We’re Alive. It doesn’t feel like a normal podcast - more like listening to a movie. A movie with tons of zombies.

Dry roasted edamame. High on fiber and protein without being super caloric. Perfect for feeling full without having to eat too much.

My parents bought me My Neighbor Totoro when I was a kid. I absolutely loved every second of it. Then I came across Ranma 1/2. Next came Kiki’s Delivery Service. It kind of snowballed after that.

Pets are not investments. They are friends and family. Sometimes you’ll do anything possible to save them, even if it’s spending a ton of money.

Hike the entirety of the AT and the PCT.

Go bikepacking more frequently. Or go on a months long trip.

Make art - photography, digital art, linocut.

Help friends and family with projects.

Amelie. It is by far my favorite movie that isn’t animated.

How to train your dragon (1, 2, and 3). These are my favorite American animated films.

My Neighbor Totoro. Favorite Japanese animated film.

Exactly. This is a terrible idea. I’m fairly certain that anyone caught doing this would be immediately fired at some companies.

It depends on the version, but yes, it does. It’s especially a problem on prebuilt machines and laptops. It is incredibly annoying to work with in a corporate environment. Our helpdesk tech comes to me with issues related to this probably three times a week. I gave up with work arounds and we just have a throwaway Microsoft account now.
