9. I prefer hot cocoa with 2/3 to 3/4 water, and only the last bit milk.

It's also faster because I don't have to heat milk. I probably discovered this preference due to laziness in the first place.

Since I'm working I have enough money to buy nicer clothing, but unfortunately I have not enough time to go shopping. Any recommendations for learning how to shop online for clothing?

"The new version of iOS features a new interface and redesigned App Store, but also removes support for 32-bit devices and apps. (...) That means anyone with an iPhone 5 or 5C will no longer receive software updates for either new features, or more importantly security fixes."

Btw tomorrow (6.6.) is trans day of grandiosity (…that is a working title I think, call it whatever you want), it is almost becoming a thing in the german bubble, well, for a hand full of people.

It's about celebrating trans existence without spending energy on education, awareness or anything else directed at cis people. One day to spend time with other trans people and do nice things and connect through something that is not as draining as constant activism.
