This same phenomenon is how Trump rose to power. A lot of Americans are dumb AF and traditional politicians sound “fancy” and condescending when they speak, making them notice their own stupidity right in the feels. People like CK and 47 talk at their level and make them feel good about themselves, their regressive ignorant hatred of “libruls”, and so on. It’s Idiocracy in real life.
My pets depend on me and I love them.
Lot of judgement ITT. At least these guys have someone.
My sense of direction and route memory are complete dogshit, and always have been. When GPS became commonplace it was a godsend for me. But some people are still assholes about it and give grief for using GPS for 95% of my driving. Especially older people.
Dumb question: what is this illustration from? I recognize the art style, but can’t place it.
I’m even crankier. I’ve seen a handful of tats that I thought looked awesome. All the rest looked like some bored jr high kid doodled on the person’s skin.
I love that aspect of lemmy.
The ACKSHUALLY snipers, not so much.
I have noticed a few messages slipping through the past several weeks, whereas I used to get basically zero spam.
It’s a staple used in a fuckton of recipes in addition to being a go-to breakfast item. Many Americans stupidly ignore politics, but still pay a lot of attention to the prices of common goods like milk, eggs, bread, gasoline, etc. Folks are living hand to mouth because the billionaires hoard all the money.
I don’t like it, either. And I’m not a fan of the “obsessed with sex while shaming other people for being obsessed with sex” vibe of shit like this.
If you return ‘too many’ items they may suspend or even ban your account. I’m not sure what the threshold is.
And these disruptions can be more than just an inconvenience. People can lose their jobs for being late. They can miss medical appointments and procedures.
Tariffs hurt America. The messaging is that simple.
Watch as we fuck up the messaging.
Same as you. I used to game a lot (too much) in my younger days. Now I use the computer to support my tabletop gaming hobbies, 3d printing, a little coding, and streaming.
Looking at this photo hypnotized me and now I hate the sun.
Blender is incredible. I am no master by any means, but I use it all the time for 3d printing. And I’m blown away by what actually-talented people can do with it.
NAPS2. I go paperless as much as possible, but still have to scan stuff sometimes. It’s the GOAT for scanning.
It is a little strange. But even way back in the day we called PC software meant for user interaction “software applications”.
Here’s how I frame it to myself: that person is basically screaming into the void after I block them. Sure, other people on here can see what they wrote, but 99.9% of them won’t care or remember. I was their “intended target” and I’ll never see their stupid comment. If it makes you feel any better, I’ve noticed a lot of troll types really hate being blocked and complain about it fairly regularly. You blocked them, you won the peace of them no longer existing for you.
Also, if you’ve blocked them for being obnoxious, others probably have, too.
