I totally feel this among small communities too. If you’re gonna be scathing and demeaning in a small community, you’re gonna run out of people to talk to real fast

- Comment on What is my character's personality? I'm doing a writing thing and I need to list off words to describe her. 6 days ago:
*Condescending towards younger people? *Belittling?
*Judgemental af, in the sense that whatever molded her was so negatively critical, it’s ingrained in her personality that it’s normal to judge herself and others based on every little misstep?
Since you mentioned a birthday, maybe borrow adjectives from zodiacs?
spoiler
Also, even tho you didn’t ask for this, but because you mentioned she’s a character in a story, and because other comments also vibe with my first impression of “Idk, sounds like an asshole with random facts sprinkled on,” consider looking up “save the cat”? Note that the thing that makes a character likeable is their choice to actively do a good deed for some extrinsic reason. Example: A train operator on a moving train sees someone tied to the tracks. They pull the brakes. The train stops, and the victim is saved. Meh. What a norm-core thing to do because it barely seemed like they had a choice. If someone else were with them saying “oh my god, if we hit the brakes now, we could derail!”, and the operator low-key knows this and immediately pulls the brakes anyway - that’s cool, because they had a choice, and they chose to do something difficult but good for someone else. Or a person being an asshole in general and poor, but still paying for the dude in front’s groceries when their debit card declines. That’s cool.
Or person going out of their way to cheer up their friend that they noticed was almost too good at masking chronic depression. That’s cool, too. Dr. House without his medical malpractice shenanigans to actively help strangers is just an asshole. …If all this was ultimately excessive and unnecessary for someone else, at least this has been an exercise for me think up save the cat examples. I hope these spoiler tags work. Ta - Comment on Breaking: BAD 1 week ago:

I stopped halfway through Resident Alien just to start over from the beginning to try & clip funny moments, and damn
I forgot that Alan Tudyk was not a complete hoot in the first episode. Just my take, I think he really found his character’s voice another episode or two in once Harry was more confident in himself around humans.

I’m crying inside 'cause I heard something along these lines in some random blog/post/idr. :c
I want it to end in a good place & at the right time before it grows a GoT season 8.

It counts the keyboard taps & cursor clicks (optional) that you make, and your desktop pet cat taps whenever you type/click. As a reward for your tippity tappity productivity, you periodically get random cat costumes and skins. You can also buy/sell the costumes & reskins on the steam community marketplace.
It doesn’t work on Linux for me (mint btw), but I use it on my school laptop
I’m not sure how segregation/listening of inputs works between software in Linux, but if there’s a way around it to get bongo cat to work… 👉👈
- Comment on If you had too, how would go about running a Instagram account? 2 months ago:
Ohhh, I read your concern as how to grow in popularity, but… I can’t read @.@
I think Litchralee pretty much detailed what I’d do. Use a separate phone, or ig in a browser. My bf had a yolo tablet once, to show his niece how easily “popular” he can get just by posting random cat memes. We learned that if you follow too many accounts at once or get too many follows quickly, they’ll block your account until you do a facial scan, so… That was the end of that experiment, lmao.
If you find the people you meet are using bluesky, I can… with hesitancy… recommend wafrn? I only hesitate because the design intent is like tumblr, and I’m not sure if that’s your vibe. It’s activitypub and atproto compatible, so you can share your one account with both bluesky and fediverse users. You can even spin up your own wafrn instance.
For situational awareness, the alt-text requirement for photos is on by default, but you can turn that off in your wafrn account.

If you’re in an urban kinda area, have you considered going to car meets and exchanging Instagram @s ?
Might be helpful to get your insta out there by going where the people already are.Most if not all my local car meets all advertise their next meet up spot on insta either plainly or by code name. I didn’t even post car pics, but organizers here (hawaii :) will follow anyone back, especially if they post car stuff.

It’d be on brand then - if they asked AI to write out an argument for them, they’d take credit for the whole essay & if found out, they’d claim it was what they wanted to convey anyway

My lil neato bot from 2017/2018ish makes a perimeter map around my place each time it deploys, then makes back and forth sweeps. It’s got a built in weekly timer by the quarter hour to schedule sweeps. It beeps at me when its bin is full. Why do robot vacuums need the internet?

Think of self-hosting as - instead of depending on cloud services from other entities (google/apple/whoever), you host those services yourself by running them on your own pc or maybe your secondary pc running 24/7 (usually locally, in your own home).
Some common services might be automatic photo backup and storage (like immich), or running an adblocker for your home network, or streaming movie/music from your hard drive to your phone/TV (like jellyfin).
