Ok. I find beauty pageants in general to be reductive and gross… but yeah. You can smell the stink on that decision from Canada.
I mean just look at Yamikani.
In no universe are they on the same level.

The regex redirect feature is another massive pro. I hope they bring it into Orion as well.
I already use Stop the Madness for this, and probably will continue to as it’s a more global solution, but having it built right into the search engine at least shows they’re taking real steps to hand control back to the user.
The irony in this statement, talking about a known depressant lol
Drinking for me is increasingly borrowing happiness from tomorrow, and the older I get, the higher the interest rate climbs.
I’ll still enjoy a drink, but have definitely become more choosy about when and whether it’s worth it.
My go-to is to ask what they like to do in their spare time.
A lot of the time you’ll get answers about how they have none or how it’s filled with chores, but you can always redirect and say, if you suddenly had a bunch of free time just for yourself, and you couldn’t use it to work, what would you fill it with?
In my mind the latter gets you down to what brings them joy, and in some cases how they want to see themselves, which can tell you a lot about a person.
Oh I didn’t mean to imply otherwise - Overcast is awesome.
I guess I worded my question poorly. I’m more asking if there’s any way to block trackers without blocking the entire podcast.
The stream/download just hangs, or errors out because it “cannot connect to creep.noteventhehost.fm” or whatever - just won’t load at all until I unblock and it’s able to do its dirty work.
Not sure if this is even within the capabilities of a client… I’m starting to think not, and that I’ve asked a stupid question lol
If you live near water, kayaking can be an incredibly immersive pursuit in nature that doesn’t really tax the body (unless you want it to)
Trail running is another one of my favourite things to do, but while much safer than MTB still can have some risks… minimal though, comparatively speaking
Ok this actually got a laugh out of me.
You’re not wrong.
Honestly insurance is such a scammy nightmare.
We used https://squareone.ca for like ten years (in Ontario) and they actually turned out to be pretty great when I ended up filing a claim on a damaged computer.
Chose them principally based on the fact you could build your own policy and instantly sign up online, without any phone calls or the other typical “request a quote so we (and all the companies we sell your info to) can harass you forever” bullshit.
Since we finally bought last year we’re with CAA now, but only because sq1 didn’t offer homeowners.
Worth looking into anyway.
I love this.
It’s one of my passing hobbies to look up word lists like this - some of them are beautiful, and there’s something really satisfying about knowing this obscure and weird thing you’re experiencing is at least “normal” enough to have its own name.
Then I promptly forget, which is annoying, bit also means I get to discover them all over again a few months later.
On this list I can easily identify with 7/8 too
Other words you might appreciate:
Routineer: one that adheres to or insists on routine
Fika: a moment to slow down and appreciate the little things in life

Fleshment: excitement associated with a successful beginning (we won’t talk about finishing the project)
Acatalepsy: the idea that it is impossible to truly comprehend anything

Evolutionary psychology is behind one of the primary theories, in the simple way that it’s prudent for us to be wary of things that might hurt us. Bugs can sting, bite, invade, cause sickness/death, or poison us.
There’s also the disgust aversion angle, which is tied to the relationship between a lot of bugs and indirect environmental threats (also ties into evolutionary reasoning) like rotting things, or corpses specifically.
In the broadest strokes, we associate bugs with pain, disease, death, and decay.
I don’t even watch sports and I get buried in gambling ads.
Only started after moving to a somewhat struggling blue collar town, but it was immediate, and the pure volume of it was shocking. Really hit me wrong.
Adblock and VPN everywhere possible now. Degoogling, containerized browsing, hardened settings, like damn basic privacy shouldn’t have to be so much work.
