@NanoRaptor @JennyFluff with time-release, watch out for long term symptoms of sleep deprivation etc. i switched from regular ritalin (which i’d taken for years) to vyvanse + dex a few years back and it was great (much better than rit) for a few months, but then slowly i started getting audio hallucinations + paranoia. thankfully they faded after switching back to “inferior” ritalin!

you guys know brain worms are not particularly rare, right? there’s a non-zero chance you yourself have had one, especially if you ever ate food prepared by ppl who ever go to tropical countries. tapeworm and hookworm are super common culprits, but others too

found an old photo of myself from back when we were recording the false heroics “salvation navy” album. i miss that cardigan!

@mike i wouldnt choose it, for sure! thankfully the team i do web dev/IT work for recently switched from asana to notion! i've been running a notion kanban in parallel to whatever other software my teams have used to keep things straight for myself for ~6yr now, so i'm a happy clam

guess my photo of the dosa didn’t get uploaded somehow. check out this big ol fella!

@mike asana’s not great, but it’s far from the worst! i speak as someone who has been on teams using everything from wrike to teamwork projects to jira to airtable

4 foot dosa @ rangoli for my sister’s birthday — pretty good!

Discussion of rap beef + child abuse. Seriously you don't need to read this. It's bad. 

Trash. Absolute trash.

You can't bring up the fact that someone spoke about being abused as a child, as ammunition in a rap beef. This will upset a lot of people. I said that there were some things that can't be unsaid.

Some of y'all know that in California prisons, child abusers and sex offenders experience extreme violence. But people don't talk about why: a very high percentage of gang youth, are survivors

@ambihelical @levisan same here! some guy in central europe who is into gaming and online gambling often uses my main gmail as his address. it's even set as the fallback for if he cant get into his google account!

@levisan yeah, some places are worse than others i'm sure

@levisan yeah, though in reality it could go either way. i take it as a sign i shouldnt be offended if they dont accept my follow, but not that i should avoid even requesting it

@levisan i dunno, i kinda like it when you can see how the local greenery is. ideally you could swap between time of year though, but a lot of places are significantly uglier in winter

@levisan i think a lot of time it's just privacy orientation — someone who wants to feel free to post what they like on the account without mystery strangers following along. (esp if they or someone close to them has been burned by creeps/stalkers before)
