Oh, goody. The internet’s gonna get a lot worse with a lot fewer voices to hear from.

Appreciate the info, neither of us want to support zionists.
Oh yeah I know, I wasn’t thinking about dating. I’m hideous. I just want to meet someone who doesn’t loathe me. I think it would be nice
ETA I do think being straight is easier even if dating is hard. None of the straight people I know have families trying to cast demons out of them, none of them make friends only to later hear them talking about how their demographic are secretly trying to corrupt America and kill the Jewish people, et cetera.
New job on the way, I should be happy, but I feel insanely depressed.
I wish I didn’t live over an hour away from the gay nightlife. I wake up at 5 and everything starts after I’ve been awake for 16 hours. I’m too sleepy and anemic to make the drive.
I had to see my family and listen to them talk about how jealous they are that I’m forced to live in such a “quaint” backwater shithole even though I’ve told them I hate it. It must be soooooo easy to be straight. I have to jump through hoops to meet someone who doesn’t loathe me, and they’re all jealous.

Stop acting like they’re anything less than transphobic wastes of oxygen, for the love of god.
Alice@beehaw.orgto [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•Hobbies Wednesday - what have you done this week?English1·2 months agoBeen going to the gym whenever possible, not the solid routine I’d like, but I’m still enjoying it. Pruned some houseplants that went crazy after a VERY long depression. A few of them might bounce back, we’ll see.
Also got a few works in progress going. They gave us flowers at work so I have one pressing under a book right now, and I’m trying to propagate the stem. Not confident, but I hate to waste a flower, so I’m trying. Also picked a bunch of succulent leaves up off the floor at work. Hopefully something grows 🤞
Nah. I’m not 100% against it, some are fun or useful in concept, but I’m here to talk to people, and threads littered with grammar corrections and Sokka haikus get old.
If there was an effective vetting process for useful bots, eg the repost sleuth bot, that’d be nice. But the “good bot”/“bad bot” voting system just became its own form of spam.
Rough as usual. Overworked, underappreciated. I have a driving test coming up for a new job, but my current job won’t give me the day off, and I don’t want to quit until I’ve passed that test. I’ll work it out, it’s just stressing me out.
Multiple people online and in person have been unpleasant dicks to me when I honestly wasn’t trying to do anything wrong and it kind of depresses me. I want a social life but I hate people.

He's like, "I don't like those people yelling in the background." Laugh TrackEnglish6·2 months agoTell him they’re ghosts, and the whole joke is that Mystery Inc. keeps finding random guys dressed as ghosts and somehow don’t notice all the ghosts yelling right there
Kind of, and it was a good way to keep trolls and spammers out of sensitive communities, but unfortunately with bots and astroturfing existing nowadays, karma incentives terrible behavior.
I usually feel this way, but I was at a pizza place a, while back, and the cheese on the cheese pizza just looked so much gooier than on the others… I still wonder how much better my life would be if I’d had the gooey cheese instead of the goo-less supreme…
I was a beta reader once and the guy rejected all my alterations where I fixed the quote punctuation. So maybe?
I’m with your girlfriend. I don’t find pineapple on pizza disgusting, but for some reason it just doesn’t gel for me. Same with sausage and jam on a biscuit… One or the other, please!
But anchovies on pizza… yessssss. Get them salty, grimy fuckers in there.

What about you guys? Planning to tighten your purse strings?English4·2 months agoBeen planning on it, but shit just got complicated as I’m switching jobs, and I’ll probably have to provide a vehicle if I want a healthy amount of hours. But I’m also NOT going to buy and modify a car before I’m through probation, that’s madness.
So basically I may or may not get screwed by the vehicle tariffs, we’ll see.
Other than that, I’m kind of playing it by ear. I’m already not a huge spender, but I eat well. I decided a long time ago that that’s the last expense I’ll cut, I love food too much. I’ll get rid of everything else before I go back to living on ramen.
That philosophy is about to become unsustainable. I already know I’m going to have a give up lifting weights soon, so I don’t get as hungry, I just don’t know when.

I never really finished moving last summer and shits just thrown everywhere 😅 I finally got everything off the floor, threw it in a basket, and vacuumed a couple times. Now begins the process of finding homes for everything in the basket.
My cat sheds like crazy even with daily brushing, so the situation was dire

Alice@beehaw.orgto [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What can you not say no to?English2·2 months agoOh same. I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets but with Easter having the passed, someone’s always got bringing a bowl of clearance chocolates to work or D&D night. Heaven help me if someone brings in cupcakes.
Alice@beehaw.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a personal "Damned if you do damned if you don't"?2·3 months agoNever found the right balance. 🤷 I said “fuck it” anyway, because there’s a few reasons being less feminine is more comfortable for me. I like lifting weights but hate a sweaty scalp, so bye bye hair. I like the fit of men’s shirts more. And I realized that there’s a lot clothes and accessories that I find pretty to look at, but I don’t really get anything from wearing them.
It sucks because customers and family both make rude comments, but at least my clothes are comfy.
Neither of us are very techy and I told him I’d look into this for him because he’s juggling 100 different things right now. I think my dumb ass relaying instructions on how to do this, to his dumb ass, would end in tears.
