Gorgeous photo! Coron is cool. Great wreck diving around there, plus that amazing cave dive.

Pickled herring. Cannot stand any of the many versions of this.

I don’t understand Sønderjysk at all - a regional accent in the south of Jutland in Denmark, near the border to Germany.

Great song, great new album from them. Love it.

BOTW is one of my all time favorite games. I hope you give it another chance. If it helps, there is no one right way to do things, so no need to feel stupid.

Yes, the new album (At Peace) is amazing. I’ve had it on repeat since it was released.

Greenland is semi-autonomous, but currently still definitely part of Denmark. Article 5 would apply to an invasion here, if Denmark should choose to invoke it.

This is my plan too - going to use the Easter break to kick off a new playthrough of BG3, can’t wait!

Women aren’t a monolith, just as men aren’t. There are women who will appreciate your emotional openness, especially if you are able to regulate and communicate those emotions in a healthy way.

Edit to add: my relationship to my husband has only grown deeper as he has learnt to better access and express his emotions. In particular, he is working on accessing emotions other than anger, and this has really helped us grow our connection.

I play pretty much exclusively on handheld these day. The last thing I want to do after a long day working, is to sit at my desk some more.

I have a Switch and a Steamdeck, both are fantastic for different purposes, and both let me game while relaxing on the sofa or anywhere else.

I usually bring one of then when I travel for work as well, great for killing time in airports or while flying. I’d highly recommend the Steamdeck for your situation - it’s definitely worth it.

Awfully optimistic of you to assume he will be gone in 4 years…

I have been on a nostalgia kick, listening to mostly 90s punk. Turns out a lot of songs written during the Bush era feel highly relevant now (ex NOFX, Bad Religion, Rancid, Social Distortion, Dropkick Murphy’s, Choking Victim, among others).

This also lead me to looking into other related bands that I didn’t listen to before. Currently I am really enjoying discovering the back catalogue and new releases of both Rise Against and Propagandhi.

I am in a long term relationship, so I’m not walking around looking for options. However, I am in my mid-forties, and I genuinely find people (of any gender) around my own age the most attractive, including on a purely physical level.

Anyone younger than mid-thirties or so just look like children (not literally, but it’s the best analogy I can think of). I don’t find them physically appealing. I obviously cannot say if this will continue to be the case as I get older, but as of right now, it’s true.

No. I agree with the comment about the electoral system and gerrymandering as fundamental issues. And the current administration does not respect the judiciary branch, that much is clear, and their actions are completely undermining the supposed divisions of power, without which there is no democracy.

Obviously, don’t try to do much at once :) But as a woman in your forties, resistance training is highly recommended! It’s a great way to ensure functional fitness, and it’s the best protection against developing osteoporosis as we head into peri-menopause and beyond.

So, if you are able to add that in, it will definitely be worthwhile.

Congrats! This is awesome. As someone who was in this place a few years back, I can honestly say that your future self will thank you for sticking with this.

About 5 years ago, I started working out consistently, and it’s the best thing I’ve done for myself in a really long time. Once it became a habit, I missed working out if I couldn’t make it for a few days. I crave it now. I am in my mid-forties now, but I’m fitter than I was for most of my thirties, and I have more energy for things.

So great job for getting active again, and stick with it! You will be so happy you did.

I’ve lived outside my country of nationality for years at a time. I’ve realized that I probably feel Scandinavian first and foremost, my nationality coming second to that.

I am not at all from a tech background. I have a humanities/ social science educational background, I work in the organizational management space, for a humanitarian organization.

I do not enjoy a lot of social media, but I had been using Reddit for 8+ years, as my only social media platform really. I enjoyed it for the specialist communities focused on niche interests. I’m hoping to replicate some of that with Lemmy, which is much more aligned with my value set than a large corporate run social platform.
