God no!

I'm smell sensitive and work for an international company with a lot of South-Europeans running around.

No additional deodorant or aftershave! Please!

People most often smell like they've put a pine forest through a blender and took a bath in it and in worst cases it lingers 15min after they're gone. I'd rather smell BO.

If I login to youtube and click a video, advertisments are mostly female hygiene products, braziers or frozen food products, because wife sometimes forgets to sign out from Facebook or Instagram. There also used to be gaming related stuff, but after my son became "privacy oriented", those.disappeared.

I'm guessing that for data brokers we are one singular blob.

Not sure about how it all effects on blending in.

In a way always.

Whole family is connected to home network and home network has filters and blockers in the outgoing router.

Additionally home security system doesn't have to keep connections open outside or have ports forwarded.

Outgoing router however does not have VPN set, so home network IP is visible. This is to keep everything operational and CAPTHCA from annoying users.

Yeah. COVID lockdown was my golden era.

I secretly despised people at my company that wanted to demolish remote working completely after COVID on the pretence that people are traumaticed by the solitude and need to get back on the horse 100%.

Eventually only max. 30% remote was allowed and became company norm.

Even then some of these pieces of shit actually forbid remote working from their subordinates.

Those subordinates then gave them absolutely garbage employee reviews and made their worklife hell. Now they are in some other company torturing some other poor souls.

Yeah, poverty has been a form of control for very long time.

Hehe. Was just about to post this. Word for word

I wonder who thought that using icon that looks like a curly pubic hair was a good pick for Threads.

Thanks. It was gringy AF

Fine addition to the nauseating content of x.com.

Lost my sense of smell for a while. It gradually returned and some things tasted funny for some time.

Bigger problem was that I started dozing off if anything got boring. Half an hour drive to work became risky and on some days i needed ways to cause myself paint to stay focused. It lasted for 1,5 years.
