I mostly make chocolate based candies, but I dabble in other candies from time to time like caramels, candied nuts, candied fruits/ginger/etc. I like to make candies around Christmas time to give to family and friends as they make really nice gifts.

It’s really all going to depend on your tastes and lifestyle. Like I could recommend that you get a dog and start learning how to train dogs as a hobby, but that’s just not going to work for everyone. What’s important is that you explore things and maybe even try some hobbies that could potentially improve your well-being. Maybe you live somewhere near a good hiking spot and you could take up hiking to get outdoors and get more exercise. Maybe you could learn how to cook and explore how to make healthy meals that suit you better. Or maybe you just want to create something and you could take up woodworking or make model planes or something. The possibilities are endless, you just need to decide what you’d like to get out of it.
Personally, I spend most of my time for work indoors on a computer, so most of my hobbies involve using my hands and getting outdoors. I took up a lot of extra hobbies during covid for obvious reasons. So here goes my list of >!hobbies that will maybe give you some ideas:
Other things I’ve considered taking up but haven’t for various reasons:
I had known for a long time that I wanted to do something creative. Throughout highschool I was lucky enough to be able to take various classes that would allow me to try out different things. I ruled out music and was struggling to decide if I wanted to be an illustrator of some kind or an interior designer or maybe an architect? But then I took a class called “computer graphics” which was a stupid name for the class. It was actually a class about graphic design and it seemed to fit into everything I do well just perfectly. Looking back it was way more obvious that I should be a graphic designer as I used to do things for fun like doodle out magazine layouts and make weird computer art for icons and things back when that was how the Internet worked. Like what kind of kid does that for fun? A future graphic designer apparently.
Do I look like I know what a OneDrive is?
Jewel, I’ll give you my fitness data when you clean up whatever has been reeking in the potato aisle for the last 3 months. What a trash ass grocery store.
“in seconds.” Ah yes, clearly the best point made for this product.
I was going to say something similar. Nobody sells small cars anymore. And if they do, they try as hard as they can to get you to buy something else. I’m currently trying to buy a Prius and I have one on hold, but it won’t be available for months and when we went to various dealers, they just didn’t have any to test drive and instead wanted us to test drive their SUVs. I’ve never wanted a large car. In fact, I would prefer if my next car was a small electric hatchback, but they just don’t sell that here in the US.
Well for some… It’s a thing you put fireworks into…
While I think this is a step in the right direction, I don’t think it’s fair to put this on the grocers that didn’t do anything wrong. This should be a labeling requirement for the manufacturer that’s doing it. So instead of the one doing the harm having to take the brunt of the cost for doing it in the first place, instead the grocer has to take the time and money to do it and also keep up with any new changes. Again, step in the right direction. Never let perfect be the enemy of good.
Last year I went blueberry picking the day before I had to leave for vacation. So I took a quart-size bag of blueberries on the plane with me and ate those the whole way there. 10/10 best plane snack I’ve ever had!
Hey everyone! Come fuck my shit up while I’m away! K thanx.
This movie is less about being mad at Nazis and more of making you look deep inside yourself and ask if you wouldn’t have done something similar. It’s more about watching regular people live their lives and they just happen to be Nazis who are heavily involved in the Holocaust. A particular scene I think about a lot involves a board room where people are talking about seemingly normal business activities like funding and logistics. Except they’re actually talking about how to build Auschwitz… but it seems eerily similar to any normal business meeting you might imagine today. That’s what makes this movie so good and so different from most other Holocaust movies. Highly recommend.
Have you seen the movie Zone of Interest? That scene got me. Actually every scene got me. It’s just a hauntingly good movie.
I work for one of the largest health care companies in the US and I can attest that they are genuinely concerned with what Amazon is doing right now.
If you are under 18 then you are considered a “child” in labor terms. Different states have different laws about people under 18 and work eligibility. In Illinois, I was able to get a job at 15 with a work permit that my school had to sign and very strict rules about what I can and cannot do. They were allowed to pay me less than minimum wage as long as they followed those rules. I don’t think it’s wrong to let teens get jobs and start learning how the working world works and also make a bit of money for whatever they might use it on. But um… Maybe they deserve a lunch break?
This is the last one for a very long time. But the next 20 years it looks like Australia is going to be doing all the hogging.
We have it on lemmy, but it’s not very active :'(
Oh shit I thought this was vexillologycirclejerk for a sec. That’s a good one tho.
I love Lemmy’s love for Technology Connections. It just feels so right!
