Makes Your Head A-Splode if you think about it too much.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one! 😅

Yeah that’s definitely my problem, I just can’t seem to resist overthinking it 😅

This trope, like how the Addams Family does it, has always really bothered and confused me. Like if the characters followed it to it’s logical conclusion, it wouldn’t make any sense at all, and I just can’t get over that. I don’t know how to explain what’s logically wrong with it, I wish someone would like write a tvtropes page about it

Oh what a cool concept! I definitely have some to contribute

Much like the entire rest of my transition, I took the most cautious (read: cowardly) approach. I picked something androgynous that could feasibly be a nickname for my deadname, and got everyone used to that before ever even coming out. On the plus side, it’s extremely rare for me to get deadnamed now. On the negative side, it’s not the name I would have chosen if fear hadn’t been a factor.

Omg!! Are they finally doing a Starfinder 2e in the same vein as Pathfinder 2e?? Yessss amazinggg!!!

I’m left-handed, and for some reason for me personally, Portuguese style has always been easiest to adapt that way. Might just be me though.

I usually wait till they complain about something related to one of the big corporate platforms, then throw out a “you know, the fediverse has an ‘X’ now, come join us!” Just replace X with reddit/tumbler/youtube/etc, whatever platform they were complaining about.

Alternatively, I’ll share fediverse links in the process of showing memes to people.

I’m not a fan of Bluesky, but i hear tell they got some sorta customizable sorting algorithm thingy right? Maybe it’ll have something like that!

I am very, very excited about it! I check for updates nearly every day lol

I love guys with boobs! A lot of people must, there was actually an entire subreddit devoted to them lol

Wafrn, in MY Lemmy?? It’s more likely than I thought!

Seriously though I LOVE Wafrn. I got into Tumblr right at the tail end immediately before it went to shit, and I always regretted not doing it sooner. Wafrn rules.

Some parts of the Mastodon community are hostile towards VC Funding, AI, and cryptocurrency, particularly because of their entanglement with enshittification and hype cycles. These people are worried that this relationship will lead Mastodon down an unhealthy path that prioritizes the wrong things. It’s a totally understandable concern, but it’s important to remember the mission and purpose of Mastodon’s US entity: to manage and raise donations in the United States. This is not an executive department making decisions for the Mastodon project, and they aren’t shareholders expecting to make some kind of financial returns. A healthy board requires a diverse set of opinions and experiences that educate the real decision-makers so they can get multiple perspectives on problems they need to solve. It seems like this board’s variety of backgrounds has been set up to do exactly that.

…This really doesn’t soothe my concerns at all! Actually, up until right now, I hadn’t even been paying enough attention to have concerns. So… if anything, this article has inspired concerns I didn’t already have.

It’s like if the server at a restaurant came up to you and said “now I know what you’re thinking… we did in fact recently hire some cannibals. But they only work in the business office, not the kitchen!”

Omg I’m sorry, operating on very little sleep here lol. You can’t make CHEESE from human milk, is what I meant…

EDIT: Googled it, apparently human milk has too little protein in general, and specifically not enough casein.

As I vaguely understand it, human milk lacks some specific kinda proteins required to form milk cheese? There’s always a way somehow though

Coconut and honey? Oh no, that one TikTok lady is gonna be so sad…

I’ve never thought about it until just now, but… honestly I don’t really feel like I’ve had much support? Mostly just my boyfriend, who holds me when I’m sobbing from dysphoria. That’s like super important to me but it’s also all he can really do

Did you just call Pennsylvania the Midwest? Did I just this minute find out, right now, from you, dear internet stranger… that I’ve spent my entire life in the Midwest?? I’m sorry, I’m gonna need a minute… I’m gonna go get a hoagie

Whoaa, awesome!!

Interesting, maybe it didn’t used to work! It does have to be the direct link to the image, if that helps. Like, “right click on image, open in new tab”, then use that link? The link to the post itself doesn’t do it.
