I dunno, they’re eyeing you like YOU might be on the menu before long.

This hits close for me in a slightly different way.

I kept up with very few high school friends past college, but one was my best friend who, to my knowledge, is straight. We regularly exchanged messages, and even though we were geographically challenged (he moves around the country/world a lot), I fell harder for him year after year.

About 18 months ago (14 years we graduated from HS) I finally expressed my feelings, shortly after we got together in our hometown for the first time in a while. I received no response and haven’t heard from him since. He’s not homophobic and the worst I expected was some temporary awkwardness, so I was totally unprepared for that.

While the crush has mostly worn off because of this, I’m still devastated that I seem to have lost my longest and best friend. So mine isn’t so much a story about one who got away as it is being spurned by one I trusted. I’m a bit bitter right now but I do hope to reconnect with him some day.

+1 for Fastmail.

I’ve been using it for about 3 years. I’m on the Standard plan (middle tier). It’s $4.20/mo. per user when prepaying for 3 years and ranges up to $5.40/mo. for monthly billing.

Not sure if there’s a (practical) limit on domains or aliases, but I have 7 domains and a few aliases plus a wildcard. Includes 30GB of storage per user.

I really like the lighting in the second photo.

While I love the first two for their almost psychedelic quality, I don’t know that they fit here for a banner. But I’d love to see them…somewhere. They have almost a gamer quality to them.

I like this , but I see what you’re saying about the backgrounds. I think it would look great with transparent backgrounds so they’d blend in with the theme.

I haven’t read it, but thank you for sharing. I’ve placed a hold for the e-book with my library.

The “collapse” of the government in a parliamentary system means the government no longer commands the confidence of a majority of the (typically) lower house, in this case the House of Representatives. Nothing immediate happens, although the prime minister may (or may not) resign, a “caretaker” government takes over until a new elections are held.

Here, it sounds like one of the four coalition parties has pulled out due to disagreeemnt over immigration, which the coalition parties had never agreed on.

Yeah I have the same problem. I've been testing both Mlem and Memmy and I was in the former when I first saw your post. Switched over to Mlem and the image doesn't preload and I don't see a way to open it.
