Interesting. I'm usually wired in the morning, crash late afternoon/evening, and then get wired again at around 11pm.

Straterra didn't do shit other than make my libido nonexistent. Ritalin has worked well for me. I know people who felt like they were in hell while on Ritalin. A lot of it is trial and error since all bodies process them differently.

I will say, there are genetic tests you can take to see which medications are tolerated well by your body. I took one and surprise surprise, I had the markers for straterra not being well tolerated. Also if you have other family members who have ADHD and are on medication it's a good idea to ask them since your genetics will be somewhat similar.

That's insane that they have so much power to begin with

Not being careful is what got me into this whole mess 😅

As per my previous post regarding Instagram, it was suggested to me to add it to a separate profile on grapheneOS. I have a couple of questions about it:

1.) Does the VPN on my main profile apply to my secondary profile

2.) Do I even need a VPN on my second profile if the only thing on it is Instagram and most permissions are off

3.) Is there a way to transfer selected images/files to the secondary profile

Any other tips for limiting Instagram's tracking are welcome as well. EXCEPT for "Instagram bad get rid of it." I am already aware of that.

I have an old-ish dumb TV. Just look around on something like Craigslist and you've got a good chance of finding one

Dude, you don't know anything of my situation. Why are you being so judgmental when I just asked a question. I'm not asking for lectures like this, which is why I made extra sure to clarify that I already know that Instagram is bad and I have to use it for a set amount of time.

I want to preface this by saying that yes, I know that Instagram is bad. I am planning to get rid of it in the future but as of now I have to keep it for communication with people who are only on that platform.

So I have grapheneOS, use protonvpn (free version), use mull as my browser, and do not have google play services enabled on my phone. I do have some apps downloaded through aurora store such as Instagram, whatsapp, mychart, and mint mobile, but the rest came from f-droid.

I have noticed multiple times that after having private conversations on matrix, I get Instagram content in my feed that is scarily accurate to the conversation I had on the other platform immediately after. I know that things discussed in Instagram direct messages and group chat will give suggested content based on those conversations, but I get stuff that that is very specific to what I have ONLY discussed on matrix and didn't look up via my browser.

So my question is how is Instagram doing this and what can I do to mitigate the spying it's doing on my other apps. Thanks.

Hey y'all,

I stumbled across this free extensive course on permaculture by Oregon state university on YouTube. Thought y'all might be interested.

1.) Your automatic watering setup is DOPE.

2.) Hope the morning glory doesn't escape. I have a problem with it in my garden and I didn't ever plant it to begin with...

What is Druidry? (druidry.org)
submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

“Today, far from Druidry seeming like some arcane fringe activity, its preoccupations are now centre-stage. They address the most urgent and important issue of our time: how we galvanize all of our potential – practical, creative, intellectual, and spiritual – to protect and restore the Earth.

They address directly the gaze of Greta Thunberg and her generation – our children and grand-children – to say: we are committed to our love of Nature to the fullest extent, with all of our being – all looking towards the same horizon: a world in which every human being has enough to lead a happy, healthy and fulfilling life without suffering injustice, without terrible inequalities between rich and poor, without the destruction of habitats and species, without the pollution of our skies and seas.” Philip Carr-Gomm

Druidry appeals in particular to people who have become disenchanted with much of conventional religious practice, and who are seeking a sense of spiritual connection with the land, and with their ancestors. In today’s fast-moving and environmentally-threatened world, they are looking for a sense of rootedness in Time and in Place, and for a sense of reverence for the Earth."

Despite the bad news, it's good to know that there's still people out there that care and are actually doing something about it.

I'm thinking about making a druidism ~~instance~~ community to discuss the practice and share stories and the likes. I'm not strictly opposed to it being a more general nature spirituality instance, depends on what y'all are thinking.

Anybody interested in joining and/or modding one?

Edit: I meant a community, not an instance. Got my Lemmy vocabulary mixed up. My apologies.

Edit 2: The community has been made. Go to !nature_spirituality

Boneset is a pretty common "weed" in the eastern US. It's easy to find in wet, disturbed habitats.

Uses:

-Fever

-Anti inflammation

-Colds

Do NOT consume in large amounts. It has mild liver toxicity and thus should just be used when needed.

You're so right about Ms. Frizzle. She'd be the perfect teacher in a Solarpunk world.

Agreed about the frequent field trips. It's more important to get out than people think, plus it helps people realize learning isn't just for in the classroom.

This can be the way things are taught, who are the teachers, what a school day would look like, where classes are taught, what things what look like, etc.

Love this! Most of the solarpunk media that I see is city-based, and as someone who lives in a rural area and loves being rural, this is an awesome concept.
