  • Occasionally I will say "how much more to get some product" followed immediately by "how much ya got". If they show change in their palm or otherwise engage honestly, I'll usually top them up. Have your beer dude, if your life is so crummy this is what you need to feel OK go ahead. Never ever ever ever ever ever ever give to somebody that claims they are hungry because that is a bald-faced lie.

    But generally the way I give is to check on the addicts in the bus shelter during extreme winter nights, bring them hot/cold water, supplies to plug wind holes and otherwise keep it warmer, plus whatever I salvage in my travels. In summer I maintain the community "ice water" zone which is just at the stump of a tree, but now that all the people in the hood know it's there, it's raided continually. I honestly can't keep up as I just have a tiny freezer but it's replenished as often as reasonable for me. The community chips in now as well... they've started to bring lidded takeout cups and plastic bottles and leave them there so I don't have to constantly scout containers.

  • I got banned for "advocating violence" in a comment that simply said "I work in support services and I can personally attest that women can be extremely physically and emotionally violent, and to continually portray men as 'the violent ones' in our society, we tacitly deny protection to all people"

    Banned for expressing this horrid thought.

  • Cannabis.

    It's basically mental health disorders in herbal form.

    Public opinion is finally starting to shift from its a panacea to it's a drug, in the face of decriminalization throughout areas of North America.

    I smoke weed and I also work in the field of addiction recovery, so pls don't start the anti science denialism in reply to me.

  • Yes, the feigned self-chuckle the other person had out-loud so the entire comment section could listen, is delusional bullshit.

    MANY parents (and my sister is one) take parenting way beyond delivering the basic needs and rearing, and turn it into their entire personality. From the outside looking in, I can see a huge "mommy group" of women all in competition to assert who's child has the most afflictions, which mom's kid is the most autistic, which mom has the worst anxiety and needs the most free stuff and pity, who's got the rarest condishun....

    Yeah, only a clueless dip would actually think this isn't a real thing. There are a shitload of parents who make parenting their whole life and identity. And they form mini-cults. My sister has been harming her own child since he was born because it gets her more social points in these groups. It's madness.

    Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break

    Why would the NA beer industry standardize on a bottle shape that's grotesquely inconvenient, topples with minimal force, and doubles the required volume to ship?

    I made braised pork tacos with fresh corn tortillas, homemade slaw and pico de gallo

    I made a Hassleback potato. Visually appealing but it wasn't worth the effort.

    What is something that was explained to you wrong such that you could never understand it, and you received a clarifying explanation that finally made sense?

    Mildly Infuriating @lemmy.world

    It seems like all packaged foods do this now

    Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Tech workers - what did your IT Security team do that made your life hell and had no practical benefit?

    Games @lemmy.world

    What game did you find in a bargain bin that turned out to be awesome? For me it was Z by Bitmap Brothers which I got at Zellers for $0.47

    I'd like to find documentaries that are stylistically very different than the apparent norm.
