In fairness, a massive proportion of people didn’t vote at all, so we really only need to convince them to join a movement. Fuck trump supporters, they can change their minds if they want to, but we don’t need them to if they don’t want to.
Sure, but honestly who gives a flying fuck?
I’m going to watch it anyway, so there.
But as a brain cleanse, try little Emma. It’s not amazing, but it’s cute as hell. Itty bitty humans smaller than sentient racist livestock.
No. I appreciate the thought but I feel like most of the people working those places have never smelled the specific and very particular scent I’m looking for, and throwing shit at the wall to see what’s close isn’t a solution because my brain will trick me but it won’t work the way I hope.
It’s one of those lost memories, I think, like when you want the same game experience but aren’t the same person so super Mario 1 is just really hard instead of being fun..?
I like the smell of jergins shampoo from like 30 years ago. My mom, who died when I was 23, used it when I was growing up, and I haven’t smelled it in literally decades, but I’d know it if I smelled it again, because it’s impossible to mistake for anything else, but you try really hard to figure out what the smell is. Pretty sure it died in the early 2000s (apparently it’s still available but I have no hope it smells the same, because I haven’t had a whiff in so long.. last time was on a bus around 2002)
It had a very unique… tangy? smell that wasn’t floral or fruity or musky or anything. It was just its own very specific smell. Probably all man made chemicals. But it contains volumes of memories.
Interestingly, I still don’t like her perfume (dune from like 1990-2004). I have 2 bottles of it, and I find it very unappealing. It smells like her, sure, but I don’t like it. I sniff the bottle every now and then, for memories. But they are adult memories. The jergins is childhood memories.
If anyone has a really old bottle of jergins floating around, I’d pay money for it..
They looked cute at the time 🤷🏻 and I didn’t know they would be that bad.. I knew they were temporary, though..
I got 5 dermal anchors back when I was 18. They have been nothing but problems. I’m down to 3, 2 having been ripped out this past year.. I’ll let the other three reject whenever they decide to do so (I’ve been preventing rejection for almost 20 years and I’m tired of it). I’d have to pay to get them removed, which I’m not doing.
Don’t get dermal anchors.
I felt that way about blitzball in final fantasy 10 (I think). Never finished the actual game.
The trick I’ve found over years of people-Ing as the person working is to always end with a statement that can either be turned back with ”you too!” without being awkward, or warrants something other than an autopilot response.
Thanks for stopping in, have a great night
Enjoy your meal and if you need anything just let me/us know
Don’t forget to tell your friends about us, and have a great day
Etc.
That way it’s totally fine for them to autopilot the pleasantries and they won’t feel cringey after.
Definitely mine too. It doesn’t even run faster than 1x.. which is sucky slow but my own fault for having too many livestock animals to support my ~60 pawns… (peaceful gets very out of control if you let it) but now I have an outpost mod and as soon as all my kids are adults, most of them are gone.
Just don’t be a woman on Lemmy.
Sure, most people won’t downvote or harass you just for being a woman (a lot will.. we didn’t get the best of Reddit at all, and I doubt the new adoptees are any better…) but they will often enough make things difficult even if they aren’t actively causing problems.
But men of Lemmy (aka the vast majority of the user base since they ran off all the womenfolk) don’t care. They see that as quality control or some dumb shit, because THEY aren’t interested in woman things, so nobody should be, or they think their “as a man” comments should be important or some shit... Whatever the post is about. If it doesn’t cater to them, it can fuck right off.
Which is why cis women make up <10% of the Lemmy side of the fediverse. It’s a disaster for women here.
But I wonder how long you’ve been here. Most of the posts of this nature are from very new accounts and they don’t know the problems yet…

I use a pihole when I’m home, and ghostery browser for link handling when I’m out. It’s incredibly basic so not great for a primary browser, but has Adblock and tracking protection, plus auto-declines cookies, so great for link handling. (I could set up a vpn but I’m incredibly lazy)
I don’t think ghostery browser is still maintained, but because it uses the same lists as their Firefox extension, it still works like a charm.
Also if you want to keep using Firefox, you can try the ghostery extension as well, assuming you are on android where that’s an option (I’m not which is why I use the browser)
