I was just thinking about this yesterday. These days, Lemmy is just making me depressed. I like to read comments to get further insight to articles, maybe someone trying to point out the author’s bias, or a joke. But Lemmy comments are all some variation of “the world is doomed”, “kill this person”, or “capitalism is the root of all woe”. They are neither useful, insightful, or improve my day in any way. Lemmy is making my life less enjoyable. It was already an overall negative and cynical space during the Biden administration; now it is unbearable.

I’ve been on Lemmy for a long time now, since Reddit killed 3rd party clients with their API change, but now I think I might go back to Reddit. The company itself has a lot of problems, but at least I can get a lot of non-doom content to fill my day.

Like Michael Jordan? Very weird

A pretty normal one?

No, the person you’re replying to likely lives in an area with annual assessment limits. This means when they move into their house, they pay taxes on the assessed amount at that time. Every year, even if the assessment shows a 50% increase in value, your tax increase will be capped at something like a 2% increase. Over the course of 30 years this adds up to huge tax savings the longer you stay in one place. The downsides are that it causes more traffic, causes homes to sell less often, and provides less local tax to fund public programs like schools.

No such thing, so everyone can disregard this message and still comply with it

Idk, I don’t have spectrum

R: curl the sides of the tongue up to your upper molars

L: curl the front of your tongue up to the roof of your mouth

Spectrum is an ISP that has recently started mobile service. My guess is if you buy a phone through them they install this spyware app that you can’t remove.

Because that’s what the news and social media is talking about right now. The zeigeist is currently cynical

Yeah for real, who assumes the cover page is all there is to a newspaper? It has the logo on it

Master, what about zoinks?

That guy’s nose?

Bussin-pilled

I sure hope we get some crazy satirical video game from this time in history

Yeah about that last point, it is easy to have sex with someone just because they also want it. However, you may regret it afterwards because maybe they want an actual relationship and you just wanted the sex because your hormones were making that decision for you. Or if you do it with a close friend, it can strain that relationship.

It’s always best to decide what you plan to do before going into any situation that could potentially turn sexual. And stick to the plan. If something unexpected comes up, try to find a way to step away for a few minutes, let the hormones cool, and try to decide what you really want. It’s the only way to be sure you’re making a decision based on more than the instinct to have sex with everything.

And yet more human than anyone

He’s a phony! A big, fat phony!

If my math is right then he would have had to have $117k in bitcoin at that time to have $780m now. That is a lot of money to lose even back then.

And your greasy greasy granny
