Congrats!

I read all of this. I am definitely guilty of looking for a TL;DR. I absolutely believe my overuse of technology has caused my reading and writing skills to deteriorate significantly and my memory as well. I struggle with remembering and analyzing. I have never been a good book learner though. I suspect I have a learning disability that wasn't quite bad enough for intervention when I was in school aside from special reading training in grade two or three.

It's about 7pm for me.

Hi Stella! The fediverse is very confusing and not at all user-friendly, so don't worry too much.

I'm a late 20s transfem trucker and I'm between names at the moment. Do you like cats? I have four of them.

Try practicing deep breathing in your stomach. On top of that there are many different things you can try, different things work for different people. I count to 100 over and over. Talking to yourself in your head can help, examine what is going on and tell yourself it's okay.

Transphobes use it. I don't like it.

I don't get it. It's addictive, disgusting, bad for your health, makes you make bad choices and then feel like garbage the next day.

I mean I still drink it because of my first point but I hate it.

This is me so far

I have an S23 Ultra and it is a nice phone but I wouldn't recommend Samsung to anyone because my last several Samsungs "mysteriously" got issues right before the 2 year plan ended. I won't be getting another Samsung after this one. I really wanted the pen and it is great but I'm starting to care more about longevity.

I'll definitely take a look at whatever Fairphone is out when it's time to replace my S23 Ultra.

Everyone is poor from inflation and a million different subscription services and smartphone makers haven't done anything new in years so there's no point in getting a new phone unless the old one breaks.

My Samsung phones keep "mysteriously" going to shit after 18 to 22 months so I might try an iPhone when my current one shits the bed. Hopefully they will get their head out of their ass and reduce/remove the cutout.

Boost for Lemmy
