Absolutely! Toasted, with ketchup!
I started on Beehaw, moved to Lemm.ee, and am now moving to LemmyWorld (all as 108beads). The reason is technical issues with what tools are allowed to me for modding tasks. The communities I mod are on LemmyWorld, so my account needs to be on LemmyWorld.
Absolutely! Toasted, with ketchup!
Sorry, absolutely no clue—like at least 30-40 years ago.
Sleep tight. Don’t let the bedbugs bite. And if they do? Bite them back!
I hear this! Mine now tries to snuggle up by shoving his butt toward my face, and draping his tail across my mouth.
I’ve read about a variation of this and do it faithfully! Except you have to be driving under an overpass with train tracks, and there has to be a (preferably moving) train on the tracks above you. The idea is that when you press your hand to the car’s ceiling, you get to send a wish to hitch a ride on the train going by above you. The moving train takes your wish along with it, giving it quicker travels, more exposure to the world, and thus more opportunities to be fulfilled.
From my grandmother: “Essen! Essen!” (Eat! Eat!) Followed quickly by “You need to lose weight! You’re getting fat!”
Just about 10 years on Reddit. My visits to Reddit dropped by 99.9%; still do a few check-ins with support communities I’ve used. Here on Lemmy, actively contributing and minor role as mod in a couple of communities. Building a new home in the stars.
It’s definitely not “normal,” certainly not healthy. As to what—could be symptoms of many different possible underlying causes.
That we’ve been to the moon and back, and that they can casually toss into their pockets a device with enough “thinking” power to do the necessary math for the task and then some.
And that we still can’t make nylon stockings that don’t “run,” but that nobody cares because we don’t wear them anymore.
That, and transgender is normal.
I believe you’d be welcome at !neurodegdissupport@lemmy.world. I’m a co-mod. We’ve got Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s and MS represented among the active and vocal participants. Yes, I know epilepsy isn’t technically “degenerative,” but it is neurological.
Alzheimer’s, other forms of dementia, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, multiple sclerosis, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s)… and similar concerns. We’re not all affected by every one of these, but we can make common cause and support each other.
Yah, I really don’t want to see Lemmy become infested with p*nis enchancement ads, pseudo-science slime, and watch Russian bots commandeer US & other elections (yet again).
You probably have food banks in your area which would be delighted to get some!
Sigh. On the one hand, I want, need and deserve rigorous honesty from science (and the panoply of public-facing health officials).
On the other hand, I don’t completely trust others to use that info wisely. Like: when Faucci said that N95 masking was unnecessary—and was actually trying to stall so that adequate PPE could be supplied to healthcare workers. If he hadn’t said that, would the general pubic have graciously stepped to the back of the line to wait for their turn to get masks? I doubt it.
But—if PPE works for healthcare workers, why doen’t it work for me? Or, if the highly touted flu vaccine merely dampens effects of the flu, why should I think this new miracle mRNA tech is going to reduce my chances of merely having milder Covid symptoms?
I don’t know, but it seems to me that this muddled messaging and the 20/20 hindsight decoding may actually be contributing to the science-denying BS going around. Don’t patronize me, I guess is what I’m saying.
Oh gawd! We’re calling stuff from 2000s nostalgia!? LOL—Boomer here. Every time I see new decade connected to nostalgia content, I’m reminded of how old I’m getting.
And for heaven’s sake, start an investment retirement account now. Yeah, I know, “but I’m not making enough, but there’s that shiny thing in the (online) store window, but I’m never going to get old.” Just allot one take-out coffee’s worth of spare change per week. You can up the ante later. Let the miracle of compound interest do its thing.
