Didn’t forget about the potato. Lol
- Comment on Mind your accents! 1 week ago:
i learned this the hard way when i tried text people in spanish that my father had a great time in the new years party and they were wondering what potatoes had to do with new anal sex experiences. lol
(“mi papa disfruta fiestas de ano nuevo” badly translates to “my potato enjoys new anal gangbangs” without the accents & other punctuation and translates to “my father enjoys the news years parties” with the proper punctuation)

my anxiety about the future got a lot better once i started looking into how we got into this mess and the whole thing started by watching democracy now before watching pbs, or cbs, or abc, etc.
- Comment on How can I migrate my current Lemmy profile to another lemmy instance? 3 weeks ago:
i had a similar thought and i think not trying to treat lemmy like it’s reddit is beneficial here; or at least to me.
- Comment on How can I migrate my current Lemmy profile to another lemmy instance? 3 weeks ago:
i switched instances without bothering to migrate and i’m wondering why you want to migrate anything.

- Comment on Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't? 4 weeks ago:
i’m aware and fwiw; that’s where it’ll be implemented last since the people there are the biggest and best chance at pushing back against this successfully.
- Comment on Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't? 4 weeks ago:
they exist and they usually suck compared to something like comcast or at&t; but they’re much better than a $500 internet bill because you went over your limit or paying considerably more for breaking the contract that you didn’t know you signed when you didn’t read the fine print.
- Comment on Why do cell phones have a data limit but home internet doesn't? 4 weeks ago:
money.
data caps are coming to home internet soon too and with inescapable hidden contracts; switch to an independent isp to avoid it before you’re entrapped into one.

I think the show runner was saying they’re from a different sect of Klingons at first and then they backpedaled as hard as they could almost immediately. L
- Comment on Scavengers 4 weeks ago:
this looks like the trex skeleton they have on google’s campus and it makes me wonder if this is some kind of psyop. lol
- Comment on 'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2 4 weeks ago:
being alive to see the controversy first hand when they first redid the klingons after the first movie and again after discovery has taught me to smile at inter-university controversies. lol
- Comment on The 1900s 4 weeks ago:
are you me? lol
i’m likewise seeking a passport and the bureaucratic maze inspires oddly conflicting emotions.
I’ve got smile lines and the beginnings of crows feet, I am weathered! Why am it getting carded now
i’ve learned recently that i wear tank tops revealing enough that the perpetual double nip slip got me kicked out of a grocery store; so i know that it’s impossible to not see my iron grey hirsute upper body in addition to the copious weight loss induced and age defining face wrinkles that make me unrecognizable on the identification that they use to card me with.

sometimes you have a make a mistake to understand why it’s a mistake. lol
- Comment on The 1900s 5 weeks ago:
it’s an odd feeling to be gatekept from beer by someone who’s younger than the stretch marks & grey hairs on my body and; yet; it makes me feel good to be carded nonetheless somehow.
- Comment on Goddammit Texas! 5 weeks ago:
the reason why we have this mess is because the states get to make up whatever rules they want around voting so long as they never officially block you from voting. doing so would force the federal government to step in, so the red & purple states are careful not to poke that bear and instead focus their voter suppression efforts on the aspects of voting that previous court cases had decided that federal government has no say: like registration.
biden won because several purple states managed to make registration & voting easier (eg most of the battleground states) and they’ve all since then repealed that easier access.
- Comment on Goddammit Texas! 5 weeks ago:
the sound bites you hear about voting are intentionally misleading: you have to show up with an id to vote here too and that’s not where to controversy lies.
the controversy is registering to vote and the conservative states intentionally make registering as heavily bureaucratic as possible in the hopes of minimizing the number of people who cant register to vote.
they’ve also dedicated hundreds of millions on dollars to understand an enact policies to keep the poor and minority groups from voting.
democrats sit back and let republicans openly do it.

the 90’s is when it started to go bad; i’ll take 70’s or 80’s please.

i never realized how pillowy soft the fresh version was until i got the frozen one. the town i grew up in had dozens of other small towns around it with 3 pizza huts combined, so sometimes i would go back and forth between the frozen and fresh versions whenever they ran out of the frozen and stopped going completely when they all switched to frozen full time because it didn’t taste any better than the frozen pizza from the grocery store.
