@konrad @StephanMatthiesen es gibt auch leckere sehr gute Fruchtsäfte in gut aussehenden Flaschen. Bekam ich während der Schwangerschaft ein paarmal, war gar nicht schlecht.

@ringo32 @manlycoffee as a parent: you don't teach children that those other things are important by forbidding social media.
Banning social media for kids makes it unnecessarily attractive, and keeps me from training proper rules around social media. Both are a net negative.

@knowprose @autistics thanks! I'm usually not an early bird, and rarely get tired before 23h. If I didn't have to bring a kid to school and get to work, my preferred rhythm would be to sleep from 23h-8h. So waking up at 3-4 in the morning is highly disruptive for me.
But maybe... there's something about what you say, that is relevant to me, too ,and as I get older I should look into a rhythm change. Going to sleep before 22h has always been hard for me, so I rarely try.

@autistics This happens after "bad" stressful days, but also if the day was just full.
For example, I'm currently on holiday at home, quite relaxed in general, but had the relatives over for easter dinner. Of course there was a rush in the morning with last-minute cleaning and preparation, followed by a lot of socializing. I was pretty spent in the evening, and went to sleep easily, but I am wide awake since 4:30 am (it's now past 5).
The usual sleep hygiene things are fine or okay: I love my bed, it's dark, cool and quiet, I have a sleep mask: this is usually a place where I sleep well. Just not through the whole night, on too many nights.

Hey @autistics ! I have a problem, and wonder if any of you might have similar problems, but maybe, hopefully, also a solution to go with it?
After intense days, my body decides that what I need now is not a full night of sleep, but intensely processing my stress at 4am. It takes the form of my mind being wide awake, looking for problems to solve. Could be real to-dos, but if I get those out of my mind, it'll reliably find other things to ruminate about.
Has anybody found a way to avoid that and tell their bodies to go to sleep? It compounds and leads to a constantly deteriorating state after a few nights like that.
I've learnt about body scans, muscle relaxation and breath work in therapy, but those don't help much: my body is decently relaxed, but my mind is wide awake and racing.

@hosford42 @openrisk @noondlyt I have an autism-radar, which signals to me when a fellow neurodivergent person is around, so... a bit maybe.

There's some interesting ideas in there.

@openrisk @noondlyt I can say that, for me, the fediverse works better. But I very much assume that's because there's a pre-selection of people, as in: the people who choose to use the fediverse are already a niche.
Following topics is a really nice feature that allows me to meet interesting people with similar interests.
Sometimes I also wish some conversations had rooms for themselves that I could actively leave, auch as current politics. Like muting a hashtag, but that's still imperfect.

@openrisk @noondlyt the "firehose" is actually more like an oversized kitchen party, where there's lots of chance meetings, and many conversations going on. Wouldn't like it every day, but it's good for meeting interesting people. Then you take a few people and move them to your mutuals and follow them more closely, some more than others.
There's quite a bit of chance in how I met friends over my life.
What features or restrictions would make for a more social network, you think?

@h3mmy regarding data science, maybe a book or course regarding data visualization? Edward Tufte is a great author in that field.
