I’ve been reading books by Gabor Mate - recently finished When The Body Says No and almost done In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts. Lots of stories and insights into how others cope with what has happened to them. It helps to look at your own experience and coping through a new lens.

I wonder if anyone has had any experience using psychedelics in therapy? Not sure if this was in one of these books or if I read about this elsewhere.

Marshall Mattress. I prefer the tight top - it sleeps cool and you can flip it. Mine is nice and firm, but they do have softer ones.

Godot.

It’s definitely underfunded as others have said, but I will also add this - I had the opportunity on Saturday this past weekend to spend some time in the local emergency room due to a sports related injury. I got X-rays and a CT scan done and saw a Dr. And the cost to me personally was about 6 hours. The waiting was a bit long but I brought a book and some snacks, and everyone was super nice.

Try a residue free detergent like Atsko Sport-Wash Laundry Detergent.

“Would you recommend this to a parallel universe instance of yourself in a similar situation, who is not yet decided on a purchase?”

Haha you’re right, it probably doesn’t really apply to most things. I do get asked what I recommend more than the average person because my friends and family know I research purchases too much. I hate buying junk.

This is good. I would consider adding “Would you recommend to a friend” but that may be redundant given what you have already.

My favorite is the one star review when it’s a shipping issue. “Look at this, the box is ripped!”

I think the decentralized but moderated review network is the most important part. I like the idea of local shop keepers with specialized knowledge (I’m thinking of my local goto kitchen store) or just online experts (like the folks at whathifi). I like to research a bit (a lot really) before I decide what to buy and a resource like this would be invaluable. Finding it locally after deciding what to buy can be an issue (especially if you are not in the US), but this aspect could be separate, as is shipping.

Yup. This article explains it well: https://macrofactorapp.com/recomposition

Asking a dog owner to use their leash rather than letting their dog walk up to you or your kids.

Awesome. I’m a 40/-40 runner.

I think the solution for those against defederating with meta is to have accounts on instances in both fediverses and merge the feeds.

Ok, thanks! I had not yet tried the feature.
