As a general rule I think it’s best to take ideas on their own internal merit without attaching yourself too strongly to particular figures. People are fickle but a well founded idea can transcend its author.

That doesn’t mean you should esteem someone for having one good thought or withhold your contempt of their general character though.

I think reddit skews older and therefore so does Lemmy, but the more younger people who join the more likely we are to get a bit of a snowball effect going! Hopefully some others in your age demographic see this post and suggest something. What are some things you feel sets gen z apart? My younger sister would be considered on the older end of gen z but I don’t think her interests are particularly standard.

I do think forum style communities like reddit and lemmy/kbin are more focused on particular hobbies which span generations more easily. For example I have a background in audio and spend a lot of time on the Gearspace forums which skew much older than me, but that doesn’t make me feel particularly out of place except for the clear class divide (like people recommending really expensive gear to newbies or talking about how they write from their mountain retreat).

It’s been there quite a long time:(

We had blackberry vines in the backyard when I was little along a fence bordering with a neighbor (I think they originally started on their side of the fence) and I cried when they cut them down. They were so delicious!

If you haven’t bailed from the platform completely you certainly shouldn’t join the facebook group “ask for pds from people with institutional access” either

I bought the Runtastic six pack abs trainer and butt trainer (one time $5 fee for each app) several years ago and have gone through each program a number of times with excellent results. Especially considering the workouts were only about 10-15 minutes each (so 30 minutes to do one of each). These apps have been discontinued for new downloads but I bet you could fine similar apps for free or cheap that don’t require subscriptions.

Mine has actually gone down a couple of times with two different car insurance companies. Though my insurance has never been on the hook for a claim from me either.

A lot of rich people like to feel like they’re getting an ‘authentic’ experience on vacation so they visit remote villages and hire locals (who are usually well versed in entertaining rich tourists) to give them ‘authentic’ tours and taste the local booze. I doubt this is what Twain was talking about though.

he did quit over this though

That’s why I asked, wanted to hear people’s varied experiences

Is the lawsuit between him and his rival that they mentioned funny enough to look up?

Does weed still count as drugs? Yoga + weed is the best

Still drawing the line at genocide. Hate me.
