Rotten potatoes. Not good.

I mean she isn't wrong.

Because I'm a cat?! I knew it!🐈 Meow.

This is not flirting. It is socially maladjusted behaviour. Just because it has worked before doesn't mean it is a good idea.

Pickup artists do all kinds of stupid shit that works that isn't socially acceptable either.

You're arguing about word choices and message. It's about as useful as "thoughts and prayers". Go lobby politicians for UBI, or volunteer for Habitat for Humanity or whatever your local equivalent is. Do something real. Have a nice day.

Playing games with language doesn't solve poverty. It just makes you feel holier-than-thou.

Pro tip: when you find a comment by someone you find interesting or insightful on a topic you wish to see more about - click on their profile and see where else they're posting. It's a great way to find additional communities.

Furthermore, lemmyverse.net is amazing for finding communities.

The pendulum has swung too far. Come back to the centre.

Maybe they could send some firefighters instead

Captain Picard was great!

Everyone making a huge problem outta this. Wait until birds are gone if they're there (fall or winter is fine). Borrow a ladder (preferably fibreglass), and gently remove while wearing gloves. Doesn't look like any wires are damaged or at risk.

Someone else suggested a leaf blower. Might work. ;)

Daaaad

Pissing into the wind.

Amazing!

Try giving them catnip

It's a deep subject

We had to wager our houses to get the initial loans during startup. Loans are almost finished.

If I'm frugal, about a year. But I own a small business and this would only occur if my business is bankrupt. In which case debtors might chase my personal assets.

I actually locked the D&D community on lemmy.ca that I created once the ttrpg.network D&D community took off. I recommend that one. I could reactive the lemmy.ca if someone went sideways with that instance.

I also recommend the lemmyverse.net website for finding communities to subscribe to. Copy and paste the community name -- should look something like !dndnext@ttrpg.network -- into the search box and then subscribe.

Also, try to subscribe to communities that aren't on lemmy.world, even if one exists on lemmy.world. Let's avoid putting all of our eggs in one basket ;)

Before the enshittification took root, reddit was where I interacted the most with people online. You could buy a subscription to get an ad-free experience. It came with a bunch of Reddit gold you could hand out. Basically, help pay for server time, and get an ad-free experience without adblocking.

The amount of time I spent on Reddit I would compare to a Netflix subscription or similar.

In the ramp up to their IPO when they started to fuck with everything, my goodwill evaporated. I stopped moderating and abandoned my subs. Whenever I had new content I wanted to post, I instead post to the fediverse. So, there ya go 😅
