What’s DOS2 stand for?
Another +1 for Arctic.
I was using Mlem and Voyager before, but when I tried Arctic out I really enjoyed how it played well with video posts (excluding youtube, they just load and you can view them without navigating away) whereas the others would open the link through the in app browser.
Edit: Mlem just got an update/overhaul so it may be worth checking out as well.
It was an interesting read, and helped me process a few things about myself. Thanks for posting/sharing :)
This has been working for me, so here it is:
When you’re ready to fall asleep, pick a five to seven letter word (it can be longer if you can keep track of the letters). (e.g. - “Candle”)
For each letter, pick an animal. (e.g. - “C is for Cat”)
To the best of your ability, try and picture that animal in as much detail as you think is appropriate. (e.g. - “It’s seated but not laying down. It has cinnamon-colored fur, short. Its nose is pink, etc.”
Move on to the next letter and do steps 2 & 3 for each letter.
If you finish a word, pick another word, and repeat the same process.
Apparently this mimics the random-ish thought pattern that precedes sleep, and supposedly signals to your brain that the environment is safe enough to sleep.
I forget where I picked this up. This was just one of those things where you go, “Oh - that sounds interesting. I’ll guess I’ll give it a shot if I happen to remember it when I’m trying to fall asleep.” It wasn’t something that I ever really expected to work for me.
Guns would definitely fuck up the roof of my mouth :(
I like to collect what I call "Good Boy" comics. Anybody know of any that aren't already in here? The comics should include the phrase "good boy" or at least allude to the idea.
Thanks in advance if you find something to contribute, but if not, I hope you enjoy this little collection! :)

I’m not a girl, but the intense social anxiety is the same. I think I’m more that future version of her that she envisioned - the one that was drinking beer and reminiscing about the friends that she used to have. I used to play guitar though I invested more of my time into art rather than music.
This is so annoying. It goes into a full screen ad as soon as you turn it on, so I babysit the remote and navigate to an app as soon as it turns on, in order to avoid ads. It also does this if you let the TV idle, which I also hate. I might just throw it away and go back to hooking up a laptop to the TV instead. I paid $70-ish bucks for this stupid thing.
Edit: I just remembered that you can hack these fire sticks, so i’ll probably try that first.
Sounds promising! I’ll check it out. Thanks for the response / explanation :)
