He was positioned in a safe area, in the open and away from water.

I'm no expert, but that definitely looks like water behind him.

Man that headline made me think people were killing their partners with the goal of getting tougher sentences...

Hahaha my god you should make a collage out of those photos of her, I'd love to see these.

Also, sorry for what you went through. My birth mother is a narcissist, so I can relate. It can be quite liberating to have fun at their expense, though!

  1. Meditating (not very good at it, but getting better and it's seriously helping)
  2. Blocking Reddit on my router, blocking political communities in Lemmy
  3. A consistent, normal sleeping schedule (a bedtime routine is more important than a morning routine, imo)
  4. Yoga every morning to help my body work with me throughout the day
  5. Reading more books
  6. Getting outside more often
  7. Paying closer attention to the thoughts that cross through my mind and stopping them when they're not helpful - this also helped me realize the underlying anxiety that's been with me for who knows how many years
  8. Drinking more water

Edit: Oh I also:

  • Quit drinking alcohol, almost at the 1 year mark
  • Quit smoking weed, almost at 2 months fully sober now

I did these things one at a time, not everything at once. Mostly just sharing what I did here, but if you plan to do the same - listen to yourself. Start with #7 imo so you get a better idea of what you're up against. If it feels like too much, take a step back and slow down. You're not failing when you do this, you're helping your future self not fail entirely.

Edit: facepalm I'm just noticing this is a community for the Boost for Lemmy app, not the official site. Please ignore me.

~~In your account Settings, scroll down to the Languages section and select Undetermined and other languages you'd like to see.~~

~~It's not 100% foolproof, because as others have stated, the language tag isn't required. But it significantly reduced most of the foreign-language posts I was seeing on the All feed, without impacting the feed in a negative way (AFAIK). For the remainders, you can just block the community if needed.~~

I copied it via Google Lens and pasted into a file to read.

YMMV.Dear

Thank you for you

I am so glat you are interested in stick insects Tattoo and when I was your age talve kept son. They are indred fascinating

There are at least two thousand five hundred different species world-wide Most come from the tropics and only a love spectes ever reach this coustry. Sowstifically speaking they belong to groep called the Pharmaton which coesaink bei enguthe left and the stick insects

Suck insects exally do Soksactly like this gyvonvo impossible to spot to the wars they move. They don't, in fact, dering the day but quite a lot during the night. The kind that is usually brought er here are nearly freies and lay eggs that are fertile without having being fortlined by the The egy look actly like their dropping and sometimes people who keep them don't one that and throw them away when they are duning out their sages

The one of which you sent me a photograph, however is tot, howeverak sext. ft's a leaf insect. There are many many ferent species of these as well They vary in the food they prefer and many eat other kinds of leaves than the hawthorn and be and which you say yours perfer. Many of them are even more Chelves than yours, with owtht on their legs that look

I believe so, yeah

I'm totally guilty of this myself for my work stuff (Edit: I WFH and everything still has either 2FA or MFA enabled), but saving passwords in your browser is risky. Browsers can be tricked into, for example, populating your credentials into hidden fields, thus exposing your creds to whoever's on the other end wanting that data.

I'm certainly not going to stop doing it myself, so I'm just recommending that all your passwords at least be unique for each account. I use a password manager to store them all, that way I only need to remember one master password for all my accounts.

Just a heads up, I just encountered a bug with their 2FA. I logged in, got prompted for the code, pasted it in but accidentally hit Cancel instead of Submit. It took me back to the login page, then just logged me in. I've been able to repeat the process even with expired codes, but not with codes I make up on the fly.

Yeah wouldn't it also be like super cold inside from the temp not being 72F prior to them entering? I mean if it was cold enough to freeze the pipes and all, seems like just they'd be able to tell what's what as soon as they opened* the door.

Edit: Fixed a typo

[–] devAlot 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah screenshots would be great. Dug through the post history a bit and only found one other "It happened again" post, no ss, gave up on locating the original after a few pages. I did find this one where OP might have clicked a potential suspicious link, which could be related.

Also curious to know if it's just a visual glitch or if OP actually has full access to another user's account, like inbox messages, ability to make posts as them, upvote/downvote, etc.

OP, I recommend downloading a screen recording app and recording your logins on the off-chance it does happen again.
