• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do middle aged family men handle it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago⁩:

  Any sort of normal life while working 60 hours a week isn’t going to be easy. I don’t think being a family man is the problem here. Maybe consider looking for another job that isn’t as demanding?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel like a buffet would fix this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Serious question: Why the fuck does he stand like that with his hands turned so his palms are facing backwards and his arms are straight down?

  That is physically uncomfortable to do and looks moronic. I can’t imagine him doing this on purpose, but I also can’t see him holding such an unnatural position unconsciously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JD, you dog.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think technically that makes it an Appalachian Motorboat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of theft, she had to prove her own innocence⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I gathered as well. They mentioned there was doorbell footage but refused to show it to her. I’m guessing they saw she was in town, saw a person that maybe partially could have resembled her maybe if you squinted on the doorbell footage, and said that was all the evidence they needed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft seemingly just revealed that OpenAI lost $11.5B last quarter⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  When you put it that way, I’m actually kind of mad. Most of my retirement is in index funds, so essentially OpenAI just pissed away half a percent of my life savings in the last quarter!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who has access to our email addresses?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for the tip. I wasn’t concerned about using my real email when I signed up for Lemmy when Trump wasn’t the president. Not sure if it’s possible to change the email tied to your account.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Great Depression: Part Deux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wasn’t used to vegetables with structure.

  Lol this just perfectly described my experience perfectly. I grew up eating mostly canned vegetables. When I started cooking as an adult, I didn’t think I liked vegetables. Until I followed recipes cooking with fresh veggies. The “structure” is totally different! And delicious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking math...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Did engineers come up with that last one though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨one bright second⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw that pop up as a recommendation the other day but forgot to watch it until you posted that. Cool video! Weird how they come up with this crazy shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are my fingers black⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My neighbor reported us for animal cruelty once because we had a Samoyed that loved to sit out in the snow.

  Animal Control showed up, looked at our dog happily in a snow pile, confirmed that he had a dog house if he wanted and could come inside of he wanted - and then told the neighbor not to call again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A roundabout⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember that part from Drivers Ed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A roundabout⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This summer, we were driving out of our neighborhood and came across a car that had all 4 tires completely blown out and destroyed. I was baffled at how that could happen, since it was a pretty calm spot of road. Maybe the police had put down spike strips to stop a fleeing car?

  Then on my way back into the neighborhood I went around our round about and saw the tire tracks of a car that went right through the middle but then left the ground. The dude must have done exactly what was in this GIF!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just an FYI⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What kind of sick freak

  Pronounces the word “chocolate”

  With a hard “O” sound?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sorry, guys, it's just not happening⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol I love how Mac is just barely holding it together

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump & Epstein | The Files | The Secret Handshake⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love the idea of this, but don’t really want a Trump/Epstein statue in my house.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being a dude sucks⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I appreciate you making a screen cap of this. Every once in a while my wife will show me a TikTok video of someone just pointing to some text - and I read the text but keep watching the video just waiting for something to happen. Annoys the shit out of me every time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨1919 (correctly)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I would never call that person

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨1919 (correctly)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s weird but at one point in the last 10 years, society just decided that everyone uses vibrate now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about Hiring.cafe - a free job scraping site that lets you filter out Workday and other nuisance ATS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had to enter applications into Workday for my last two jobs - but that was also applying for things through my network so not just blindly applying.

  Wouldn’t removing companies that use Workday for hiring reduce a huge chunk of positions people might be interested in?

  Or is that hiring really at such a bad state right now that it’s not worth someone’s time to apply anywhere that uses Workday?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is so dumb. I love it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US presidents are getting younger over time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, Republicans made a big deal out of how old Biden was, but failed to mention that no matter what, whoever won the election would be the oldest president ever elected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I mean... This is it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Gotta pull back the nuts and give her that emergency inch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He knows his ABCs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t want to defend the Honda Element here, because it is ugly as fuck. But I will say, I got into a friend’s Element a few years ago and was shocked at how much space it has inside.

  Other cars pull a lot of tricks to make them “feel” more roomy inside. But Honda just went “fuck it, big ass cube” and didn’t need any tricks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how t⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I was honestly expecting a lot worse, given the recent hole in neck current events.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mods react as Reddit kicks some of them out again: “This will break the site”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah that is exactly it. They didn’t want mods to be able to disrupt the site again, so they’re looking to make that more difficult.

  God, I am so glad I left that place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨would be useful...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like the text should be swapped here

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UNDER THE THC 🎶⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A restaurateur proposed that exposing lobster to cannabis smoke reduces anxiety and pain during the cooking process.

  I love science
