  Yes!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨really makes you think⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My friend is going through chemo treatment, which is wrecking their tastebuds in various ways, and they told me after each infusion they can’t stand the “texture” of water for a few days. Thankfully, it’s also wrecking their cancer!

  Dick broke

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introverts Rock⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introverts Rock⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Again, I feel introversion is being convoluted with social anxiety. I’m totally fine with and even enjoy being around people, I just need a lot of alone time to recharge my battery. Though people see my confidence in social situations and never believe I’m introverted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dude's rock⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Dude’s rock did what?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The phrase "edited it" is soo weird to pronounce⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually kinda like how it feels to say.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is lemmy dying?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’ve been getting a kick out of Anti Meme lately.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"I hope we have an LGBTQ+ president"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a mention of Trump “blowing Bubba” in the latest Epstein files release.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does one learn or start to manage thair life better?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A little more context would be helpful, but in general, I think Atomic Habits and Digital Minimalism remain two of the best books in this general vein.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨F dieting!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Whether a diet is vegan or not has literally nothing to do with how healthy it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨life purpose⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My biggest pro was my social life vastly improving after switching to WFH. As a naturally introverted person, I burned all my social energy at the office and nights/weekends went into hermit mode. Now I’m sitting on my charger all day while I work and actually have the energy to see my friends.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's a bad habit you use to have for a long time but finally fixed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not taking care of myself. I’ve felt so much better and more confident (and practically reversed type 2 diabetes) since I’ve maintained a consistent strength training routine and eaten healthier.

  #BoomerHumor

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why should only guys get paid for donations?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, somehow we’ve combined AI and boomer humor for a new low.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Got my pumpkin today. All ready for Halloween⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I should call her.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the most offensive word I can use that isn't a slur?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a word, but my favorite recent addition was when someone told me her husband, rather than flip people off in road rage situations, just looks at them and gives them a thumbs down gesture, and it makes them so much more mad. I’ve been doing it whenever I see Cybertrucks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fact’s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Washington city officials are using ChatGPT for government work⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So, AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you introduce the Fediverse to other people?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I usually joke I’m too hipster for Reddit and use Lemmy when Reddit comes up, and nobody ever asks for more information. I feel like, at least in their current form, federated apps are too complicated/fussy for anyone who isn’t actively interested in moving away from centralized platforms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How often do guys have a haircut?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I shave my head in the shower every couple of days. Trim my beard once a week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what can I do at my workplace during downtime?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a Kindle and love it, but if you don’t want to go with Amazon, I think Kobos are a solid option! The current best models are the Kindle Colorsoft and the Kobo Libra Colour, but they both have cheaper models as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what can I do at my workplace during downtime?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t recommend getting an e-reader more. It’s so much nicer than staring at a backlit screen for extended periods of time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft mandates a return to office, 3 days per week⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ve looked at how our teams work best, and the data is clear: when people work together in person more often, they thrive — they are more energized, empowered, and they deliver stronger results.

  Would be interested in seeing that data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone in this camp, this is very accurate. I’m simply very selective about the amount of fucks I give at work, and save them for my personal life. It makes me a better worker on top of having better work/life balance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Always so loud 😒⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll never be a dad, but I definitely inherited my dad’s sneeze.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well, shit.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have the ability to do this on your first day, it’s 100% not your fault.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought I was 37 before the gal I’m seeing learned my bday and told me I’m 38. Then I turned 39 a couple of months later, so I aged 3 years in a few months. It’s just a number, and gray facial hair looks great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm on the spectrum. How do I live the rest of my life?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why even ask if you’re just going to deflect opinions you don’t like?

  Hope you get some help, dude.
