Cutting down on YouTube and social media.

May 27th, 2020April 11th, 2021 Charles

I’m not cutting my daily usage of social media in this lockdown, but I am cutting down on the number of people I follow. I want to enjoy what I have, who I follow, and life in general.

iWork with iOS again.

As much as I love Samsung’s DeX concept, I longed to rejoin the iOS ecosystem. Well…it finally happened.

Reclaiming my body.

I reclaimed my body on this day, exactly 8 years after others shamed me for it.

“Englishman In New York”

The definition of manhood…is the old-school way of saying what it means to be an adult.

Afraid you lost your “safe space” because of the covid pandemic? Find a new one.

A little birdie told me…

Worth a thousand words.

Changing up my diet, from “whole foods” to one based on frozen meals. I am a creature of procrastination, laziness, and sloth. So, why not work it to my advantage? There are PLENTY of decent options in the frozen foods section; I just look for ones that have veggies in it, add some of my own frozen or diced up veggies, and it’s a complete meal to help me meet my minimum 4-6 servings of veggies per day, with tangerines for brunch to help meet my vitamin C and fruit allowance. Not doing anything special, a little bit of everything, if it’s on sale and has veggies in it, I’ll eat it. Cottage cheese, sauerkraut, diet soda to help keep hunger and snack queues in check. #hungry #frozenfood #frozenmealsdoneright #weightloss #eatingless #gettinghealthy #gettinghealthier

(#NOTsponsored) After well over a year away—because I had to purchase my blog’s “premium” domain from another registrar, transfer other domains to said registrar to centralize them all, and due to purchasing in bulk out to the max 10 years for .com domains—I **FINALLY** have been able to transfer all 6 domains, based on my #chosename/#preferredname, nicknames, and #deadnames, that lead to my @wordpress #blog. More about this at my blog, link in my bio. #blogger #blogpost #blogpost #bloggerstyle #bloggers #bloggerlife #domain #domainname #mydomain #url #webdomains #deadname #dns

Blogging is my hobby.

I accept no endorsements nor sponsorships.
This domain is not for sale.

I am a trans man (he/him) entrapped in the iOS ecosystem, wasting too much time watching YouTube, drinking too much coffee and alcohol (sometimes together). I have ideas, not beliefs. Read up on the rest of my stupendous biography.
