It’s a film of goo. If you’re in a kitchen of a smokers house and a tea kettle or boiling pot goes for a bit, rusty drips will form on the ceiling and down the walls. There’s a filmy goo to it if you get it on your hands. It’s a piece of what needs to be cleaned then painted over, sometimes multiple times, to lock it away.

I guess if there’s no context for it, then it’s a mere sepia tone or some such.

I could not find a listing for this paint of yours.

Smoking.

Do you know why all the wall paint and curtains of the 70s and 80s never included pristine white? Yes, that’s why. I’m convinced the choices of golds, oranges, and browns were just giving in to the inescapable film of nicotine tinge on everything, everywhere.

To this day, when I see “cream”, “ecru”, “chiffon” or any other creative name for not-quite-white, I think of nicotine stains.

Restaurant smoking was the worst.

I’ve never, and this is likely why. Growing up in that acrid awfulness was a great deterrent.

You become impossible to text without it. This only works once, so choose well. We do WIRE, have for years.

The issue is FBM is something you can find just about everyone on. Pulling people off that is difficult. So you’ll need to incognito to yank them off.

It’s like this. Your front door is left open and while, magically, no one can touch or take anything in your house, strangers are allowed to enter at will and eyeball everything, see all your bills, your kids stuff, your laundry, dirty and clean, etc. How would that ever be ok? And yet we say this is ok electronically every day.

DuckDuckGo

Dude, no. That is NOT what’s being discussed here. Nor is it ok.

It’s good to see focus on the two men behind the curtain instead of the orange distraction. That 1A speech was very very scripted, nuanced, and scary. More smoke and mirrors. The only piece of Trump I saw in it was the “require a court order to remove/ban a social media account”.

Sadly the only original, unfiltered through other YouTubers vid is posted by RFK. It even has big green crayon all caps, bold letter subtitles.

Look to Elon and Vance. They’re the bigger threats.

Gog.com is always worth a look. I found a functional copy of Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri there.

It’s nice over here, it’s not the same 15 questions across subs every 3 days. It’s not the same recycled stories ad nauseam. And, there’s more Gowron.

In addition to all the GrapheneOS recommendations, there are also faraday bags. Drop the phone in while at home or wherever.

Oh hell no. Not until the first two patches are rolled out.

Final Fantasy. Flowing dramatic artwork. 18 pixels of character (hyperbole, idk the actual pixel number.)

This man likely wants to be president, but cannot, so he’s riding the Trump train instead. As such, I suspect you can find him bending on free speech and leaning into incitement of more Jan 6 treason quite a bit in regards to that personal motive.

Wait. Why does it have ads? Aren’t you paying them for an ad free experience? If not, what’s the point?

GrapheneOS. Faraday bags. Depends on you and how far you want to take it. And how much you like and rely on dynamic maps.

It’s cool when these companies get subpoenaed. Then we all know exactly what data they keep.

Proton had a recent subpeona they had to honor. All the data they had was yes, the dude has an email here. But no content. Granted, if you’re exchanging with a gmail account, it’s moot, for those exchanges anyway.

This is really simple. Use Signal or WIRE. Proton or maybe Tutanota for email.

Avoid garbage like Telegram and FB Messenger. Discord as well.

Steam, Kindle, Audible, what was that movies site?

Both are meh compared to home. Dough is flour water yeast. Touch of corn meal for roll out. Add time. That’s it. Cheap and easy.

Reclaim the Pizza Hut crust of 30 years ago by preheating a #8 or larger iron skillet with oil in it, carefully dropping in your rolled out crust, making sure it has a nice edge, and building your pizza. And your crust won’t taste as sugary as subway bread.

You have money to spare, pizza oven for the thin crust.

Dominos is better these days if you have to choose.
