Every time I've installed Debian it's used broken update repos by default. Is that on purpose?

the problem with being a very introverted introvert is that the first thing to run dry is always my ability to talk to the people that i want to talk with, then i have pretty much no control over recovery time

this gets even more complicated when you're an extroverted very introverted introvert.. oh dear.

i think i'm going to try my luck at one of the many avatar creators... anyone have any recommendations that they'd be amused to see someone try?

the real challenge begins now: the lunchables nachos w/ cheese dip & salsa pack

the chips are ... well, they remind me of unflavored doritos, but not as good, the cheese sauce is the stuff of nightmares, & the salsa is like watered down tomato sauce with sugar - this is the first one that is honestly just hands-down inedible

which doesn't really surprise me - processed cheese sauces always make me leery as hell to say the least

at least this one came with a kitkat bar 🤷

American Food Review (why?) 

if I was asked why I'm eating these, the answer is...

"because they were there, and I was morbidly curious"

deep and profound, I know.

after a long 10+ year journey as a hackintosh user, i think i am gonna walk away

the ports systems are a bit stale, the os as a whole is no longer even remotely stable (hasn't been for a while), and the move towards locking down the dev environment is annoying

so, out with the old, in with.... probably the old. i think i'll go back to windows. i thought about using arch, but i had fun with the whole do-it-yourself linux thing back in the early 90s and i don't have the spoons for that anymore

@scarly agreed. And a lot of it has to do with the funding models for universities. They have to perform in some way to get the funding they need. And the way they perform to get the funding is by presenting numbers that look good, so they end up with "subjective" evaluations of learning that may not be practical or even reflect reality for the students.

i feel like the educational system in the US is tainted by capitalism and is more or less just a factory for producing dehumanized worker bees for our capitalist hellscape

the revolution should not omit colleges and universities. really, i feel like they should be the first things that are looked at and completely redone.

how in the fuck does it make sense to run a School like a corporation??? yet, that's pretty much the way that things are done. for colleges/universities it's about that $$$

i feel like it's my job to mess up in life so i can tell others how not to do it

transactional friendships aren't actual friendships. if someone sees you as a resource to get ahead in a capitalist society, then it's time to drop in some healthy boundaries

@scarly you made me think of a hermit crab but instead it's a crow with the shell

coming out as some variety of lgbt in certain areas is typically the equivalent of pushing a reset switch on your entire social network and starting over from scratch

today we've got lunchable's Asian style BBQ chicken pack 🤔

contents are 6 Fully Cooked Breaded Nugget Shaped Chicken Patties (the same as from the chicken tacos), a little 'Asian Style BBQ' sauce cup, & a some Meiji Hello Panda chocolate cookies (unexpected! I love these things)

the chicken is acceptable, though I think describing the BBQ sauce as 'Asian' is a stretch? It's pretty standard sweet bbq sauce tbh. very unexciting & bland tbh

the meiji cookies were lovely tho

sometimes, i sit down and look at my empty toot box like an artist looks at a blank canvas. and then i...

procrastinate.

i try to take relationships day by day. not everything is forever, and there's always the urge to wonder about tomorrow and whether or not things will Always Be There and Good.

however, i've found that it is best to just appreciate every day for its own sake and not worry too much for one's future with others.

enjoy the moments while they're being made, before they become memories.

i've been fairly inactive for a few days, but I swear I'm still alive and still exceptionally gay :bun:

hello friends, today I'll be reviewing Lunchable's chicken tacos pack

contents: 1 pack of shredded cheese, 2 mini flour tortillas, and 6 Fully Cooked Breaded Popcorn Shaped Chicken Patties

so going into this I expected to be miserable, filled with self loathing, & disgusted w/ myself, but after assembling my tacos I was surprised to find that they were mostly just really bland. so much so that not even liberal amounts of cholula helped

in the end it was more or less edible
