel it too. Anything above 100 is already unpleasant. It got so bad it was like a gritty orange fog, and the smell got into everything. Couldn't see ten meters on the worst days. Thankfully we had air filter units already for hayfever season.

We had 999 (scale used didn't go any higher) during the Australian fires a few years back. Going to need a new air quality measurement system soon. :/

Reaching out and being ignored.

Word. Just left a few communities that I was the only gal in. They can choke on their rape jokes, dick holding and death threats. But I'm the one overreacting to them "burning off steam".

I wanted to play a game without having to deal with a bunch of sexist manchildren, not call the suicide hotline twice in six months.

Yes, but since they have already begun on the furniture, you will need to train them out of it.

Find your best cat treat, (for our cat it is dried strips of beef) We began by placing the treat on the scratching post - or hiding them if possible. When the cat uses the scratching post (we have three different ones in the house, and they all see use). When cat uses the scratching post - praise and a treat. Uses furniture? Water gun NEAR the cat. (intentional miss)

The goal is a positive connection to the desired behaviour, and a neutral to negative for undesired. We had to go neutral because our cat is a rescue and pretty anxious. We didn't want to add to it. Now she doesn't use the couches at all, and runs to the scratching post when we enter the room and shows us she is using the post so she'll get a treat.
