If I had to guess maybe around 5 pairs of sunglasses, give or take. I own a pretty reliable pair of sunglasses right now that I have had for over a year. These are high quality polarized sunglasses too, maybe a little under a hundred dollars. I kinda wish I got them sooner because I haven't lost them yet surprisingly.

The AC in the house I live in was broken for a long time until it got repaired recently, but even then by dad never turns it on to save money or whatever. I'm pretty underweight too.

What I'm trying to say is that it's nearly always hotter outside than it is in the house.

When I say the floor is comfier I mean it, no mattress or anything, and at most I use the support of a pillow or two. I live in an area where it's consistently hot, where it really only drops below room temperature in the winter, so for a good majority of the year so falling asleep is difficult. The hot weather makes couches and blankets pick up heat too easily. Even if I lived in a cooler area I would still detest beds and couches since I tend to find soft surfaces to be rather unpleasant. On the other hand, the floor, which usually carpet, usually has a hard surface with a consistent temperature that makes it enjoyable to rest on. I like hard wood floors too since the cold feeling is nice I find to be pretty refreshing, but not in a thirsty kind of way if that makes sense.

The feeling of being skinny grants way more satisfaction for me than food ever will. I wish to stay out of the sun as much as I can so I can be pale forever.

There's a work around to this, I mean you could just rub the stuff off and not apply it to yourself, hypothetically.

Still new, but:

  • No (or less) hissyfit powermods
  • Less strict, hopefully no stupid bans
  • More privacy respecting
  • More tightly knit
  • Better front page, Reddit is just stale as of now

Gen Z (2006) here, I definitely grew up with the internet since I was born after it became mainstream for the public. Before learning about the internet I was restricted to an iPod which I got when I was a little older than 5 years old which was restricted to a few games, ones of those were minecraft. My only exposure to the internet at the time was going to my grandmas where I would watch minecraft videos on her TV or play games on her laptop. This is when I first grasped the concept of the internet, in which I didn't see it as an information library at the time but more so easy fun since I wasn't "really" on the internet. I was like 10 when I started using social media, but even then most of it was just YouTube and later Reddit.

I'm pretty impressed by the collection of knowledge the internet has, it's definitely a step up from the community library I went to when I was a kid but now I only go so often. More so in my early teenage years I mostly used the internet for communication since I was mainly on mainstream social media platforms. Nowadays, I mostly use less mainstream platforms because I was blind to how corporate and monetized the internet was for the past two decades. I also use archive.org a lot to watch anime, movies, and read pdfs since I don't have to pay for the real thing. The internet does have an upside, and I would say my favorite part of the internet is its convenience. As for my internet usage, my parent's didn't really care, lol.
