Always agree on compensation/salary before starting your work.

OP, there’s help available if you have OCD.

Have you read about emotional eating? I’m struggling with it as well.

You could reduce your mince meat consuption by adding TVP/ soy protein crumble in it. This is what some fast food places actually do and people don’t notice the difference unless they hear about it. There are also many vegan proteins in freezer section in many stores. Tofu can be super delicious once you learn how to cook it. I think cooking yummy tofu is sign of good chef.

I’m trying, but there are a lot of people and communities who don’t follow. The corporate are just too powerful at the moment. Like Facebook’s new Threads is replacing Twitter, instead of Mastodon. Here in Finland Mastodon had it’s moment and people were migrating to that, but I dunno.

Not all creators are influencers, but all influencers are one-person ad distrubutor agencies. Most of the influencers business model is based on ad revenue and making ads themselves (collabs).

Yes. When I visit my parents, who don’t use adblocker, I get really anxious when I have to face the enormous flood of ads that you get without it. I wouldn’t be able to concetrate to anything if I were interupted frequently with ad breaks. I also hate how ads volume loudness has been maximized, so they sound more loud than normal content.

I didn’t say that. I just said poor and lower middle class. If you are millionaire or billionaire and want to maximize your wealth, you definitely should vote for the conservatives as they transfer money from the poor majority to you.

Why not. I have double masters from one of the world top 200 universities. My own graduate program is 6th best in the world.

I don’t know about that… you probably don’t want fecal matter to your food. It is the root cause of salmonella amongst other.

Hehe of course I had the visitor counter! It’s essential like the under construction text/gif! I think my main page reached nearly three digits in its’ life time, and I was happy about it. These days I get that many likes on a single post in social media at good days.

In some places tap water might be better quality than bottled water, since it’s fresh. Bottled water may have gotten some microbial growth during the storing.

I don’t know if it’s actually true, but some have said that the Roman empire collapsed because the lead in waterworks and aquaducts made people lose their sanity slowly.

The same, but I’ve became used to bottled water after traveling. I think I was 25+ years old when I bought bottled water for the first time in my life.

Being poor or lower middle class and voting for right wing/conservatives. You essentially give away your hard earned money and give it to ultra rich and worsen the quality of your life… usually because the right wing scares people to be afraid of other people and new phenomena.

Don’t worry about being only 22. Lots of famous people in history did stuff at your age, and they probably also had no idea what they are doing, but did it anyways. When you’re 44, you’ll realise most people still have no clue, but they know how to act like they do. So just go for it! You’ll figure it out on your way.

I was doing two master’s degrees and I was active in student union. It was impossible to be in three places at the same time. After the first week, I realised people don’t really care if you are late or not and if you come or not. Before this I was always minimum 5 minutes early before the starting time. After that I’ve been late almost always. And not just by few minutes…

In the 90s, before the social media and Google existed, it was customary to create your own home page. My page was about koalas. I was really into koalas. I had a crush in the digital art class, and she made her page about Hanson (a boyband). I remember feeling jealous about the attention they were getting hehe.

undefined> In Hong Kong, they are separate and toilet water is much cheaper. Not sure about other countries.

Wow. I never even thought the possibility of having two different types of water quality coming in a house. Here in Finland we just have “water”. It’s the same water that we drink, shower in and goes down the toilet.
