  • As someone who plays in an orchestra professionally, I totally 1000% agree with you. It's a weird fine line that I enjoy music, but I do it as a career because I really enjoy playing with other people and the music itself is almost secondary. Good luck explaining that to people who Really Like Classical Music, lol.

    There's a lot of elitism in it and it sadly alienates a lot of would-be concert goers, I feel like.

  • I honestly think the 60s special effects are one of my favorite aspects about TOS. They're silly and corny and the suspension of disbelief is nonexistent but it wouldn't be the same without them. That, and also the dramatic lighting in the closeups and the extravagant eye makeup on literally everyone lol.

  • I think some of the other commenters pointing out that it reads as a command is probably a big one, but you did a pretty good job of explaining it here (imo). Even just saying to him that you want a heads up of if it's good or bad and working out a system so you don't stress would probably be a marked improvement for you, and I would bet it'd be an easy fix.

  • Usually it's pretty ok but I remember once being in an online PvP match and windows decided right then it NEEDED to update and started the process. It just went into update mode and restarted (oh so slowly) - my guess is there was a popup that I didn't see due to being in-game and it just went ahead and overrode whatever I was doing to update.

  • I think this was honestly my favorite bit of the episode. I thought their honor was challenged just because singing overall, and expected some drinking songs or klingon opera. I was so totally taken off guard by it, it absolutely made the entire episode imo. I barely even remember what it sounded like after the first second because I was laughing so hard.

  • I'm pretty much also in the boat so thanks for writing out a lot of what I was already thinking, lol.

    I absolutely do have some imposter syndrome but what I've chosen to do about it is be completely open with others about having it (I don't advise this if you're a doctor or something like that, I'm in a creative-and-thereby-totally-subjective field). I found that being open about it or anxieties has in turn made others more open in turn, and it's made the nagging voice in the back of my head a lot quieter.

    My best advice for you OP is to learn to really, truly forgive yourself. For little blunders or whatever else, learning to not beat myself up over mistakes or embarrassment was life-changing in terms of being able to curate a sunnier attitude toward my own self.

  • I'm a bit curious in this too. I don't have an answer for you but totally anecdotal, I do notice I feel noticeably better even just halfway through a liquid IV which I've never noticed with any other sports drinks.

  • There are a lot of bots still here so I wouldn't be all that surprised.

    Conversely I'm having the similar issue of blocking one community but then different communities with the same name and content still appear on my feed as if I never blocked them at all. Like playing whack-a-mole.

    have a permanent opaque top banner

    Super low-priority change request but sometimes the notifications and status bar blur (like in the attached photo) with the titles and photos and obscures both at the same time. Would love to have an opaque bar to keep the notification bar separate.

  • Lordy this one is so specific I'll probably doxx myself with it, lol.

    Small town college in a pretty red (enough) state, one store in town to buy any groceries unless you have a car and can get to the bigger stores in the next town. Black kid gets tackled fleeing the shop by the son of the shop owners, initial wave of gossip blames racial profiling by the white owners and the students start boycotting the business. College itself gets involved and stops purchasing food for the dining halls (baked goods, etc.) from the shop, severely cutting into their business margins. Turns out the kid was actually shoplifting, and if I remember correctly was shoplifting alcohol while underage, and it becomes a huge fiasco (as if it wasn't already) with the police getting involved and I think the business sued the college. Not positive how it ended as it mostly happened right when I was graduating.

    There were news articles about it online as it got to be a pretty huge deal with the lawsuits and everything. Partly posting this to see how many other people from there at that time are on here (I suspect more than a few).

    Edited to add - turns out there's an entire wikipedia article about this, so have fun anyone who searches for this lmao.

  • There are some articles floating around (I'll try to dig them up when I have time later) where actors actually discuss how much they make and it really is that little. Think like 2k for a one-time spot which sounds great, but that then gets cut by taxes, fees to agents and other representatives. Also not including the time for auditioning, at-home work preparing for the actual rehearsals and filming. It's wild. I work in the arts but not film, and I thought I had it bad.

  • I don't have specific info on what's harvested, but I have had mine active for a while and I'm at 300k tracking attempts blocked in the last 7 days. It's absolutely wild.

    Edited to add - they don't specify what is being attempted, just what each company is known to track generally.

    Welcome!

    Hello everyone!

    With reddit becoming inaccessible or just unsavory for a lot of users, many of us are coming to the Fediverse looking for the same niche communities and conversations that we had there. While this is in no way affiliated with any rabbit-related subreddits, I learned a lot and loved to share and see everyone's little and large lagomorphs.

    I made this community in the hope that it can become a place for everyone to share photos, seek support, and ask questions or find information on rabbits of all shapes and sizes.

    Please be respectful and kind, but most importantly have fun.
