Imagine thinking being anti-prescriptivism is a boomer trait. Your brain’s melted

I don’t blame those who didn’t vote for Kamala for her stance on Israel, I get it. I’m just tired of people who didn’t vote specifically against Trump then act really surprised that the Democrats are putting up an anemic defense of our rights, because in theory they should have expected it, given how they voted. Asking why Democrats aren’t stopping fascism when you ostensibly did not support them because you felt they would not do enough to stop fascism should be readily apparent.

I am not using “you” here as in you, piefood, just as a general you

I mean, “neatly lost” here is a disingenuous phrase for “won”. The 2020 election wasn’t even particularly close either, in terms of the Electoral College, which is unfortunately the only part that really.

I agree with you otherwise, so sorry for the pedantry. Dems should have definitely learned from the midterms, and they should have learned Biden was too old for a second term even before he announced he’d run again.

I’d say I hope they learn from 2024 but I doubt it.

“Literal” has been used metaphorically for emphasis by better writers than you, centuries before you were born. Shut up.

I got laid off about five and a half years ago, at the start of Covid. The meeting was with my manager and his boss (who I was also friendly with). I got a meeting invite and asked if we could push it back an hour so I could drive my wife to work, they said sure. I told my wife on the drive that I was getting laid off. Sure enough, I was. They paid me five weeks severance and gave me resources to file for unemployment. It was due to Covid causing a huge drop in money coming in, which was understandable. Honestly, I didn’t like my job, I had already hired a company to rewrite my resumé. So it worked out. At least my boss and his boss had the spine to do it personally. I’ll always give them credit for that.

I don’t know if you have Kroger near you (or one of their subsidiaries) but the Carbmaster brand they sell is good, and only comes out to 3 grams of carbs per 240ml (8oz glass), which is half of what fairlife has. I started buying it when I got diagnosed diabetic. I don’t eat much cereal anymore but when I do, the milk still tastes good.

God bless ya, I tried drinking unsweetened almond milk after I got diagnosed diabetic and I thought my taste buds stopped working because it tasted like nothing. Not in the way that water “tastes like nothing,” but like, in a way where the only stimulus I got was mouthfeel. It was weird.

Imagine publicly admitting you’re too dumb to get the meaning on a t-shirt and then thinking that admission is some sort of point of pride.

I wanted it to be “explore the cursed island full of monsters and traps”, and one of the players just wanted to open a restaurant. No. Bad.

Respectfully, that player is an ass.

A game about opening a restaurant sounds really fun. Playing a character like that in a different kind of game ain’t the time or place though.

I just started running a game of Broken Compass, and I truly am blessed to have my group, because they’re great, but we still all built characters together as part of session zero so I could make sure they all fit the theme of the story I’m trying to have them inhabit.

Lean into it. Engage wih the mechanics and the theme of the game.

Don’t have a huge backstory laid out, because it’s fun to be able to make stuff up in the moment without it having to be a huge retcon.

Know what everything on your sheet does.

Than 35? No, you’re not going to build a new printer from scratch for less than $35, especially if you don’t have another printer to print parts.

Buy a hotend, figure out what you did wrong previously, and fix your machine.

We planted some butterfly milkweed in our back yard this year and I saw a monarch a couple weeks ago. I keep checking the milkweed for eggs (none so far)

So, not solid surfaces, as called out in the image

I mean, Montana has lakes and lakes have beaches…

Ah, the perfect reminder that people on Lemmy can be just as big of dipshits as people on reddit were.

I mean, literally not? The meme about Don’t Dead Open Inside was that the words went top to bottom then left to right. This is the opposite. It reads left to right, top to bottom.

There is a difference between talking about sex and gender and something being sexual. If a shopkeeper mentions his husband, I can extrapolate that he’s at least bi, but that doesn’t mean the game is sexual.

They probably bought it from someone who previously had rented it out.

Either the fees didn’t jump straight to $930 from $110 or the person didn’t do due diligence in reviewing the condo’s budget before they bought.

It must be exhausting, going through life, being this stupid.
