  Thank you! ❤️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mother⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Quokkas are so adorably happy looking! 😃 I’ve never heard of anyone disliking them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are you feeling?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Feeling really good! 😃 I’m aiming to get my passport so I can travel the world. The destinations on the top of my list are all on different continents. I’ve already got so many plans laid out and I’ve been spending the past week or so mentally prepping myself by watching videos about airports. I haven’t flown in a while and they’re gonna be long haul flights!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Was Donald Trump ever cool?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Before he got into power, hotels and casino businesses of his went bankrupt six times. That’s pretty uncool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He's totally not a Nazi tho⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This adds to an ever-growing list of things.

  • He created a safe space for Nazis on his platform

  • He amplified pro-Nazi content on his platform

  • He offered support for Germany’s far-right AfD party, which uses Nazi symbolism in its posters.

  • He did not one, but two Nazi salutes during Trump’s inauguration.

  • He’s endorsed established antisemetic conspiracy theories such as the “great replacement” conspiracy theory.

  • After receiving backlash for the two Nazi salutes that he did at Trump’s inauguration, instead of apologizing, he posted Nazi puns.

  All the gaslighting from his supporters with “you can’t read his mind” “he’s autistic” and “it was a Roman salute/my heart goes out to you” is quite frankly an insult to people’s intelligence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what’s the deal with nicole?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s likely to be a pig-butchering scam. Essentially, it’s a catfish who lulls people into a false sense of security using stolen photos, and once that has worked, they try to scam them. I’ve received 3 Nicole messages, each one with a different photo, and because the photos are blurry, along with TinEye and Google Reverse Image Search failing to detect them, I believe the photos are actually stills from a video, which would explain how they’ve evaded detection. It’s also possible the photos were just photos that got deleted long ago, and the catfish is using this to their advantage since deleted photos would not get detected.

  On one of the Nicole accounts was a photo of a buttplug, and in that photo, an old white man was visible in the reflection. Once this was pointed out to “Nicole”, the photo was deleted. So whatever their intentions are, they surely can’t be good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What does a week of groceries look like to you?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A bag of frozen chips/fries, potato chips/crisps, 2 boxes of 12 eggs, some cereal, chocolate, maybe a crate of pop and a bottle of milk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the point of the Nicole spam?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve received 3 Nicole messages since I’ve been on here, each one with a different photo. I ran the photos through TinEye and Google Reverse Image Search but I found no exact matches. The photos are blurry somewhat, which implies that they are shots taken from a video, which is a method catfishers have used to evade detection.

  I’ve also read that someone looked into one of the Nicole accounts, and on that account there was a photo of something shiny, and there was clearly a reflection of an old white man reflecting off the object. Once that was pointed out, the owner of the account deleted their account. So whatever the intentions are, I’m sure it’s nothing good.

  I’m guessing it’s a pig butchering scam of some kind. The messages advertise other platforms, along with a Discord server that is named “hell”. The aim is to lull a person into a false sense of security via catfishing and pretending to be the victim’s friend or lover, and then pull a scam on them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What could cause one to randomly twitch?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s known as dyskinesia and lots of things can cause it! Magnesium deficiency can be a trigger for it, but so can certain neurological conditions and medications. Has this been happening for a long time? Either way it doesn’t hurt to get it checked by a doctor for peace of mind!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨does someone who lives very far away from me (for example 1900 miles) see the same night sky as me? (as in moon, stars, etc)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It really depends!

  If you’re talking latidutally, for example, they’re 1900 miles down South, then there would be a noticable difference. If the difference was in longitude, then your view of the night sky would be delayed to them depending on the difference in time zone.

  Fun fact: the visible orientation of the Moon changes depending on your latitude, with the Moon in Australia for instance appearing to be upside down!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nicole got a new outfit!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve read that it’s multiple accounts across instances, so blocking would be tricky. I’ve had three so far and I keep getting different photos with each one, it’s really weird

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nicole got a new outfit!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Congratulations! Each Nicole message gives you 1,000 Fediverse EXP points!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nicole got a new outfit!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t realize you could send or receive direct messages on Lemmy until I got sent this!

  I recently got my third one… 😅

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is anyone else getting a bit of schadenfreude from the news each day?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No. It makes me relieved that I am not an American. Most Americans did not vote for Trump, so I just feel sorry and genuinely worried for the majority of Americans who now have to put up with the outcome of a vocal minority’s votes for the next 4 years. People are already dying over this which is very upsetting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love the future.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  These people literally don’t know what mRNA is, they believe it’s the same thing as DNA because it sounds vaguely similar. It’s good to see actual experts calling him out though! We really need more of this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve only ever used a PC to browse the internet and social media. I’m really not a smartphone kind of person! I think it’s because I’m mostly a PC gamer who has grown accustomed to always having a huge screen and having everything responding instantaneously, as opposed to a 3-5 second input lag on everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal for high sugar contents like in cake icing to make my uvula tickle?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know if it’s normal, but I have something similar where if I eat a lot of chocolate at once my temples start to tingle. It’s been that way for as long as I can remember and I’m not allergic since I was tested for that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why there is no photos of earth from space?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There have been photos of Earth from space since 1946. There’s a Japanese geostationary satellite named Himawari-8 which takes a photo of the Earth every ten minutes.

  The Earth isn’t flat and even the ancient Greeks proved it to be spherical. Some people don’t want to understand physics, and they feel fulfilled by thinking they’re “in the know” about something secret.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I stop laughing at stupid shit all the time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I still laugh at that stupid asterisk chair meme and I have no shame so you’re good haha. Just enjoy it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THE EARTH IS SPHERICAL, DIPSHITS⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember figuring out on my own that the Earth is spherical when I was 6 years old and I witnessed big ships disappearing from the bottom up over the horizon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be safe out there⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just last week, my friend was eaten by a wild New Yorker. Rest in peace Sam Widge…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHY⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fake. If that was me, those baguettes would be gone within 0.3 nanoseconds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Size of an adult Moose. And they are not as friendly as Bullwinkle⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of people don’t realize just how huge moose are. I learned that the hard way when mine got far too big for me to mount so I could ride it everywhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Speaking honestly, what has to happen for you personally to take to the street in protest of the current administration.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If Trump starts invading my country, I’ll happily not only take to the streets, but I’ll sign up for military training and defend it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨eggs in japan⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Now I’m really craving some boiled eggs… Fortunately they’re worth around $3 USD here for a dozen!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The one drawback to walking at night⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As a girl, I love taking walks in the evening/night or early in the morning, they really are a vibe! However if there’s a man who appears to be following behind me, I always grab my keys in my pocket to be ready to fight in case he tries anything. I will also text friends/family when I’m going out and text them when I arrive back home.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is something that keeps you up at night?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My friends. I seem to have this weird ability where if I start talking to someone, time will go by really fast and then we suddenly realize it’s some ungodly hour of the morning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solarpunk AF⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I heard they have really good cell reception.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are you actually doing today?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry about your day. Hope your mom feels better soon and today/tomorrow is much better!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are you actually doing today?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m so sorry about your cat! hugs if you need someone to talk to I’m here! Pets can be our best friends and losing a best friend can be such a difficult thing to go through. In those 11 years I’m sure you gave her the best life she could, and she appreciates that dearly. Be sure to give yourself time!
