Rookie numbers! I unironically use 7 pillows. 3 for the head, 1 for my back (so I can sleep on my side and lean against the wall), 1 between my legs, and 2 to sandwich my feet into.
Anarchist, autistic, engineer, and Certified Professional Life-Regretter. If you got a brick of text, don’t be alarmed; that’s normal.

It’s time to remind Congress that they work for the people
They do? Like I get that’s the pretext for why we remain their subjects, but do we really believe they will ever work for us? The only people I remember them ever “working for” are white landowners.
Actually, most people just can’t afford to leave
Yeah that’s a better answer. Only reason I can leave the house basically at all is because (1) my parents pay for gas and (2) college is the only place I have to go. But my answer is true too; it sucks because everyone is too poor to leave.
Radio music will be almost entirely AI generated by 2035.
I am faithful that humans will continue to be the primary composers, performers, and tastemakers of music even when AI tools are involved, because music is simply fun to do for people who do it. I know I’m simply not interested in giving up my passion even though an AI could do it, and I think most musicians are with me on that. We do it because it is worth doing.
But as far as radio pop music is concerned, I think that listeners will eventually be conditioned to prefer “better than real” (but really more polished than real life) music, just like we have with modern record production, particularly auto-tune, drum sample replacement/augmentation, vocaloids, virtual analog plugin software, compression and saturation, and sample-based electronic music. And once that happens, it’ll be cheaper and more predictable to ask an AI to spit out a song than to pay human producers to do it.
America sucks so bad that I’d literally rather not leave my house

The point of a protest is not to rationally convince the rulers to change. By the time a protest occurs, the “rational” and “legitimate” options have been exhausted. Protests are a show of power by subjects to their rulers, and a threat that more serious consequences will follow if nothing changes. The fact that a mass of people have assembled and are taking action at all is sufficient for a protest to be effective IMO.
So I don’t think “basic” slogans make protests less effective so long as they don’t oversimplify the demands of the protesters. Similarly, creative slogans can definitely help protests be more effective if they sharpen the message they intend to deliver.
I think we’re good now lol.
Hey while you’re deleting stuff can you delete my student loans?
…
Yeah I thought not.
please be sarcastic I beg you
So I rolled a critical fail for reading comprehension and thought the comment I replied to was literally about whether or not we used to call DM’s PM’s 😅.
when they used to be called PMs
I was referring to that part specifically 😅. Yes that’s how I unironically read it.
My username and the hundreds of others like it back on R*ddit indicates otherwise 😆
Because it’s cute and I want more of it 😆
Is this a protest for something I missed or just for fun?
For all the dust kicked up, there’s not much more to it than that.
Some people don’t feel safe on lemmy.world. Some people haven’t felt safe on lemmy.world for a long time. In my view, lemmy.world is not, in general, a safe instance for LGBTQ people, people with pro-Palestinian views, and leftists who refuse to bend the knee to neoliberal impositions, amongst others. It’s basically trying to be Reddit 2.0.
Some people aren’t even federated with lemmy.world but were/are federated with Blahaj. Same reasons as above.
Some people see this as further centralization of the Fediverse. Because it is. Even if lemmy.world was otherwise perfect, we don’t need yet another huge community dependent on their servers and their people.
OP replied to this comment:
And then deleted it. Turbo loser
Literally yes
Holy fucking shit yes we do want to get rid of your stupid fucking mortgage along with the rest of this capitalist hellhole
Me not doing the midterm exam due on Sunday 😭
