  • A while back I switched to unflavored vegan protein powder that I buy in bulk. The place was out so I got some whey, thinking it would be a nice little treat to take a break from the graineyness of the vegan powder. I was wrong. I can barely tolerate the sweetness of the artificial flavoring. I was almost gagging getting it down. I guess I've officially made that switch.

    @tiesselune Yeah, that's the problem I'm trying to find an answer to. What's FNAC's DRM situation like? In any case, if it can be broken by Calibre, I guess it doesn't matter. I'd just like a confirmation from someone before I buy.

    @skotchygut Thanks for the suggestion. It seems like they're a specialized bookstore and I'm looking for kind of a bit more general place. I'll keep it in mind though!

    @BenCollver Thanks for the suggestions and this master list. I checked out a lot of libraries where you don't need apply in person but the book I'm looking for is turning out to be a bit rare. Even more for the most up to date edition! But this will surely come in handy in the future

  • Hey all. I need some help. Where should I buy ebooks from that isn't Amazon? If it matters, I have a Kindle and it reads epub and mobi.

  • I have a friend with an internet radio that I might be doing themed playlists for, and one of the first ideas I had was something like "protest music that doesn't suck." As I start compiling this list (which goes from Chumbawumba to Dolly Parton to Linkin Park to System of a Down), I'm wondering if he's going to maybe tell me to come back with something a little tamer. But at worst, I'll share it with all of you. ❤️

  • I swear I'll finish my little essay on Hyperion and Big Tech one of these days! I was able to carve out an hour or so of my schedule to work on it today. What's embarrassing is that it's not that long. Probably a 10 minute read, but I just want to do a good job. I keep saying I'll find more time to write but then what should I give up to find that time? I have so many little projects I want to do.

    @BenCollver I think one reason they're hard to answer is because to answer it well I feel like you'd have to be yourself AND the other person at the same time. The first part to understand the experience intimately and the second part to translate that experience in a way they could possibly relate to. And I don't know how to be two people at once :ziltoid:

    @BenCollver Oh yeah that's a hard one. Sometimes when people ask that kind of question I think they mean do you like being gay and that's easier to answer. I generally respond with I love being gay. I just don't like how society treats gay people. But if they really mean describe what being gay is like in some objective way, well, I'm not sure you can do that with anything very well. What is it like to be a man? A Buddhist? A video game fan? I'd find all of those questions hard and nonsensical.

    Also, a dream I was actually in where a guy asked me why I was gay after saying I sounded and acted too gay, and me and two other people backed him into a corner repeating "Why are you straight?" till he got intimidated and freaked out because he didn't know the answer.

    Also some soldier disciplined some child for getting to rowdy with his ball.

    Your guess is as good as mine.

  • I finally got a good night of sleep but I had so many dreams. They include:

    A post apocalyptic society that recreated ancient civilizations. The main character's father and her were captured by the Greeks. She was raised as part of the Greek royal family but learned that she was Egyptian so she freed him and they returned to Egyptian society.

  • I'm not going to say who it b/c the point isn't to be mean to someone but I saw a video of a person who said we should fight fascism by making bad art out of trash. Like... What? Someone help me out. Am I missing something or is this liberal idealism? Maybe make art for your mental health so you feel good enough to get out of your house to protest & organize.... But the fascists aren't going to go away just b/c we, like, wished really hard.

    Wind rushing by my ears
    Branches slap my face
    Speed increasing
    As gravity drags me down
    Into its bosom
    Woosh, whack, whiz
    As I wake up
    To a once hidden nightmare.
