Is there a buy it for life community here on Lemmy/Kbin yet? If there’s something like that, maybe asking questions here would generate some okay responses. It won’t be as immediate, but it would also help grow the amount of useful info we have in the fediverse.

I found this website really helpful. It rounds up subreddits that existed on Reddit and the places they’ve moved to in the Fediverse.

Keen take, I totally agree.

He hasn’t been having much success expanding his base, and this article points out that it’s because he’s playing up key conservative issues to capture one audience, while also aiming for moderates. There’s just a contradiction there.

Omg! Can you drop a link to where I can get this awesome screen stand??

Idk there were generations who went through two world wars…

Socially, to echo another commenter, I remain in a fundamental way the same shy person that I’ve always been. One friend once described me as looking like a young boy in a built man’s body, which, especially when I’m anxious, is probably accurate.

At the same time, dating has transformed completely. I totally pull at bars/concerts and on apps in a way I didn’t when I was less fit. The nice thing about being shy and fit is that I can lean into the shyness coming off as being demure/adorable and people are generally down with that.

More than anything though, I’m healthy, and that feels really good. I enjoy leaving my house. I want to be in situations where my heart rate elevates and I engage my senses and work my body. In this sense, I feel like I put myself out into the world a lot more than I did when I was less fit.

Is this painted, or rendered?

So screwed up that they decided Affirmative Action on Equal Protection grounds and then pivoted to First Amendment rights to justify this decision.

It’s a constitutional failure in the US that rights can be undermined by the court in this way without any checks.

So true!!!

Agreed. Also funny because this whole thing started because of well-designed native apps in the first place…

Been playing around with Limbo as well. Limbo is a bit ahead of Memmy in terms of allowing management of multiple accounts, but Memmy seems more lightweight on my iOS device.

Sorry, I’m still learning how to be an effective member of our community… you’re right; it’s good that this hilarious green text is shared via multiple channels :)

I think the difference is that 1:1 I’m pretty okay — it’s just when I’m trying to engage with a group that I start to feel uncomfortable.

Also a gay dude if that changes the equation? Especially at concerts, sometimes all it takes to start something is the right kind of eye contact.

Seems like an old soul in that tiny cute body

Gotcha. It does feel hopeless. But we are doing what we can… preserving our public forum via the fediverse being one step.

This is so cool. I can’t imagine the mental calculation that goes into designing it.

This is really amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Whiskers on fleek

Bright line is also expensive ($80ish for Miami to Orlando) and has caused a number of accidents so far…
