  • Thanks for the recommendation. I know it's something I need to do but I don't have the funds right now - working on that though!

    I do meditation, journalling, but I know there's more to mental health than what you can do on your own.

  • I don't take astrology that seriously, it's more of a conversation starter or a tool for introspection. Sometimes I see things about my birthdate that help me notice new things about myself, and sometimes it just seems made up.

    Connecting astrology to anti-intellectualism is a pretty big reach in my opinion. I don't think the ideas of astrology, religion, magic, etc should be applied to policy that impacts anybody else.

  • Pretty fair view on astrology! I have some friends/family members who have very close birthdays and it's actually remarkable how similar they are in certain ways. I feel like I typically see the similarities in the way they handle things like relationships, power dynamics, confidence, and they sort of thing.

    For example I know many Geminis, and one pattern I've noticed is that they are all passive aggressive types. Like they won't tell you about a problem until it's too late, and then they will boil over and you'll end up in a fight about something that could have been resolved so much easier.

    Could that be confirmation bias on my part? Definitely. But still it's a fun tool for introspection if you don't take it too far :) I also like to think of the history behind it and how humans developed it in such a human way just from observations.

  • Why? I don't see how astrology hurts anybody (unless people take it to extremes, like not dating someone because of their signs or something like that.)

  • The one I thought of was actually "What do you think about astrology?"

    The answer I am looking for is neither that they believe or don't believe it, I want to hear something between. Something like

    "It's fun! I love seeing the connections between people born with similar birthdays and stuff, and honestly it does seem accurate sometimes. But also I don't live by it! What about you?"

    This open, honest way of communicating is what's important. Didn't knock the idea down or support it 100%, just approached with an open mind.

  • Making vanilla syrup after not being able to find it in the store. Convinced myself it would be too hard.

    It took 10 minutes of actual focus

  • You dropped this 👑

  • Basically always. Unless my signal automatically turned off as I merged into the left lane and then I turned left immediately before I even had time to turn it back on

  • Good for you!

  • Real

  • Stealing this bc true

  • It's hard to decide what's overpriced when there's no competition hahaha

    Was your Lenovo tablet better than Samsung tablets you've used?

    I think for people who don't want to install custom ROMs / or lineageos then they probably do just fine.

    Also getting them used is probably the pro move to save money. Unless you need high end but then you'd probably go with iPad sadly

  • Thanks! OP should check this out too

  • Thank you!

  • I didn't even know 2d materials existed, so cool! Thanks for sharing.

  • Right??? This is crazy if it's true. Almost positive for Lemmy lol

  • I just miss the frog :(

  • I haven't had an android tablet in ages, but I miss mine! I'd say check out what Samsung is selling, they are the only company that seems to be putting out good tablets in the last 5 years.

    I'm not sure why Android tablets have struggled so much compared to the iPad, but I wish we had more competition.

  • Real one
