We’ve just been relying on helium deposits that are running dry and have to use other methods of extracting it that are less economical
- Comment on Extended family get togethers 1 day ago:
My best friend has an amazing extended family who vacations together. It’s like 30+ people and almost all of them get along.
I’d be ok never seeing my extended family again. Not that I hate them, I just…don’t really know them. There was some drama in the boomer generation which denied everyone who came after those family connections

Helium is no longer all that scarce but balloons definitely create pollution and kill animals

I only made it 30 seconds into the song itself so I had to just read the lyrics

You’ve got plenty of time. Look, you just saved a whole minute by not reading the article before you commented.

I read through the lyrics and I’m inclined to think that was the feet line was the inspiration for the song. Like she thought of the camino/Tarantino joke and built the rest around it.
She references Hollywood and Kill Bill a few times but it feels like they’re just there to keep the theme (as opposed to like… making a song about his filmography)
- Comment on Anon is a carpenter 3 days ago:
Itst not totally unrealistic to have an apprentice on rough construction not doing much on site. I could totally see a boss sending them to build a construction staircase (open back, just steps) and it only taking an hour or two. It just needs to be good enough to get into the building, it will get replaced by real stairs later (with concrete).
That said, this is 100% fake. OP has never set foot on a construction site
- Comment on Anon is a carpenter 3 days ago:
Workbench? You mean the warped plywood I put on the bags of concrete? Or the lumber sticking out the back of the truck, balancing on some stacked buckets?

Hey small selection of fediverse users, what is the opinion of the entire world on this vague question
- Comment on Do you cheat in games? 1 week ago:
I might give it a spin with mods. I liked pretty much everything else about the game.
I admittedly didn’t get very far, maybe 60 days? But it was furthest I got by WEEKS and I just couldn’t bring myself to start over
- Comment on Can one of the math addicts of lemmy.world calculate how much it would cost to give every adult in the US 5k for voting Republican? Also who is going to pay for it? My guess taxpayers. 1 week ago:
OP doesn’t care. They post every question that pops into their head even if it can be answered in less time than it takes them to write it
- Comment on Do you cheat in games? 1 week ago:
Lol that happened to me playing Don’t Starve. I never opened it again

I can’t wait until my group finishes the actual content of Valheim so we can turn on cheats and build giant castles
- Comment on On the steam forums, there are over TWO THOUSAND PAGES of community questions about "disk write error". 1 week ago:
Your search term is catching a whole lot more than “disk write error”
- Comment on Do millennials keep looking significantly more youthful than previous generations? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think either of those things are true
- Comment on Do millennials keep looking significantly more youthful than previous generations? 2 weeks ago:
Gen Z/A is going to look even more youthful with their lower alcohol consumption.
- Comment on Do people vote just by name recognition on the ballot or do they vote for the issues? 2 weeks ago:
What kind of responses did you expect from this vague, unanswerable post?
- Comment on My possibly degenerating brain and typing comments: Does font make a difference? Can I change this site's font? 2 weeks ago:
…I also make a ton more typos on Lemmy than elsewhere and I have no idea why. I thought it was an update to my phone’s keyboard. Or my touch screen is misaligned or something.
- Comment on Because of Trump, is it now open for someone with a criminal background to hold the office? 3 weeks ago:
…???
Instead of focusing on Trump, think about how badly that would have been abused. The ruling party would find bullshit charges on their political opponents.
It also doesn’t make any sense to outright bar people who broke the law because a lot of times people run for office to change the law
- Comment on Because of Trump, is it now open for someone with a criminal background to hold the office? 3 weeks ago:
That’s besides the point. It’s explicitly allowed to prevent the weaponization of felonies against political opponents.
- Comment on Because of Trump, is it now open for someone with a criminal background to hold the office? 3 weeks ago:
A felony has never barred you from the position and that is by design. Literally nothing to do with Trump

They should be thinking about what they can do to make you comfortable, ideally before they do it, and this guy clearly wasn’t.
I agree that OP’s reaction was reasonable but what about the guy’s actions make it so clear to you that he wasn’t thinking about OP’s comfortability? They tried to strike up a friendly conversation and backed off immediately when it wasn’t well-received.
It’s fine to not want to talk but people really shouldn’t have to avoid basic human interaction just because 1% of people might not be interested at that time.

He stumbled out of the burning orphanage and lowers the last child safely to the ground. “Thank you, you’re incredible!” they shout.
Stoy glances at the man’s clothes and mutters loudly, “wearing white after labor day is incredible?”
- Comment on Anon wants sources 5 weeks ago:
I looked it up earlier and don’t remember the exact characters so forgive the romanization but it’s basically changing “di” to “mis” at the end of verbs.
“It rained” vs “apparently it rained” when you did not actually see it raining but the sidewalk is wet.
“Ali is sick” vs “Ali is supposedly sick” when you did not confirm it (or perhaps doubt Ali’s claim??)

What the fuck, the English stole everything that wasn’t bolted down and they didn’t take THAT with them? PRIORITIES, guys. Skip the French crap and integrate THIS
- Comment on Do dogs actually like having their belly rubbed or do they just know we really like to rub their bellies? 5 weeks ago:
My dog only “lets” me pet him how he wants. If he’s on his side and I put my hand on him, he’ll either roll over for belly pets or do a big stretch for chest scratches. Or nothing if he wants me to leave him alone.
And then other times hell come up to me on his own and flip over. That means he wants me to play his ribcage like washboard

They got some pretty good answers in that thread…Which only adds to your belief that they’re a cop.

Lol I know multiple people born in the 80s whose parents came out of the closet in the 2000s/2010s. Hell, my one friend has two moms now.
