I'm constantly having to block porn shit on tumblr and all the stupid bots that come with it.

I work for an app and there's lots of roles to fill and things to do.

You already got a lot of responses but I love https://www.rtings.com/ for vacuum reviews. They show all kinds of vacuums too.

The body knows iron is hard to uptake

I had to take iron supplements in the past because my periods were so bad that I would lose my vision and pass out from loss of blood.

I understand, I felt insulted how you mention that there are services offering a choice in viewing selection of ads that was offhandedly thrown it out there like it is the norm

Sorry about that. I guess I think of it as the norm here because its a package that's offered. Anyone in the US can go get it if they have the funds for it and want to pay for it.

What other choice do you want there to be? I'm all for being middle of the road. I mean, I'm bisexual. I'm a fence sitter. I like the third option or the pick all option the most.

But when it comes to ads, how do you get a middle ground? To me, an ad is just that. You see it, or you don't see it.

From everyone in this thread, it seems like most people just choose not to see the ads. And that's a fine choice isn't it? Or do you want the ad's to not exist at all? Like is it upsetting that you have to decline because its like a yes or no question?

I'm not actually feeling too hopeless cause I'm in big favor of that writer's strike and I hope it goes on as long as possible. I don't give a fuck about new media. Halt that shit forever. We clearly needed a break.

I am not sure why cable tv is getting roped into vhs and dvd

Because that was an era. Back when we had Cable TV, we bought VHS tapes and DVDs. It's like living in 2004 in my apartment. Its like the closest I can get to a time machine.

And both VHS and DVD's had ad's on them. VHS tapes always started with trailers and ad's for either merch or production companies. DVD's would often have extras that were just ad's!

My VHS recordings are actually from a site I don't have access too anymore but I'm not the person who recorded them. They're also from like decades ago. No one at Adult Swim is hurting cause I have a tape from one of their blocks in like 2003 that has all the ads in tact and includes shows they don't even run anymore.

I just grew as a person I guess. I'm not the same person I was 10 years ago and I'm sure I'll be different in the next 10 years if I'm still around.

I also cut a lot of people out of my life and cut a lot of certain interactions out of my life. Like for example, I got of 4chan in 2020. I use to be a troll - the kind of person OPs post is complaining about - and now I'm very against it. I always prefer to be honest online instead of just saying whatever to get a response.

I try to have more good faith discussions now instead of antagonizing people.

But I said I sounded like you 10 years ago cause I remember hanging out with people in person, at their houses and at parties and on the streets.. I felt like an observer. It felt like I knew a lot about other people cause I was always listening in.

What changed is that I stopped listening in on those people. Went out of my way to go meet other people instead. Now I'm not seeing those patterns I use to see among the previous groups I hung out in.

I have some faith in humanity but only because I sit around theorizing how to make things better. It's just a theory though. So I know its possible but to make it happen, would take the kind of work and time I don't have and I have no reach.

4 of those blower kerosene heaters. Blast those bastards until it’s just hot enough that it don’t melt your records and bam, problem solved.

Makes sense because that's how some places treat for bed bugs. The pest control place I worked at would partner with another company who did heat treatments on bed bugs for more intense invasions - think homeless shelters that are infested with them.

The issue with heat treatments is that in order to get it hot enough to kill them completely, you end up taking a lot of stuff out of the apartment/room.

I hated going over the lists with people on how to prep for bed bug treatments cause I had to basically ask them about everything in their home in case it would catch fire or just melt.
