Hmm good to know. But what are my options for email if I've already gotten into a plan that costs $86.11 for 2 years of VPN?

There are 27.4 empty homes for every homeless person in the U.S.

If those empty homes are for the homeless people, why aren't they in them??

Agonizing. I'm starting to understand why some people choose to buck the system and live off the land in the wilderness.

There's a merchant I order products from, and the only way to get shipping tracking info is to install an invasive app that leeches all your Google information.

They MOVED? Like, independently?? Or they kinda slipped & slid all gushy as they thawed out?

  1. Regarding my patterns: I can't help it that I have to go to work every day at the same place, and there is only one authorized place to park. As soon as I leave work I keep no patterns but while I'm at work away from my vehicle, vultures are vulturing.

  2. And never mind what I said about airtags. I tried to delete that I even mentioned airtags but Lemmy wouldn't let me delete it.

When I named my children I made sure to choose names that can always be found in kitschy gift shop items.

So are you saying Fortran Programming is a lucrative skill?

Thank you. that AVITAL website doesn't appear to be mobile-friendly. It won't let me click on anything.

I'm using proton. proton is my VPN.

So my question is, for example, if I'm using public Wi-Fi, I'm safe behind my proton VPN wall?

passwords, banking app visits, embarrassing websites, is this all for-my-eyes-only now?

overlooking the disgusting fact that he thinks this is particularly suitable to females, why does everyone think that students deserve to live like prisoners?

I'm tired of these places coming up in all my searches because I will never go back to these places again.

... and the only place to emergency park was in a touristy area where all the parking lots require a fee, would that accident-car have to pay for parking there while he's in a crisis?

I have no choice but to work a job for survival although I am in constant pain, my feet, my legs, my back, my shoulders, which is ironic because here I am as your massage therapist so you might assume we're impervious to pain, But no, not only am I your licensed massage therapist but I am first & foremost a Disabled Army Veteran but I have no choice but to work because all my disability benefits are being garnished by the government.

Ideally to heal my pain, I would rest and exercise and do yoga all day which is what I really need to do, but that won't earn me money to survive, and if I don't earn money to survive then I cannot survive. So I have no choice but to work a job, and if I could have any job in the world I wanted, it would be this job, as a licensed massage therapist here in this oceanfront Spa at this exclusive Beach Club that charges members $7,000 to join and $1,000 a month club dues, yes this is an exclusive club and I am grateful you hired me to work here,

I went to school for this, and jumped through so many legal hoops and bureaucratic documentation and licensing and testing in several different states just to have this job, So I'm investing myself into this job because I've already invested so much effort into it, and I don't want to jump through any other hoops for any other job because I'm already exhausted.

although what I really want to do is be a yoga teacher but I tried that and it only pays $25 a week and I cannot survive on $25/week, so I'm sticking with this job as a massage therapist and I'm grateful you hired me because this spa is on the beach and we can literally see the ocean from our windows and front promenade and it is so beautiful. And an employee benefit you offer us is a cafeteria with free food during our breaks and that is amazing. I'm grateful to work here,

but let me be clear that I do not want to work AT ALL and I need to rest and my body is in constant pain and I literally have disability benefits so I shouldn't be working but the government /IRS is garnishing all of my disability benefits because of something stupid my ex-husband did 10 years ago, So I have no choice but to work this job, and if I must work a job, this is the best one. But I am worried I will not be able to keep up and I will be so exhausted that I simply can't do it anymore, and then what? I will die because we need money to survive and if I don't work then I won't have money. And mind you, death from lack of money is not a quick instant painless death. No, it's a slow horrible undignified demise.

I will honestly tell you, along the same vein of preferring to be a yoga teacher if it only paid a living wage because that would be better for my body and my health, I've also thought of being an exotic dancer so I can climb a pole and be upside down and exercise which is what I crave, so much better than standing on these hard floors all day bending over massage clients, Oh it's 3:45 a.m. and my body is still throbbing in pain from the prior day of work, but I chose this vocation as a massage therapist because it is respectable, and guaranteed steady income as long as I can tolerate the pain and keep showing up to work every day,

whereas being an exotic dancer would not be respectable, and also I don't have the personality or the street smarts to be an exotic dancer. I would just like the physicality of it, climbing, stretching, dancing, that's what my body needs to do.

I don't really care how many people see my videos or if nobody sees them at all, because they're just clips of happy moments in my life for my own memories, but a few days ago I posted a video and it got

Day one: 4 views and one thumbs up.

Day two: 1 view and no thumbs up 🤔

Day three: ZERO VIEWS and one thumbs up.

I find this hilarious. and miffed at YouTube for manipulating things for no reason.

I'm pretty sure even based on viewer response, "views" cannot go backwards LOL.

I have to submit a document for employment and they want my passport but my passport photo is 5.49 MB and they say you can't upload anything more than 5 MB. How can I shrink that file on my android phone without paying some service?

Seriously, I have a stalker and I CAN'T HELP posting videos about where I am and what I'm doing, and I have a feeling I'm going to need a gun to protect myself from this guy.

I'd rather just block him from ever seeing my videos.

Humans need approx 1tsp (or less) of sodium daily as an essential nutrient. I was low on sodium this morning* then spent the day at the beach in the salty ocean air, then within about 30 minutes I wasn't dizzy and nauseous anymore. Did the ocean air provide me sodium somehow?

*(dizzy & nauseous, I know the symptoms well since I often have no sodium in my diet and I've learned this through experience the last 5 years and I have to consciously remember to add sodium to my diet, and if I forget then I have dizziness and nausea)

Reddit wouldn't let me post this for some reason, Maybe because that subreddit r/askadoctor is dead, there have been no posts there for 3 years, so instead of abandoning my attempt at a post, I screenshat it and posting it here on Lemmy.

The slices in the middle are big, and the slices on the end are so small. Why can't they make it a rectangle with equally-sized square slices?
