  • Douching master race. Moved and my bidet no longer has the necessary pressure for douching and I’m back to being the guy from OP’s meme. Don’t know about inserting anything anywhere tho, the right amount of water pressure, maybe with the right angles, and you’re good to go.

    Even then, I see no way for water to go back up the bidet line and contaminate stuff elsewhere. Its like expecting faucets to contaminate things upstream when you wash your hands, it kinda makes no sense, at least to me.








  • Nothing would make me happier than not having to use WhatsApp. Instead, I had to bend over backwards to get WhatsApp on a separate device entirely after they flagged and banned my account (multiple times over the course of a month) for random reasons (hackers trying to hack my account for 6 months straight is my guess as to why I got flagged) and wouldn’t let me log back in with my GrapheneOS phone, and if I ever forget to check that other phone for more than 2 weeks, I get logged out of all my companion devices and lose all my stickers and some recent chat history.

    I floated the idea to my contacts of possibly not being able to come back to WhatsApp, they all essentially said I should just buy a new phone (have had my pixel for like a year) and get a new phone number (have had my number for 20 years). My own family scoffed at the idea of using something other than WhatsApp at all to talk to me.

    So yeah. Fuck WhatsApp, absolutely fuuuuuuuck Meta, but we’re all literally doing the best we can given the situation we’re in.



  • Its a victim of its time. There is a decent amount of filler and some episodes have big inconsistencies at one point due to being released out of order since they were filler content, but the overarching quality of the show, and watching it slowly move away from monster/mystery of the week to something that rewarded its fans in multiple intentional and sometimes subtle ways, it truly felt… And still feels… Like something deeply special and really worth recommending, even if you do end up having to work through a decent amount of filler in the first seasons.



  • Sony XM5 earbuds. The most annoying part of them is their feature that connects to multiple devices at once, so I end up fighting my phone (Graphene) or gaming PC (Bazzite) midway through a business call on my work laptop (believe it or not, also Bazzite).

    So yeah, their only problem is they work with everything and can prioritize sounds from other devices mid-call. You can just not connect them to everything at the same time, or turn off Bluetooth on the phone n stuff while not in use.

    I’m pretty sure you can just buy any device like that (so not Razer, and generally not gaming) and it’ll just work on Linux. Gaming stuff in general usually has a hard time working even on Windows due to absolute dog-shit firmware & software implementations.
