Couple this with the compilation of spider paws and I just want to cuddle them.

Stop calling me out like this. :P

Me too. I also get anxiety attacks over needles… Last time this happened I was in the ER anyways. I passed out, apparently seized up, they stuck an oxygen tube in my nose and I woke right back up. I remember being asked if I knew where I was and I said “no.” Time before that was when I got my second COVID shot at a drive through clinic… The nurse gave me the shot in my shoulder bone. Passed out in the car while we were waiting and ended up on the ambulance to go down the block to the hospital.

This has happened to me since I was a teenager. I just warn people that I might pass out.

Congratulations! I’ve played your demo and had a blast. It’s been on my wishlist since then.

At first, I thought this was the joke… But then realized it’s because catbox doesn’t load for me, for whatever reason.

“I picked Lemmy.World.”

For me, it was kbin.social - but kbin and lemmy didn’t play well together when I joined (and now it’s in its current state). Then I picked lemmy.world - and they went down one day due to the influx of users. Then I picked sh.itjust.works and I’ve been happy ever since. I’ll be staying here until the day I spin up my own instance.

Simple Green is my go to degreaser when dish soap and hot water don’t cut it.

Not OP, but my favorite faction was dungeon. Getting all those black dragons and having a good ole time across the map… I need to pick it back up.

Honk? Quack? Idk. I tried

I see tenforward is leaking…

I approve.

I miss the $50 phones …

Now it’s a payment plan for X number of months for the phone - no interest on the amount, or a free (or reduced price, I think) of the phone if you have Y plan for Z months.

My dog goes after the catnip filled toys - so all our pets go after the drugs. 🙃

I have an account on kbin.social, lemmy.world, and sh.itjust.works. They are all linked on my respective profiles. I mainly use this one because .world had some issues where I couldn’t view comments on the connect android app about a year ago so I just switched. I like the app interface because it reminds me of rifgp, so that’s why I’ve never given kbin a fair shake.

Memphis design for the colors and patterns, Y2K for the colorful translucent electronics, and Frutiger Aero for the GUIs.

I just bought myself a pair of parachute pants! They’re not nearly as loud as the wind breaker suits of the 90s and early 00s, but I love them.

I just had parent rage remembering how my oldest’s 1st grade teacher wanted to hold them back just because their handwriting was “awful”, and their 2nd grade teacher decided to put all the talkative kids away in their own section so they “wouldn’t disturb the good kids” because THEY ALL TALKED TO EACH OTHER! This was also the same teacher that wrote “did you even study?” on a second graders spelling test when they came home with a D (that particular week had been so hard).

Sorry for ranting, but this was prior to oldest being diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia, and dysgraphia. Sometimes the teachers just see flaws and lable the ND kids as trouble makers or lazy instead of thinking they need extra help. Occupational therapy helped so much with their handwriting, medication and psychotherapy helped with the ADHD, and blue light filters helped with the dyslexia.

I’m sorry you went through all that as a child.

I remember us having an Atari computer along with some Compac computer running DOS in the late 80s. The computers I grew up with were models that we got for free from my dad’s workplace whenever they upgraded. We ran Win 3.1 until about '98. Win 95 was prevalent in the house until the mid '00s. Due to my dad’s job, we always had a computer of some sort in the house.

The computers in my elementary school’s computer lab were Apple 2es - in the 90s.

I didn’t get a cellphone until around 2004/2005, and then it was a hand-me-down from my older sister. The Nokia 5110 - the brick, complete with extendable antenna.
