That's an interesting one. Looks like it pulls from a few less common (well, to me) sources. Has old school internet vibes

Never heard of it! I'll check it out

I appreciate this. Why do we have to align only with one approach/perspective? Being versatile is more alluring

I'm gonna start referring to them as that, moving forward

Hey man, don't harsh my brain's knee jerk attempts at coping

Dammit. It's not an Onion post

Useful clarification, thank you. I'm not sure where my vision is at. I definitely do the thing of taking my glasses off and back on depending on what I am doing. But even with them off I'm starting to find some print hard to read — mainly the small print on products. I'll have to see. I'm overdue for a new prescription. Also getting intermittent splotches of white in my periphery so that's a new fun thing to worry about.

Reminders of aging bodies + of capitalism's negative impact on us: this post has not cheered me up today lol

I appreciate the clarifications, thanks! Yeah, I agree on that slow creep of vision loss. I've been nearsighted a long time and am now losing my reading distance vision. But I can still read without glasses, and so I do. But it's probably not as sharp, and I suspect that might lead me to read less than I otherwise would

I don't understand this statement, tbh. Or the odd antagonism of it. Are you saying all people above the age of 42 need to be wearing progressive glasses?

Apologies, I thought adjustment just related to the frames. Would they be swapping lenses, in this case?

Sounds costly. And, at what point do you know they are properly aligned or not?
