Is that a framed picture of a spoon? Man, Johnny has some great taste.

Also cockroaches.
- Comment on Does it make sense to buy a lifetime supply of honey? 4 days ago:
My first thought was that of the cost of storing it. You never know when something will happen and all of your effort to store it is moot. Like if a natural disaster occurs and destroys your stash, or something happens and you must leave everything behind. Not a huge deal if you only have a few years of it, but a lifetime’s worth?

I knew a guy like this, even in his 40’s. He was active and he smoked a lot of tobacco. His mom is the same way, in her 80’s.
His brother, also in his 40’s, is overweight. Same habits that I have observed.

Oh shit people born in 80 will turn 1945 this year.
- Comment on Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks? 2 weeks ago:
We have food trucks where I am that serve cuisines other than Mexican food, even though Mexican is by and large the dominant food truck type I encounter.
I’ve seen vegan food, macaroni, southern United States cuisine, pizza, and African cuisine. In larger cities, I’ve heard of stuff like a grilled cheese truck. They are out there! But now I would be happy to see a Chinese food truck or a Vietnamese food truck.

I like calls. Messages are nice for simple and quick communication, but for anything more complex calls are easier.
I appreciate when the other person asks because I will sometimes tell them, if now is not a good time, when. Usually in like 10 or so minutes so I can wrap up whatever I’m doing.

I like it because the name is more inclusive. I am incredibly dull and not a man.

I typically enjoy bread sticks by eating them, but your title has really opened my eyes to different avenues of bread stick enjoyment.

Silicone no. But TPE, which melts ~170°C (~340°F) might. Still fake tho.

Make your pancakes with ground flaxseed and warm water to substitute the eggs! I ran out of eggs one day and my family couldn’t even tell I changed anything.

Oh snap, there it is! Cute. :)

Funky, I love it!
It would be kind of neat if you had a headpiece that made your head look like a tree topper, like a star.

It absolutely does not taste the same. Which works for me because I don’t like the taste of cow milk.

They lied to us. The real Y2K was the CRT rapture.

The sequel was not as successful as Seuss’s first volume in the series, One First Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish.

Oh yes, I remember when Reddit came out with multireddits. Loved that, and I miss it.

“All” here vs other social media is much better
It’s more likely that arguments are civil. There are still quite a few venomous arguments but I’ve noticed that it it proportionally less.
On Reddit or Facebook, if you didn’t like a group you left and made your own. If you didn’t like the admins, tough shit. Here, if you don’t like the admins, you can use a different instance.
Likes and dislikes are separate, and are in some cases viewable who submit them. I feel like this keeps people a little more honest.
I like the modlog and transparency. It’s so much easier that when someone complains about unfair mod action, to see if they are in the right or exaggerating.
There is an “end” to Lemmy. There isn’t just infinite content to scroll through.
Dislike
Smaller user base means that niches that Reddit filled just aren’t here.

Neutral
The types of common negative personalities here are different from that of Reddit. Reddit has more misogyny, classism, antinatalists, and obnoxious atheists. (As opposed to the chill atheists.) Lemmy has quite a few people that are pretty shitty to those that are disabled or cannot get out of some situations. If you cannot work towards the greater good without any rest, can’t escape a bad situation, or can’t just extend yourself further, you are trash. There are also more fringe beliefs here. I do like it because of the different perspectives, even if I very strongly disagree. (It makes me think!) Unfortunately we still have the dumbass arguments about generations but you can’t have it all.

It’s great to really stretch in the middle of my nature walks, and take it all in.

I knew a fellow with an over 7" penis when erect. When flaccid, it kind of went… Back in a little, like a belly button. A pubic button if you will.
You’re right not to worry about flaccid size.

Wouldn’t worry about him, then. He won’t engage with me unless I do well on a pop quiz.
- Comment on "You'll end up in a van down by the river" if you do drugs, don't go to college, etc. advice never includes the warning: "Don't suffer major Depression that gives you complete apathy for existence." 4 months ago:
As a formerly homeless person with some sort of chronic illness, yep.
I made it out, but the absolute anxiety of always falling back into poverty weighs heavy. I truly don’t think I can do it again.

I remember having Trillian on Windows way back when.
I’ll have you know I did go back and read my logs from like 2008. I think I cringed so hard I never recovered. You might have saved yourself by not looking at yours!
