  • New Outlook is such a pieceof shit.

    Want to view mail headers to check if the mail is legit? Though tits, bro, no can do. Either save the mail as .eml and open it in a notes app or switch back to Outlook Classic.

    Want to run a rule manually, but have notifications for it turned on? Lmao, are you stupid? You can’t do that. This particular bug has been reported over a year ago and they still haven’t fixed it.

    I fucking hate working with this piece of shit and other Micro$lop products.







  • Aww, I’ve seen only a couple fireflies this year, but I guess that’s to be expected in a city. I don’t generally mind other bugs and spiders, I just relocate them (or turn them into a pancake if it’s a mosquito). Just the other day I had to rescue two larger spiders that couldn’t climb out of our kitchen sink. I don’t like them crawling on me, it’s just a lizard brain reflex, but spiders are cool otherwise.

    Roaches on the other hand… they’re too fast and they only appear if there’s something nasty going on. In this case, our ex-neighbor would leave food leftovers on the balcony table to marinate for over a week. She kicked out a rug on the balcony that her cat pissed all over and it stank for well over a week of cat piss. Don’t think she ever cleaned that up. She also leaves her cat for weeks alone when she’s gone, so I’m gonna assume the place on the inside also gets nasty.

    YMMV. Therapists provided by the socialized healthcare usually suck. They are either borderline uninterested, prejudiced or are incompatible with the patient. And waiting for an appointment — that will most likely end up in disappointment at best or make you feel even more like crap at worst — usually takes months. Mental healthcare is still pretty shit. Well, healthcare in general. I’ve had to pay out of pocket many times in hopes of finding doctors who actually give a shit or aren’t absolute morons.


  • (Past the actual joke in the meme)

    Same here. It’s why I can’t get through books with lots of descriptions of environment or characters. It takes a lot of brain power to visualize and it’s just the specific word I’m reading at the moment, divorced from the entire description (e.g. character descriptions, I can blurrily/faintly imagine just the eyes, then just the hair and it evaporates quickly). I’m jealous of people who can actually play movies in their head.



  • I think it’s been proven sugar is literally an addictive substance; it’s hard to say no when it’s not your rational mind in control.

    A coworker at my previous work laughed when I said I’m addicted to sugar in the similar way he’s addicted to cigarettes. Most people seem to be ignorant about it.

    I come from an ethnicity of starvation and poverty, and there’s growing research showing that diabetes actually used to be a protective adaptation.

    In a similar vein this is why island nations have the highest rate of obesity. Their metabolism adapted to scarcity. But some people want to convince everyone that it’s as simple as calories-in-calories-out, as if every body works the same…
