I have a younger brother and a younger sister.

I don’t really speak to my brother. I see him a couple of times a year when the family gets together but we don’t have anything to talk about anymore. He’s autistic so maybe he can’t help it but he’s impossible to have a normal relationship with. He’s never had a job because he cant be trusted with any kind of responsibility. He can’t stay away from alcohol if it’s available and he can’t handle it at all. It’s always the same when he drinks. First he gets overly excited and it’s very awkward because his whole personality changes. Then he gets easily irritated and gets into arguments about petty stuff nobody cares about, but he just can’t let go.

He regularly texts family members about how they have let him down when he’s getting drunk at night. He gets way more support than he deserves though. Once he just texted me “I’m sorry” and turned his phone off. Naturally I got worried when I couldn’t reach him so I called mom, she told me not to worry though, turns out he just does that sometimes.

My sister and I get along much better but I worry she’s losing it. She’s easily the smartest and most socially capable of the three of us but she’s never had a job outside of telemarketing and now she’s too depressed to work at all. We don’t have many relatives but the few we do have have a tendency to end up alone, bitter and severely unhealthy as they get old, and it’s starting to seem like that’s where she’s heading.

I’m very worried they’re both gonna come ask me for money when our parents are gone.

The Morning Star by Karl Ove Knausgård. Only read the first couple of chapters yet but I’m enjoying it so far.

Unless it’s something like fabric softener. Then some brands might use price per 100 ml while others use price per wash.

Metric system still rules though.

It’s fixed now, thanks!

I wish I had read all this when I got a new computer about a year ago.

Good for you then, apparently there’s some problems with Windows 11 and fastboot whatever that is.

It’s a 7t Pro and it doesn’t show any signs of slowing down either.

Do you also have Windows 11?

Why the shit does this link take me to the community in Voyager but the link in the main post opens in a browser?

I have a Oneplus and as I understand it they are relatively easy. I’m definitely capable of bricking it anyway but that’s ok.

I do have Windows 11 on my computer though and I read that might complicate things. Something about recognising the phone in fastboot.

I start out with the Fermi paradox and might end up anywhere. And once every now and then I read about those two Dutch girls who got lost in the Amazon jungle.

Right now, escape to the gym and lift some weights is all in want to do. Summer holiday with the family is fucking killing me.

Overnights oats is great. I make it with 1 dl oats, 1.5 dl oat milk, ½ mashed banana, salt and maybe some nuts or berries.

Conversion to metric.

No movie ever made me suffer as much as Climax by Gaspar Noé. I highly recommend it if you want to have a horrible time.

What are your stance on Threads? I assume we’re defederating them but I haven’t seen any announcement about it.

Great news, now let’s hope every instance follows.

This is a real issue and it isn’t talked about enough.

It’s cool but I miss quite a few subs that I think should be big enough to be on here. If there’s only memes and tech news I’ll get bored soon.

That junk you get out when you floss actually smells just like bad breath. Might seem obvious but always good to keep in mind when you’re feeling too lazy to floss.

I’m doing it with Vivaldi!
