Casual Conversation

It is a Ford e-transit. Huge white empty sides. I will implement my favorite idea without fail.

I had butterbeans and veggie sausage stew with rice

Electricians are here and are working in the unfinished attic over my head. I keep imaging dust raining down, or worse. My cat has developed a 1000 yard stare probably picturing 180lb squirrels walking across our rafters.

I decided that I had one too many large tables this week thats primary function just served to collect plates and trash.

I always assume that my brain is structured in a way that at least 5% of people could relate to my general thought processes, but it turns out that some of my experiences of being a human are really just a "me" thing. I've often told myself that I'm just like everyone else, and that all of my personality traits are explainable by a mishmash of stereotypes and systemic influences. But I guess there's more to it than that, and I've been selling myself a bit short.

how do I explode them with period cramps suddenly why is a spambot messaging me lmao

I mean:

Dude was like a pillar of the lemmy community and I believe a mod as well. I haven't seen him in weeks. Hopefully he's doing ok.

I think people should pay (way) more attention to the domain name when creating a Lemmy instance. This is, of course, for admins of instances.

I have one after the baby goes to bed but maybe because I don't have it until 9pm or so I feel exhausted the next day...

Without fail the class would end a few minutes early. As soon as I started making the sounds it was like dominoes. Ten minutes left in the lecture but everyone has all their stuff put away and are putting their coats on. I think of this often. May this knowledge set you free a few minutes early.

Been transitioning from Reddit, and Lemmy is such a godsend.

I haven't used a clock in years that I need to manually reset. Older people don't seem to realize clocks on phones and other devices reset automatically.

What is a sub/community that you wish existed (actively) on Lemmy?

I posted a few weeks ago about how I didn't feel like quitting reddit just yet. and, honestly, I still have a hard time not opening my phone every five minutes to check it.

That song or sound that refuses to leave your head?

I've been out of my apartment for a couple of months while it's under renovation, and basically living out of a suitcase in a furnished apartment.

Okay so I'm Gen Z so for the older generations, this might not make sense to you. But basically, this is my experience with life as a Gen Z:

The Roman dodecahedron is an item that has turned up in a lot of sites where people do archaeology. While most items, given time, have their purpose easily or at least approximately deduced by researchers, the Roman dodecahedron's purpose is largely baffling to even the most studied of archaeologists, who have no idea on where to start with it. This in turn would probably baffle the Romans, who would have seen it as a common household item, no different from a spoon or a comb.

One of my goals for this year is to fly more, and fly further. I've got Mauritius, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea at the top of my list.

I remeber 2006 I was in the 6th grade, all the world cup songs, chilling at my local lake with friends, ... maybe it was just because I was a young kid.

I am putting this up on behalf of someone else (I was asked so nobody would get in trouble for bumping while this thread is pinned). This is going to get thread-gamey. Here is how this works. Each person will comment with a feeling. You can go as intricate as you'd like in terms of details, and see if anyone relates. People who relate must reply "+1" to the initial comment, and maybe detail it even more from their perspective or try to explain the feeling for example. Those who don't relate must reply with "-1".

I just entered a text message chat from the group of students of my course, and after talking a there over some days with a sophomore (most of the chat was just me interacting with someone else) someone replied after some time "wow, the freshmen are really getting acquainted, writing shit and what else". That was so out pocket, closed the app and now I am ranting here, is this still kind of behavior normal in your uni/country? Its so bizarre, the guy was just sophomore. EDIT: thanks everyone for the replies, I appreciate them, I think there's some grow on my part to be done, because this seems to be way more common than I think. Welp, kinda of a bummer anyway.

That statement isn't some random thing to grab one's attention, it's something I've seen come to light lately. Those who have been keeping tabs on me will know who I am talking about. Everyone is in a positive frenzy over it. Guess who even helped buy the uni supplies and garb (cuz things like uniforms aren't just for high school) for them?

I've never taken a vacation, and I'm determined to take on this year in Spring. I'm in Pittsburgh area and would like to bring my dog along (he is too anxious for boarding or a dog sitter), and don't want to put him on an airplane. Any ideas?

Earworm - the experience of a song stuck in the brain. I find myself getting earworms so often haha. My latest one is this song, I Want To Be In Fabric by Todd Edwards, particularly the part starting at 2:28. Gives me massive Freezepop vibes omg!

I'm definitely a sensitive man. Like most sensitive men, I definitely find it challenging in the "yeah, you gotta eat 50 lb of bacon, pump iron 7x a day, never smile, and always take on a challenge" world of masculinity. I mean, we've definitely come a long way over the last decade making emotions something men can accept, but we got a long way to go.

I feel like I've dealt with some utterly uncalled for behavior from people at work recently. Like them blowing up at me about something if I'm just asking a polite question, etc.

I lost my hearing aid today.

Something you would really like to do or see, that you could reasonably achieve without too much expense or hassle.

Why? How often? How do you feel after?

it was on one of these threads over 6 months ago someone asked how things were going and i mentioned her cancer diagnosis. feels right to update.

Younger brother asking how to get earn minecoins. You cant. Have to buy them. That dissapointment in his voice. The heart break i feel as the older brother.

whats your go to phone activity while getting paid to shit

As an outsider (I live in Belgium) it feels very weird and dystopian to see everything happening in American politics with Trump and Musk.

I dreamt that I was hired as part of the team to help Trump hold a rally at place with several warehouses. My job was to go around between warehouses making sure everything was in order and people knew how to get from the main warehouse to the fried chicken warehouse which was about three warehouses down.

When talking to other people and bringing up sources, it's common for them to say "I don't like that website" or "it's not trustworthy". On Lemmy, this is most commonly said about Reddit, where you will be questioned if you use it as a source of knowledge or show off something you did there. Wikipedia is another one.

So, as we begin another week: what are your little vices or guilty pleasures that help you get through the day?

It was so fun back then. Not the yelling and moaning we have going on today.

pardon my english

On the couch by the TV, in a chair by your desktop, on your bed with a laptop..? I usually prefer sitting by the couch by the TV and don't really get how people can just survive having a laptop, or to sit in an uncomfortable chair by one's desktop.

Random memory resurfaced of being in the barber's chair. I was 30 years old, Linda had been cutting my hair since I was 3.

What I like to cook recently (I know it sounds disgusting): Tomato-sauce mixed with raw eggs and little cheese bits. Add spaghetti 🍝👌

It was all fun and games two years ago when most AI videos were obvious (6 fingers, 7 fingers, etc.).

The North sea VS The Mediterranean sea I have always wondered which one of these seas have the more unfavorable climate conditions, and hard to work at.

It took me a while to come to terms with the fact that I experience heterosexuality very differently than my peers. I'll describe in broad terms to keep things SFW.

My two year old adopted nephew must have had some bad experience while playing in the bubble bath because for two months straight he fought and resisted and cried whenever trying to convince him to get a bubble bath. His Grammy has been giving farmers baths with baby wipes this whole time.
