@wuest Yeah I've been getting a lot of confirmation that it's a good practice, at least. Would've been nice to know sooner, but I'm not sure if I would've listened/understood.

I've been dealing with hand pains for a while, and I think I figured out recently that I have a tendency to bend my wrists backwards, and this causes strain. So I'm trying to learn to keep my wrists straight.
Moving that way feels better moment-to-moment, but I don't know yet how much it'll help.
Did the #my9games thing because people in a chat I'm in were doing it. The prompt I was given was "most influential games for you personally". Also I used topsters.org to make the image
@emerald Gimp supports taking screenshots.
What if we were both girls and we played a game together and held opposite sides of the controller and our arms crossed? 😳

I have never come upon a paywall while casually browsing the news and thought, "Let me get my credit card out."
It's always, "I don't need to know that badly."

Call to action to cis people: be assholes anytime you get asked for your sex assigned at birth. Write letters, complain to staff, refuse to answer. Make it impossible to collect sex assigned at birth. Be really offended that anyone would ask you. Make enough noise that if trans people want to quietly not answer or give whatever answer feels correct to them, no one will notice.

Mostly I try to navigate it by intuition.
There seems to be one for navigating logic/systems. That's the one I run down if I spend a day doing taxes.
Others that I think I've independently experienced: social interaction, physical coordination, just plain old sleepiness (although I've heard that feelings from sleep debt vs circadian rhythm are distinct)

@emerald from my experience, a single mental resource and a single kind of resting to replenish that resource is too simple a model to be very useful

I just ate the straightest string cheese I've ever encountered. Every little pulled off piece was pretty much uniform thickness.
I am over a month behind on social media and falling more behind every day. I do not plan to make any attempt to reverse this trend.
