I like this a lot. It makes me wonder about some of these though, how "very scared" doesn't necessarily mean "petrified" or how something could be "very noisy" without being outright deafening. Super useful as a way to break the habit of saying "very" all the time, though. This is all more just me marveling at the minute nuances in English though.

I'm pretty much also in the boat so thanks for writing out a lot of what I was already thinking, lol.
I absolutely do have some imposter syndrome but what I've chosen to do about it is be completely open with others about having it (I don't advise this if you're a doctor or something like that, I'm in a creative-and-thereby-totally-subjective field). I found that being open about it or anxieties has in turn made others more open in turn, and it's made the nagging voice in the back of my head a lot quieter.
My best advice for you OP is to learn to really, truly forgive yourself. For little blunders or whatever else, learning to not beat myself up over mistakes or embarrassment was life-changing in terms of being able to curate a sunnier attitude toward my own self.
Once at SFO the precheck line was as long if not longer than the regular security line, but it still moved significantly faster. Don't panic too much if the precheck line is long! Not having to unload electronics out of bags and such seems to make it quick even if there's high volume.
I haven't experienced it (yet) but I saw comments yesterday talking about downvote bombers. Definitely not your imagination.
I'm a bit curious in this too. I don't have an answer for you but totally anecdotal, I do notice I feel noticeably better even just halfway through a liquid IV which I've never noticed with any other sports drinks.
There are a lot of bots still here so I wouldn't be all that surprised.
Conversely I'm having the similar issue of blocking one community but then different communities with the same name and content still appear on my feed as if I never blocked them at all. Like playing whack-a-mole.
Agreed, I literally blocked that community because I was tired of seeing his name all the time and all they ever post is shit about him. I really don't get it.
I've had dandelion leaves boiled (to soften them) and then sautéed in oil, garlic, red pepper, and some other herbs. Honestly they were way way better than I was expecting, a kind of unexpected but not unpleasant flavor. My regular grocery store sells dandelion greens though.
Am I missing something or is this setting not available on Android?
Yup, that's the one!
Lordy this one is so specific I'll probably doxx myself with it, lol.
Small town college in a pretty red (enough) state, one store in town to buy any groceries unless you have a car and can get to the bigger stores in the next town. Black kid gets tackled fleeing the shop by the son of the shop owners, initial wave of gossip blames racial profiling by the white owners and the students start boycotting the business. College itself gets involved and stops purchasing food for the dining halls (baked goods, etc.) from the shop, severely cutting into their business margins. Turns out the kid was actually shoplifting, and if I remember correctly was shoplifting alcohol while underage, and it becomes a huge fiasco (as if it wasn't already) with the police getting involved and I think the business sued the college. Not positive how it ended as it mostly happened right when I was graduating.
There were news articles about it online as it got to be a pretty huge deal with the lawsuits and everything. Partly posting this to see how many other people from there at that time are on here (I suspect more than a few).
Edited to add - turns out there's an entire wikipedia article about this, so have fun anyone who searches for this lmao.
My best guess is very open as in very truthful or honest? I've heard it sometimes described as someone being transparent but that's definitely not the first thing I'd think of with either word.
