They meant the asshole commenter was having a mental breakdown. I'm sorry they said that, it's ridiculous.
You're allowed to grieve or distract yourself in any way you want. (I would discourage anything self destructive obviously)
There's absolutely nothing wrong with going online. I'm incredibly sorry for your loss, and I am sending many good thoughts your way. ♡
Ok interesting, I noticed Fry's voice first! It smacked me in the face how familiar but aged he sounded! I'll have to pay attention to Hermes in the next episode.
Overall, I liked the episode! I thought the topical references toward the beginning were funny.
It felt very fast to me though. Maybe just because it was something new, idk, but it felt like it went by so quick.
Communities can be rebuilt, as we've seen. There really is no excuse at this point for those mods to not leave and start rebuilding somewhere like Lemmy.
Reddit will never reverse course. Maybe their goal used to be aligned with ours, but now they're just a massive corporation chasing an ever growing profit.
ok no one cancel me but i think i like it better than memmy, and ive been stuck on memmy for weeks now
it reminds me of alien blue from years ago!! i'm really excited to dig in and start using it!!
edit: i did have to change the icon bc as a woman, a pink bean looks like a vaguely sexual app lol so i picked tutti frutti
I'm non tech.
I just work as essentially an administrative assistant in a real estate-esque office making $20 an hour.
Just a married woman in her 20s who is sick of Reddit's shit.
Lemmy feels like Reddit to me and Mastodon feels more like twitter
so to me they're both decentralized versions of popular social media
i just think of them as my new reddit and twitter since those companies are sitting at their desks jerking it all day
So what you're saying is, Reddit is fucking creators by not compensating them, but when you take that work and repost it without compensation, it's ok?
Besides, the great thing about Lemmy is that it's not Reddit. It has a whole different vibe. I think it's worth maintaining that.
Yes. I have a husband and a 16 year old autistic son (unfortunately he is very low functioning and does not really help with any chores because of that, despite his age).
My husband works 5 to 6 days a week, usually 12 hour shifts, sometimes if there's a 6th day it's 8 hours. I work 8-5, 5 days a week, but also have about a 45 minute commute one way.
Husband also has a large family and we have a pool, so right now at least one weekend day is usually spent hosting them for swimming.
My best strategy right now is that if I walk by something that needs doing and will take a few minutes or less to complete (think throwing away some trash, tidying the coffee table, grabbing all the dishes in the room and moving them to the sink), then I do it right then. It's not perfect and it doesn't take care of everything, but I'm hoping if I do it more, I'll be able to sort of stack things and do two things at once that need doing and then cleaning will become part of my routine.
But honestly I'm mostly here to get tips because my ADHD brain needs help.
Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies of all time, I can rewatch it at any moment
Overall it's not really fucked up, it's not THAT crazy of a story, there are just some fucked up parts.
Also Meta wants to join the fediverse with Threads.
A lot of it is just people talking about their social media ex, but it IS part of a larger discussion about taking the internet back from corporations.
I'm on .world and i can downvote on the voyager testflight app
