Hypothesis: larger phone screens have lead to the increase in phone addiction. More screen real estate leads to more content consumption. Small screens provide a sort of friction that discourages extended use.

‪Like scary stories? Here’s a cool one. Plus, it’s a good example of an LGBT main character outside a “coming out” and/or “romantic” subplot! (Content warning: scenes of blood, bodies, mutilation, supernatural events, and one use of a gun) https://youtu.be/IRctX8xYraQ‬

Oof! Ouch! Owie! My both leg bones

Here’s hoping I break a leg or two!

I just went to drink a cup of water and missed my mouth while watching a video about proprioception... ironic, lol

Is Australian breakfast just dinner?

Check out this thing I did! Got the innards of a 2009 MacBook inside a black 2007 model and got macOS Mojave running on it. Learned a bit about hardware and how to use a dremel. That was fun 🙂

You know that feeling when you’ve been sitting still on an airplane for far too long and you’re legs get uncomfortable?

@Alonealastalovedalongthe Yeah, it can be. I have MDO and GAD, and I know it was hard for some of my SOs to manage my real lows. I’m doing a lot better now with regular therapy and medication, so here’s hoping the next SO will have a much easier time with my lows. The only advice I can think of is to be compassionate, understanding, and willing and ready to just spend time in bed, or on the couch, or on the floor together for moral support
