    I've noticed a lot more domains connecting to the website. Are embedded youtube videos (and other websites) apart of these changes?

    spoiler (edited)

    I feel like the site is slower for them but I feel like that is just me and I don't have the same issue on .ml

    edit: I realized that I can just turn off auto-expand media, but I had the setting on before and didn't have this issue so it still might be one of the changes?

    I would love to see her and RFK both added to the debate, even if it's just to watch 3 old men spew incoherent thoughts while Jill Stein tries (and fails) to bring up important talking points

    I just finished reading "What Moves The Dead" by T. Kingfisher. It was pretty good and pretty freaky, especially towards the climax.

  • I'm back on fedora. I'm not cool enough for arch. At least now when I ask a question on reddit I won't get linked to a wiki page that I've already read*. *This is a hypothetical scenario based on if I actually used reddit.

    NOW! SHOW, YOUR HANDS! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMPLICATE!!! It's split into six parts and I think any full videos get DMCA'd, so I'm just going to link the playlist and it should autoplay. This song as a whole is great, and while it has a more raw mix compared to Altered State, I still really enjoy the song and find it to be tied for TesseracT's magnum opus (tied with Of Matter). Enjoy the music, use the privacy-friendly links, and I promise next time won't be Djent. - Vocals: Daniel Tompkins, Amos Williams (Backing, not sure if on album) - Lead Guitar: Acle Kahney - Rhythm Guitar: James Monteith - Bass: Amos Williams - Jay Postones

    Clinton opened her announcement with a reference to a statement she made on her campaign in 2016, itself a reference to popular mobile game at the time "Pokemon GO". "He's Pokemon GOing to jail, there's no avoiding it. Now is a better time than ever for me to tell all of you to Pokemon GO TO THE POLLS and vote for me. It's a woman's turn in the white house; it's my turn". We await more details on the situation and will alert readers when more information breaks.

    I am starting to shave most of my body, but I have an issue, and that issue is a safety razor. It works well for my face, albeit with some irritation. The blades also dull pretty fast, as I have really coarse hair, and this issue only gets worse if I'm trying to shave my legs. It also takes quite a long time to get everything with a safety razor, in addition to it being irritating and also failing at it's one job. I appreciate any recommendation and/or reply, thanks in advance y'all! Also search engines suck, everything is SEO and affiliate links, I promise I wouldn't be bugging y'all otherwise ;)

    Y'all got warned. More Altered State. The first song on this track (Nocturne) is probably one of my favorites on the album, although I might think "Of Matter" is better overall. Going to keep the commentary to a minimum, just enjoy the track. USE PRIVACY LINKS!

I just started listening to TesseracT and Ithink I've reached a point where I am feeling in a completely different mood, but I still crave Djent. Enter "Altered State" calming, angelic ambience, combined with *very* well produced Djent and extremely fitting vocals. There don't even need to be harsh vocals, becuase it just works. Highly suggest everyone, even if you aren't typically into metalcore, djent, or even metal at all to listen to this Altered State. Haven't been listening for too long and I already love it, and that doesn't happen often for me. So here's the first three songs, together making up "Of Matter". (Watch I'm going to end up posting another song from Altered State because the next set of songs is also really good). Y'all are about to get TesseracT spammed (not any more than I have spammed Periphery and Monuments already, remember to use the privacy-friendly links. - Vocals: Ashe O'Hara, Amos Williams (Backing, not sure if on album) - Lead Guitar: Acle Kahney - Rhythm Guitar: James Monteith - Bass: Amos Williams - Jay Postones

    Will I ever post something that isn't Djent? Possibly. Metal? Possibly. This song was probably the most popular off of this band's only studio album, "The Hidden Words". For those familiar with TesseracT and Monuments, this band almost serves as a predecessor for both of them, as Acle Kahney (TesseracT) and John Browne (Monuments) both wrote the guitar parts for Fellsilent. It also features two full vocalists (not a vocalist and backing vocals) who (I think) both wrote their own parts for Fellsilent. One of the vocalists, Neema Askari, would later go on to join Monuments for their "We Are The Foundation" EP, though he left by the time their first studio album was released. Enjoy this track, has a lot of good riffs and interesting vocal parts.

    I love Periphery, so much, I don't know how I managed to go on for so long without listening to their original self-titled album, and I feel like I have been missing out. Icarus Lives, The Walk, Insomnia, All New Materials, and, of course, Light (probably my favorite after listening to the album a lot). I feel like this song really highlighted Spencer's vocal talents, especially with that high note towards the end, and his raw screams work really well with it as well, going from the voice of an Angel to a Wounded Ox. The guitars are also really good, but it's Periphery, of course they are. I don't know if my Periphery-posting will ever end, by the time I've been on here for a year I will have probably posted all of P1 (+ the Juggernauts) and The Amanuensis (Monuments, not Periphery) so enjoy!

    I am currently going through a lot of gender questioning, and I want to know how you all discovered your gender identities, or if you are still questioning yourself. I think that I am probably not cis, but as we all know, gender isn't black and white. I'm identifying as non-binary right now, but I have had a lot of times throughout my life, including now, where I may have wanted to be more feminine, or even a woman. Especially after lurking on this site and looking at the trans megathreads, I find myself relating to a lot of what is being said. Overall, I recently feel like I have either hit a wall or just opened up a part of myself that I thought I had already solved, so I think that the experiences of others might help me figure myself out. P.S. I don't know if this is the appropriate comm, it made a little more sense than the trans comm, since it said it was more of a meme comm, and this is not a meme. Mods, please take it down if it's the wrong comm; I'll repost if I need to.

    No, not the Netflix series, another Periphery post! It's overall just a great song, as well as a great closer to the companion albums *Juggernaut Alpha* and *Juggernaut Omega*. It might be my favorite album closer out of all of theirs, but I enjoy Lune as well so it's very close. They have very different feels, and if you haven't you should totally listen to the Juggernauts; together they are probably one of my favorite musical albums *period*. They're also concept albums, if that would convince any of you to listen.

    I feel like Periphery-posting today, so that's what I'm going to do. This song is different from a lot of their discography, but I find it to be one of my favorites. Something about the melodies and their harmonies are just really beautiful, and it's enough to bring me to tears a lot of the time I listen to it, and I don't quite know why. I hope you all enjoy this song as much as I do.

    Back with Monuments, again, but this time the music has a different feel. While still roughly fitting into the same genre, this track (as well as the rest of the album, *The Amanuensis*)features a single vocalist with more pop-inspired cleans, and the guitars and tone differ from the "Gnosis" album and the "We Are The Foundation" EP. Enjoy, and remember to use the links I commented for privacy and a proxy. - Vocals: Chris Baretto - Guitars: John Browne, Olly Steele - Bass: Adam Swan - Drums/Samples: Mike Malyan

    It looks mid (my camera work is not good, nor is my food presentation), and at least the vegans have probably had it, it's TOFU SCRAMBLE! This dish is quick and easy while being packed full of protein, some fiber, and B Vitamins, courtesy of the nooch. I had another brand that gave it a much more vibrant yellow color, but I found a cheaper one so here it is. It's overall pretty good, though a bit basic (veggies like broccoli can be added on), it packs great in a thermos and does *not* reheat well, in my opinion. Makes 1 Serving, Approx. 430 Calories What you'll need: - 1 block of tofu, extra firm (14 Oz) | - 1/4 tsp of garlic powder | - 1/4 tsp of black pepper | - 1/4 tsp of salt (add more if you like saltier food, I do not) | - 1/4 tsp of turmeric | - 2 TBSP of Nutritional Yeast (make sure it has the B12 if you need it) | - 1 TBSP of Olive Oil (or oil of choice), you could use less if you like but I can't guarantee your pan will be easy to clean! Instructions: - Collect dry ingredients in a small dish, mix | - Heat pan around medium-low (3 on my burner) | - Pour Oil into the pan, spread around the pan | - Take out tofu, put it in the pan, then "scramble" it (break it into fine chunks) | - Add dry ingredients to the tofu in the pan, mix into the tofu | - When it's warm enough for you, it's done! Though it's probably been done before, even this way, I wanted to share this recipe because it is something that I eat a lot, and I would like to think it's pretty healthy. If you actually use this recipe, even if just for the dry ingredients, let me know what you think! I've been tweaking this for a while, and I'm willing to tweak it more if anybody has any suggestions. (Could someone demonstrate how to make lists on here, I couldn't figure it out and the formatting came out a little wonky)

    Asahi Linux is interesting, to say the least. To say the most, it seemed to stutter a lot when I was first using it but that stopped. Ended up running KDE Plasma, which is still on version 5.27 as Fedora is still on 39. A lot of software is not available, and a lot of flatpaks tend to have errors that their RPM counterparts do not have. I have kind of given up on flatpaks for this install, to be honest. The actual install itself was pretty easy, but removing it was another situation involving one script that I though was the complete script, but the answer marked solution on the fedora forums was wrong! I thought I had already bricked the laptop, but a lot of troubleshooting and eventually a complete revival (yes, that's what it was called) fixed the issue, and I was able to get the installation the way I wanted it. Still working on setting up, but it seems to be working. I would obviously reccomend it to anybody who already has a macbook, it's stable and has all of the software I needed (not wanted, sorry Civ 6), including Mullvad VPN. However, if you are looking to get a new laptop, unless it's the only option (![screm3](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/14e6a1eb-6a4f-4b95-9e4b-6f6276af0c90.png "emoji screm3")) I would recommend getting something x86_64 because the ARM processor is simply not up to par with x86_64 in terms of software availability and comparability (flatpaks). The battery life is much better though, I will give it that. I don't know how macbooks tend to fair against other laptops with similar specs, but the screen and lid-durability are much better than on my old laptop (it had stress marks from me opening and closing it so much).

    This is a bad post, you get no further context.
