  • What’s your go-to brew method for camping? I find the Aeropress tough to beat.

    Although my favourite camping coffee memories are with my parents’ beat-up old moka pot and pre-ground beans from the grocery store. I love me a good cup of coffee, but sometimes the best cup isn’t about the beans or the brew. It’s about the time, space, and people you share it with. Some of my all-time favourite cups of coffee came out of that piece of crap moka pot.




  • Seriously, “most modern songs”? In the era with the most new music being produced in a massive number of different genres and styles that would have been unimaginable just a generation ago?

    I like the oldies as much as anyone else, heck I only really got into listening to music after discovering The Beatles and '70s prog rock as a teen. But if you can’t find good music being produced in 2025, that’s not a problem with the music industry, that’s a problem with you.

    If anyone reading this struggles to find new artists they like, I recommend checking out NPR’s Tiny Desk concerts as well as KEXP’s live performances on YouTube. I’ve found a lot of artists I love from these sources.







  • I used to be pretty active in my city and province’s subreddits, and while there were occasional assholes everyone was mostly reasonable.

    I went and checked my city’s subreddit the other day and it has gotten substantially worse since I’ve left Reddit two years ago. It’s all people posting the same trashy racist rhetoric about immigrants. We used to post screenshots of those same takes from the local FB groups to make fun of those idiots, now the subreddit is those idiots.


  • I’m sorry your local drag community sucks so much. There’s definitely drama in our local scene, but on the whole it’s very much a trans-inclusive space here. A lot of the big names in my area are trans themselves.

    I hope you get to find that someday, because a good drag scene is welcoming, and it’s a great way to express complex feelings about gender and deconstructing societal norms and expectations. But when it’s done badly, it can be really bad.





  • My brain is just now upon seeing this post processing why right-wingers always accuse the left of virtue signaling; as always with conservatives, it’s projection. They virtue signal by wearing crosses while definitely not giving a hoot about the teachings of Jesus.

    They can’t imagine someone sincerely supporting a cause they care about and assume we all only do it for recognition among our peers, because that’s the way they use causes. To signal to the in-group that we are one of them.
