I think I needed to hear this. Thanks.

I hate to say it... but DIY. There are resources for help. I am hesitant to post direct links, but know help is there!

I know this is from a different account, but fml. I'm sure you are aware of how depressing things are as a fellow anarchist. I have to go vote, because I try to give a shit.

Here in GA, we've gotten close. I had to quit the job I temporarily stopped working for myself for last year because of heat exhaustion. It's bad. I fainted in 110° F temps with 89% humidity. Trump will make thus worse.

I have to reply here because SDF was down for a while and federation is still catching up. I want yout to know, though, you've kept me laughing and that has helped me a lot, so thanks for that.

Seriously? Fuck you. This supports the genocide of every LGBTQ+ person in all of North America, be it directly or indirectly. No one wants what is happening in Gaza. But, I have to say the potential genocide (in the complete erasure of culture as well as open murders with little to no consequences sense) here is even higher.

I have the unfortunate circumstance of being a trans woman in GA. I already have had to completely shut off most contact with people, both work and personal.

I've already had rocks thrown at me in an attempt to kill me (this was years ago, even). I already feel like I have to carry a gun. If things go the way they seem, I will even have to order in groceries because it will further empower the people that hate my existence.

The foreign policy is shit, no question. However, I don't like the possibility of being raped and murdered by some asshole that thinks he understands Co² emissions after watching some video.

I have a lot to say here, especially as a very blue collar machinist. I will refrain, though.

In conclusion: by "avoiding" the genocide in Gaza (which may have been resolved), you have also doomed people like me to maybe live in fear for the rest of our lives.

I'm not just worried, I am frightened and have nowhere to turn.

I have to say that the wording here feels oddly suspect. I have never gotten a sticker that said anything other than "I voted!" and it really concerns me about the subtle messaging here. I tried to make a separate post about it, but image posts aren't allowed apparently.

My state has that as well, but you are still required to carry a physical license if you are driving, same with car insurance info on paper. It doesn't solve much of a problem since that is the case.

They were trying to run it cracked through an alternative launcher.

I haven't had a frenulum since infancy (believe it or not, from a near fatal teething incident) and have always been able to do this. I used to frak people out by making my tongue disappear while I was a kid.

These videos are getting huge in size because I try for the best quality I can. Going forward, I'm not sure that any solution other than YouTube is going to work. If someone has a good and cheap answer - let me know.

 
 

I really like to post OC edits, but there seems to be absolutely no great solution. I don’t have the storage space or good internet to self-host PeerTube, catbox.moe seems to be hit or miss, uploading huge video files to an instance is just rude, and YouTube tries to deny the privacy of the viewer and uploader at every turn. I’m willing to pay for a solution that will work across all apps and platforms. Oh, and imgur has a length limit (that’s weird)

This has been a nightmare. Things that work for most don't work for some, and things that work for some almost work for others. Can't self host PeerTube because I don't have the space. If anyone has an answer that isn't YouTube PLEASE let me know. I'm willing to pay what I can. Also, if you're curious or annoyed - I need that 5 second buffer for YouTube to not scream copyrights at me. I hate that :(

This took about a week to make. I hope you enjoy it! Also, this is a webm - if you can't see this, consider a different app/client. This would have been a 2gb gif. Special thanks to @ummthatguy@lemmy.world and @negativenull@lemm.ee for the encouraging comments in the past!

I know the apostrophe is divisive, but I'm in a bad spot, ok?

 

If this isn't Trek related enough, let me know (I know it's kinda playing loose)

He doesn't do much but snore these days. Hard to get him running every day!

 

The things you can do with knowledge and a decent home shop are amazing.

 

This is a repost of an edit of mine. I'm fully aware that it should have just been "maximum warp" but I just goofed while making this.

 

If you do, it will reset memes on Lemmy back six months at least.
