Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

One, No One and One Hundred Thousand
I kind of expected a Pirandello reference here.
Thank you for giving me a new book to read. This sounds incredibly interesting.
Oh most of his work seems to be in public domain.
I can see many old translations to many languages, however the only place I can find them is Anna's archive. For example they have editions made by epublibre, but epublibre itself is down.
Alright I started reading it this morning. Very entertaining.
Super thx, I'm always interested in authors from Latin countries since they're closer to my culture.
This is also the exact (really, exact) same thing that Neon Genesis Evangelion touches on in the last couple episodes of the original series.
Huh. To me that seems like it's either trivially true or it's nonsense, depending on definitions.
Of course nobody knows anybody 100% - especially not oneself. So each person gets a different view, with slightly different facts and assumptions about each other.
But on the other hand, strong or important personality traits tend to be noticeable after spending just a few minutes with a person.
While it's easy to assume that you can figure someone major personality traits out after a few minutes, that's actually called a thin slice judgement which can drastically misrepresent people, especially neurodivergent people.
Interesting. That I think that puts it more on the 'trivially true' side (that everyone has a different view of everyone else, not necessarily an accurate one).
Yeah sorry about replying so flippantly, I edited it to be nicer, and you were right in your comment
