  First, you gotta get ready for grub but being hungry for the kernel.

  Then, you grab the butter and slather it on your keyboard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did you know?...⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I really wish this just said “Did you know corndogs?”

  Yeah! I do! :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Lemmy users feel when they delete their Reddit account⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  How should I feel when reddit starts deleting and shadowbanning my alt accounts?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fresh dystopian hell from Samsung fridges with ads.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This 100%. Also cross-reference IP addresses associated with the fridge’s IP to get Google/Meta advertising IDs on the whole family.

  There’s a non-zero chance that when Grandma comes over, she gets ads just for her as long as she’s there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit global rank is going down⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like reddit is accidentally trying to speedrun dead internet theory.

  I stopped using it when their quality contributor score shadowbanned me because I don’t post enough in the right subs.

  My partner stopped using it for the same reason - account used every couple days for comments also shadowbanned out of no where.

  Starting a new account means grinding for a month or two in subs that force you to spam each other with up votes before you can ever do anything other than post and ask the mods to approve your post manually.

  I be there’s a Linux distro that would run on it.

  Ew - eat an old? So stringy and greasy. You should have been feeding them to a volcano god!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What did I forget?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TIL I am, apparently, as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He really made things worse smh my head⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, that PVC flavor was up there with cherry kool-aid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He really made things worse smh my head⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Scoff! I remember when Thanksgiving was venison and dry corn cobs dipped in sandy beach water.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anti-masturbation DLC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, I’ll check it out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anti-masturbation DLC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Rituals are very important for humans. Always have been, since before we knew how to write them down. They punctuate the year, they anchor cultures, they provide context within a lifetime to measure change, and the seasonal progression defines the agricultural cycle.

  It’s interesting that Buddhism is also on a spectrum, like you say, where the Tibetan versions lean way into their original shamanic roots, and it goes from there down to the nearly secular Western versions. Zenju Earthlyn Manuel write a cool book about the shamanic origins of Soto Zen, and it really all tracks. It’s order overlayed on the ad hoc nature of animism. There’s a gap where intent and, to some degree, ego powers magic, but with Buddhism, it’s like a negative space where you kind of are affecting the world around you, but you’re not invested in outcomes.

  I don’t subscribe to Chaos Magick per se, but I do appreciate the postmodern view and willingness to sort of aggregate what works. Personally, it’s the cringe folks leaning into “I’m a mess, so I do chaos magic” crew that turn me off to the whole movement even though the premise is rational and based. That and I don’t like dealing with the costs of doing magick that just come with the territory. Sort of like remote viewing - if it works, then you get results and you’re doing it right.

  I’m pleasantly surprised at Lemmy’s response to this comment, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Change my mind⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  OK, come find me on a youtube video about sheep cheese and I’ll debate you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Holy shiiiiit⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah - that’s my bad, I forgot civilized places in the world had pension still and not speculative con jobs where we prop up the private industry via the stock market with retirement money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's always about dat math⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When people tell me they get food delivered that isn’t a classic range of delivery foods (plus Ethiopian) so they can not be disturbed doomscrolling or binging TV, I immediately think less of them. Especially when it’s food that very obviously doesn’t travel well.

  In the time it takes to pick something and get it to you, you can cook 1 of 900 million things that will be better. Even when drunk. Even when high AF. FFS, even frozen pizza is faster then delivery. Let alone the cost. Soggy-ass fry eating MFers deserve the cold sad food you eat.

  This happens in the developing world on occasion, with the assumption is that insurance pays out to the family. I’m 99% sure doing the deed yourself means it doesn’t pay out at all. Tragic all the way down.

  If you look at the insanity of the denial, it’s all over the map. Favorite I saw was that Epstein hated Trump, so none of this was possible, and being banned from Cheney’s funeral was a badge of honor.

  …as if the money part didn’t work in anywhere. As if Bannon and Epstein weren’t literally all over the emails, and Trump didn’t reach out and try and lure him back in after he won in 2016.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The best show that never got the CGI or plot development or really much else it deserved beyond trying to get Jennifer Sky and Gina Torres something to lure Xena fans away as they started to sunset that series.

  TIL that Gina Torres sings the theme. Never knew that, and I love it so much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah yes, Orthodox^Orthodox Christmas

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Had to look this up⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure - but I’m also still wondering what the consensus is on Frank-N-Furter. Hero? Antihero? Villain? When I search online, I get all 3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Had to look this up⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait…is Dr. Frank-N-Furter a villain? I always thought he was the hero and Riff-Raff was the villain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Had to look this up⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The erasure of Worst Witch is a crime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Snacks

  Yeah, sign, I’m excited about it, too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it gay to have pleasurable sex with your wife?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No they don’t. They don’t wonder about anything at all, let alone what women think.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Love The Future⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They were also late because they didn’t buy enough credits for their clock app to wake them up in time to get to work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scandal⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Second comment just to say that Ghislane Maxwell had a horse named Bubba.

  Especially in 2018 when the “Russia Dossier” was all over the place, this is definitely pure sarcastic bullshitting, top to bottom.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scandal⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Completely agree with this. Hilarious, sure, but certainly not literally accurate. With that exchange and when the emails were sent, I would sooner believe it’s all sarcastic BS just getting thrown around.
