Stop walking so loud. It’s making us mole people very very angry.

My in-laws are in Arizona where there are scorpions. I’m giving them a powerful blacklight flashlight so we can go look for them when it gets dark out.
Sadly war sucks ass.
If it was a command post then there must be a path for Israel to attack. It’s not like Hamas gets to use “one weird trick” to exclude their command center from being a valid target.
If Israel thought it was a military target, did every thing else right, but sucked up then it’s a sucky product of urban war.
If Israel knew it was really only a hospital and attacked anyway — then they are morally and strategically fucked. Rightfully so. (Kinda like how other countries have also overreacted to a terrorist attack and gone after the wrong target).
And of course the reality of all this probably doesn’t matters because a large number of people make up their mind first and from then on ignore and other intelligence even when it’s gathered.
as an “adult” is just a mental construct that was embedded into most people at a young age
and
When you grow up, you realize you’re still the same person but with more responsibilities
… and kids can step up to responsibilities way earlier than we prefer to admit. They might not be as good at it as somebody more developed but they can do it.
Until I have to be.
sadly this is what i means to be an adult. we know when ‘i don’t want to’ becomes ‘i have to’. :(
For keeping my mind off “stuff” I do the headphones and constant audio. Both books and podcasts.
It’s an escape but I also feel like all the problems are still there — and at some point I still need to deal with them. Thus I listen to a lot of books because I’ll need to starts a new one right away.
Interesting listening to a good book again is great when I’m stressed. It keeps me from thinking random bad thoughts but, since I know the story, it still lets me relax or let my thoughts wander a bit.
this implies that servers should focus, like on news, tech, extreme sports, or whatever. rather than trying to be the hub for all topics the way reddit and others are?
Read dragons egg. It’s a little dated but a great story.
I’m looking forward to research on that.
I’ve an impression that “people are even nastier than before” has been a result of Trump era politics which reveled in nastiness — which itself appeared to be a pushback from nasty people about Obama being president. Basically its been a growing divide and was made a lot worse when such a prominent political group doubled down on divisiveness as a tribal identity.
I think it predated covid, which certainly made things worse, but I don’t really know what the cause was.
7: A trump toupee (a “Trumpee” if you will)
Looking back from almost twice your age … you’re not screwed at all, you could have it all ahead of you.
When I was 28 I met my future wife. We’re currently planning a trip for our 20th. It’s been the best half of my life (by a lot).
CO. Mostly dry heat.
I too would like a ‘custom feed’ functionality.
I’m here in my van on a hot hot day doing ‘work’ (in this case a little browsing of lemmy).
cooling me down is a "arctic air’ USB fan with a little water reservoir providing a misting action. I think I said, “as seen on tv” like six times after buying it because how stupid can you get – but i needed a fan and this is what the local hardware store had that ran on USB.
Wow. I love it. Fast, quiet, low power, good air, and the misting function is awesome. I’d buy it again in a heartbeat. (assuming it doesn’t break within a week).
If they don’t want to text you because they care what your device is, they’re not friends you want to have.
(this goes both ways. Lots of apple hate in this thread but, wtf, just get on with life folks. if you give a shit what hardware I run, or think i care about your choices, we’re probably not going to be friends).
The burrito butt is the juiciest bestest bit.
