You're not alone in taking a while to adjust. Circadian rhythms are kind of important to proper functioning. One study found that heart attacks increased coinciding with switches to and from DST. Of course this is only one study. Would need quite a few more before I could draw conclusions.

Hm I wonder if generative AI could somehow be used to create fake user behavior to obscure my real behavior.

Ah yes, socialism for corporations and for us peons, go fuck yourself-ism.

that atheism is a belief like any other, it is not fact, and it is not science, it is a belief.

For me, personally, I have not found or been presented with sufficient evidence to believe in the existence of any sort of deity. I don't consider it a belief so much as a lack of belief until sufficient evidence is provided. Which is a perfectly sensible default position towards any claim, really. My reason for deconverting was due to adopting much more stringent requirements for believing religious claims.

Only science is science. One's thinking and epistemology could be scientific or non-scientific, though. Science depends on using good quality evidence to inform our theories.

I think I will stick to my dumb watches, thanks. Mechanical or quartz.

This is almost me, except the sense of relief I feel is proportional to the amount of stress experienced. Which is often much higher than it would be if I were NT.

Channel 7 journalist Liam Bartlett says in the promo that "children are being told they should change from boy to girl, or girl to boy, from as young as 12-years-old".

Oh look, bullshit trans hate.

We should live in a world where if a child has gender dysphoria it is OK and they can express themselves however they want and be whoever they are.

.. instead of having hateful gasbags like this pour hate on them for being different.

None of this asshole's pearl clutching has anything to do with protecting children, it's about rejecting and destroying people who aren't like them. Whether LGBTQ+ or black or brown or neurodivergent or whatever else.

I think it matters when people who aren't hateful assholes take a stand and accept others visibly, vocally. I guess it will take a while to change and unfortunately hateful bigots are a fact of humanity but hopefully our efforts make sure there are fewer of them.

Pretty sure most phones are. Wtf is it with women's clothes and those bullshit micro pockets anyway?

My first android phone was one with a physical slide out keyboard and damnit I really miss that. This is brilliant.

I wonder if I could load a newer OS on that old phone.

"And with it I will take over the Tri-State Area!"

I'm pretty sure it's been like this for a long time, too
