God this platform is insufferable. Lemmy is always “Linux is god, windows is satan; iPhone bad, android good” on every post and it’s unbelievably cringe. I can see why this platform still has a tiny amount of users. The elitism is as bad as Reddit vs iFunny/Imgur/whatever a decade ago.

Yes. Yes you are posting way too much. We had a member on our large discord that felt the need to reply to every piece of co tent and every thread, and they were eventually banned; because people stopped opening threads or participating because they knew every time they posted or commented or replied, it would be replied to by that one person. Don’t be that person. You’re not “encouraging activity and making Lemmy more active” you’re being annoying and the inane questions everywhere just make people block you and are discouraged from replying or posting. Take a step back; you don’t need to be everywhere.

Rest in piss you hateful fossil.

I’m the largest collector of Anivia merch on earth, and her biggest fan. I’ve had communications with all the famous Anivia related people, am the best Anivia player in my country, and probably close to the world; but I defs am the biggest fan and follower of her :>

Glad to hear! It’s a fun party trick to pick them and eat them around people who don’t really have a grasp of edible flowers, and they think you’re nuts.

Pansies, and they’re a very common edible flower! Often used to decorate desserts. I’ve picked them for an edible flower farm in the millions. They taste…like lettuce that’s been sprayed directly with perfume…so, not great…

I absolutely love Suno, and having it generate songs for me. I’ve addd several of its songs to my actual playlists while I’m driving, and they have become staple memes and love songs between myself and my partner. We even named her crocheted plushies after songs we made about them in Suno, and it named the plushies for us.

As an Aussie, Curly Wurly’s are crack here, though they’ve gotten far more expensive and are hard to justify buying now given how “small” they are.

What’s alone about that?! The 911 operator thats gets a post mortem call they couldn’t do anything at all to save you?! They have to go home to their family knowing they failed at their job today, they couldn’t save a life.

Or the first response units that have to pick your fucking brains out of the carpet and walls? They have to find you there like that?! The paramedics that have to lift your frozen corpse onto a stretcher and get you out of your house with bits of your head falling into their truck?!

What about the coroner that has to call everyone you know, your parents, and I tell them what they discovered? They need to have this conversation with all of your friends and extended family! Then I hope they have the money and wherewithal to get your funeral sorted through all their turmoil and suffering.

Don’t be so fucking selfish, I wish to FUCK I could tell my best friend just how much of a fucking mess his selfish decision was, how many people he hurt they he probably didn’t think he would, how much damned effort goes into sorting out your life after you’re gone.

Are you that selfish of a person that you don’t give a fuck just how much bullshit you inflict on others with your decision? “Fuck it it’s not my problem anymore, nothing is” Over what, a grand in debt and a run down car? You went through the whole journey of self discovery to become who you are, to come to terms with who you are, in the most accepting time in human history, just for you to fuck it up in the end cause it’s a bit hard? That’s weak. Do better, live you fucking life, be the best you you can be, come out on top.

So…2 months ago I had to find my best friend of 18 years, my brother, my roommate, my best man…In his closet, strung up. I was supposed to be driving him to his trans-sisters birthday, instead; I have to find him like that.

I haven’t been able to sleep, eat, dream, walk around the house at night. I had to take a week off work to sort his life out and was fired because of it. I haven’t been able to get back into work due to the trauma. What a selfish thing it is to make someone you care about find you like that. He left behind his best friend, his sister, his cat that I had to give away, his rotting car I just repaired for him out of my pocket, and give it away to his now widowed fiancé. He broke so many souls with his decision. I’m always angry. When I talk to him in my house now in the pitch of the night, I’m always angry. His alter of flowers, his obituary, his picture I have on my shelf, I see every day, makes me so angry.

He’s not in any pain anymore, he left the house a mess for an inspection, he left his shit everywhere, he left everything, because it was too hard for him.

He was selfish, and he’s an asshole, and I will be angry at him until my time is done here, and I can kick his ass again.

Don’t do that to people. Don’t fuck up everyone else that has to pick up the pieces of your decision. It’s selfish, and it’s cruel.

Stick around, you can only go up from here.

I love the crescent moon in the background, featuring a full moon.

The 3 H’s. When someone in your life comes up to you with a problem, you either figure out, or ask them; if they want to be Hugged, Heard or Helped.

A lot of the time when someone is venting at you, they just want to be heard and understood, and I’m the type of man to want to immediately fix the issue, and it’s a bit invasive and often off the mark, so I reign myself in and ask them if they want to be Hugged, Heard or Helped. More often than not, they just want to vent and don’t want me butting in with solutions to their issues.

So the next time someone confides in you, take a step back and analyse how you should respond going forward, it really helped me understand more.

Summoners War. Played for years, gave it up, got back into it recently. Very very good gacha game. Plenty of PVE to keep you coming and working towards something, plenty of great characters with awesome skins, TONNES of free stuff and 3-4 events running parallel at all times, booming community, and a very deep PvP scene if that’s your forte when you want to use the hard work you’ve done in PvP. Can recommend if you’re one for the gacha mobile games.

Oh my god! I 100%ed everything that was available in this game up until some tower where the game just said “hey, no more game, go away” and just wrote it off for half a decade as it seemed like it was abandoned, super stoked it’s actually hitting 1.0! Will absolutely 100% the whole game again, it’s actually so ridiculously good!

Yep, I’m part of the problem. Was super active on Reddit, dumped them, then just don’t really have the energy of fucks anymore to create content or comment really; it’s a shame…
