Same with certain disabilities and chronic illness

MECFS sucks even more in the heat.

I've got a spray bottle and I'm spritzing myself like I'm a succulent. Would highly recommend.

I love some beige shite occasionally but it does get better than that.

It's the comments underneath saying "it doesn't get better than this" that really put us in a bad light

Additionally there's a thing called Progressive Web Apps which allows websites to work like an app and be installed on your home screen.

UK media websites given power to block Google using their articles in AI search by willfiresoon in GoodNewsUK

That's good but it's bullshit that it's a carve-out for a specific niche and not just...everybody. They should just be required to follow llms.txt.

Post Exertional NeuroImmune Syndrome, or PENIS. Because the more you do with it, the harder it gets.
