It’s busy but it looks similar to how I’ve been wanting to set up my home screen for ages. I have the standard grid right now but I took a look at some widgets and I’m having a vision of a brighter future lol. Redoing my home screen will be my self-care activity this weekend haha

I feel like there are kinder ways to express your opinion than to say “ew” about something someone made for themselves…

said by someone with no taste smh

Psychologist, work in schools. I feel like I’m slightly more tech-inclined than my peers but idk

I don’t care for debate so I’m just gonna share this tofu stir-fry recipe I like. I sub gochujang for the sambal oelek and skip the peanut garnish

Plant-based meat has been a thing for a hot minute so I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make

edit: for chicken nugget enjoyers, I like the morningstar farms equivalent. Pop in the toaster over/air fryer, coat in sweet & sour or orange sauce, put on a bed of rice, + sprinkle some sesame seeds on top. ooh that shit’s so good

Yup, this is the reason.

are you upset about the phrase “yuck my yum” or them trashing your food, period? I mean both are mildly infuriating to me but I’m curious

edit: added much-needed comma.

Also, I’ve only ever heard this in the context of food (hence the “yum”) but I see it’s also used for other things? Which is awful, because “yum” should absolutely never refer to anything other than food

I hate how awful yet ubiquitous it is. Depending on your demographic, not having it can mean you miss out on a lot of pop culture and sort of get left behind.

I’m probably in the like 2nd most targeted demographic, so all my friends are on TT and all the trending things related to our hobbies are on there. I constantly feel left out because I’m missing 99% of the content. And it’s hard because I want to have dumb conversations about pop culture and hobbies with my friends, but I refuse to download it. It makes me so sad. It’s very isolating

If I get bored, I drop it. Maybe I miss out on some gems that ‘get good after the 7th chapter’ or whatever, but I’m not fussed

Could be the first chapter, ¾ through the book, halfway through a series… If I’m bored I’m out lol

I’m not great with math so please let me know if I’m understanding this right:

1. Company has 100 employees
2. All 100 employees quit
3. Company gets 100 new employees as replacement

= 100% turnover rate

Then…

4. Company has the 100 new employees
5. 50 of the new employees quit
6. Company gets 50 new employees as replacement

= 150% turnover rate

and so on?

how can you have a turnover rate over 100%?

One time I shared an Airbnb to try to cut costs on a trip. I got there around 4pm and hated it so much that by noon the next day I had already booked a hotel.

I just do king suites now since they’re about the same price as a double but include free breakfast, a kitchenette, extra pullout couch, etc. Cheaper than an Airbnb with the same (or more) amenities.

Terrifying, thank you!

Ahh I see. Or don’t, actually lol. It’s just blank for me, not showing the [obj] symbol

I don’t see one at the end of their comment, but they have a cherry blossom at the end of their display name if that’s what you meant?

(not what you meant!)

Sort of tangentially related to this… Today I was telling my mom about something I bought and I mentioned the brand + a general description of the item. About an hour later, she showed me a screenshot of her Facebook feed with an ad for the exact brand and item even though she didn’t google it, etc. Makes me so uncomfortable. I’d feel a lot better if I knew specifically how they were getting the data so I could try to block it.

All good!

i have no idea what y’all are referencing and it’s making this 10x creepier

edit: a dude from fullmetal alchemist turned his daughter into a chimera, which the op bears a remarkable resemblance to

Perhaps that’s why they said

Zoomers overall

Also not sure what’s so inconsiderate about their comment. I feel like it’s pretty widely accepted that zoomers generally don’t have the same tech problem-solving skills that many gen x/y people do. No one’s claiming they’re dumb. It’s a byproduct of growing up with tech that has been designed for simplicity and ease of use.
