I've been pleasantly surprised by the number of people who are continuing to stick with it + be supportive. I didn't expect anything beyond the planned end of the blackout, although I didn't expect thousands of subreddits to participate in that either. Either way I've basically cut Reddit out entirely. I used to scroll 2-3hrs a day and I'm down to maybe 10 minutes once or twice a week when I'm trying to find an answer to something. Attempting to fill my newfound free time has been.. fun

I feel like they left out the key point that his submersible went to the deepest known point on the entire planet (~36,000ft, almost 3x the depth of the titanic). it was only the fourth dive ever made to the challenger deep. and he didn't get turned into human salsa

I don't care for debate so I'm just gonna share this tofu stir-fry recipe I like. I sub gochujang for the sambal oelek and skip the peanut garnish

Are you sure this isn't just a CVS thing? It says the same thing for me and I know my insurance covers UTIs for everyone. Maybe try an urgent care?

shhh let me pretend my attempt at self-improvement has been successful

the fun part is that it just turns into a lemmy addiction :)

I feel like there are kinder ways to express your opinion than to say "ew" about something someone made for themselves...

Made an account last night. I feel like a tech-averse senior trying to understand how the fediverse works but I'll get there lol

i don't know anything about linux tbh but i want yall to know i get the same weird enjoyment out of these that i did with trebuchetmemes and prequelmemes. like even if i don't know what yall are talking about sometimes, i still feel your vibe

the cognitive dissonance of

: I wholeheartedly support unions, strikes, and workers' rights

: Where the fuck is my package

i have no idea what y'all are referencing and it's making this 10x creepier

edit: a dude from fullmetal alchemist turned his daughter into a chimera, which the op bears a remarkable resemblance to

the amount of land for cows is crazy. and the fact that more land goes to livestock feed than food we eat is interesting as well

Perhaps that's why they said

Zoomers overall

Also not sure what's so inconsiderate about their comment. I feel like it's pretty widely accepted that zoomers generally don't have the same tech problem-solving skills that many gen x/y people do. No one's claiming they're dumb. It's a byproduct of growing up with tech that has been designed for simplicity and ease of use.

Congrats! Remember to be kind to yourself if you have some trouble adjusting to the new routine since it's been a while <3

I hate how awful yet ubiquitous it is. Depending on your demographic, not having it can mean you miss out on a lot of pop culture and sort of get left behind.

I'm probably in the like 2nd most targeted demographic, so all my friends are on TT and all the trending things related to our hobbies are on there. I constantly feel left out because I'm missing 99% of the content. And it's hard because I want to have dumb conversations about pop culture and hobbies with my friends, but I refuse to download it. It makes me so sad. It's very isolating

My skin's about that light. You would not believe the number of people who think it's fine to comment on the color of your skin and tell you how weird it is. And foundation is such a pain in the ass. You're lighter than KVD 40N or don't want to spend $40/oz? Fuck you, mix a match yourself.

It is absolutely a thing. Forgetfulness, absent-mindedness, short attention span, etc. are common symptoms of ADHD. The meds generally wear off at the end of the day, so by the time the next day rolls around, you're back at baseline, which includes the forgetfulness.

ADHD can be incredibly debilitating and I think it's something that most people don't really grasp despite how well-known the disorder is.

a few people have mentioned it's because of anatomy and how it makes male UTIs more complicated + require more complex care. it's not a case of insurance not covering it, op just needs to go somewhere else

For some reason I thought it was $3/mo and I finally went to bite the bullet because I felt like the benefits outweighed the cost at that price point.. then I saw it was actually $12/mo!? I get that it includes music, offline, etc., but all I want it for is the ads :/

You can try Liftoff! as well [email protected]. I've been enjoying it :)
