I had experience with mastodon several years ago and so when I moved over here from Reddit I was excited to try and find an instance that resonated with me but alas, the only niche ones are like, furry instances, porn instances, and tech instances. Bummed that there haven't been more that have themes.

I mean he did copyright that pose, he wasn't having me imitate him at all without royalties! Lol
Oh man this is kinda similar to a quirk I had as a kid. It's kinda hard to explain, but in my old neighborhood we had sidewalks like these. So if you look at the first five rows of squares starring from the bottom of the picture, you'll see that the color of the cement changes on the next row. Well the sidewalks I walked on, there would be like, 3 or 4 rows of blocks with a thicker kinda borderline between eachother. So when I would walk I would step one foot in front of the other in each block and count "one two three four, one two, one two three, one two three" etc, starting the count over every time I crossed the break or change in the cement.
Hahaha, II love that you're kinda faking them out even if you're right or not lol. I used to work as a cashier, and I would always guess the weight of the vegetables/fruits before putting them on the scale/scanner thing because i love estimating that stuff too. I did it out loud once and got it almost exact and a couple customers jeard and wete impressed. So I tried a few times and the customers in line and I made a game of it and cheered or "awww"ed when I got it wrong. So fun.
I also like trying to guess the amount of something i need for recipes. Like, a recipe calls for a cup of onions, I look at the whole onions in store and based on size I imagine what it would look like diced in a measuring cup, I usually get close and its so satisfying
Definitely distraught over the whole ordeal. I don't know if I'll be able to recover
This is a rad photo but Daria wore an army jacket!!! Ahhhh
I was gonna say kombucha as well, the experience of drinking it is kinda similar?
Black vinegar and dark soy sauce. I started fiddling around preparing more chinese/asian foods and these Sauces just have SUCH depth and strong flavor, I love it
It's like night and day....I don't even think the kraft stuff is parmesan at all really. Still bomb on pizza though
Ever since I worked at a hippie grocery store and was taught about what GOOD fresh organic food looks like and tastes like, it's impossible for me to go back to things like that, or frozen bags of green giant veg, or pre sliced or shredded cheese and so on. I'll still eat frozen pizza and nuggies and fast food but as far as cooking for myself, never again
What is heel toe downshifting? Are you doing it on a manual vehicle?
That's so wild! How do you eat pasta, or steak? Or do you have pretty specific eating habits that don't include those foods? Lol
Add me on ridewithgps: ratboy
The San Juan Islands are beautiful! Beach access at both, the islands break up the waves so they just gently lap at the shore. Lots of hills. It was challenging for a first timer who hates climbing but I'm ready to go suffer again 🦵🦵

First, if anyone uses ridewithgps, let me follow you!
Today's ride and my progress this year. I've been riding pretty seriously for about 2015. At one point I was working for a bike powered composting service, where I hitched a trailer to my bike and picked up food scraps from peoples homes to bring them to a site to get composted. I'd end up with 200+ lbs on my bike, at 14-20 miles, on my 26+ lb Surly!
Alas, for the past 5 years or so I've become more of a fair weather rider since I moved and it's my rainier where I'm at. Couple with bouts of pretty intense depression and gaining 35 lbs, and I end up back at point A after I build up some muscle and a bit of endurance year after year. I also hate hills lol.
I went on my first bike camping trip a couple of weeks ago, and it was magical. I had no choice but to climb and climb and climb again; the Elevation wasn't that wild but it was just challenging enough. Since then my love of riding has been renewed and I'm going to give myself the lofty goal of 1,000 miles by January. That will pan out to 914.8 miles after today, so close to 200 miles per month. We will see how that goes! I did ride some before I started tracking but I'm going to challenge myself and not count those miles...but now I gotta start recording every ride!

Ooooo this is kinda similar to something I used to do that I described here
The bumpy yellow pad thingies are kind of unsettling now that I think about it
