I am so sorry. Losing a loved one hurts so much. All I can offer are the words my grandmother said before she passed: “At my funeral, don’t mourn my death. Celebrate my life. Throw a party and remember the good times.”

You did everything you could. Don’t let anger erase the memories of the good times you had with her.

The rules dictate that I must now announce I have experienced a Loss of The Game.

Deleting the app did wonders for me. Well, Reddit deleted the app FOR me (Apollo user), and I refused to install their adware app onto my phone.

Forced me to only use it on PC, because visiting via phone browser showed like 3 comments on thread, then linked to some other thread, and insisted I install their adware for “a better experience”.

PC I was still browsing and occasionally commenting on old.reddit for a while, with uBlock on high censorship mode. But all my mobile browsing was gone.

Welp. This one again. One more Loss of The Game!

I hate that it’s so on-brand for the US to target a school.

I was born in the early 90s and also have no retirement plan.

I hate that our greatest hope is that the guy is 80 and has shit health.

Clearly the people aren’t going to actually do anything besides disapproving looks and politely asking him to stop ignoring the law and constitution.

Why bother. I’m here to lurk, post an occasional comment, and enjoy. Not to make a reputation or become visible.

Haven’t even looked into how. I think Lemmy is federated with some other types of fediverse styles, too? The interface I’m on doesn’t emphasise individual user pfps. I can see pfps but they’re tiny circles on my phone that I only notice if they’re pointed out.

Because I’m getting rid of the old shit!

I don’t keep up with instace drama too well and haven’t heard about lemmy.today. Mind filling me in? Just out of curiosity.

Taking the Pill has never really been something I considered since I’m not a fan of taking pills outside of medical necessity (exception for ibuprofen because pain sucks). I also kind assumed force blocking it permanently would be really bad for some health reason.

If it’s not though and I can really just deleteit like that… Very much worth looking into. Useful to know!

Some of those aren’t really optional… I’d love to not menstruate, but I gotta wait for menopause for that. Not my choice to bleed for several days and get major cramps and back pain every month. It just happens.

I haven’t, but interesting they exist!

Headphones of almost all types hurt my ears or fall off too easily to be comfortable.

And my new phone has better sound than my old phone and TV anyways. Yes, both of them ARE around 10 years old.

Not surprised; Blahaj mods are pretty known for being ptb. Say one tiny thing they don’t like and suddenly you’re an [something]phobic bigot.

This is what I believed. And I tried to trick the game by doing movements and inputs no one could have planed. Never outdid that planning somehow. They were on to me!

I will make a conscious effort now that I know about this issue and also I’m just commenting because this post has that glorious Bottle of Water response and I want it in my comment history to find easier later.

Tyson.

Iirc, largest meat supplier. Which means they are a huge catalyst to the industry that literally profits on death and misery more than any other.

Their products are corpses, their human workers are in the industry with the highest rate of PTSD from their jobs, and by simply existing they’re helping create superviruses by fostering cramped sheds of half-dead animals that can barely move sleeping on their own shit and being kept alive just long enough to slaughter, using powerful antibiotics that will become useless a lot faster than if we used those antibiotics to protect humans instead of giving the perfect environment for viruses to adapt to and overcome them.

Fuck the whole animal agriculture industry, and extra fuck the biggest corps behind them.

I feel like they wouldn’t be respectful enough to say “brown skinned man”.

Yes I am sure the criminal who already ignores courts amd suffers no tangible consequences for it will obey a ruling he does not like.
