I have thyroid issues, and when one of my hormones is out of wack, it feels like microscopic bugs are crawling all over me, especially in my eyelashes. That was A TON of fun to deal with until I realized what was going on.

A swank and a.. swish?

I had to clink on the link just to see why the asteroid in the image was shaped like boxer briefs. Lol.

"FKRSSHH" is a very appropriate spelling for the sound of an activating lightsaber. I could hear it immediately!

Murder eyes are activated!

I'm a simple person, I am happy photos can now find my pets and put them in albums, especially since two of them died this year. It can't tell the difference between the two that died - littermates, one all black, and one black with a little white spot on his chest - but honestly, if I couldn't see their chests, sometimes I couldn't tell them apart. So completely understandable! No other issues in regular use to report. 12 pro max.

I really don't want to add "pidgeon wearing a strap on" to my search history."

Here, I took one for the team because I absolutely have someone to send that image to lol. First hit was reddit:

Reddit link.

What is neutral good called when the user keeps a large space between the monitors? That's pretty much all of my coworkers, and it drives me nuts.

This would 100% be my setup if I could use more than two monitors. I am incapable of having just one project at at time open, and this would just work so well for me.

autocorrect has fickle'd me in the ass

This caught me off guard and made me laugh. I needed that right now, so uh. Thanks for getting fickle'd?

You don't have to say anything specific to get banned in that sub, you just have to catch a mod on a bad day, which is basically every day. I got banned for a reply to a comment on that sub - not even the OP, just a very buried comment, because they said I was off topic of the OP. My comment was very much on topic and involved how to report an abused child. One of the mods lost their fucking minds that day and banned dozens of people in that post. It wasn't even a controversial post with a lot of contentious comments and rule breaking, most of us were just discussing child abuse resources, which directly related to the OP. Those mods are power- mad fucking nutters.

Good for them. I made tacos for the first time in ages a couple of days ago, and I could not believe the size of the shells now. I would have called them child-sized, they were so small. It's disgusting.

Aye.

I knew that the toxicity of reddit was affecting me, but I didn't realize just how much until the move to Lemmy back in June. Everything was just so nice, people just happily chatted in comments, most disagreements were talked through or an "agree to disagree" arrangement was reached. Seeing the rude, angry people and the trolls creep back in was so disappointing (though I do realize it's inevitable. I used to mod forums back in the day.) Having a good chunk of those negative types on one instances is a positive thing, though. With the tools at hand, we can nip it in the bud by just blocking the lot of them.

Something I think people forget in all these many posts about blocking instances is that blocking is not a permanent thing. The mods aren't hitting the big red button and nuking the instance from existence forever. It can be undone. Times change, people change, forums/subreddits/instances change as they age. If it looks like things may have improved in a blocked instance, the ban can be lifted.
