We get a meal delivery service each week and they use the giant ice packs. So I’ve taken to just keeping two or three in my freezer and then sleeping with a pack at my feet each night or carrying it in the car while I do errands. And I get fresh ones delivered each week. A nice way to recycle the packs
I’ve always disliked plastic surgery, botox and heavy makeup. But that’s normal enough
My real hot take is I am disgusted by long, fake nails. They make my skin crawl. They’re so cumbersome, I truly don’t understand how people love with them
Edit: Thread is locked; it somewhat spiraled from what I originally envisioned for the discussion. Just wanted to dump by thoughts in this edit.
I created the thread from a perspective more of pointing out things people do to their bodies in the name of “fashion” or “beauty” that are invasive, cumbersome, or unnecessary, when people should be proud of the bodies they have. Some took this in the same light but others didn’t.
I would have liked to have a whole discussion about it, communicate my perspective a little more clearly, but by the time I came back after work to view the monster I’d created, the thread was locked. It’s a shame that we couldn’t have a more mature and nuanced discussion about what it means to follow a beauty trend to everyone, but I suppose it’s better that rhetoric not escalate
This article was pretty funny. I loved the writing style
As for the subject matter, I have never understood these mods. When I was young I gave them a try in Skyrim but I remember it just being distracting. It feels like multitasking: I’m doing two things half as good. I really don’t see the point.
So that being said, I would love it if they had metrics on how long the mod stayed installed and how far into the game the player made it. Impossible, surely, but it would really clear up for me whether people are genuinely playing the game or whether they’re installing for a level and… Ahem… Moving on to another activity
Depends on your charisma stat…
This some 18INT nerd shit
In my mind, charisma is easily the hardest one to improve. The rest you can grind out or get better with age but Charisma is tough
I think mine would be around average in most:
I would probably focus on Intelligence and Wisdom, but I think having a higher charisma would be also be very nice
My advice would be to treat investing in unique assets - like shares in one company or Cryptos - as gambling: only put in what you’re willing to lose. Anything you can’t afford to lose should be saved or put into index funds with lower risk and volatility.
You just cannot know what an asset will do in 6 months. You can have a really good guess, but at the end of the day it’s still a guess. And that guessing is even more difficult when it’s a non-productive asset like Bitcoin, because then you’re just gambling on vibes. There isn’t much logic to Bitcoin’s price besides “what if” and FOMO.
So yes, if you can afford to lose the money, you can leave it in. But if that money going to zero overnight would impact your quality of life or ability to absorb unexpected expenditures, then liquidate.
And on a more personal note, you’re probably better off having the drone you want than flipping a (digital) coin and hoping it’s heads
It’s comments like this that almost make me miss reddit gold
NordVPN on the same level as Arch? No way
It will be more expensive, for sure, but that’s not even the main problem.
The primary issue is that these tariffs are unpredictable. We don’t know if the Trump administration is going to add more, reduce them, or remove them completely. The administration seems to change their mind every day. Plus, they’re deeply unpopular, so even if the administration were being consistent and clear, they are almost certainly being repealed in four years when a new administration takes over.
So nobody wants to invest in building factories here, because there’s no guarantee that they won’t soon be competing with cheaper labor again in the future. It’s too risky of an investment even if it was cheaper in general
There are classic ones like the Citadel (Mass Effect) or even Halo for the aesthetic beauty, but honestly I think I think it would be extremely serene to go to the cabin from Spirit City: Lofi Sessions. Each time I play that game I find an incredible desire to be in the cabin; my chest honestly tightens each time I think about being in such a relaxed, no-cares place with the perfect decor and perfect weather.
However, assuming this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I would probably pick somewhere unrivaled in beauty or technology (gotta pick up some useful things if I can…). I don’t think my desire for peace and tranquility can outgun the practical part of my brain
I suspected it was a smaller channel, but didn’t look myself. I haven’t heard of them up until this point so this story could be a particularly big opportunity for them, so it makes sense why they are choosing the delivery method that they are
My guy take it down a notch, damn. I’m not calling for his head on a pike, I have legitimate and valid criticisms. I apologize if the tone came off more critical than I meant it but hot hell you came in spicy.
But, to address your issue:
Why does one wrong make a right? Why does him exposing the issue invalidate any criticisms or expectations of quality or integrity? To me it does not, hence why I criticize. And I even said I was glad the information is coming to light, and I’m grateful for him drawing attention to it, I just wish it could have been done a little more tactfully is all. I would like to have all the information right now, rather than waiting for a “part 2”.
I also just don’t appreciate the stoking of anger, which has clearly worked. Ragebait is toxic and that’s what is being done with this story, from my perspective, so I don’t love it.
Sorry, friend. That sounds very toxic. I hope they stop soon
I can only assume your friend is the one who downvoted you
Also, I say “irregardless” when I want to sound like the mobster from It’s Always Sunny in Philidelphia
I’m glad this information is coming to light because I think that it should be fixed, at least as far as the affiliate link piece goes, but I find myself irritated by the sensationalism of the poster.
They’re really pushing to make this seem as evil as possible, and milking it for every drop it’s worth. Making this a two-part series and not exposing it immediately feels super shitty to me.
Just post the full information you have, if this is really so bad, stop trying to farm clips.
Also, not enough focus on the timeline. Honey’s business model has changed dramatically since it was released long ago, and I feel like the part two video is going to complain about the original Honey business model, which was literally just a coupon code aggregator, just based on the “cliffhanger” at the end
He mentions in the video that they stopped advertising that when the BBB brought it up with them.
I think for this story, the timeline is paramount. What Honey used to be compared to what it became are worlds apart. Claims they made when they were just a coupon aggregator should be considered in a different light than claims once they started partnering with vendors
These are “smart” channels that are mostly for entertainment but still teach you at least something:
The outdoor survival ones are new to me, but for some reason I’m really into them.
All I can really say is to avoid the floor models, since they put the hot part of the conditioner inside your home, thus have to work a lot harder
