Doesn't hurt to have redundant maps in case one gets taken down.

I've often considered putting a giant mirror in my back window to reflect their high beams back into their eyes

Was worried about a friend I hadn't hears from in a while, turns out she's just been putting 40 hours a week into Project Zomboid for the last 3 months

I sometimes do that with rimworld so it's understandable

I've been slowly phasing out my YouTube consumption in favor of Nebula, Dropout, and sailing the seven seas

That first one hits way too close to home

I've had success with medication but it took a long time to figure out a dosage that worked for me. Also helps to find a good therapist if you have access to insurance.

Oh so that's the thing

I think this is the first time I've seen an iceberg meme with sources and explanations for each item. Fantastic. Your work is appreciated.

This is the most accurate depiction yet

But "unpaid open source developers should be in, like, 3 more places

I have no sympathy for those who attack and deface our libraries, whether they be physical or digital

Translated this from LinkedIn Speak to English:

I guilt-tripped my dad into buying a $1,000 knife set from my high school pyramid scheme back in 2005.

He let them rot in a drawer for two decades because he obviously didn't want them. Now I've inherited them in Florida, which is the only way I was ever going to get any value out of that scam.

I was 17 and predatory enough to close a pity sale on my own father for Vector Marketing. To everyone who correctly points out that Cutco is a joke: the knives actually haven't fallen apart yet, which is more than I can say for my dignity at the time.

Your first shitty sales job was probably a humiliating waste of time, but if you wait twenty years, you can try to spin it into a deep life lesson for engagement.

ChatGPT didn't fry your drive. You fried your drive.

You should be looking up these commands and flags before you run them.

You wouldn't be an asshole for asking, but you would be an asshole if you kept insisting after they said no.

Communication is great, coercion is not.

Also sounds like therapy would be a good idea, but that can be said of anyone.

That wouldn't even fucking work, lol. You need, at minimum, a proof of address, and even if you spoofed 10 different names and addresses that each corresponded to 10 specific precincts, you're going to be given a provisional ballot, in which case your vote doesn't even get counted until it has been independently researched and verified by county workers, which if it succeeds, won't get counted till a week later.

God. I fucking hate that these idiots have a non-zero chance of winning.

Steam UI genuinely fucks, and if you're suggesting it should be homogenized into the bland, emotionless material design full of dark patterns that every other web experience has turned into... then you, sir, can go to hell

Implying you can control or induce these hyperfixations in a productive way is disingenuous at best, measurably harmful at worst.

If you work in a job that can use use the chaos in a productive way that's great, but I'm willing to bet you still face abnormally high difficulty with general life tasks, and consistently struggle to enforce a work/life balance.

You're not helping people with ADHD by posting this. You're establishing an unattainable standard for people that are already doing everything in their power just to get by.

This. I'd rather die alone than risk even the slightest possibility of making someone else uncomfortable.

why yes I am in therapy how did you know

Until I joined Lemmy I had no idea how militant vegans could be. I sorta just assumed they were a different brand of vegetarian.

I'm not opposed to their ideaology in any way, but after reading the comments on a few posts that found their way into my feed... I had to block their communities. It didn't seem likely that I'd be reading any productive discourse there.

We got a "bill" from a company like this that wanted ~300 bucks to "list your companies name on our website". That was it. You paid them, and you got added to the list of accountants that didn't read the fine print. Pretty clever, if obnoxious.
