  • My mother is like this. She will never be happy and is addicted to being a victim. My mother actually pulled the victim card during Covid because her work was paying her to not work but she had to call every morning in case they needed her. She said it was worse having to call in the morning rather than work so was basically a victim because she got free paid time off while lots of people had lost all of their income.

    Nothing you do will make this woman happy. Don’t try and be more friendly to her because it doesn’t matter. Better to act disinterested in everything she says and don’t answer personal questions she can twist and gossip about to other people.








  • This is the first time I’ve seen this one. Best result I saw from 30 seconds of googling:

    In 2020, the National Runaway Safeline (NRS) began using LGBTQIA2S+ to recognize those who identify as “Two-Spirit.” This phrase refers to people who identify as having both a masculine and feminine spirit, and is used by some Indigenous and Native communities.

    “Two-Spirit” describes the cultural-specific understanding for the diverse gender traditions of Indigenous and Native people. Historically, Two-Spirit people were among the most respected in their communities, often serving as community healers, ceremonial leaders or caregivers to the elderly or orphaned children. This is consistent across many cultures who experienced extreme oppression and intergenerational trauma through periods of colonization. Today, young people who identify as Two-Spirit may suffer from inequalities perpetuated by a legacy of discriminatory laws and policies.

  • I stick with hue. Every other brand I tried dies. Recently I’ve had one sengled zigbee bulb start flashing between color temperatures and another start blinking on and off. Haven’t had a hue bulb die in the 5 years I’ve been using them.

    I hear good things about ikea but haven’t tried them. I’m disappointed my sengled bulb went because they’re the brightest zigbee bulbs I’ve found.

    I had some crappy Tuya bulbs and they all started doing the flashing between color temperatures thing too. I use the adaptive lighting integration and I think that somehow causes it but it’s the bulb itself actually doing the flashing now.
