There isn’t a ton to say, as she likely does not want or is willing to be convinced otherwise. If you know that her view is untrue (which, it is. There are, quite literally, millions upon millions of people who live fulfilling, good lives with depression. There are also people who provide “value” to the community through employment or otherwise who do not necessarily deserve to live.), then you do not have to value it. It’s the same way you wouldn’t value a Flat Earther’s screeching about you being wrong about sphere Earth; they are beyond reason, and are not worth the energy needed to combat their views. It’s tough, because it is your mother, but motherhood does not mean you are wise or well-lived. The barrier for entry to parenthood is extremely low.

That’s insanity lol

Brother it’s so bad. I’ve been trying to help a friend do one recently, or at least plan it, and I’ve watched my previously $85 2x16 sticks of GSkill DDR5 (like the cheapest option I had) shoot up to like $260 in under a month has been insane. It’s not even good ram…

I swype type on my phone, my last sentence should read “ask vet about dosing”

Have you tried Benadryl? Cats and dogs can have it, and assuming it’s some kind of allergy as opposed to a a like…topical thing, it may provide relief she hasn’t had yet. Just ask get about dosing

Thank fucking gawd. I don’t expect anything to change, cause our team is God awful anyway, but dude clearly couldn’t cut it. Reactionary firing of Vrabel, then just throwing GMs and HCs at the wall isn’t gonna fix shit. Find a guy you’re happy with and keep him for a bit. Same with GM. Same with QB. We just carousel betwethe 3 every 3rd year and it’s maddening.

I’ve said this until I was blue in the face. The closure of NIOSH in Morgantown, the place that arguably led the charge for discovering black lung’s cause and combatting it, and continually working on particulate science, was the absolute biggest slap in the face to this state that could have happened. The biggest ally miners had in the the twilights of their careers is gone, and in it’s place, you get a “good job, bro” and kicked out the door by the mine barons. Any shot you have at recompense dies when they declare bankruptcy with yet another shell company; the holding ponds they’re responsible for? Not their problem. The recovery costs of the natural environment? State’s cost now. Yet all those profits go right into ol’ Jimothy Justice’s pockets. Probably amped as fuck that he gets to continue his racket, and ALSO vote on the policies that regulate the industry. How fun that is!

Fucks sake.

It’s been bleak since about 2008, Obama just was popular enough to stave this wave off. Heavy swing back the other way, with the temporary gap for Biden off of short term anger and easier voting with COVID.

It wasn’t. 3+ turnovers and the closest we were to winning was 7-0. And that was prior to the 3 turnovers

[WVU-Ohio U]

Rich Rod was a bad hire. I hated it the second he was rumored. Ken Kendricks can stay in fucking Arizona, pushing for this. Pat McAfee can suck a dick pushing for this. Every person amped for RichRod2.0 can suck a dick. He failed after half a decade with his own guys, and he’s going to succeed in the NIL era in a B12 that doesn’t match the SEC and B10? We’re in a 2nd rate conference we aren’t getting a championship. We had a political tour all off season about how Rich Rod could take us back to the pinnacle of WVU. AND WE’RE GETTING FLOUNCED BY OHIO U. 3 TURNOVERS TO ZERO. We got spotted possessions and couldn’t do it.

I’m eagerly awaiting the excuses by the staff. It’s bad. We’re bad. RichRod is bad. And we will be bad until he’s gone.

Quid pro crowd killing in the pit

Dibs on Ruinious Litigation for a band name

I’m not a details man, I’m a big picture guy. Bill it as “realistic response technology”?

Someone needs to make an app where it’s people AI dating, but instead it just matches you with an IRL person. Like ethically it’s not cool, but…

Yep. Guy did an awesome job on Reddit app, it feels the same here. I think on other updates, because Lemmy gets changed pretty often, he focuses on major updates and such moreso than every single change, which is understandable.

That’s about what I do. Jump on for a few rounds every few weeks just to do it, but the gameplay loop doesn’t keep me long term. I just don’t care to level/unlock stuff like that anymore really, not without a greater purpose. But it’s fun when I play, and I’ll absolutely help some Xbox homies kill some bots.

This is big. I think they teased this with the destruction and current remaking of the Helldivers Training Facility. It’ll come on line when Xbox is released (don’t quote me, I haven’t checked timeliness at all. Just my thoughts from way outside!)

My recommended is decent but every now and then it’ll try to throw some weird shit in there. Loves recommending me off-shoot Fox channels because I have the main one blocked. Seems like every few months it pops up. But yeah, I get a lot of MTB, Motocross, and OSRS stuff cause it’s what I tend to watch. Some random car YouTubers (Rob Dahm ILY) and random video essays about interesting stuff.

It’s not even a nostalgia thing; it’s a “me and my friends are hungry and the option is 4 pizzas from Little Caesars or 1 pizza from local place”. No one is trying to impress anyone, we’re all friends, we want to hang out for as long as possible. No one is bringing gourmet pizza to the creek to hang out, no one is bringing heirloom tomatoes and organic arugula and garlic infused olive oil pizza to a college football tailgate for $35/pizza. We’re getting shitty pizza from Domino’s, shitty lite beers, and we’re gonna freeze half to death playing cornhole in a parking lot and have a good time doing it lol

Brother I’m not saying I enjoy Papa John’s more. I’m saying I’m not bringing finely aged wine to drink in the garage while I listen to Creed. This is the guy that brings 4 of the most disgustingly conceived IPAs to a party, drinks one of them, and then wants Coors Lite from the cooler on someone else’s dime. Dude bringing a 4" personal pan pizza from Napolitano Italiano and wants to split it across 5 friends, only $15/ea for the pizza, and you get 2 bites of it. Dude wants the most memorable part of the night to be a slice of pizza and not hanging out with his friends.

This gotta be the dumbest bait ever. “You don’t eat expensive enough pizza”, what am I even doing with my time anymore lol. Waited a month to respond and comes back just to annoy me lmao. Lemme know what stupid little JRPG you’re playing so you can tell me why I’m enjoying bad video games too.
