I think the worst profiles I’ve found are the ones that list who they don’t want – which, surprise surprise, is often an independent woman who’s got a personality and decision making skills.
I’ve found more than one insulting feminists and a guy who stated in capital letters “MAKE WOMEN GREAT AGAIN.”
All in all, a lot of yikes. It is a hellscape out there. Stay safe.
Haha I feel this is a love-it-or-hate-it scenario.
I’m on the “love it” train. Dehydrated durian is so addictive!
I already put I use an iPhone SE, but I've added the year because the detail might be relevant. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks for your answer!
It is true it seems to vary greatly. ExpressVPN went very easy on my phone battery and was on 24/7. I guess I got unlucky with Mullvad VPN.
I just want to get an EU alternative, which is what prompted the change, and Mullvad seems pretty trustworthy and safe.
I found out about anxious preoccupied attachment and how it fits into some really upsetting, toxic behaviours I was catching myself in and which were upsetting me a lot, because I couldn’t understand what was happening. I’m now reading about it and its link to past trauma.
Understanding how it presents itself and why is my first step to overcome this!
The spoiler formatting doesn’t seem to have worked 🫣
I gotcha ;) You’re welcome!
My pleasure!

I finally started Little Nightmares and I’m loving-hating it.
I didn’t know I’d get so easily scared by the grotesque ambience it has, but damn.
Taking lots of breaks to breathe so it’s taking forever!
Starting Little Nightmares today… orrr at some point this week, depending on Life™️.
Those of you with knowledge in the Way of the Bicycle, I need counsel.
Let me begin by saying I know nothing about how to repair a bicycle, and mine is a cheap one for cycling in the city.
One of the bearings of my front wheel said life is not worth living and broke down to pieces and flew off.
The shop tells me I need a new wheel. I took the ailing creature back home, removed the wheel and the axle, and found myself with the situation shown in the picture.
Is the piece at the top, still around the axle, part of the fallen bearing or part of the axle? It won’t budge, and the other bearing is impossible to remove because well, it turns. Because it is a bearing.
Do I need a new wheel? A new axle maybe…? I was hoping to save a lot of money by replacing the bearing myself, but it looks worse than I thought.
Thanks beforehand!
EDIT
Thanks so much for all your advice!
Tried the flathead screwdriver and WD-40 to get the inner bushing out, but it was impossible.
In the end, I got both -the bearing and the inner bushing of the bearing- out with the help of a bench vice, a hammer, and some personal frustrations.
The axle looks good and so does the thread.
I’ll now check the rest of my bike for any non-repairable issues, and if nothing appears to be wrong, I’ll buy two new bearings (the one I have left has “6000-2RS” on it) and go to my local repair café, because they way you all describe it, putting on the bearings is delicate business.
Here are also some photos of the hub and the spokes linked to it. I think everything looks okay with the wheel, which is why I found odd the full replacement. I want to believe it is simply because it is easier for them.
Oh interesting. By “self-service” you mean “self-praise”?
