It's grapes of wrath by john steinbeck

I agree with all your predictions to my questions lol.

Though i don't think rednote will actually take the place of tiktok, I think that's mostly a protest migration & something else will take the top spot -- if tiktok actually stays banned. I do think there's a chance trump will choose not to enforce the ban in a meaningful way because he knows it will rally quite a few young and nieve voters into his camp (plus he'd probably get a hefty payoff).

Same! I think it is nice to have something developing that isn't as overwhelmingly frightening as lots of the things in the works right now. Like this is high stakes and says alot about corruption in America, but like at least it's not something that could potentially put me or my loved ones in harms way.

It's going to be so interesting seeing how all of this plays out. Will meta succeed in reclaiming their market share? Will a new app take the throne? Will congress just keep banning any app that is too popular and not under the american oligarchys control? Will trump somehow leverage this into him being the one to save tiktok? Will loops UI ever be good enough to compete? Only time will tell.

What a strange timeline we live in lol

I'm so sorry you went through such a terrible schooling environment. I work with neurodivergent kids and its so sad to see and hear about some of the 'methods' people think are appropriate. It's truely heartbreaking knowing it's not just you but an entire school of people who were systemically abused and further disenfranchised.

I hope you are able to find a way to heal and move forward in your life, i know how sticky trauma can be.

Edit to add: sorry to comment on such an old post lol, i just realized this tread is like a month old

It's great to see people comming together to try and clean up. Still incredibly sad that yet another oil spill and environmental disaster has happened though :/

Also just an fyi that my instance and app display it as pinned (slrpnk and connect). Also my default is to sort by top.

Idk what it means, just figured I'd also chime in with some extra data lol

Okay cool, i appriciate the recs :) its kind of fun knowing there's so much content to go through & such a huge base of fans

Lol okay that makes sense. Maybe I'll try jumping around a little more instead of powering through enterprise. Any recs on which to start with?

I did really like it :) the first 2 seasons were great, & i thought the 3rd was a bit overly serious but still enjoyable.

I had never watched startreck and i loved lower decks. I did know enough to get some of the basic references, but im sure some went over my head.

In all i think LD was a good starting point for me. I enjoyed the humor and how it didn't take itself too seriously.

I've since tried another series (enterprise since it's the first chronologically) and its fine though i do wish it was a bit more fun. I'm hoping I'll enjoy some of the other iterations a bit more, and am looking forward to rewatching lower decks once I get back to where it's at in the chronology.

Lol LG always has the worst emotes

Super interesting review! I love reading about people's favorite games they have played for decades, especially when they're niche :)

Me and you just think alike lol this post awakened the same sleeper memory in both of us :P

Also I think mine was technically after yours, there were no posts when I went to type my comment and yours popped up after I hit post lol

Naw, we posted at the same time. When I typed my comment (the one i assume you're refering to) there were no comments. Once I hit post this one was already here.

Great minds think alike or something like that lol

Super fair point, I'm projecting human emotions onto the beavers & don't actually know how they feel about the sound of running water lol

From what i remember, it has to do with the noise of flowing water. Bevers find the sound annoying and will cover it until it stops.

I remember a study where they played river noises from a speaker and the bevers covered the speakers with sticks -- even in the absence of any water.

They can happen to anyone. Some hypothesis why they happen include: uv damage to skin, hormonal imbalences, malnourishment, and genetic factors.

I once had one on my shoulder and it really weirded me out lol

Super fair point, you're right that his character would likely be written differently in a more serious story.

I definetly thought he was better as an actual character. Tatum felt more like a one off joke than something to take seriously.
