RandAlThorApple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.”
And this is why having 3rd party app stores is important. It’s why it matters that Google is killing side loading, if two fucking companies get to decide what you can do on your phone, we’re in a bad spot technology wise

No doubt. I’ve gotten to the point where I have like 6 apps on my phone and it’s in lockdown mode on iOS. And I’d be on grapheneOS if I wasn’t required to use iOS for work.
jqubedCan you have your job pay for an iPhone while you have a different personal phone? I’m a big fan of keeping a work device that’s separate from a personal device.
I probably could, but I’m also a recovering drug addict and my partner is pretty hesitant about a second device as it’s another way to hide things. However I’m the head of the MDM team so I’m not really nervous about what the company can see
I thought you were head of the MDMA team for a second and thought that could be rough as a recovering drug addict
ryannathansDefinitely got the experience required for the job
Oddly I’ve only tried MDMA a few times and it never really worked. There’s some anecdotal evidence that it doesn’t work for those with bipolar which I do have, that might be the one drug I could be in charge of with no temptation actually
Hey, just in case you haven’t heard this before - maybe book an ADD/ADHD test if some of the indicators resonate with you.
I have a diagnosed friend who also said the same thing about stimulants not having the expected effect. It’s apparently common for drugs like cocaine and MDMA in people with ADHD.
Thanks, very nice of you to send me these links. The thing is for me, I refuse to see my ADHD tendencies (never officially diagnosed, but pretty sure) as any kind of illness or shortcoming at all. It’s just the way I am. Fortunately I have the luck to live a life where it doesn’t affect me negatively, so I don’t see a reason to question it.
The links talk about cocaine having a calming affect instead of a stimulating one. That’s funny, because I’m not even sure if it has an effect at all, I’m to dense to really notice any effect. To each his own.
By the way, i just came home from a nights out and I’m on amphetamine, which definitely has an effect in me. It cures my anxiety and lets me feel at ease. I’d never write these posts without it. Drugs are strange…
I wish you the best my friend!
That’s a perfectly healthy & grounded view, my friend. :) Apologies if I came across as pushy or like something that “should” be done. It’s awesome that it doesn’t impact your daily life!
Drugs are certainly an adventure and hit everyone differently. Sometimes the adventure is life changing, be it bad or good.
Wishing you the best too! Hope it’s been, and continues to be, an awesome night. Thanks for the wholesome exchange <3
caseyweedermanKnowing more about yourself and giving yourself more tools doesn’t have anything to do with seeing it as a “shortcoming”
