I used to think of “blocking” as an extreme measure, but for us individuals, it’s really not. You get to decide what your feed looks like. Especially here.

BAMO -> block and move on

What flipped the mental switch for me was facebook, of all places.

I hate it and was off it for years, then we moved to a small town with no subreddit, only a damn fb group. Man I went on a blocking spree with all the proudly terrible people, and now I have both an actually useful local town group AND a separate handy list of people I don’t need to bother meeting.

I made a set with a white background for you :)

I love a good gezpacho in the summer. Super refreshing

This one’s new to me and it sounds delicious. I love everything that’s in it. The colour is gonna be a challenge for westerners though… Pepto Bismol trauma giving me an unpleasant Pavolvian response to that shade of pink haha

Feel like it might be worth trying anyway

Yeah I tried reaching out to them the day they posted looking for a graphic designer, but they left me on read for the whole week so ehh

Just saw their new icon though, and it’s nice. For sure better than the rudolph rat.

Oh man I absolutely feel this.

I’ve been self employed WFH for almost 20yrs now and the lunch-alone struggle has not gotten easier.

When I do make the effort though, it’s usually worth it.

Lately I’ve been in a rut where, if I get up from my desk at all, it’s to forage, not prepare a meal. Like, I’ll call a fistful of peanuts or a banana lunch, or some cold fridge meat with mustard and no plate. It’s depressing.

When I make something colourful and intentional, though, I always feel better. It forces me to get my head out of work mode and take a break, and it’s satisfying to make something that looks and tastes nice. I feel more like a person too, if that makes sense. Not to mention my brain works better when I actually feed it real food, heh

Like anything, it’s just starting that’s the hard part.

Ha, try it and see! I like it, my spouse does not.

If you just immediately plunk it on there it can definitely steam the greens under it, but I let the fish rest 5mins on some folded paper towel first so it works good enough :)

Honestly, not much helps so I’m here for other ideas too.

If I can’t remove myself to a quiet place, noise canceling earbuds are my go-to as well. I have airpod pros too, and they’re ok, but Jabra’s active noise cancellation has been by far the best in my experience. So far, anyway.

Going outside does help, too. It’s not quiet, necessarily, but sounds bounce differently, so it’s much less overwhelming.

omg I didn’t even know this was a thing… but knowing doves, it’s immediately self-explanatory

their “nests” are just so bad

I love them so much with their 3 scattered sticks on pavement

I get it.

I’m not a dude or a parent… but these jokes are so stupid and clever and wholesome, they’re a simple breath of fresh air in a complicated, smoggy world.

Never understood why they’re referred to as “dad jokes” but then again I never had one, so w/e. They’re great and I’m here for them.
