Yes same! My appointment was so sudden - quickly shaved 30 minutes before going with no other prep. I was honestly surprised how much it didn’t hurt. They did explain that their laser had a fancy cooling tech which I definitely felt working. The first few times I tried to shave after were strange! My razor just wasn’t cutting the hairs since I don’t think they were really rooted. I learned that it’s pretty common, but no one really explained that to me!

It was my go to launcher for years, but this weekend I decided it was time to see what else there was. I ended up on Niagara Launcher and have been liking it! Took about a day to get used to it- it’s definitely different. There’s not really an app drawer, and as far as I can tell there’s only one home screen and one place for widgets (you can have more than one, but you flip through them). I like how simple it is and how quickly I can get to everything.

I feel that! I ended up buying the premium license. I figure if I use it as long as I use Nova, it’ll pay for itself. Also will hopefully help the creator and prevent them from selling it to some advertising firm.

They must have changed it! There was the option for a monthly subscription as well as a lifetime purchase.

Been all about this recently. Somehow feeling both under and overstimulated by everything.

The thing I want natively is a built-in way to control volume per tab- not just mute, not through a plugin… Just a simple volume slider that works.

Just a friend Discord server and a private IG account I use exclusively to follow a few fashion subcultures I like which don’t have a presence in the US; best way to get inspiration and find out when there’re new releases… definitely have fallen victim to targeted ads, but that’s how I want my ads- actually relevant.

Maybe dark boho or boho witch/goth… Kind of feels too simple for that though (not in a bad way, just missing some details that I would look for in those)

There’s a social spectrum. There are varying levels of asocial- one being demisocial. Demisocial people want interaction, but normally with a close few people that they have a strong bond with. Put someone who is on the asocial side in a large group and they’ll get overstimulated and overwhelmed. It takes time to figure out your social tolerance and what pushes you over the edge. Some people will encourage asocial people to desensitize themselves by forcing themselves into social situations, but that can be extremely unhealthy for them and lead to burnout. There’s nothing wrong with anyone who doesn’t like huge social settings… Some people just don’t like accommodating others so they make it a you problem. Finding your people can be hard and lonely, but it’s far more fulfilling when you do.

I could be super wrong, but I don’t think people who purchase music think about the value of those songs in that way anymore. Some people buy songs for the physical display of the package, the potentially higher quality playback, to avoid music from disappearing due to copyright or label issues, to support an artist since streaming is like fractions of a penny, for offline listening which isn’t tied to a subscription feature, just for collections sake, for more emotional reasons - physically connecting with a song/album, to justify their recent impulse record player purchase, etc. Sometimes people just want to spend money (retail therapy), so they’ll buy an album (digital or physical), never open it, and just keep streaming.
