You are all so cool and supportive and interesting and I am so grateful for this community

did the thing *voted*

I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider.

I’ve always been called pretty weird which is better than being called ugly weird.

my friends being so outspoken, passionate, and aggressive in their disdain for the system is why in fact i want them as my friends

how can you have any integrity as an writer who uses AI slop for not only advertising your book, but for the damn cover itself? your books deserve to fail. probably used AI to write it too… 👀

If you vote absentee like I do, remember you can track the status of your ballot online very quickly and easily to ensure it's received and counted. I just did and saw it was officially received. It gives that extra peace of mind.

love to see the unapologetic positivity here! i think we could all probably take a page out of danny’s book and really take better note of all the traits we appreciate in others. this community has had its ups and downs but overall, i’m still so grateful for everyone here and to be a part of it.

I'm starting a thread of love because I am filled with so much of it & i've heard sharing is caring I hope these honest thoughts make your day today. If I haven't done you yet, I will get round to it at some point or just ask 😁💜

but liiiiike, who’s gonna pay taxes if AI takes all the jobs? 🤔

if i don’t re-pierce my septum again soon i think i might implode, i miss it so much

Anywayssss :)

when i moved, it was really important to me that i didn’t give up the “things that made me-ME” furniture can be replaced, clothes can be downsized, but i wasn’t going to ever get rid of my books, games, vhs tapes, electronics, art supplies etc.

so proud of myself, i deep cleaned and organized SO much of my stuff yesterday. to anyone else, it probably wouldn’t look like much but it was actually SO MUCH 😭 i live in a small apartment and finding spots for everything without overcrowding the space is such a challenge sometimes but i DID IT!!

is it really insomnia or am i legitimately nocturnal

i forgot how to sleep

did you know that every. single. day. in the U.S., a law enforcement officer is charged with a sex crime and at least half of those cases are those involving children. and those are just the officers that have been charged… who really knows how many others have been silenced.

Support locally made ice cream when you can. Man it tastes so much different than store bought.

Long day at work 😮‍💨

is it weird that i’m excited i have time to deep clean my apartment this weekend?

Lastly, stop shaming people for being outspoken That all stems from white supremacy and always leads back to the 'being aggressive' stigma that BIPOC people, women, and LGBTQ+ people face when raising difficult conversations; in history AND present day. White people need to stop being bystanders

Looking up a word i've used my entire life to make sure the meaning didn't change in the last 24 hours. Before I hit send and make a fool of myself in the chat.

hot girls vote

i wish i could do a mute check cuz i don’t wanna keep bugging people on accident if they have me muted.

can someone tell me why this was $15 at a dollar store (they’re all off-brand items too) aluminum foil pepper cuticle clipper that’s all i got. i hate it here.

'Anthropic described the project as “our effort to disruptively scan all the world’s books” in an internal memo, which noted “we do not want it to be known that we are pursuing this project”.'

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

sorry, might be late for work, i woke up to godzilla against mechagodzilla playing again

Being adjacent to the gaming community on here over the last month has made me understand why the country is like this. Folks are too afraid of making waves so they mute their morals for the sake of keeping the peace. You can't overthrow fascism when you can't even tell your friend they're wrong!

To be clear I also think if you are aware that your friend (s) are doing or saying something questionable/wrong and are unwilling to have a conversation about it with them (I think private is ideal), you are doing them and yourself a disservice.
