@0v7: well that's no fun at all. Are you feeling any better yet?


I fell down an online rabbit hole.

@Wildfire: A little - looking at low contrast stuff's helping.
What kind of rabbit hole did you fall down, if you don't mind my asking ?? :0

@0v7: I made the mistake of signing in to facebook. I just can't any more... so that was one rabbithole. The other is DuoLingo

@Wildfire: I only keep Facebook to keep in touch with my mom + my siblings. Otherwise, I would've deleted it by now.
DuoLingo is fun! I don't have the attention span to learn a new language though, so I think you're pretty cool for being able to do that!

@0v7: Yes, I kept it to keep up with out-of-state relatives, and to connect with certain groups and activities within the homeschool community, but it has just become so extremely toxic -especially in the last year- that my stomach just churns whenever I sign in at this point. I just don't even care if I stay in contact with pretty much anyone there at this point. It's sad.

@Wildfire: I understand the feeling - I hardly look at the app itself, even though I've weeding out the various -phobic relatives I had added on there. Thank goodness you can unfollow people and still be friends with them.

@0v7: Yes, I've had to put a few on 30-day blocking a couple of times just to stay sane. A couple people have unfriended me... just ... ugh. Now that I think about it, it has been reminding me a whole lot of Gaia (the last time I signed in there was years ago, though)

@Wildfire: The environment on Facebook can be super toxic - at one point, my Facebook feed reminded me of recolor.me and so I avoided it. This was back in high school, though, where all my classmates were like... pretty -phobic, all the time. Thankfully, I did a spring cleaning of my Facebook and now I'm only seeing updates from like, a friend of a friend who is cool , plus sometimes my siblings lol

@0v7: I actually started a brand new account that would be "clean" and "selective" without losing all the history or connections I have on the other one but it's just impossible to avoid the craziness these days

Also, the changes that facebook recently implemented are not helping - I'm seeing things that I don't necessarily mind seeing, but wouldn't be my first choice, apparently can't choose to see "most recent" instead of "most popular" any more, and other things like this... and I don't even want to be there long enough to sort through the settings - lol.

So, I'll stay here, talk to you lovely people and try to save what's left of my sanity - lol!

@Wildfire: I'd make a new one, but honestly, I don't want to bother. I don't trust Facebook itself, hence why I'd delete it if I could.

Also, same, Voltra is so much better than Facebook honestly! I'm glad I joined again :3

@0v7: That's definitely part of it too. I don't trust anything about that site. I may just freeze and delete that account and keep the new one to a bare minimum after all, but I can't even bear being on it that long these days. Anyway, enough of that. Thanks for listening to me gripe.

Yes, being here is a much nicer way to have some social interaction without the drama. I'm so thankful for that right now! <3

So how are you going to have your salmon for dinner tonight? - what are you making with it?

@Wildfire: I'm thinking of digging through the freezer to find the ground turkey my grandpa said we had via text. I'm so tired of salmon lol

@0v7: LOL! If you could find it, what would you do with it?

I'm trying to decide what to cook tonight - or even whether to cook tonight

@Wildfire: It isn't in our deep freezer, and I don't THINK it's in the normal freezer... I'd probably cook up tacos, or well, tostadas.
What're your options for cooking?

@0v7: I could do a ground beef & cabbage stir fry thing - it's quick and easy and it has been a little while since I've done it. Or I could do something with the chicken thighs, or with the leftover shredded pork...

Voltie Posted 4 years ago ( 2020/10/7 21:38:21 )
What can I do with the leftover pork? That is probably the best option, since there's probably enough to get through dinner, and if there's not, there's other leftovers in the fridge that people can scavenge for. -thinks-

"The future must know where you've been."


@Wildfire: Hmm, maybe you could do that! I'd eat the heck out of that, honestly. I love stir fries >w>
As for pork, I use pork to make tamales, so I can't give you many options haha

Also brb, I heard a loud sound in my living room ??
