Speaking for America, we’re deeply sorry about him getting a platform.

Elon Musk famously abuses Ketamine to an insane degree.
Makes me never wanna try the stuff.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 1 day ago:
I, as a pro-birth control/pro-choice lady, believe lady-oriented birth control has nothing to do with that (perhaps naiively).
Pregnancy, even the healthiest, safest ones, are hard on our bodies. That means that anything that prevents them is theoretically better than if we’re constantly/repeatedly pregnant. Even if its harmful for mental health or long term effects on organs. Pregnancy fucks us up outright both mentally and physically. Like day one.
Obviously I’m simplyifying a bit, but you understand the gist of my logic.
Men dont have HAVE to deal with pregnancy, period, so anything that introduces harm, even minutely, is automatically a worse quality-of-life option for them.
Am I pro-male birth control? Hell yeah I am. I just recognize that they’re giving up more than we would be to accept the same risks, given that they dont have to experience pregnancy to begin with, and I dont trust/expect them to do that.
Therefore, it makes logical sense to me that we’re the ones targeted.

Its crazy how different tastes can be. I definitely get more of a smoke flavor for Diablo and a tang from Fire.
Fire sauce goes better on a standard crunchy taco, but Diablo is king mixing with the melty cheese and sour cream of a Crunchwrap!
- Comment on Feel like I'm missing out on something 4 days ago:
Every time I eat a Crunchwrap Supreme, I’m going to think of my long distance Bestie, LemmyThinkAboutThat!
Ugh, I wish they’d sell the Diablo sauce in bigger bottles like they do their Hot Sauce!
- Comment on Who was your first childhood videogame crush? 4 days ago:
Dawwww my first video game love was Zell Dincht! I thought his face tat was SO fucking hot.
My husband and I got married on Halloween and we were Rinoa and Squall for the reception.
I fuckin’ love me some FF8.
- Comment on Feel like I'm missing out on something 5 days ago:
Crunchwrap Supremes are GOAT. Dripping in Diablo Sauce! Perfection!
- Comment on Restroom Location 6 days ago:
I’ve never been to SF, but we just moved to NorCal earlier this year and I’m SO stoked to visit. I absolutely believe that there’s a homeless issue there because I’ve been to major metropolitan areas before: Houston, Baltimore, Vegas, Paris, Tokyo, etc etc etc but I simply do NOT buy into the hype of there just being endless amounts of human shit and discarded needles in the streets.
In my head, I have it built up as this glamorous place with good food and pretty bay views with the huge hills and colorful houses and streetcars.
Honestly I think I want to spend my birthday there in March, and I’m pretty excited. Any and all bar/museum/restaurant/atlas obscura oddity recc’s welcome from locals/people who have been are welcome!
- Comment on similar to the word of mouth post, what game did you not expect much from but loved it? 1 week ago:
Fields of Mistria.
Saw it recc’d here on the indiegames community as a new version of Stardew Valley. I figured it would be fun as I’m a fan of cozy games, but I didn’t realize how fun it was going to be.
It’s still in early access and Ive got 100s of hours logged and I’m eagerly awaiting the next update. The characters and idle dialogue is fantastic, and it solves a lot of the things that frustrate me about SDV (as a SDV lover of course).
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Oh fuck, the Republicunts will call it fake news and be like “NO I HEARD ONE NEWS STORY ABOUT AN IMMIGRANT MURDERING SOMEONE ONE TIME SO THEY’RE ALL MURDERERS AND THE STUDY IS FLAWED.”
In short, facts are not going to save us.

Such a missed opportunity for great co-op Sims games. I LOVED the co-op Sims 2.
There are co-op mods for Sims 4, but you and your friend have to go in and manually disable any packs that the other doesn’t have, and it gets a little buggy every once in a while.
Still grateful it exists!

Holy shit, I’m not religious at all, but 5 year old u/potoooooooo is the CUTEST fucking thing.
Ugh, children really are innocent/wholesome, and its the adults around them that inject poisonous ass ideas into their minds.
- Comment on Disney+ cancellation page crashes as customers rush to quit after Kimmel suspension 1 month ago:
I mean, I finally quit Hulu over this, and neither my husband or I had even watched Hulu in about a year at this point. I’d always kept the subscription going “just in case,”. I was the only one paying and neither of us has any qualms about letting it go.
I can’t believe that we’re the only ones in this bracket of users.
- Comment on if charlie kirk is so pro life then why is he dead? 1 month ago:
I wont lie, I watched the Saddam Hussein video like 2 years after the execution happened.
I’m a true-blue-center-of-the-generation millenial, who grew up on the internet (but avoided places like somethingawful) and I got squeamish over THAT video.
It was legit just a shot of his feet swinging but my brain just went “Thats not fake, not a movie, thats an actual human being”, and I got mad uncomfortable.
So, I feel zero percent sadness over CKs death (in fact legit delight! I’m currently out having drinks over it!) But I cannot fathom actually watching the moment a human being’s life flickers out.
I aint built for that.

Bruh we as Americans have such a short attention span/memory I stg.
His first term was “BUILD THE WALL”, “CHECK THE BAFROOMS”, “SHUT DOWN BASES IN EUROPE” and “NO MUSLIM IMMIGRANTS ALLOWED!!!”
None of these ideas he’s espousing are new, they’re just more hateful and damaging. He just got slightly better at understanding politics/government, so now he’s more dangerous/efficient.
- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 2 months ago:
That’s me. I’m a fucking idiot when it comes to computer shit.
I feel like a goddamned wizard just opening up command prompt lmao.
So no, I’ve never booted from a USB. I definitely believe that I’m the minority on here though.
And I don’t watch Star Trek either.
Why am I even here?
- Comment on I feel like it was on purpose 3 months ago:
Okay you just need to stop pursuing higher education.
I graduated with my associates in 2008, which is how I ended up joining the military later that year.

Another FF8 enjoyer here! My husband and I got married on Halloween, so for the reception, I was Rinoa and he was Squall!
10/10 fantastic game!

- Comment on The poop psa absolutely no one asked for 6 months ago:
I told this story on here way back when I first moved to Lemmy, but I went through a period of eating some sea salted beet chips (fucking delicious btw) for lunch every day. I didnt grow up eating beets, no idea why I tried them, but I didnt realize what was happening when I started pissing red.
Got in with my PCM and was panicking like “I have blood in my urine and I’m not on my cycle, and it looks different anyway!”
So he was like “Aight, what did you eat yesterday?”
I felt like such a fucking idiot wasting his time. But a bunch of kind Lemmings on here assured me that it happens a LOT, and its always better to get checked.
That being said, there should definitely be a warning on those chip bags for those of us who lack critical thinking skills lmao
- Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 6 months ago:
Aight, I said I got a zero, and my husband says we both have one. So help me settle this riveting dinner discussion we’re having:
- Paid with a paper check - I say I have because we’ve made earnest money deposits via check, or down payments on loans via check. And he says “no” because the intent is using a check to pay for things like groceries. He says weve never balanced a checkbook so it doesn’t count.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 8 months ago:
To think that vein popped because she was promised a helicopter arrival to her party and Anthony didn’t deliver. His coworkers coming in the background and shutting the door to the conference room, giving these two the side-eye while they were arguing sent me. The level of delusion this woman had was next level and I just remember sitting there at the time being like “Is this what rich people are like?”
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 8 months ago:
Haha, the fans remembered this from the premiere to the end of season reunion. Andy Cohen brought it up a lot in the comments, lmao. I think we all legit thought we were going to witness this woman literally “pop a vein” on live TV at the time. So fucking campy, I love it.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 8 months ago:
Lmao! Thank you! This is such a sweet comment, and I too love when I can feel someone get super stoked over something “silly” online. Something wholesome about just knowing that a legit person is on the other side of the computer getting happy over something inconsequential, haha.
- Comment on check it before you wreck it 8 months ago:
Finally! My time on Lemmy has come! For those who do not know, the phrase “Who Gon’ Check Me Boo?” was uttered by none other than Sheree Spring-Summer-Winter-Joggers Whitfield, of Real Housewives of Atlanta fame, while arguing with her party planner during the Season 2 premiere in 2009. The phrase temporarily shut down the man’s argument, before the conflict then escalated to the point that both were shouting at one another, leading to the iconic vein popping out of Ms. Bone-Collector Whitfield’s neck.
(I know that’s not the point of this post, but the Bravo communities are the thing I miss the most about the other bad place, so when I see a RH reference, I fucking jump on it)
- Comment on White House Faith Office 8 months ago:
True! Some actual info would be nice since this could plausibly be several people it seems.
Drunk brain just lit up last night and was like “The time has come to dispense Real Housewives of DC lore upon the public”.
- Comment on White House Faith Office 8 months ago:
Are we sure this isnt referencing Real Housewives of DC Michail Salahi? Who Broke Up A Whitehouse Dinner?
And also subsequently married Neil Schon from Journey?
- Comment on Beautiful stories like this just make you smile 9 months ago:
Yeah, it’s actually legit fucking insane. I’ve been deployed 3 times, and the amount of infidelity I witnessed from both spouses, every time, was…something to behold. The first time I went I naively thought people were blowing the rate out of proportion before I got there but it was like…so many people.
Like I get that military life is difficult, most people get married hella young so the partners can stay together, and then deployments happen. Deployments happen right after one spouse uproots their entire lives to move halfway across the world with no support system. It still sucks to see because once it all comes out, it tears families apart every time.

Well, as someone who adores horror movies of all styles from pure camp to serious, and as someone who feels hella nostalgia for MD, I thank you for putting The Bay on my radar!
My husband is a super cinephile though, so Im super hell be interested in the others (provided he hasnt already seen them).
