“The left”. Who dat?

Naturally. No sense in suffering 0 or 1 times, I have to suffer twice or more!

It’s good to have options. You can’t make people do what you want them to do. Having options means being able to choose one central instance. People are going to be people collectively and sometimes you gotta follow the desire path.

Yeah, you’re not tucking around.

I don’t think a whole lot better off. I don’t think Reddit has a user base that is easily monetized.

The silent majority are never going to have the time to blow on shit that people who get so mentally invested in this stuff do.

That’s what people don’t seem to understand. The silent majority is not mindless by choice. They’re mindless by design.

I sometimes wonder what kind of intentions went into a vehicle sat there like that.

Did they park it there optimistically hoping to repair it? Did they park it there because their optimism ran out and no one would kind?

My curiosity began to wane when I moved to a rural area and realized it’s usually a combination of the two and far less interesting than my hope would lead me to.

Touché

I wish I could be that happy to see other humans.

Ask questions. Either people will or won’t engage but if you have any credibility with them, they have a little bit of buy in to listen to your shit. Then you just might get them curious.

Just the other day I was walking through our local VA campus and I was curious about why every roof of the buildings built in the 1920s has a bunch of little house looking vent things on the top. I think I know the answer but I’m still curious about it.

Probably not a good example of something to spark curiosity with, but you never know what will.

The guy from Capitol Hill needed something to do when his coke machine broke.

Thanks for sharing. My nephew went to rehab recently for Xanax and I didn’t really understand it. I didn’t want to prod him or my sister really, so I appreciate the insight.

I’ve been experience lag tonight. Hadn’t made the connection until now.

It’s so important to distinguish between what games kids play. It really does make all the difference and a lot of parents aren’t equipped with the knowledge or tenacity to pursue it.

Yeah, it’s child dependent really. My oldest is pretty sucked into her minecraft and roblox shit but when it comes time to get off, it’s “ok dad.” My youngest on the other hand is a child scorned in the same circumstance. I’m just glad I don’t have worse behavioral issues with them.

I thought it was because Reddit is like “read it” and Lemmy is like “Lemmy show you this”. Lemmings is a great name though.

I’ve read comments by people saying they enjoy the feeling it gives other people when they give gold. Of course, the person I’m thinking of was long before all the fuckery with the expanse of awards.
