xkit rewritten (@addons) has an option to hide the activity notification badge in Tweaks, if you'd like!
omg thank you, that's exactly what I needed! I wasn't sure what kind of sub-menu it would be in

as someone who regularly ignores the activity feed for weeks or months at a time, I'm desperate to know what extension it was in the former xkit that kept me from seeing that little number constantly. it's none of my business what 1-paragraph text post people are wildly misinterpreting
#like the one where I said the benefit of SHARING my writing was getting attention/money#and all the fucking writers with no reading comprehension started going 'ummm I write because I love it and I'm better than you'#I have so much shit I've written and never SHARED because I love writing#but it's okay that I also love attention sometimes and thus post my words on a publicly available website

what’s your usual task when listening to audiobooks? i try to use them but I can’t focus unless I’m doing something else and then I get stuck in the solitaire zone
walking, mostly. but then also other repetitive things that don't use the same brain energy as reading, like when I do my metalsmithing there are lots of parts of the process that are more repetitive and then it's fun to have a book going while I'm filing or polishing or whatever. sometimes I listen in the gym, though I know a lot of people would never stray away from music.

it really is wild when you start getting SO into audiobooks that you recognize narrators. I'm like "Emily Woo Zeller? Jessie Vilinsky? Orlagh Cassidy? This is going to be a great time"

la-pou-belle Everyday I become more certain I have no fucking clue what murderbot is. At first I thought it was an indie video game, then maybe an animated TV show, at one point I thought it was a book by someone like terry prachett that got adapted, now I think it's a podcast???
it's a book series by Martha Wells, starting with All Systems Red. I'm just an audiobook person. I think like a couple weeks ago they started putting out a TV show on Apple TV, but I haven't watched that yet.
For my fellow audiobook people, I highly recommend starting with the original recordings narrated by Kevin R Free, and then rereading with the Graphic Audio adaptations mainly read by David Cui Cui but with a full cast
I've had a rough couple weeks but you know who's always there for me in my headphones? Murderbot

it's kind of a question of is he hot or is he just 6'4"
is he perhaps getting the guaranteed pussy from short, nearsighted women who cannot see his face clearly way up there
do we really think a very ugly man would consistently have guaranteed pussy :3

also while I'm on a streak of chicagoposting I would like to brag that last year on Mother's Day I went and saw Death Becomes Her while it was still on its starting run here and I only paid $25+fees for the tickets, and it's very fun to see people discover the show now

vaityadil shrimp dewhatnow
it's a delicious garlicky shrimp dish covered in breadcrumbs. I've lived in the greater chicago metropolitan area for most of my life, I've never had any reason to think this isn't a dish on some menus everywhere
in doing some light research to make sure I was giving correct malort information, I've stumbled upon the wikipedia page of Culture in Chicago and I am flabbergasted that some of these things are only found around here or originated here. What do you mean Shrimp DeJonghe is a Chicago dish. What do you mean flaming saganaki is a Chicago thing.

#'what if we rename it Northalsted' what if you go to hell#hot take but getting rid of the name really seems like you're telling the queers to gtfo now that it's all nice and gentrified
