Got any good resources on setting up pihole? (competence level: generally high, but unfamiliar with raspberry pi)
So this won’t be a comprehensive guide because I am dumb as fuck. But if a smoothbrain like me can figure it out and have a pihole ready to go, then any one can.
My main resource I used were these guides from Tom’s Hardware and Privacy international. The offical Pi-Hole site also has a damn good guide to help you get set up from what you need to what to do.
What you need first is a Raspberry Pi with at least 512 MB of RAM, which all of them have. You can buy one from here or you can check out Raspberrypi.com for where to buy the different Pi’s.
Then you need an SD Card that is at least 2GB large to hold the OS, make sure you have all the cords and cables as well. And personally I like having my Pi in a case just so it looks nice. Whatever Pi you get make sure you check what cables it needs to work. Like the Raspberry Pi 4 I linked needs Microsoft HDMI to output video.
Once you have those basics set up and you have your pihole up and running, you can set up your blacklists. You can use the default one, but personally I like the one provided by the guys at Firebog. They have a LOT of amazing blacklists. From blocking purely ads. To ads and trackers. To even going as far as blocking Adult sites and such. There is a lot of customization you can do with your blacklists it’s amazing. Just, don’t expect it to block ads on youtube as those are hosted on the site itself.
Piholes are very set it and forget it, but make sure you are very thorough when setting one up. Because missing one step is such a headache to deal with. I also highly recommend, when it asks if you want to set up the web server, that you do. It allows you to see the traffic of what was blocked what was allowed, and update your lists and such from your web browser on your computer or phone.
Oh also, when you are setting up your pi-hole. Make sure you select to EITHER have it use Ethernet OR Wifi, NOT BOTH. That was a mistake I made. It used both, and got stuck and confused and wasn’t able to work at all. Once I deactivated the wifi and let it use only Ethernet, then it was good to go. And when you are selecting which PiHole OS you want to run, I HIGHLY recommend going with the Lite version. It’s purely Commandline OS, so it is super light and can run on anything. The GUI OS also works well but if you’re running it off of a weaker Raspberry Pi, it will be very laggy and an absolute bitch to do anything on.
So yeah, pi holes are a bit of a pain to set up, but once you are good, you are GOOD.
Good luck, and report back if you had success or need any help. My dms are open and I will do the best I can to help however I can.

when i started watching Good Omens i wanted a silly rom-com with fantasy elements, not a modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet with themes that force me to process my religious trauma

Alright. Your turn Makoto 😈🌡️
my favorite silly workaholic that doesn't ever take a break

also yea I I headcanon that if a homunculus gets ill, then their fever flush is pink instead of red. Due to their blood. (tho I've said this before... XD)
Also, since it's likely illness cannot kill a homunculi...and Makoto doesn't trust nor depend on anyone for help...
yeah...
he basically puts himself out of his own misery ;-;
since he's a perfect one he'll come back to life in 24 hours
Healthy tho? Who can say... 🤷‍♀️
its a 50/50 chance... (nah more like 80/20 lmao HE MUST SUFFER)

one of my favorite pregnancy things to think about is having your partner resting their head on your bump. it's such a soft thing. they want to be closer to the baby, to be able to hear them moving or feel their kicks against their face. it melts my heart even more when said partner decides to fall asleep cradling your belly with their head on the apex of your mound of a belly and watching as the baby shifts around, making their head move but still being asleep despite it all
Oh....oh my goodness 🥺🥺 you're so right this is fantastic. Ugh, I wanna raise another idea alongside this.
Laying in bed with your partner and while they sleep they're just cuddled around your belly, one because its nice and warm, two because they want to keep you safe, and three because they love being close to the little one. Maybe they're usually active around the time y'all go to bed, so it's prime time to feel for kicks, let the baby listen to songs with their headphones (hell, maybe there's a playlist), and just talk to them, saying how much both of you love them and how excited y'all are to meet them! God, the domestic stuff always gets me i swear.

I normally don't make posts like this but...
Tumblr media
Am I the only one who notices how toxic this is on Shiver and Frye's part? Like yeah, Big Man shouldn't have collabed with the Squid Sisters behind their backs, but did it really deserve a beating like this? Not to mention how downright manipulative the lyrics sound...
Maybe I'm looking at this from the wrong angle, and if I am I deeply apologize. But these are just some observations a friend of mine pointed out.
Friendly discussion is encouraged, please do not start a flame war in the comments. Thank you.

When you say Lucien or Azriel deserve better than Elain, please tell me what you mean.
I can't figure it out. What does make Elain such a bad person? Is it the flowers? The baking?
And if you come at me with "It's how she treats Lucien" then get fucked.
Why would she give him a chance? Why would she neglect her own happiness for a male she doesn't even want? It's clear that she doesn't, Lucien knows that. Everyone knows that. I am so tired of this argument because it's fucking stupid.
And now to Azriel, why does he deserve better than Elain? They have the same amount of character development. They have the same amount of page time. They are both barely talking. They are both mysterious. They even get compared
What makes Azriel better than Elain?
Because from where I see it, it's just blatant misogyny.

I'm fully convinced that in the Epiphany episode, Tim immediately knew that Martin was either into Jon or himself after Martin said he wasn't into Sasha (and of course knew it was Jon after he asked if Martin was actually into Tim), but he didn't press it (you know, after asking if it was him) because he didn't want to legitimately embarrass or upset Martin

I feel like I'm in a bleak place, not suicidal but not high strung and chipper either. Like I'm stuck in sand and really wishing I wasn't cheap and got the locking rear differential. The wheels are turning but I can't seem to hook, trying to rock my self out ain't helping and I'm low on gas...

OKAY THOUGHTS NOW THAT IM NOT HIGH ON COLD MEDICINE LOL
I enjoyed it! I was waiting for an indication that ed and stede had reunited in season 2 before I started watching and im glad i did that season 1 ending would have DEVASTATED me
I really was surprised how much I enjoyed the supporting cast, every crew member is really fun. Jim is obviously My Love, I want what they have, but Olu is also such a great character, and Lucius & Black Pete, who I thought I was gonna dislike from their early banter ended up being faves
Cold Medicine and Autoplay made it really easy to sit down and watch the whole thing in one sitting but I DO think I did myself a disservice not breaking it up into chunks. I'm curious about the supernatural elements that are being introduced??? DID BUTTONS REALLY TURN INTO A BIRD??? So many questions
I look forward to being able to actually understand all the meta stuff you reblog now instead of just reading it and nodding
Black Pete has such a great growth arc, I love him so much. And yeah, the end of season 1 is rough, you can see why it hit me in a particular way!
I may be less online for reblogging metas until the last three episodes are out, because I'm avoiding spoilers to deal with Le Anxiete, but after that: watch out :D
And I'm soooooo glad you liked it! There's a lot about it that I feel like is in the same emotional range as Balance in a way that sometimes I can't always articulate, and sometimes there's a feeling of [spidermans pointing] to find a TAZ fan in the OFMD fandom.

Tell me why my HEALTH teacher is the one to make jokes saying “People with binge eating disorder are the ones that end up on My 600 Pound Life”. She’s not even trying to hide that she finds it hilarious.

I love all the positivity about t4t, but sometimes people make generalizations about trans people only being into other trans people as a while or being down on relationships with cis people, and like. Actually my relationship with my cis bi bf has been incredible and healing and it's been amazing to see the similarities and differences in our struggles. Actually oppression isn't a monolith and in some ways he's faced more oppression than I have even though I'm trans bi and he's cis bi because people are more complicated than simple Oppression Olympics hierarchies. Actually being in a relationship with a cis person has it's own unique struggles and joys that aren't about whether the cis person is supportive. Actually cis partners absolutely can be supportive and loving to trans partners and that's a standard we should hold them to. Actually good cis queer men are a beloved part of my community
Like, I'm not going to comment on anyone's post because I realize a lot of people are just trying clumsily to be positive about something that's been helpful for them and to share their experiences. But you don't speak for me.
