  • This is probably sarcastic, but in case it's not: Applesauce is a vegan substitute for eggs, not oil. There is no substitute for oil as many oils are already vegan. You can definitely substitute animal-based fats like butter and lard for others like coconut oil to make a recipe vegan.

  • What's that alternative to O365? Isn't that used even on macs?

  • Ah. I always forget sleep works on current HP not total. Don't think I've ever used it once blood was drawn.

  • This is a generalized meme. It's not really about anyone in particular. But tell me why this really engaged you and makes you feel like you need to challenge it. Perhaps you feel it fits closer than you'd like to believe? Does it remind you of something your parents said?

  • ... You went to therapy. This isn't about you.

    But if you're this defensive about a meme? Lol yeah probably bud.

  • men are not women. talk therapy doesn’t work for them

    Uhhhhhhhhhhhh, no.

  • It's impossible to tell. But my statement that pretty much everyone needs therapy, especially men, still stands.

    That and it's a joke meme not a personal attack. Because often men do engage in distractions instead of dealing with their feelings. Everyone does, but men have less-encouraged avenues to pursue dealing with it. This is meant to convey that many men are disadvantaged at dealing with issues, know the solution, but still refuse to try to fix it. It's a common enough occurrence that this is a meme.

    Edit: lol. Lemmy is really full of insecure men.

  • Agreed. Most of us need therapy because we are in an aggressively hostile society. In a humane society, we'd only rarely need therapy when traumatic and rare events occurred, or similar instances.

  • Lights

  • Also the Waffle House sign, which is like the opposite.

  • And when another train complained, they sealed him in a tunnel, Cask of Amontillado style.

  • The vast, vast majority of men (in the US, can't speak to other cultures) need therapy. Just getting over internalized phobias is something the entire culture needs. Really, everyone needs therapy at some point and very few have a chance to get it, and fewer take it.

    But in regards to this meme: men tend to need therapy more. The patriarchy (what society pushes as male "culture") heavily represses emotional expressions and few men have an outlet to talk to their friends or family about their feelings. This leads to a lot of repressed emotions, lashing out, etc.

  • Don't forget you can usually bundle cable with Internet. Right now if I had all of those services plus my Internet it'd be $200/mo.

  • Commercials are present on Hulu on lower paid tiers and now on prime unless you pay extra every month. The latter is new.

  • Telling a woman to "smile more" is indeed sexist. They are people and others rarely tell men that. Also people don't need to put on a smile to please others.

    The Dasher is just suggesting it might be a good idea as a service worker and doesn't know anything about the customer.

  • They need to learn about bananas.

    Also like, 100% of all agriculture and livestock. Fuck. Look at what we did to wolves. If god didn't want us to fuck around with genetics they wouldn't have made them malleable.

  • I made 1 “controversial” comment and I got perma-banned

    From a subreddit or from reddit as a whole?

    My perma-ban happened in a discussion within the r/EveryoneKnowsThat search for a lost wave song

    If from Reddit as a whole, unless the admins have changed a LOT in the last year, that sounds weird. They usually only banned accounts over calls to violence and promoting piracy blatantly.

    I once got temporary ban for saying I preferred Zelda Breath of the Wild over Tears of the Kingdom

    wat. was a small personal sub? That's just a random suspension.

    Not Nice.
