  Just got two Powerball tix for tonight, thanks! Since one ticket is 50%, two should basically guarantee I win!

  Gonna go kick my boss in the balls and walk out, should be fine, right? Probably.

  Where’s a catologist when you need one?

  I would imagine some of the worst are rare conditions that take you from the inside out. I can’t find reference to the name of the disease, but I swear I remember seeing a bone condition that caused spiky growths, almost like crystals, to form from your bones.

  It would be slow and excruciating and you would beg for death long before it ever came.

  This is great and shows the whole picture better. I’ve seen people concerned about the drop off in daily users, but a look at the posts and comments per day seems encouraging!

  I’m of the mindset, like others, that this place doesn’t need to be Reddit-big to be good, and in fact would be better off not that big. However I would definitely like to see smaller communities grow and see more posts and post variety overall, which more numbers will obviously help.

  Really good read, idk what the downvotes are about.

  Watched this Kurzgesagt recently, a couple minutes in he basically explains how air acts “thicker” for smaller creatures like insects. They effectively do swim through the air!

  This is not a hot take, people are aware of the dissonance of using Reddit to complain about Reddit. But many folks are still upset but not upset enough to leave, or would like to leave but aren’t ready for places like Lemmy yet. It still needs work and polish before the average Joe will be comfortable here.

  So in the meantime I say go for it, having fuck spez be one of the main focal points of the whole canvas is incredible and sends a message. Yea most folks have heard about it by now but might be surprised users are still upset, or never really understood what the big deal was before but maybe they look into it now. Every bit of negative sentiment on Reddit about Reddit will slowly push users away. This is more than a bit of negative sentiment.

  Uhhh no? I just checked, it’s in the middle far right, and if you’re looking at the whole things it’s one of the biggest single pieces that jumps out at you.

  I’m so proud 🥲

  I think overall my social media time has gone down considerably, but my direct interaction (ie posting and commenting) has gone up.

  For me it helps to know that somebody is actually going to read this comment and it won’t be buried under 1000 others. You usually had to get to a post pretty early on Reddit to have your comment be seen, and I mostly browsed /all.
