All good now.

It is a problem with guake.

Na, peas and gravy is great.

I’m running Linux Mint, I installed eza, which is nice but the icons are not showing up correctly.

Do you know how to get them to show correctly, I installed ‘nerd fonts’ but I’m not sure I got the correct one.

Don’t worry. It works fine in the regular terminal, it is just quake that is giving me issues.

I understand that.

Because I don’t need to tie it to a visual metaphor, a lot of complex concepts, especially math, I find quite easy.

If you think that is strange, I can rotate 3D objects in my head but there are no images.

Try well aged hard cheese, most of the lactose is processed by the microbes. Naturally fermented yogurt is also low in lactose, but it needs to be thick and only 2 ingredients (milk and culture), if it is runny or has thickeners, avoid.

Good quality butter also has minimal lactose. It should basically be 100% fat.

Be careful though, it may be a dairy protein intolerance rather than lactose, usually this is more severe.

My inner monologue, is just a stream of words, it isn’t encumbered by a voice.

I was 41 when I realised…

Ok, why does it seem like I first read a few months ago… Went it came out.

Have I been reading XKCD for 20 years… FFS

I’m definitely not unflappable, I still get angry. But it fades quickly.

I imagine that would be really annoying, like how do you process unhelpful emotions; if when you think about them they start back up?

I have this, but for mushrooms…cooked mushrooms have the worst taste, the smell gets into the rest of the food and ruins it.

That is a great way of framing it.

It isn’t like that.

e.g. So a situation I get angry / sad about happens. Unless it keeps up the feelings wane over the next few minutes, thinking about the triggering events does not bring back the emotions…if I want to stay angry, I have to really work at it too keep the emotion going, it is never “worth” the effort.

If one thing makes me angry, and I haven’t had a few minutes to let the emotion fade, and something else tips me off then the anger builds at the new thing and fades for the old thing; it just happens faster.

In saying that, I really don’t get angry all that often; as I have worked through most of the things that set me off. Except bullying, that still fucks me off to no end.

I can’t stay angry; I have multi-sensory aphantaisa, this comes with not being able to re-experience emotions.

I remember that something made me angry, but I can’t relive the emotion. It lets me dispassionately examine the past to see what made me angry and thus work through the trigger and try to reduce it in the future.

There is the downside to this, it is on all emotion, so I also can’t re-experience happy emotions either.

I would eat that.

Same, 1 point because no Blockbuster in NZ

It is the only way to eat them though.
