I once received a spam call from my own number. They spoofed my own phone number to call me.

Do You Only Use Lemmy Or Do You Use Another Fediverse Thing And Why Did You Become A Fediverse/Lemmy Use?
I started exploring Lemmy/Kbin during Reddit's API drama. I use Lemmy daily, mostly just lurking, but occasional participation. I probably participate here more than I did on Reddit. I post to & scroll through Pixelfed occasionally, definitely more than I ever used Instagram. My Mastodon account is essentially abandoned. I never had a Twitter account, so not exactly surprising. Oh, I also briefly tried Loops, never used TikTok. I'm not big on videos, so I haven't tried Peertube.
I'm tired of billionaires and big tech and want to support alternatives.

Yup. I often show up to appointments awkwardly early because I'm just sitting, staring at my phone, waiting to leave, then realize I could do the exact same thing at my destination, minus the anxiety of watching the clock, so I leave.

Am I the only one bothered by this?
There's a shop near me that has one of those sandwich board signs on the sidewalk with some sort of "fuck the billionaires, support small businesses" messaging, but for some idiotic reason, it has the faces of those billionaires on it, so every time I see it, I just get angry.

What guarantee do you have that those rules won't be revised? Or that someone won't hack & leak it?

This is Nicholas. He is an asshole. I love him.
This is my foster kitten. She's struggling to keep her rectum inside her asshole. I love her.

What is your usual request when you're getting a haircut?
I do it myself. Probably had someone else do it half a dozen times over the past 20 years, and a few of those were just letting my hairdresser friend have fun with my hair.

I accidentally ate a red smartie first, what is the emergency protocol?

Since they identified the color as "red", not "pink", I assume they're talking about the chocolate candies.
Edit: also coming from a .ca instance.

Cool Bug Fact #47
I'm not afraid, in fact, I desire it. But there's a couple people who'd be pretty upset if I left, and I don't want to hurt them, so I'm stuck here.

too real
I'm a loser and made my own. I ran out of q-tips, so it's not perfect, but damn close.

Rule still has moments where it can be funny

It's an epilator. Basically, a bunch of tweezers on a spinning thing to yoink out your hair.

OMG, yes! I swear there's someone outside my building using one 8 or 9 days per week.

Assuming it's real, I think it would have to be as chimera. I don't even think an extra chromosome would explain this. I'm oversimplifying a little, but the genetics when it comes to the black/brown coloration is either "tabby" or "not tabby", and "tabby" is dominant, so as long as it received one copy of "tabby", every part of the coat that isn't white should be tabby.

I just like the bisexual flag colors better.

Cervical cancer deaths fall to zero in young women given vaccine
To anyone born too early to get the vaccine in the past, talk to your doctor! I was diagnosed with cervical cancer last year, and my doctor says the cutoffs have changed, so even with my diagnosis, it's still worth getting.

We can't fix any problem without taxing rich
I don't think this is an unpopular opinion, especially on Lemmy.

#DIV/0! I was laid off and haven't been able to find another job yet, so salary is zero, but basic needs still exist and cost money.

We live in a public transit hell
As an American living in a region with halfway decent (by American standards) public transit, I feel like I hear more comments aligned with the European side than the American side. If public transit has literally any downsides, that's justification enough to drive for so many people.
