Oh fuck yeah let me get my popcorn. Peice of shit deserves all that.

I'm sure the new government will enforce that.

I used to do this as well... I think I went for 6 months once... not great. I wear glasses now and have chronic dry eye. I got lucky.

I took my kids trick or treating tonight and, in the neighborhood we go to, everyone who is handing out candy sits on their porch or driveway and it's like a big block party. Nobody goes up to the houses with nobody outside because it's assumed they aren't participating. Being in rural texas, I probably wouldn't let my kids knock on those doors, only if that's what was the norm for the neighborhood. People be crazy out here.

A left handed can opener was such a game changer. I literally cross my hands one over the other to use a right handed can opener.

I went to pick a prescription at my local Walmart today (texas) and they had a sign saying that they have narcan or noloxone available. My guess is the easy access to narcan and the awareness of it nowadays.

This seems right up my alley, I'll have to add it to my tbr.

I must have missed something. Why were there north Korean officers there?

I have this, and my husband doesn't. We have two kids, one has it and the other doesn't.

They made us take the ASFAB (sp?) I Christmas treed it and left. No consequences, no harassment from the military.

I live in a VERY rural area. If I want to visit my neighbors, it's at the very least a 10 minute walk. To buy groceries it's about a 20 mi drive. If I want to go to a movie theater, it's a 40 mile drive. It's about a 70 mile drive to the closest city (sky scrapers and stuff)

There's no public transportation or even sidewalks. The closest town that is 5 miles away has one stoplight and a population of 700 ish. We do have a few restaurants in town though, a school and a post office.

This describes my brother in law. Granted, he's better than he used to be about 10 years ago, but he grew up in a small town, got to know all the cops pretty quickly, did a little jail time here and there but still has his license. He's totalled many vehicles, spent some time in ICU and still drives like a bat out of hell.

He sounds more and more like mayor humdinger every day.

HYPNOTOAD

I think I'd be considered a "normie" maybe. I'm not super tech savvy (maybe a bit more than the average person though as I'm a bit of a photoshop wizard and am interested in tech subjects).

What brought me to lemmy was my moral compass. I've used reddit since the late 00's so it was hard to let go but reddit just isn't what it used to be. I could no longer use Joey, my reddit app of choice so I abandoned it because what they did to Joey and other apps was bullshit.

I still find myself on reddit every now and then when I need information on something specific though. I haven't found communities on the fediverse that I connect with that are super active (things like houseplants, knitting, chronic pain, my specific city I live in, etc).

I use lemmy now for mindlessly scrolling before bed and news as I only use Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok for work so it's not leisurely for me to get on normie social media. I do find some interesting articles and funny memes and that's enough for now.

So maybe the key to get a more robust community is through pulling heart strings? Idk my husband still used reddit daily and I guess doesn't give a shit about the lax morals of the company 🤷🏼‍♀️

This reminds me of the opening scene of Interstella 5555 by Daft Punk

It was probably something by The Used or MCR. What a time to be alive in 2008.

Wow. This is something I knew to be true, just never thought too deep about it. This is how you make people care about privacy, get their money involved. It definitely made me sit up straighter.

Millennial, born in '91

I'm a wedding photographer. My dad was a wedding dj and I grew up around the wedding industry. I went to school for art and photography was my focus. Wedding photographer just made sense. I love what I do and I can't imagine anything else.
