If someone you know constantly makes reproductive anatomy or other borderline jokes and you think they should stop just play dumb. After the joke just say (with a straight face) that you don't get it. When they have to explain it it the joke satisfaction is gone and then more technical words need to be used to explain it making red flags pop up for them and anyone listening. They might get in trouble and you won't need to confront the behavior directly.

Works especially well in the military (even better if it's a superior).

It might be hard distinct between the things you need to the things you want.

If you do see the distinction, prefer the things you need, even though they are not going along with the things you want, and even though you are used to prefer the things you want.

The things you need might be unique to yourself, than the things you want which might be unique to your surroundings.

This is a quite simple tutorial on how to get services for free. I won't waste your time, and get straight too it...

  1. Go to one of the following: ApkMody PlatinMods Sbenny

  2. Look up the service you want for free, for example, if you wanted spotify, then look up Spotify

  3. Download the modded app

  4. Install & enjoy your free service

All three of these sites are well known in the modding community to provide good content. You don't have to worry about viruses, or malware. And if you are that worried, then you can scan them with something like Exodus.

Modders will typically not only mod the service to get it for free, but also remove trackers, loggers, etc. from the apps.

ApkMody has some adjunk, so make sure to have an adblocker. PlatinMods & Sbenny are private forums for HQ mods, roms, etc. They don't have any ads, but will require you to sign up, and participate a little bit to get your content. It's more of a give & take system, rather than just take.

Hope you all enjoy!

The biggest life improvement for me was to get a bidet after reading about it on Reddit. It's been a game changer. It's so easy to clean up.

When I now have to go to a toilet without one I feel like a caveman. I bought the cheapest one Aliexpress, no bells or whistles, and installed it myself.

Less problems of sweaty hands and grilling laps. Pretty useful for me using Intel MacBook Pro during heatwave.

The prices of the items you buy are not based on how much they cost to produce. The price is based on what people are willing to pay. And the corporations know that most people aren't paying that much attention.

If you put things into your grocery cart without considering what the price was two weeks ago or two months ago, they'll just keep jacking up the price.

Have you noticed that the price of coca-cola has doubled in the past 5 years? Do you look for alternatives, or do you just keep putting it in your cart? Is there a point at which you'll stop buying a particular thing, or does it have to be truly egregious?

Have any info on fruits not listed? Have a veggie picking guide? Please share!

I got a bike recently, and before that I used to walk everywhere. I had classes pretty early in the morning a lot of the time, so i'd skip breakfast pretty often and it was never much of a problem. So today I did the same but rode my bike instead, and it was fine on the ride, but as soon as i got off my heart shot right up my throat and i felt like throwing up. Took like 5 mins of sitting down to feel fine again.

Don't skip breakfast, kids
