- Comment on what's a polite way to reject a picture with a very thankful patient who was under your care? 2 weeks ago:
Maybe meet them half way? Let them take your picture but should they ask for your number politely decline. Tell them if you gave your number out to every patient your phone would never stop ringing or tell them it’s against hospital policy. Either way they will feel better knowing you don’t give your contact info to anybody not just them.

During the initial mass migration from Reddit I got the impression a lot of people were starting communities on Lemmy that had been successful on Reddit but put no effort into them. I’ll bet there is a statistic yet to be figured out that says you need a million platform members before you can have enough members to sustain a niche community like u/gothcountry.

Care to explain to me how anyone replaces a cistern in 30 minutes? Either this guy got his terminology mixed up or they got ripped off
- Comment on Row as Starmer suggests landlords and shareholders are not ‘working people’ 3 weeks ago:
That’s the strangest argument I’ve heard in a while. Owning a house isn’t a job but maintaining one is. Plumbing, electrical, carpentry, roofing, HVAC are all jobs and if you don’t think so you must be one of these Republicans that think a person who gets their hands dirty doesn’t deserve a living wage.

Your comment doesn’t make sense and is confusing. Are you AI?

My last renter texted me and told me the toilet wouldn’t flush. She said she “took it apart” but couldn’t fix it so it needed to be snaked out. I go there and a neighbor told me she set a can of cat food on the tank for her kitten to eat and it knocked the can into the bowl. She tried to flush it down. Her boyfriend shows up and tells me the same story. She only took the tank off (nowhere near where a clog would be) and she replaced it without replacing the gasket so it had been leaking water. Once I knew what the problem was I fixed it in 30 minutes. Her keeping the truth from me made it take a lot longer and cost more. I charged her $300 less than the property next door in a trendy neighborhood because I didn’t want to be "part of the problem ". Long story short, not everyone is cut out to be a home owner.

I avoid the baby talk with my nieces and nephews after they get past one year old. My oldest nephew said I’m his favorite because I don’t talk down to him

With dogs i think the inflection in your speech is what they pick up on more so than the actual word. Same goes for spelling something out. Next time try singing it

Haha my city had a Dick’s Last Resort, it was fun! My favorite story about that place is when my boss and his wife (unknowingly) went there with another couple. They were VERY proper Brits (in the US) in their mid 70’s. The husband of the other couple wanted to know if there were seeds on the sandwich bun . The waitress asked if he was a some kind of F●●●ing expert. The guy goes on to explain he has diverticulitis without batting an eye

Don’t “both sides” this. It’s the kind of thing people use to justify voting third party. Of the top of my head the Biden admin has been working to restore net neutrality and has an antitrust case against Ticketmaster and Live Nation
