Still remember last time I saw this image make its rounds, I think it was edited to be about Mastodon, objectively the lamest part of the fediverse.

This is what will lead me to the full change in diet. I’m at the mitigation and small changes phase. I really don’t have ethics issues with animals as food (farming & hunting meat isn’t bad when suffering is inherent to existence, and to deny this is to deny given order), but we exist in a capitalist hellscape that has zero shame or remorse for exploiting making perverse anything once natural for profit.

For me so far, convenience on mobile when looking up information on physical places and business. I get the phone number, address, and hours of operation without clicking a link.
As I’m transitioning to using Ecosia, that’s what I find myself going back to Google search for most frequently. I tried switching to clicking links on Ecosia to find a phone number to call, and quickly came to the conclusion the websites are enshittified also, or at least ridiculous to navigate and find useful information. On at least one occasion already Google has had the phone number listed at the top of Search for an organization that just didn’t have a phone number provided from themselves anywhere online. (Okay, maybe they had it on their Facebook page, but I’m trying to improve my user experience not soil it).

I miss vaping, my mod broke on me last year after a good run. I am not too well off, and all the reusable ones at the local stores have a pretty high upfront cost I can’t reach bc I’m burning tobacco cigarettes. The vape is cheaper in the long run, I just wish I could quit tobacco long enough to get myself a decent refillable vape again.
I hate the feeling it leaves in my mouth, it smells bad to others, my lungs feel worse with tobacco than vape, and I scrounge for cig butts outside when I’m without. I’m winded bending over to pick them up.
I don’t want to quit smoking nicotine completely, I’ve tried. I just hopefully can make it a vaping habit again before my lungs give up on me.
Signed,
An idiot who thought because vaping was significantly less harmful, got extremely addicted to nicotine, who will likely have lung problems to look forward to in future.

honestly this joke is more in the spirit of what I believe girl dinner should be than girl dinner posts I usually see online. im glad my girls are eating well, but a prepared meal is not girl dinner. shredded cheese out of the bag, grazing some veggies, and maybe some chips, is.

My brain knows spacedicks was not about spacedicks, knows it was something very bad that I did view at one point, but I can’t recall anything I actually interacted with there.
- Comment on Pokemon Go-Get-Help 5 days ago:
I played for a couple months 2 years ago. It uses GPS to determine if you are at a Gym, Pokestop, or not. Users can submit pics for a new Pokestop, but in all that I’ve played, I’ve never used the AR features or submitted pics. A catch attempt looks like this, so does feeding berries and whatnot. There’s different backdrops for time of day if I remember. I barely give anything camera permissions and I keep my rear camera slide covered.

What kind of self hating maniac gives Pokemon Go camera access on top of location permissions? Smh.

Don’t feel bad. My neighbors aren’t opting to starve, just fortunately live in an area with enough food resources that even in the lowest national income bracket we can be somewhat choosy.
I’ve thought about making bulk pet food out of all the waste, because presently it just accumulates until the pyramid gets ridiculous and has to be thrown out, but it’s always there in the lobby just in case someone is at that point of mental illness or just broken in spirit that it might be their last resort. Or maybe their recipe calls for 10 pounds of of chic peas. Eh.
- Comment on Gottem 3 weeks ago:
As someone who lives in a highrise full of impoverished people, please stop pranking us with canned goods.
We have a pyramid of both canned and dry beans in the lobby. No one actually eats them, they just get thrown out to make room for more nonperishable goods the next food bank run.
I’d guess about 20% of what actually comes from food pantries and donations gets used and that’s from perishable/frozen goods. We didn’t get to this level of poverty by being pragmatic and resourceful.
- Comment on Team Car! 3 weeks ago:
Good citizens don’t have such absolutist takes like this. I hope you see how this attitude is just as dumbed as someone who thinks cars are the only solution.
“People should just move.” 🤯🤯
My guy, the people I know that actually cycle, and are about that life, are either privileged enough to exist in a neighborhood that has enough tax funds to bother with any cycling infrastructure (see: privilege, biking is more convenient in these areas) or are so beaten down by the system they cannot purchase a vehicle, maintenance, insurance, and biking is their only option.
You are not only shifting the responsibility of climate change from the uber wealthy to the average citizen trying to not starve themselves or their families in this capitalist hellscape (that doesn’t disappear by the good feels of well meaning people), but are detached from reality while doing so.
I’m guessing you’re not part of any active revolution against your state to change things because it’s inconvenient and bitching about normal people gives you some comfort that you’re actually doing something… but even though the odds are against you, I recommend you go try and change the world from the top with those grandiose ideals, those slim odds are higher than whatever it is you’re doing.

- Comment on Centrists have such a Hard Choice. 4 weeks ago:
the radical left boogieman in my current rural small town actually wants all gender neutral bathrooms in schools, with kitty litter boxes in a stall for otherkin. And they will force you to use your own neopronouns, or they will cancel you, and will make you lose your job.
that’s what these people around here really believe the average neolib democrat wants for society.
- Comment on No ChatGPT for sexy time 1 month ago:
LLMs are horrible at a lot of things, but this is one area where they excel i’d guess. The things are trained on volumes upon volumes of spicy fanfic and roleplay chats posted for free online. They can probably cater to kinks that I don’t even know exist. Because the lonely aren’t seeking objective responses the hallucinations aren’t as obvious.
Not that it’s a good thing that they are okay at this though. I’d hate to find out a person got LLM induced psychosis from their fake AI gf.

I smoked my first blunt before turning on Fifteen Million Merits, my first episode of Black Mirror. Everyone online told me to watch it before Ep. 1.
My emotion was heightened by 10 fold from THC.
I hate this show so much I have watched every episode multiple times.
True joy does not exist to me anymore.

Okay not shy. Use private browsing on firefox sometimes. Not shy, just bisexual and don’t want my algorithm assuming I’m strictly homosexual because of one femboy wank. Do you know how long it takes to un-step sibling that thing for heterosexual porn?

I usually browse /all with anything politics and technology filtered out. It’s pretty much just Trek, Porn, and Boomer comics. I really don’t think fediverse is ready to branch out yet.

I mean, I get it’s inappropriate to be like “what about men”. It’s pretty clear they are talking about blanket judging straight women for Perry’s actions. “Not ALL straight women” - ya see?
In my experience though, they lean towards harassing gay men over queer women. 😅
- Comment on Post title lol 4 months ago:
I have been called weird or passive aggressive for using punctuation in my text messages. Why do we cater to these people? Why do I care about the opinion of someone who takes to heart whether I use an exclamation point or period at the end of a sentence? It should have been their problem to learn to not make assumptions.

Oh yeah, I didn’t think RS was very popular before RS2 so I wasn’t aware they made an original RS server later on.
