NOOO MOOMIIINNnNnn!!!

I do this all the time. Also wearing headphones and listening to music to avoid people trying to talk to you once you arrive somewhere, so they won't distract you from your plans.

I'm usually even 30-45 mins earlier because my problem is rather what to do with that time before having an appointment. I will just sit at home and get nothing done until it's time to get ready and leave, so I'm better off leaving the house. Take a stroll in a nearby park (if I'm familiar with the area - it's great to calm down), or I'll get some food and eat (if I feel comfortable) and just sit down and read as I've arrived.

Oh well, there's those other days as well where I just forget time and am in a rush to get to places and forget half the things I need. Definitely prefer the first version...

thx for this community. it's not just the Artworks but reading the comments as well.. soothing.

That beret would suit Sniff better.. I'm slowly getting tired of all those 'good ideas'.

Ist das der Brudi von Findus?

but see how sad little friend is(((

Meldebestätigung, Kopie des Mietvertrags und Einkommensnachweise nicht vergessen, sonst wird das nie was! Am besten auch gleich noch die Kontoauszüge der letzten drei Monate mitbringen, dann wissen die auch gleich dass du die 2 E Mahngebühren im Notfall auch wirklich zahlen kannst (die Einzugsermächtigung findet sich bestimmt schon im Formular)!

Oh, the disappointment..

oh, unexpected turn of events... hilarious =)

Wouldn't find a good minute of sleep smelling and touching that amount of metal...

In the same boat. Besides other problems NewPipe hasn't worked ever since the last 2 months, and honestly, I'm tired of chasing for different solutions.

I saw it coming and tried to work on my habits over the past year. Slowly reducing watchtime and cutting down the number of channels in general. It helps a lot. Also moved everything music related to other platforms.

I now gave Odysee a go as I feel its a very familiar experience. But it's a disaster especially if I take a look at content in my native language. I'm happy with the few tech channels on there however, it will keep me afloat for a while if I have a particularily bad day and need to watch some stuff to regulate my feelings. So I'd also be interested in channel recommendations on other platforms and the like.

I was wondering if it wouldn't be more important to take action at this point. You know, this could be a controversial topic, but I was thinking about some uniform text that everyone could use to send to their favourite content creators, informing about the situation and asking them to at least consider mirroring content to other platforms or move elsewhere. idk, just an idea. maybe it's a starting point for further discussion on how to solve this mess.

Maybe it seems weird to do sth like this but in the end, it's still YouTube, things tend to spread pretty quickly on there and I guess a few creators are very aware of whats going on already. So why not try. If all those still cling to this platforms, idk if things will ever change.YouTube will be happy to have those voices leave the platform anyway, pretty sure about that. But I thought more of the effect it might have if a certain crowd just decides to leave the platform.

The other thing, I know, money issues. It's not an easy and quick thing to move a viewer base to a different platform, especially if you have the comfort of having a somewhat regular income on the other. We need to talk about solutions for this as well. And we need to ask ourselves the question how much we are willing to sacrifice in this process.

I guess what it all boils down to is: there's other questions we need to ask ourselves now instead of just thinking about the next best solution on how we are able to consume free content again. And yes, I have a hard time with that myself.

We need more discussion, ideas, solutions, and some brains that can implement those ideas by creating the spaces we need. It's all so difficult and so much to navigate.

sorry if this went a bit off-topic. hope you have a great day :)

Sort of weird, but that sounds like a really great place to be, doesn't it!?
