That's actually pretty attainable!

Holy Moses, this is a great list! I can't wait to dig into these. And you alphabetized it! :)

I'm intrigued...do you mind giving more info, like exactly what does it help with (brain fog, rage, anxiety, forgetfulness, night sweats, digestive issues)? Because I have all of the above!

I can't wait to see!

Yes, how did I forget her (and Commander Scraps)!

You're gonna do great :)

Ooh this looks dark, I like it!

Here are some of mine:

Jenna Phipps: she's got a lot of creative content, currently focusing on completely rebuilding an abandoned home, but her older content features lots of crochet and sewing (plus her two cute dogs!). I like her for her positive attitude and silly/goofy personality.

Jordan Theresa: she does long-form video essays about pop culture through a feminist lens. I love how she deconstructs issues; she's got a lot of thought-provoking takes. Her editing style can sometimes be a bit too frenetic for my taste, but I might be a bit older than her target audience.

Kidology: another feminist video essayist. She covers similar topics to Jordan Theresa, but with a way less bubbly presentation. She also shares a lot of interesting thoughts about her experiences as an interracial adoptee, and the difficulty in fitting into a culture different to your own.

State of Kait: she does mostly beauty and pop culture commentary videos (which to be fair, I skip a lot of the ones about celebrities), but has started pivoting into analysis of influencer trends and how these can affect viewers. She also talks about being neurodivergent and having a chronic illness, which I find interesting.

Fitness KayKay: great workouts and a positive attitude!

The Fairy Voice Mother: she's a vocal coach who analyzes live vocal performances, talking about technique and music theory. Plus she's super charming!

Angelica Nyqvist: she's a former makeup artist who creates really colorful makeup looks, and shares what new makeup products are coming out. I'm mostly interested in her videos with indie makeup. She gives me a lot of great ideas to try with my own makeup!

I don't know specifically what you're going through, but I can relate. Perimenopause has been rough. Have a hug (I hope this is the right emoji) 🙇🏻‍♀️

Ooh I don't know what a Korok is, but I wanna be friends with this little leaf :) Very cool!

 

Hey friends. I've recently realized that what I thought were freckles is actually melasma, and my dermatologist has prescribed me tretinoin for it. I have very pale skin, generally normal in the winter and a little oilier in the T-zone during the summer, but it can dry out really badly with things like AHA. From what I've heard, tret is pretty drying. My dermatologist recommended that I start with applying it only two nights a week, and using a pea-sized amount mixed into my moisturizer. I use the Tatcha Water Cream moisturizer, which is pretty light and has been great for me, but with tret I'm wondering if I'll need a heavier moisturizer. I'm also worried that my usual double-cleansing will worsen the dryness from tret. I double-cleanse with an oil balm to remove my mineral sunblock, then with the Tatcha Rice Wash to get rid of the sunblock & oil balm residue. But I'm thinking the rice wash might be irritating because it's got a (mild) physical exfoliant, so maybe I need to find something else for my second cleanse?

Does anyone have any experiences to share about dryness on tret, or just starting tret in general? Anything I should be aware of? I'm weirdly nervous about it!

Since the last release, I find that gifs won't play in Jerboa anymore. For example, this comment just appears as a static image for me, even when I click on it. Do you see the same behavior?

Edit: solved by user merde alors:

did you enable "auto play GIFs" in settings>look&feel ?

Then close and reopen the app and that should fix it.

 

 

 

I recently had surgery and while I recover, I've been doing a DS9 rewatch. I just watched The Visitor and I swear, no matter how many times I see this episode, it's always a gut punch. What a beautiful, sad story. Is it even possible to watch it without crying? I almost skipped it because I didn't want to cry today :'(

 

A few weeks ago I posted that my greyhound Greta was in the hospital, and so many of you left such nice comments and well wishes - thank you! She's been back home for a couple weeks now and is doing great.

Here she is with her latest bandage (featuring a G💚 decoration because my vet's office is the best!):

Jerboa devs, thank you so much for the latest updates - I'm really digging the swipe-to-vote functionality! I do find that it's a little too sensitive and registers votes when I'm simply trying to scroll up or down in my feed or a comments section. I guess I don't always scroll in a perfectly vertical path. Would it be possible to decrease the sensitivity for the swipe-to-vote - maybe requiring a greater deviation from the vertical before a vote registers?

Another really helpful feature would be to add vote indicators to the right of comments - the entire rightmost edge of the comment could have a color matching the vote I gave it, or no color if I haven't voted. Often if I'm reading a long comment I upvote it halfway through, then by the end of the comment I can't remember if I've voted so I have to either long-press or scroll back up to find out. Color indicators in the margin would be helpful!
