GrapheneOS puts Play Services in a sandbox so it’s no longer rooted. You can restrict what parts of your filesystem each app has access to very strictly.

For now people still send me emails on Gmail, so I still have Gmail installed, but very limited permissions.

It’s a huge improvement.

You can also start sessions that entirely shut down Play Services so you’re living entirely with FOSS products.

I’m not quite there yet because I still use maps and drive and photos. Gonna figure out replacements, unfortunately nobody else has the traffic and live rerouting that Google maps does, even if you are willing to pay.

If you’ve got a pixel, highly recommend. If you have a different relatively recent phone check out lineage or e/os.

Penises don’t have bones in them, overall body size is a poor indicator of penis size.

Not a dollar to the DNC or a DNC candidate.

Never, ever again.

You know, working together on something outside might be absolutely the ticket. Genius.

This place actually kinda kicks ass if you’re there. It’s a strange project to have taken on, but it seems to have been done sincerely.

The botanical gardens nearby are also nice.

Broad nose, similar beard, similar smile… Without my glasses I could mistake thumbnails pretty easily.

Well those sound like people who aren’t good to open up to.

I do sympathize though, I pretended to be a guy for several decades, and my wife put exactly the same kind of duality on me that men put on women.

I was expected to be sympathetic and nurturing in some contexts and aggressive, jealous, and demanding in others, and I was just supposed to know when to switch.

And there was an amount of vulnerability I was able to display, but beyond that I’d get told to suck it up.

I think somebody needs to come up with an ad campaign that’s Therapy For Men. Big sweaty hairy guys with thick beards looking after each other’s mental health like BROs. It worked to get men to use soap.

(Seriously, I think counseling is too female-coded for a lot of men to be comfortable with it unless they’re fucking the person, or they start to want to fuck the person because they’re unused to talking about things).

Thick slices. Toasted hard. Butter. Honey.

What a disgusting pair of people.

Wow, one musician is Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans, and Quuer, all at once?

Dayum, talent.

List doesn’t include Zohran, meaningless.

Nadella has lost his mind

Haven’t missed a primary since I’m 18 and I wish more people knew that primary polling spots are alway staffed by attractive young flirty people giving away free burritos.

The thing is a lot of people think they’re built like that because they’re comparing to their best angle, gut muscles posed, etc.

This guy looks like that schlubbing around waiting for something to happen.

Big difference.

Voting for whomever the Democrats wheel out on a gurney will not achieve this.

When I saw Windows 11.

If she wants more men, Alaska is calling.

But also, maybe she’s entering her mid-50s and guys aren’t as interested.

I’m nearing that age but look younger. I’ve had this experience more than once: chatting with a guy, they will be interested, during the course of the conversation they learn I’m 15 years older than they thought, and they’ll just click off.

Which is kind of odd to me, like, you liked ogling me well enough 5 seconds ago, and I didn’t think you were exactly evaluating me for prospective matrimony…

I was gonna say, you need 16 rounds before reloading for self-defense? Are you Pablo?
