Specialty coffee. I order whole beans from a roaster I know. It’s $20-25/lb. I could buy grocery store coffee for half that, but it doesn’t taste anywhere close.

You can’t do that on the web client. You have to find another app.

IIRC, it’s slated to be added, but hasn’t been yet.

All our took for me was being too highly paid, I think. Lay offs came and I went. Literally about to present the closing slides for the current phase of a massive project. Was so sure I was safe because of said critical project and was well regarded on my team. (I brought cookies even!) Maybe I was, maybe I wasn’t. I was, however, the highest paid in my department.

The desert bazaar sequence was actually tolerable.

But yes, the art department deserves full recognition.

And the problem is further minimized when smart hulk is revealed with no effort at all in the next film. I hated it.

I find nuggets in them. Iron man 3 had issues, but I was fascinated by the portrayal of Tony stark’s ptsd after the battle of new York. Sure, seeing a bunch of robots is fun, but it’s not really engaging. The intersection of everyday life, mental trauma, and super powers and responsibilities is fascinating to me.

Ready player 1 - oh yeah, I agree with you. Garbage film. Just an excuse to do fan service. I viewed it like a music video or clip compilation. It was neat to see all the random franchise together on the big screen but worthless as a narrative. I enjoyed it like I enjoy godzilla films, turn brain off, watch the spectacle.

I hate Avatar (blue cat people). Dances with Wolves but Halo. It was pretty! However people seem to act like it was an actual film and not a tech demo. They literally called the mineral unobtanium. It’s a meme. Smh.

Avoid - last Christmas. It’s not a Christmas song. It just happens to be at that time of year. It’s depressing and whiney and over played (even if it wasn’t irrelevant).

Peace and quiet. I usually end up cleaning more than anyone and regulating my kids emotions. I get a break when they go to school. Now they’re home for 2 weeks. I miss when they were younger. It was far simpler.

I can only dream that people would care about me enough to do such things. Most people barely acknowledge my existence.

Star wars is better without jedi or sith as main characters. The universe is far more interesting when it’s regular people and the force users are rare or very weak. I liked rogue one so much more than the other movies. Jedi and sith and such are over powered bullshit and should be reserved for the rare deus ex machina. They are boring. Except Obi Wan because I have a huge crush on Ewan McGregor.

Yep. Thought I was straight until my 30s and saw a picture that made me feel things about men that I usually felt about women. Turns out I’m not that picky about gender but women get a +5. (which means, even if I wasn’t married, the guys I’m attracted to are wayyyyyy outta my league.)

I used to, but people didn’t engage, so I stopped. Learned a few years ago to notice when someone doesn’t care (which is most of the time) and only engage when someone broached the topic.

Hobbies. I like making lots of different things and giving them away. I would fix all sorts of things and give them to the needy. I’d love to fix up crappy houses and cars and everything broken and give it back. I hate throwing things away and love repairing them. I think the world would be a better place if we did that a lot more, so I want to be the change I want to see.

Social/environmental - life is fucking terrible and I have to take anxiety meds to survive it without panicking and breaking down. My last meds made me hungry CONSTANTLY. Sadly, I didn’t know it was the meds until about 3 months ago. New med calms the anxiety and doesn’t make me starving all the time.

I am not built for modern society.

Nope. The free luxury trip and making your son happy are tempting but being 3rd wheel to your cheating ex and the other man would ruin everything. You would likely be in a foul mood and your son would not enjoy being around you.

Sex Type Thing by Stone Temple Pilots. Great music, love STP, but it’s basically about raping someone.

how can you tell one is blocked by an instance?

I see 4

I’ve enjoyed some of the absurd things out can come up with. Surreal videos and memes (every president as a bodybuilder wrestler). However it’s never been useful and the cost isn’t worth the benefit, to me.
