i need to look through my old electronics...

The problem is that moderators here and on reddit (i believe?) are volunteers, so they are going to have personal limits on what they'll accept. And if they can't have those, they won't do it. Someone else will have to volunteer for an unpaid position that can take up lots of their precious time on this earth.

Start a mod fund and pay people, is my suggestion. The only rewards at the moment for moderating are, like, a smoothly running community. Tiny, mostly irrelevant power. Being a big fish in a small pond. Personal satisfaction? You can get that being treasurer at your local beading club, but there you get to mess around with beads. I dunno.

As for making different platforms, there also has to be someone willing to do that work. Mostly thankless, and you'll always get it wrong somehow. I'm amazed anyone bothers.

I'm not really confused by them commissioning music. I've seen like, murals and so on in airports. I also like the idea of using recordings of background noise to make a track. It's the idea of playing ambient airport noises in an airport that confuses me. But that's art, I suppose. Something to think about. I don't think me being confused by the thought process here - knowing very little about the theory being ambient music - is a sign of the death of an empire. There's plenty of those around.

All items are clothes if you're imaginative enough?

Now I want a whole birth month chart of these

Game cube, if I'm remembering right.

It feels like companies like this eventually become vehicles for like 5 people to make lots of money. You can't let go the guy making these mistakes - lining his pocket is the purpose of the company! It'd be ridiculous to fire him! Unless some of the other 4 people making money decide he's keeping them from lining their pockets.

The vagueness of these posts get to me a bit. Do they like clean sheets cause they feel nice, or do they change their sheets in the middle of the night because they might've sweat on them and they can't stop thinking about it? People use OCD too casually, but people also take someone talking about their illness, latch onto the part easiest to minimize, and run with it.

If you think you might have OCD, get diagnosed and get care if you can, but if that's not possible, find some legitimate, useful advice from reputable sources.

If you can't stop thinking that you're probably faking, it doesn't hurt people who have been diagnosed for you to take some books out of the library and find out if the advice helps you. In fact, it lets the library know those resources are in demand so they'll be there for others, later.

There's a vet around me that has a huge animal statue out front that they decorate for the holidays.

Her symptoms were similar to mine when I had anemia last year. I remember being like "maybe this is what getting old is like" and then I had a routine physical and whoops my vitamin d and iron were in the shitter.

I think if you're in your 40s and experiencing brain fog, memory problems, muscle loss, you should not just assume it's normal aging. But there are a lot of things it could be. It's useful to know it might be hormones, sure! Maybe people who don't get anemia are living life on easy mode, but I don't know how much I should generalize from my experience.

The comments on that article from trans women who experienced similar positive changes from taking estrogen make me think it's a very complicated issue and people might have different solutions to similar problems. But it might still be useful to give it a shot. Just, no guarentees. Someone said that T and E aren't exactly opposites, like men and women aren't really opposites.
