when I was a kid, I barely cook. I think in my family, my mom cook often, quite a few time I would help her washes dishes,
I used to live in Shanghai for ten years, at that time we (me and my wife) order delivery food almost every day. not because we were lazy. It’s the room we used to rent to very small it's hard to cook. Before we moved to the US, she told me we need to cook more often after we live here, to be honest, the food we used to order in shanghai is not good all the time, the picture on the app sometimes is quite different from the food, and because the delivery guy lost their way. when the food is arriving, sometime is already cold.
In China order food online don't need to give tips, but need pay the delivery fee.
after I arrived here, frankly cook every day is a challenge for me, I’m getting better now when I at home by myself I cook rice all the time. I guess that's the food I'm good at cooking and also the convenient noodles.

Today I took the driving test (road test) and I didn't pass, though I felt little bad it's helping me to learn, the segment of knowledge that I need improving, I wasn't a good start frankly, he asked me to take the window down before he went in the car, and I was stuck because it wasn't my car I didn't know which button to press, the atmosphere start become a little awkward, and he asked me to turn on the high beam, I didn't go smoothly. the parallel parking is successful, but on the road text he asked me to follow the ***road which I should go to the left lane, I didn't understand at that time, and also I didn't ask him like what you mean, should I go to the left lane? The other reason is there is one time I turn on the light too late (before you turn the signal light).
what I learned is I should ask if I wasn't sure what they mean, instead continue the wrong way and turn the light earlier.
it's a good lesson.!

A Begginer's Guide to Mastodon - LifeHacker Guide, link 

Another user here had posted a link to this - it was on my open, To Read tabs and now I have checked it out. RECOMMENDED!!

And it's a Good Guide! Even after been using the fediverse pretty intensively for the past week, I learned a few things.

Like, what's the result of selecting UNLISTED as the privacy setting for a toot? (it does not show on the public Feed lists, as expected. However it DOES show in your own profile page! 😞 )

Last night I had a dream about I went go high school to study again, on the final exam(like SAT) I did not a bad job and then think about which university to go to after I woke up I was happy it just a dream 😬😬

Holy criminies. The instance has seen over a **thousand** new users this week and its only half way through the week.

What a week!

I find it interesting how the spike always appears to come as 2 seperate waves when we get spikes of new users. The first one when they pour into the fediverse, then a second spike when new users not on QOTO decide to switch to our instance. We must be doing something right :)

i was thinking speaking English all the time here, but i guess well just be myself. 🌏

作為曾經短暫站在教育前線的一名教師,我真的很氣李佳芬「14歲前不該教孩子認識如何使用身體」這句話
你一定不知道有不少孩子在上這類課程後,才發現自己可能被性騷擾性侵害
這類課程是多麼重要,而且說不定可以避免一些不幸的事發生,卻因你這句抹煞掉教育工作者的苦心

I was thinking an ideal that is I put some Chinese idiom here and welcome everyone to guess the meaning of them. I will give the translation of them after 48 hours. (the answer will be my translation from my own)
1. 三心二意;
2. 千钧一发;
3. 对牛弹琴;
4. 口是心非;
5. 死马当活马医;
6. 人山人海;
7. 四面八方;
