I’m a simple man. I see a cute dog, I upvote.

God damn that’s a great game. At the same time, I think they did this knowing that folks would die all the time, so they didn’t want each death to be super punishing.

Why must this hurt so bad and be so true?

My straight edge dad, a doctor, would comment there are a number of very useful drugs. “Drugs Are Really Excellent” was his interpretation.

I came in here to say just this. I’m a Jewish clergyman, so I deal with this kind of shit a lot. The term isn’t just brainwashing; it’s actively seeking to erase Judaism as part of Christianity. It’s shit like this, combined with Christian Nationalism, which makes me jumpy at first when someone identifies as a Christian.

I was long distance with my wife for over a decade before we started living in the same place. We stayed committed the entire time because we care deeply for each other, and wanted each other to get the education we needed. Did it suck to be apart that long? Damn right. But to say that it’s human nature to cheat when not in the same place is BS.

This is what gets to me about those who don’t vote or describe themselves as “apolitical,” because politics is the impact of society and culture on everyday life. To be apolitical is to feel comfortable enough in everyday living to disconnect from society, most often because of the benefits of wealth and/or white supremacy.

I’ve been seeing a number of people talk about this laptop on Lemmy, and I can see why. I have dreamt of building out a laptop like my desktops, and these folks seem to be able to make it happen.

That made me lol

I’ll chime in with my vote for NewPipe as well. It’s served me very well, and does so much.

I have dreamt of having a druid with all levels of Warshaper and at least 1 level of Master of Many Forms. The possibility of always being in wild shape with all of the benefits of Warshaper sounds so much fun.

I think for a number of us it’s nostalgia, like what @[email protected] was saying. I too was there when the old memes were formed. And I think you’re on to something too, OP.
