The joke is that from the flip side maybe he just married her for her washer and dryer. I’m not saying it’s a good joke, but I don’t think it’s bad enough to merit that many downvotes 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hmmmm, okay well probably not that then

trying to get in shape

Doing what? These look very similar to the bruises my wife gets working out.

Did you lift weights the day before? Perhaps with dumbbells?

Okay that’s pretty fucking cool I wanna steal it. The idea I mean, not the movies

Yessir! Also note that there’s an animals category that has a cat or two as well, but the one you reference is the one that serves as my personal desktop homey.

OKAY OKAY HERE YOU GO.

Geez

I tried to upload a screenshot but it keeps throwing an error. Here’s a link to it from their web Site.

I got bored but then I noticed almost immediately how I spend so much extra time just navigating my phone on other launchers. So I switched back and then they released a wallpaper that has a fun cat in it and now he’s my home screen homey and I’m good

I got married, then got fat, then got sick of being fat and got unfat, then got married again. Two anniversaries wooooooo!

Your first download should be a guide on punctuation my brother.

If not Threads, how do we turn this FOSS venture free of corporate interference into a new avenue for a mega corporation to harvest all of our data for profit?

If not Threads, how will we ever ruin this place by turning it into Reddit?

If not Threads, who will I shill for?

Picking a better instance for your main is most advisable. Users can accept that the primary benefit of a free and open source federated service can also sometimes inconvenience them, or they cannot. Complaining about the core mechanic of the technology that literally cannot change is silly IMO. Corporate owned centralization leads to enshittification. Your account age indicates that you know that first hand.

Reddit syndrome still affects a lot of users here, who view having multiple accounts on different answers as an inconvenience instead of a feature of the platform design. The irony is that tons of users on Reddit had lots of accounts without batting an eye, but that extra step of having to lick a new instance is just SO complicated.

Okay yes that’s what I remember reading. I have Express VPN now, and while researching found it’s still surprisingly highly and doesn’t log. it’s on the more expensive side though, so I may still give proton or one of the other recs a try.

Same, I used to use PIA for about a decade, but I could’ve sworn I heard they were one of the ones that had gone way downhill. Otherwise I never had an issue with them. I’ll have to do some digging, see if it was founded or just a reddit rumor.

Oh nice thanks for that. So should I not worry as much about seeding the private trackers?

Yo! What exactly is different about private trackers? Like how does that help? Im lucky enough to have one but due to the seed ratio rules, I find myself downloading from my usual sites more frequently because I worry about seeding indefinitely.

Yo! What’s a proper VPN these days? It seems like all the ones I used to trust went to shit.

Use a calorie counting app like lose it. Log everything you eat. It’s very tedious at first but pretty soon you get really good at judging how many calories are in things. Don’t stop logging! Track your weight. When you hit plateaus zoom out on the time scale and look at your trend line going down and feel good about yourself.

The trick is being honest with yourself. There are no free calories. Those 2-3 little cookies you had at work? They count. The extra scoop of rice? That counts. Most people have no concept of how many excess calories they’re really taking in.

Over COVID lockdown my wife and I both gained 10-15 pounds and I was already a good 20 pounds over where I wanted to be. We both started this and never stopped. I lost 40 pounds in about 9 months (230 to 185) , she lost 20, 155 to 134, and we’ve both kept it off for the last three years. We log all our meals and we exercise. Exercise becomes rewarding because burning extra means you can cheat! Did you bike twenty miles today? HAVE YOU A FUCKIN DONUT THEN!
