@bobwiley also a bit click baitey, but I also found an article of why he left Hollywood :( https://www.today.com/popculture/movies/mean-girls-rajiv-surendra-reason-he-left-hollywood-rcna69448

Seems like he's still doing what he loves though and enjoys it.

@bobwiley genuinely just spent the last half hour watching this guy wrap presents - he gets so much joy out of it!

Reminds me of the start of every school year: my mom and I would sit and wrap my textbooks up in calendar paper, making sure the nice pictures ended up on the front cover.

Gotta step up my wrapping game now - I don't know if I can commit to tossing all my dept store Christmas wrap yet, but I think it's gonna be butcher paper or those awesome vintage posters for birthdays etc.

@StoneyLogica1 you get bonus gems for podium?!?!!

@Tini @StoneyLogica1 wait is that how that works? If you get first you stay in diamond? I've been bouncing around obsidian and diamond these past few weeks based on my level of motivation (and the number of 2x boosts I get)

@UsernameLost @ericbomb glad you were able to push past the doubts and treat yourself. Hopefully all the cool projects that come out of it will prove it's worth even more for you :) (and don't chop your finger off pls)

@bobwiley @ericbomb I think you just blew my mind a little. I've never thought of it that way before.

As someone who loves wrapping (my and anyone else's who will let me) gifts around Christmastime, I think I'll try doing just ribbons this year.

Any pictures of how it turned out?

@Moobythegoldensock @ericbomb that's amazing!!! I hope you keep it up :) starting a new habit like that and keeping it consistent ain't easy - glad you're nailing it so far.

@notatoad @Moc some plant and mushroom types really thrive in post-fire environments. I wonder if there's any of them cropping up now

@spittingimage oof just reading that sentence sent a chill down my neck lol tin foil bite no bueno

@Zathras @Lemmylefty I do this too! I find myself interrupting people to finish their sentences at times, or assume I know what they're going to say and think/spit out a response to move the Convo along. After doing some internet research, I'm starting to wonder if it may be a symptom of undiagnosed ADHD or something 🤷 might be worth taking a look into and asking a professional

@wesker @Lemmylefty I find this happening in phone call convos w friends at times. They'll tell me things that are going on in their lives that may not be 'ooh interesting' but that I enjoy hearing about/reflecting upon with them. But I don't always have feedback or insights or questions to ask etc, so as I'm thinking of something to say, the Convo veers off to some other topic, maybe with the impression given that I'm not interested, which is definitely not the intention

@WetAndFlummoxed @TootSweet drives me nuts at self serve places when you take a glass, put it under the water dispenser, then see bubbles still floating around after the cup is full. Tap water bubbles last like less than half a second. If I see what I think could be soap bubbles, I dump, rinse, repeat til no more bubbles.

@foggenbooty @Toto be brave! And honest ... Everyone who picks their nose raise your hand

🙋‍♀️

@spittingimage interesting! I find that 'snick' sound actually satisfying lol

@tictac2 as someone with sensitive teeth, seeing anyone take a BITE out of their ice cream instead of licking it. 🙈

@beefbaby182 did an audiobook of The Red Queen (Juan Gómez-Jurado) which was a fun murder mystery. At the end it had an interview between the author and narrator (Scott Brick), which led me to Bricks other narrations (he's got a wonderful voice and believable accents) - The Omega Factor (Steve Berry) was next. Hoping it will keep leading me on these novels set in other countries - pretty cool to get a taste of cultures alongside a good story

@Albbi @IronRain found out about Wheel of Time from Tumblr of all places. Started the audiobook series as something to accompany me on long drives or workouts but they keep being checked out at my library app lol. Was interesting to me that you could tell it was written a few decades ago - some of the writing seems a bit dated even though altogether it's a very well-structured series.

Also absolutely loved Red Rising, didn't realize there was a new addition!

@ericbomb they didn't 🙃🥲

Honors college students, too. I have a few stories like this from my time living with them that still bring a 🙃🥲 to my face lol

@ericbomb had roommates in college to whom mopping was just rearranging dirt on the floor.

Step 1. Get the mop wet in the bucket
Step 2. Mop the entire first floor
Step 3. Move to the next floor

No rinsing, no emptying/refilling the bucket (because hey, it never got dirty!). All grime just got wiped up, and moved around to the kitchen, living room, entryway, hallways etc. God forbid we had a party and beer got spilled in the basement. I'd be smelling it upstairs by the bedroom for weeks.

@ThornyThicket @qooqie
I could be wrong but this sounds surprisingly like the "I don't actually need it, I can quit at any time, I just don't want to" trope.
Just put of curiosity if you switched to decaff for a month or something would you notice or feel any difference?

I'm not a coffee drinker so I don't really know what it's like. (I'll do tea every now and again but nothing daily or multiple times a day)
