I had this exact thought right before I scrolled to it. Depending on my brain, I can either lay and go dead sleep, or if I'm racing ill pick up the phone or whatever. I just took my blind cat out to chase moths and I'm not in the mood to sleep. Maybe in a few min. -lemmy addiction
I'd never opt for it unless i couldnt function without it, and I sure don't wanna live forever in a computer, or at all. The potential for abuse is astronomical. Let's hope we have fought for a massive shift in consciousness before this comes to full fruition, right?
I'm in the US, and I just started going to the doc in my whole adult life. My arms are bricked up, tingling, and spasms. Doc says it's carpal tunnel, which checks out. I can't afford anything beyond my general care atp. Apparently I'll need surgery and physical therapy asap, I work with my hand in the trades. I'd be screwed without them as I have zero savings, etc. The doc gave me referrals with nowhere to go. I asked and they said "well your insurance is tricky, find somewhere". Lovely!
I understand that this is the place and times I exist in, but hell if I can't bitch about it (:
Judging by your username, and some of the context, you seem similar to me. These people are right. Go, and stay on top of it. I put off my health my entire life and now I am hurting. Life may be suffering, but it's worth it ime, and it's worth the fight to make it better. I hope you find something worthwhile to crawl out of that hole for. Sorry I don't mean to intrude, I'm just super empathetic to your situation, went through it bad, and I'm just crawling out of the dark tunnel now, in my 30s. (:
I've liked lemmy just the way it is from the beginning. I don't expect it to stay as intimate with this vibe of solidarity and critical thinking, but I'm enjoying the ride. I have always preferred smaller communities in every facet of my life. Small friend groups, small classroom, etc. Once you hit a certain number, things go off the rails fairly quickly ime. But in the end, if we can grow, and keep this same kinda culture moving forward? Imagine that, people coming together for common good.
I would like to thank everyone on here for the last two months or whatever it's been from the start of the migration, and to the people just coming over, and those who were here already. I actually feel like I've grown as an individual in my time here. I'm starting to see certain patterns in my own behavior and working on them thanks to the content and the engaging discussions on here. I used to avoid interaction and lost all hope, but you are all really awesome. Thank you <3
If I have a question that I'd usually search on reddit for, i just make a post here instead and drum up content for the future, plus I usually get way more than I asked for from people as almost everyone here is a damn genius and usually very polite and understanding.
I agree with the niche stuff, but I will say I almost like having to create a post for my inquiry, and though not much engagement, what I do get is really helpful, more personal info from a few kind and knowledgeable people. So I think perhaps we should readjust our expectations and enjoy this for what it is.
I don't think he's gonna try to lie that much at this point, at least not lies meant to portray innocence . I think he's gonna focus on outrage, riling up the whackos who think this behavior is acceptable and warranted. I imagine we'll hear a lot about the usual stuff like "witch hunt", "deep state", etc. He's gonna be pretty blatant about his motives cause he knows he's got. He will attempt to incite violence and perhaps even squeak out a few whatabouts to try and drag a few other corrupt rich people down with him. I dunno, it's gonna be interesting, sadly.
Daytime reality TV drama following orange man's prison escapades incoming. Just kidding, he won't go to actual jail. More like a gated retirement home with all the perks.
I installed sync yesterday, and it's nice. It's very usable without paying for it. In fact, the only reason I could see paying at all is to support the creator. The ads are negligible. I had to look for them to notice em. Basically if you don't wanna use it, don't. Not very complicated imo. There's other apps and the web browser. Your paying for the interface not the content.
