I have websites that provide technical information on several subjects.
I don’t have ads, I don’t SEO. I just enjoy sharing free knowledge on the internet.
Link? I have a similar thing at samartean-rares.com/. I post whatever info that felt relatively hard to get to me, practical work or whatever I think people may find useful. And yea I don’t think anyone found my website so far but it’s whatever.
Playing guitar. It’s just tops. A lot of people know I play since I’ve been doing it forever, and I’m pretty fucking good at it these days, but I’m pretty sure my brother is the only person to have ever heard my songs since I last played in a band, and that’s only because he asked to hear them. He describes my sound as prog-doom-metal, which makes sense given my influences.
I make endless dadjokes irl. I don’t care if anyone laughs or reacts. They make me happy
Donating to KDE and Signal. Though now that I’ve said it, it’ll sound like I do it for validation…!
I donate a small amount to Wikipedia every month
Alright here is your validation
Take my canoe out on the nearby lake.
Write little web apps that no one but me uses.
I create open source apps (mainly for my own needs). All of them have zero forks and zero stars, but I don’t mind. I love architecting apps and who knows if someone might find any of them useful someday.
Well give us a link and let’s see if they are useful to any of us!
You’re awesome. <3
I’ve been repairing a 25 year old Golf 4 1.4. Everyone has been telling me it’s not worth it, dad wanted to buy a “new” one at some point (read: newer SH car), my grandma thinks I spend way too much money on it.
My biggest spend was the 750 euro paint job (bodywork was completely messed up). Besides that it’s been only minor work. I still have a slightly rich running issue to fix.
Nobody thinks I should be doing this but damnit I am not buying a newer car. It will be just as if not less reliable but cost twice as much to repair stuff on it. No thanks.

I post and share photography. Some of my works that I think are mediocre get a lot of attention, and some of my most-loved works are nearly ignored.
But I post for me.
I enjoy seeing your photography and outfits in my feed. You’re a great contributor here :)
Thank you! I put my whole self out there.
Gorgeous shot. My favorite times of day are just before sunrise and sunset, sometimes you get the most spectacular light and color. Where did you take that from?
This came off the Tilikum Bridge over the Willamette River in Portland last night!
I make music as a hobby. It’s one of the few things that I enjoy doing and have been consistent with. I like to hear how my sound has changed over the years, I started with making trap beats now I’m into bass production. There is soo much depth to the art, there is essentially an infinite amount of knowledge and skill to obtain.
Another thing is house plants. I like how beautiful they are, and seeing them grow, and taking propagations. I’ve also grown trees from seeds, in fact I just picked up a bunch of maple seeds this week that I’m going to plant, now I’m waiting for some acorns to drop.
Holding the door.
It’s just the bare minimum we should be doing for each other.
I am asking because I stream really boring streams all the time. People are welcome to tune in and check out, and there is no expectation of interaction at all. If someone gets some joy out of watching someone fly in a flight simulator listening to chill music for hours at a time, that’s great.
It reminds me of this youtuber, who has thousands of videos with almost no views.
https://www.youtube.com/@TheImprovysseyPicking up trash when i am walking.
I don’t do it everytime. But sometimes when i see trash on the ground and there is a trash can in the near I will pick it up.
Yeeee absolutely! I always wash my hands when I go back inside my house anyway, so if I’m heading back and on-foot, I’ll pick up random stuff if I see any.
If anything sharp is where feet or tires will be, I’ll always go out of my way to pick it up though, even if it’s not convenient. No good!
Keep doing what you are passionate about ❤️
Personally, I enjoy making neat, easy to follow step-by-step tutorials for my various interests and forwarding them to people who want to learn something I know about. Growing up, I didn’t have anyone to show me things and it was often overwhelming having to figure everything out on my own without a clear starting point, so I don’t want anyone else to feel the same way or to feel ashamed for not knowing something.
I love languages so I would also offer free translation for people’s projects upon request and would also translate song lyrics when translation software was much worse than it is now.
When I can, I donate anonymously to causes I support and donate blood too.
Donating blood has got to be one of the things one does that is just absolutely selfless.
If someone does it to brag or to rizz, they could just lie and say they do it. But actually doing it? 🤟
I tried out to become a donor but my iron levels were too low. 😭
I do it for the biscuits at the end
That being said I haven’t been able to for 6 years now, the organisation that handles it (EFS) does not let you give if you have spent some time in Mayotte (among other places), where I live. Concerns about malaria I think
Out of curiosity, what does EFS stand for?
Établissement Français du Sang
Society of French blood suckers. ;)
It’s two days off, paid, up to a maximum of 10 per year in Croatia. You give blood five times a year, aim for a holiday and can nicely round up a two week vacation.
That’s pretty rad. We just possibly get a T-shirt (I never have lol), sometimes tickets to shows or something, and definitely added to a phone list of “WE URGENTLY NEED YOUR BLOOD” robo-calls from half a billion numbers.
…But I try to get over my needle-phobia long enough to do it occasionally.
I learned my blood type that way. That could save valuable time in a future emergency! Lol
Wow, that’s a luxury. We don’t get that here. Great incentive.
Happy cake day!
Down voting positivity 😆🫰
I almost passed out just listening to someone talk about the benefits of donating blood, blood tests and vaccines result in temporarily losing colour from my vision and needing to lay down for a while to recover. Did register for organ donation back when it was opt in though.
Why did you pass out? Phobia of blood or similar?
I don’t seem to have any problem with blood in any other situation. Probably more from needles under the skin.
Yeah I’m not a fan of sharp things entering the body at all. I’m okay with vaccinations. I look away and let them do their thing. But like, people getting stabbed and stuff, that gives me chills. And stuff going into the skin close to where there are bones, like the hand and foot. Like an IV e.g. Yuck.
I’m the exact opposite. I’m okay with knife wounds, they get my adrenaline pumping but it’s a problem to be solved, so whatever stress it brings can only be focused into taking the steps to solve it. But needles are way more subtle, the concept of this thin little thing slipping between skin to sneak stuff into the body or pull blood out, leaving barely a trace that anything changed. Logically I know they’re great, and I’m very pro-vaccination (ironically part of my job is importing vaccination records for a school district for nurses to track) but the subconscious part of my brain cannot handle it. Needles just give me the heebie jeebies. I’ve been squirming nonstop the entire time writing this.
That’s so crazy how we can be so opposite 😄
The scary part about knives for me is how actually dangerous they are. Like people getting stabbed can die just as easily as from a gunshot wound. Knives wreck one’s insides. And when people stab people they usually don’t just do the one stab. It’s often really going all in. 😭 And like, the feeling of having been stabbed and losing your life semi-slowly. So scary to me.
An excellent human.
We used to stream and YT vids for the love of it but got burned out. Now we’re trying to get back into YT but this time with animation. We’re not very good at animation mind you, but we’ll be trying regardless x)
Yeah man, I just started a shitty little motion graphics based YT shorts based on serial killers and true crime, I love making those picture move.
Ooo can we bug you for a link? Always love finding new story animations in yt :3
Sure, but it’s just little motion graphics based in my own shitty voice. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/nnh4x3De6uc
