All my practical exams are over and only theory is left, that means this year of my senior high is over and I have been feeling a bit down lately which I have discussed elsewhere, but how was your week?
Hope you’re doing as good as you can. Lost my wife of 4 years a bit over a year ago. It fucking sucks. There’s no way to describe the pain of losing someone so close. It doesn’t really get better with time, it just gets duller and you learn to live with it. I found it best just to surround myself with family and friends and just ride through the waves of emotion.
I’d say it was average. Nothing too exciting but nothing too bad either. I am going away for a ski weekend with a few friends, which I’m looking forward to.
I remember reading somewhere (probably my high school textbook) that one of the reasons people don’t like wind power being built is they cause visual pollution....

I have noticed that I interact a lot more in Lemmy than I ever did in any social media. Let it be Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter… I am used to be the lurker, but here for some reason things are different. Wonder if more people feel like I do.
I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.
When someone asked me recently what I’m into I didn’t have answers. Existential crisis aside, what are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?
Mid 30s here and just started guitar a couple months ago. So many great resources online and you can practice pretty much anytime anywhere. Have had a blast and even got my 2 year old son into it. Been a lot of fun learning parts of some of my favorite songs.

I'm 33M, single dad, and recently widowed. My son takes up a majority of my time and I love just about every moment with him. In my spare time I'm learning guitar and enjoy playing video games with friends. My job is in software engineering and I enjoy tinkering with computers.
Had a Motorola phone since the very first droid. Loved the clean interface and lack of bloat. Picked up a pixel 6 a year ago and never looked back. It's everything I like about Motorola but with a better camera and better OS updates.

What silly inconvinient stuff would you outlaw if you could?
I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.
