I do not still wear a mask, but I really loved having my face covered when I went places during covid. I just felt free. I don’t know why as I don’t have a problem going anywhere or doing anything normally, but covering my face felt good (except on 100 degree days in summer).
I’m a fan, just finished it and I’ve only played New Vegas and FO4.
I honestly just want to watch a good show with an engaging story and themed in a way that matches. Does it fit every bit of lore every created since 1997? I have no fucking idea because I don’t study it like a college course. It’s fine for those who do but I believe the majority are not trying to find faults in every sentence the actors speak.
I liked it, entertaining, exciting, good character motivation, I can’t think of any stupid decisions only to move the plot forward, set design is fantastic, world build is fun. Overall I recommend it.
I use Android, so Fedilab was the app I’m using.
I didn’t want my feed to be an endless stream of news or other languages. So first I joined a smaller server, with a topic I care about.
Then I followed a few journalists, and followed tags I care about like cycling, my hometown, tech news relevant to me, and TV shows.
Lastly after I had that base of content… I went looking for people. When someone posts something I like, I check their other posts… do I like those too? If he’s then I look at who they follow. Big accounts usually don’t follow a lot of others. This is endless but really gave me a consistent group of people who I care what they think and say.
Not easy but worth the time over the course of a week or two.
Also I watched the #followfriday tag where people lost accounts they follow and why.
Also, look at the top accounts lists that exist. Threads accounts have millions of followers so it’s a good bet it’ll be good.
I agree and started putting effort into Mastodon. It took a week or two of filtering and browsing to find users and content but I’ve definitely found a more engaging base of content to interact with that is nice.
I was an engaged redditor who switched 100% to Lemmy and I do not feel quite satisfied with the comments and content.
I’ll stick around, but I find myself on Mastodon and using Ground News more often.
Btw I have comments in my history of how frustrated I was about finding content on Mastodon, but suddenly it clicked after I spent a bunch of time on it. Not a raving endorsement but ultimately I do enjoy it.
Another side note, I was looking for some top users to follow and some have 10k followers, cool. Then I find some federated threads accounts with millions and realize how small we are in comparison. I know why, and I understand it, but it’s truth that small user bases have less ideas.
Have you seen the housing market? Sometimes you have to deal with a roommates bad habits, even if he is a spirit.
At least he doesn’t leave dishes in the sink.
I hear a loud bang as if from another room. Like a trash can falling over, or a someone dropping a bag with about 10lbs on a hardwood floor, or a pushing a wooden chair into a dining table too hard. It’s enough to think “what just fell?!”.
It does not sound like a door closing, or stomping, or something fragile moving or falling.
I startle awake, realize I’m the only one awake, and that there aren’t anymore sounds so it must have been my brain and I pass out fully.
It’s pretty strange and I think it’s funny how I never really thought about it until now.
Based on the comments in the thread, they asked it to repeat before actually having it say anything so it repeated the directives.
There’s a whole bunch of comments relocating it with chat logs.
I have dogs and for the last ten years or so, owned indoor sneakers. I do not like slippers or sandals so I buy some running shoes or something, cheap ones, on sale. They last forever because it’s indoor only. I replace them when they get smelly.
I do not wear shoes that have been outside, in my place.
Works for me!
I don’t know what I expected. Nothing can just be fun anymore.
I come into a comments section to read and maybe find something interesting and we have police brutality jokes, political bullshit, mean comments.
It confuses me that people are thinking about this stuff all the time and trying to jam their misery into everything.
Downvote me, up vote me, I don’t care but I am just so tired of being forced to think about all the bullshit in the world every day all at once. It’s inescapable.
I’m a fan of Dune and this always made me laugh.
It doesn’t have to be perfect, I still watch all of trek even if some series aren’t as fun to me as others.
It’s a huge universe with unlimited stories. Find some likeable characters and let them save the day. I don’t need a “perfect show”.
Love this idea. It’s an idea that’s easy to break down to children as well, help them narrow down their options when someone is talking to them.
This is one that will stick with me for sure.
I actually do not remember where I heard this, but I was unhappy at one of my past workplaces, and I felt like nothing made sense anymore. The purpose of my job, the product, the people… I would ask why or seek deeper understanding and received nothing back.
The advice was “when no one has your back, it’s time to move your back”.
It stuck with me because it applies to friends, family, work, and life in general. If you do not feel supported and able to give support back mutually then it’s time to place yourself in a situation more beneficial for you and those around you.
It doesn’t place blame, it’s simply a validation statement - you feel x, so do y.
I don’t know that they deserve favorite because of what they are, they don’t even have much of a smell! But there is just something about them I love, and maybe it’s memories or how “wild” they look as they grow in bunches. It reminds me of wildflowers in a field.
Black-eyed Susan. They grow in big bunches and expand outward each year in a ring where the seeds fall. Just a simple flower that stands out in late summer in my area and lasts through fall. It’s low maintenance too.
Can’t speak for the author as to their intentions, but that’s what I took from it.
I’m not vegan, I’m not trying to speak for others, but it is my takeaway that the point is an animals life is worth less than a digital steak.
The headline is click bait imo but the article makes a somewhat valid point about the larger use of animal products in everything. The article lists paper money in the UK as an example so a vegan is essentially unable to use paper money without conflicting with their ideals.
I would say the point of articles like this is a reasonable way to bring awareness of how ubiquitous animal products are in everyday items.
I think it’s a valid topic with a headline written by marketing (and their 696 “partners”) and an article written by someone with a point to make.
I want to like mastodon but I don’t want to do the leg work of finding accounts. I like the algorithm to some extent, I want help to find things.
I also have trouble deciding how to support the post. Liking doesn’t do anything and tooting or whatever puts it on my page. I don’t feel part of the community boosting topics I like.
I like voting things up and down.
Maybe I’m doing it wrong but I try and get instantly bored because I have to hunt for everything. I really tried.
It’s a commuter backpack, momentum 30. Has a front pocket to fit a bike helmet, I never use it for that but a big stretch pocket on the front is so useful.
Overall, it just always seems to fit everything I’m carrying with me to most places.
I’ve got a few other smaller travel bags too that I used to store computer accessories and toiletries when I travel.
The dispensers are still around, just all empty. So frustrating. I’m not worried about covid but I don’t want a cold or the flu either…being sick is not fun. Let me keep my hands clean!
