Don’t forget to try sorting by comments instead of posts! I often forgot that button exists.
About 20 and growing. I also do it for my mental health. Social media isn’t a place I want to take too seriously so my blocks are about avoiding people who seem agitated or seeking to create or participate in conflict with other members.
I’m thinking about clearing out my blocks every year just to get a sense of the land again, maybe when I’m feeling better I’ll do that.
140 in 2 months sounds like a lot to me. Are you not blocking communities? That might be more efficient?
The forum I used to spend a lot of time on in my youth was incredibly active - comments all night every couple minutes. The regional areas where practically dead. What we need are thriving core communities not critical mass. I like not being bombarded by thoughtless and judgmental comments
I’d guess that 50-100 active users could make any community feel vibrant. I’ve noticed when I post in a smaller community it can get solid responses (fast replies from a dozen or so users), but they die out after a day or two and people need to be posting all the time to keep it up.
At this point I’ve blocked so many .world communities that I don’t see that as much. There are some users who I notice bring the reddit antagonism and I tend to block them too. If I come across a post that is full of reddit quips I just block the whole community. I guess I’ve blocked fewer .ml communities overall.
Ya it’s not bad. In the popular areas it seems like I can get away with just commenting on things but smaller communities I need to make a post to make it feel not-dead in there.
I’m quite attached to sensodyne since I have gum/cavity issues (genetics…). I want the science in my mouth. I don’t know how much of that belief is just good marketing but I’m afraid to test it.
Zombeavers
I haven’t but this is the second time it’s popped up today so I’ll put it on now.
Return of the Living Dead (1985)
I watched this recently. Actual not-dumb characters is sooo nice. I’d written this off as just yet another Romero style zombie movie but it has it’s own thing going on. I think given how much I liked Tusk (saw it last night) and Dale and Tucker vs. Evil I have a soft spot for R rated horror comedy.
Pontypool pairs well with 30 days of night (and Tusk pairs well with The Substance).
My boss doesn’t do meetings. Every once in a while he approves my vacation request and I get notified it’s approved. Sounds better than it is, but it is better than pointless daily meetings. Adult daycare crap.
This is lemmy so they’re probably angry Germany isn’t bombing Israel like Iran

I’ve been trying the trial/100 searches a month. Using very sparingly, but I like how it pulls up actual sites instead of ads disguised as websites. Idk if I’d pay $5 or $10USD to use it though. Bit steep.
Millionshort is another one, haven’t used them in a while. The results were meh but nice that you can filter out major websites.

What’s loom?
Lol did you really?
I used to leave aspirin on the canker, that burned it away.
make more foam when you brush
I always buy a specific brand toothpaste (turns out it is SLS free) but broke from my routine and bought crest or colgate or something. I use a small amount but I have to empty my mouth of foam midway through brushing. I hate it. Gross.
I also have a canker sore but have been brushing my teeth more often (with the crest) thinking it would help. I guess not.
I have another toothpaste (clinipro) which is not foamy enough, I always feel like I’m running out of toothpaste as I’m brushing.
I replaced mine with a usb cable. No batteries.
