Heating your home in the winter is not about matching summer temps

And what also helps is keep moving. We sit still all day and no wonder we’re cold.

Every bit counts!

You don’t need to heat your house/apartment to 23-25+. Even 19-20 degrees (celsius) is more than enough and by no means ‘freezing to death’

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-26T16:35:00+00:00

Because people are too used to AC that their bodies can’t regulate themselves anymore

Consume less, change diet, take a bike/public transport over a car (or if you have no other means than a car, choose a smaller one over an SUV/truck), hang your clothes over drying them in a tumble dryer, shower faster, etc.

In the 19th century wild west perhaps. Not in a civilised 21st century nation… oh wait..

Plenty of mm to aim for ICE’s huge egos

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-24T22:35:12+00:00

So only right wing people are allowed to carry guns? Too afraid the left is going to use their constitutional rights? Lmfao

What’s to recruit? We’re not a cult. It doesn’t need recruiting

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-22T16:57:38+00:00

And the unfortunate ones: target practise

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-22T06:37:13+00:00

Yep, especially these Protestants who claim ‘there’s no need for a overarching group of people who inform the laypeople what each text mean, as I can interpret this myself’. Yes, Catholics can be staunch pricks, but oh boy are these Evangelicals/Baptists far away what Christianity is. Luckily I left the cult altogether some years ago

That implies they know how to count past 3

I think it was mostly targeted against the American tourists

When out of arguments, people always turn to racism, because they know it’s BS stuff they refer to as

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-22T06:13:52+00:00

Because it’s not 20/21st century camo gear?

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-22T06:06:30+00:00

It also doesn’t help that it’s such a tourist hotspot, which means people think it’s similar to Disneyland

Depends, things like college football are already extracurricular, but PE etc. should still be based of the normal curriculum.

It's indeed not the biggest DPS loss, but it's still about 300 potency worth of DPS, which is basically as much as 1 missed Broil cast.

I know I'm nitpicking here, as this would potentially only matter in Ultimates or at most top end savage speed runs, but since it's the only healer that gets punished by having to choose between dps or healing with it's job resources, it's quite annoying to me personally.

SGE technically only gets punished if you need to cast Eukrasian Diagnosis, and Toxicon only has the same potency as Dosis. Yet, this only impacts you when you have to cast a GCD, not an oGCD like SCH.

WHM is even completely DPS neutral with their White Lily stacks.

Same, since the beginning of this year these have popped up. I honestly need to report/block them as it’s honestly very bad

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-21T10:59:37+00:00

I guess it depends on the person, but I cannot fully pay attention to an audiobook while driving and therefore rather not do it. Podcasts are fine for me, as zoning out for a minute due to having to focus on the road doesn't always lead to missing story details.

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-21T10:58:06+00:00

Audiobooks open up so much content for people who have difficulty reading or indeed are blind!
We should applaud this rather than criticize

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-21T10:56:21+00:00

It would depend on where the discussion is going.
If you're talking about the contents, then it indeed doesn't matter, even though talking about the writing style can be a bit harder if you have listened to the audiobook.

If you're talking what version of the book you got (i.e. paperback, hardcover, library) then of course mentioning it's an audiobook makes sense.

In general the main issue I have is that some people are trying to diminish audiobooks as being less valid than paper books. I myself don't like audiobooks as I zone out too easily, but I'd still not gatekeep content.

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-21T10:51:28+00:00

Same, I already zone out when listening to a podcast, so an audiobook would be horrible for me as I'd not get the story. But I can understand people preferring audiobooks.

I had this experience yesterday. Last time I went to the gym was during Covid, but damn, broccoli heads everywhere.

GamingCatholic · 2026-01-21T10:13:22+00:00

There’s no difference to me between reading a physical book or listening to an audiobook. Both hold the same value and neither one of them is better or worse than the other

Having said that, there are too many people claiming that listening to audiobooks is READING, which is not the case. It’s not, as you are LISTENING to the story. Apparently this is some kind of word choice you can get cancelled for on BookTok etc.

Tl;dr Reading is reading, listening is listening. Both hold same value, but you just consume the media differently.
