I went and added one for you. Just to be fair. Thank you for your service.
Are the rocks eyebrows always so flawless or am I just noticing because I got my own eyebrows done today and I’m wishing they turned out half as good.
I really dig this artists work, he has lots like this: https://www.robgonsalves.live/

Put it in the headlines
… on Friday, which saw the jury hold the UFC superstar liable for sexual assault in 2018
I fucking love mushrooms. What neat, interesting, vast, wonderful, mysterious systems we have growing in our forests.
Interestingly, the study also revealed a particularly strong consensus among participants regarding the neural representations of Justin Bieber compared to the other four celebrities.
I wonder why!
I enjoyed that. It feels like that’s what the internets for.
Question, maybe off topic. But Mary’s clutching a cross here. Was a cross already a symbol by the time Jesus died on one? It’s a tool of torture and death. If someone I loved died by stabbing, I wouldn’t lie around like that with a knife.
The part that makes it feel like vote buying is the income limit they set. A person making $140k getting $250 doesn’t change their life or relationship with groceries and rising costs. Why not make the cap lower and give the lower income individuals more to make an actual difference in their lives? Because then it’s not vote buying.
Maybe some of the symptoms of the traumas that you exhibited during the interview.
Anyone curious about heights
Rumeysa Gelgi, who stands 215.16 centimeters (7 feet 0.7 inches) tall, and Jyoti Amge, who measures just 62.8 centimeters (2 feet 0.7 inches), …
Do you know what? I did keep up my resolution this year. But it may have just been flakey timing for positive life changes. My little one was more image 3 supplements, got them by my desk and work and stayed on top of it. And the second was more movement. Which started as gym, then was long walks, then yoga, back to gym. It’s been good. I don’t think I have a ton for 2025. I hope I just keep it up.
I. Am. Tired.
He says something, it’s not true, there’s evidence he said the opposite, has acted in the opposite. He gets millions of votes. This time millions more.
Does this matter to them? I’d argue, clearly not.
So, now what my friends. Now what?
“Arguments that sex work is inherently exploitative not only go against evidence, they reinforce assumptions and stereotypes that construct racialized sex workers as snapshots; people without a voice, without dimension and in need of saving,” said Kelly Go, program manager at SWAN. “These stereotypes increase physical violence against sex workers and render them disposable and deportable by the state in the first place. It’s important to understand migrant sex work in the context of labour rights and international labour migration.”
Ohh I thought the illusion was maybe that it moved or something but no, turns out it’s not a spiral at all? Just circles. Trippy.
It is a unique illusion, where the observer can verify the concentric strands manually.[3] When the strands are highlighted in a different colour, it becomes obvious to the observer that no spiral is present.[4]
Is it worth getting into video games?
I’m a 30 year old woman who’s only really played card and puzzle games on my phone. Im considering new hobbies. Is it worth trying to get into video games for the first time. Where would I even start.
How are people dealing with senior pets when they live alone?
I have a wonderful senior dog and he’s my best friend. And I’m so scared of his aging. As he’s slowing down and I keep an eye out for medical issues I just can’t imagine how and when to make a call about his life.
I work all day away from home and live by myself, which was not the situation when I’d adopted him initially. I don’t have a community or friends or family around to help during the day if and when it comes to that. I can’t afford dog sitters especially not ones with training.
What if he could be fine with more support and money, should I give him back to animal rescue?
Are there any Canadian news and current events comedy options?
I watch a lot of late night shows and British current events shows (have I got news for you, the bugle podcast). Really wish there was something equivalent for Canada. I know there was “this hour has 22 minutes” and Rick Mercer but I don’t think they’re around any more.
Any other Canadian comedic current events options?
I doubt future generations will have “basement dwellers” because none of us can afford to own basements.
“Basement dwellers” implies parents with multi level houses. I feel like the kid living with their parents for a long time will become more of a thing but they’ll be lucky to have the privacy and space of a whole basement.
And so I say, basement dwellers? In this economy?
In depth debate about Gnosticism
I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.
I enjoyed the exchange of ideas here and the way things were described and debated. Made me happy to be on Lemmy.
What the process for people getting their driving licenses where you live?
Saw this comment from someone in Germany, 3000-4000 euros and very intensive process. https://feddit.de/comment/7204601
YSK about the different “ways of knowing”
On these types of forums it’s easy to jump into an argument about the technicalities or a post or comment.
You should know, though, that there is a theory called Ways of Knowing which defines Separate Knowing and Connected Knowing. It’s been a part of my masters program I’m taking.
Separate knowing disconnects the humanity and context from what’s being said and tries to only argue the “facts”. But facts, and the things people say, don’t just occur in a vacuum. It often is the case when people are arguing past each other, like on the internet.
Connected Knowing is approaching the thing someone said with the understanding that there is a context, humanity, biases, different experiences, and human error that can all jumble up when people are sharing information.
Maybe even just knowing that there’s different ways to know would be helpful for us to engage in a different level of conversation here. I’m not sure. I just wanted to share!

Christofascist should be an oxymoron.
I swear I’d not seen the term “christofascism” until this year. It’s an apt term for all the talk about the new speaker of the house, rolling back of Roe v Wade, banning books and increased persecution of LGBT+ rights…
But if I was Christ I’d be pretty darn upset right now. I talk about love and tolerance and peace and you’re going to use my name to make shitty, power grabbing, political, oppressive moves? The fuckin audacity. I’d be flipping tables and calling out the hypocrites.
I know it’s a conversation as old as time. I also don’t believe Christian’s should be able to point at it and say “yeh but that’s not MY Jesus.” Doesn’t fucking matter, they’re identifying as a You so if You don’t do something about it then it’s as good as doin it yourself.
Sigh.
How do you like to sort your Lemmy feed?
Hot seems meh. I usually go for Top: Day but then I run out. Recently tried most active by comments and liked it.
How y’all sorting your feeds?
How do poor people in the states give birth without money?
I’m Canadian. And I’m already sorry for asking an ignorant question.
I know you have to pay for hospital visits in the states. I know lower economic status can come with lower access to birth control and sex education. But then, how do they afford to give birth? Do people ever avoid hospital visits because they don’t feel like they can’t afford it?
Do hospitals put people on a payment plan? Is it possible to give birth and not pay if you don’t have the means? How does it work in the states?
How does it all work?
Again. Canadian. And sorry.
My work intranet said the IT manager’s office is in room 404. I went to find him but it’s some other random persons office.
I thought it was an intentional joke but he didn’t seem to think it was funny, even when I explained the “404: Office Not Found”.
I still think it’s objectively funny.
What do you like about the vehicle you drive and would you have changed anythin about it?
Realized that with my new job I’m at $500/month for gas. Starting to seriously consider a hybrid or electric but damn they expensive. Either way might just need something more reliable than my 320k+ car.
Whatchya driving, do you like it, and why?
What happened to online computer games?
In like, 2005-2010ish I remember there being these awesome online games through sites like Mini Clip. All disappeared from the internet.
I understood it had something to do with Java? Or… some plug in? I don’t really understand what either of those mean.
