I still haven't played so many games because of opening cinematics and overly long and boring tutorials for this reason. It sucks because I can get super into a game if I just get over that. Like Baldur's Gate 3 was a chore to get into, but I knew I would absolutely love it and now I think it's probably the best game ever.

I think the article means that a pedestrian is trying to cross in front of the turning car where the pedestrian does have right of way, so perpendicular to the turning car and parallel with the traffic which has the green light and walk signal.

As someone with long covid, it is fucking hell. The extreme fatigue, muscle soreness, lengthened healing times of wounds or new sicknesses or physical exertion have made life hardly bearable. I just straight up don't have the energy or mental capacity to do anything I used to love and enjoy.

It's endlessly depressing, even though I know I am keeping myself out of clinical depression after learning how to deal with depressive issues more proactively now.

I wish I just wore an n95 whenever I was around people now, but I know I never would have done so unless I knew how truly awful long covid is.

It's simple! For me I either have to pay that much, be homeless, move to a tiny shitty city with no work in my field, or spend a year trying to find a decent place that isn't totally unaffordable while thousands of competing potential tenants do the same to renters with vacancies. So fun!

My landlord upped my monthly rent $600 bucks this year because he's a cunt and knows I have no fucking choice except to pay him.

Xhamster is probably the last site I would want my personal info related with too lmao

Ngl I'm as high as these kids.

Omg this!

I haven't noticed it too much but I feel like everyone is so used to how Reddit was that it would take some work and a collective agreement between users on the fediverse to shun the low quality comments.

I do remeber that somewhat working on Reddit for a while, but yeah once it became big enough there was no stopping the shitty comments.

I was a slutty nun for Halloween and looking cute in a skirt is definitely possible, but man does it take a lot of work to find anything that fits decently. Dresses are simply impossible to find of course because, as you said, the shape is not at all made for men.

Also that outfit made me want to go full f1nn5ter and dress up in feminine clothes all the time lol. It's so much fun! I'm so down for people to figure out how to make the shape work for masculine body shapes.

I was checking Reddit for news sometimes but it seems I don't have to anymore as I'm finding the same news in both places. Pretty exciting.

Love seeing Republicans just doing Republican things too. The projection from them never fails to show their colours.

If Lemmy stays just niche enough to keep the hoardes of angry internet users away, I think we might just have a goldmine.

Reddit didn't always use to be such a cesspool of hate. I think as things grow and attract the masses, they attract the type of people that are only on the internet to be driven by their emotions. The up/downvote system solidifies that too.

My thinking is that you can have a campfire with 20 people around it and still have meaningful conversations. Put 1000 around that same campfire and shit will go sideways.

It certainly became degrading after a while. I have had some amazing conversations on Reddit, but as time went on they became more and more sparse.

I haven't thought back on Reddit much until lately with all the bullshit that's been happening and man, being in this space reminds me of why I enjoyed Reddit in the first place.

I can relate in so many instances on Reddit where I recognized something and would explain it, but people would argue against (like you said) or my comment would get overlooked entirely as it wouldn't create enough buzz.

I think the fediverse is just the soft reset that the internet needed.

It's actually quite refreshing typing out a comment and not just erasing what I wrote right away like I would always do on Reddit. I always felt like there was hardly a point putting effort into comments on Reddit, unless I was on a more niche sub.
