Less bots maybe? I’ve noticed this too and it triggers something in me because on reddit that was always a red flag of upvote bots or whatever cheating they used. I don’t think people use those here, but there’s also no bots that comment garbage.

Goddamn it.

I don’t accept you

I have not thought about this story in years and now thanks to you I will be laughing sporadically probably for the next few days.

Well that looks like an interesting link that I will never click on. Don’t feel like crying today, thanks.

Sometimes I see a dumb post and get mad that I’m seeing a dumb post and then I notice what community its in and I go oh yeah that’s a good shitpost.

Love and hate shitpost relationship :/

Anyway, good shitpost. Dumb boomer message.

In some cases sure, but there are places that require emergency food supplies because their local sources have been destroyed (usually by war or colonization/genocide), so you need to be able to feed people in the interim while they rebuild their means of food production.

Nobody else got the lil heart flowers?

I was house sitting once and tried this… turns out the garbage system in that area is privatized and they all have different garbage days. Which is fucking insane imo.

I hate that I had a brief moment where I wasn’t sure if you were being sarcastic.

What is the platform? When I searched, it led me to an Ai generator website, but why would a lemmy account be required for that?

It’s probably like a BOGO deal. Idk go in there and report back! Support local business

The best alcohol-free strip bar in BC for sure. Nothing better than some cola and dancers.

I fucking hate Doug Ford, but this is by far the funniest shit he’s ever pulled. This is more elbows up than our spineless PM has claimed to be and I am here for it.

This motherfucker got to be in movies and TV too, as if ruining the internet isn’t enough. Every childhood memory I have is tainted by his selfish orange ass.

But pooping indoors is so much nicer :(

That is a fair point, it was effective at opening up a lot of people’s eyes.

I’m not trying to be pessimistic or disparaging, but wasn’t the issue with the 2011 Occupy movement exactly that they couldn’t agree on a destination?

I’ve done this a couple of times and I’d say if you can afford it, it’s definitely worth it. But renting often leaves you in a tight financial situation so it’s not often realistic to be able to do it.

First, your mom is being toxic af and you are not a coward. However, she is not wrong that going outside can help with depression. It likely won’t “cure” you as it sounds like you are in a difficult situation, but it can be helpful to take short walks every day.

That being said, the ICE shit is scary af. I’m not American but I worry every single day for my family members living there. We are Mexican and the fear, IMO, is warranted, because they don’t even seem to care about legal status. I’ve been avoiding visiting for this same reason, and will not go down there until I feel it is safe to do so.

From my understanding though, they are not everywhere as much as social media makes them seem. My uncle and cousin down there (Chicago and San Diego) go about their regular days and even travel between the US and Mexico frequently and tell me they still feel safe doing so.

Even if you don’t go outside, I would highly, HIGHLY recommend disconnecting from social media for a while or limiting your intake. The difference I feel mentally when my usage goes from like 2-4 hrs down to ~30 mins or less is huge. Find another hobby like crafting or even video games if you don’t feel safe doing stuff outside yet.

Lastly, also, I said this to you a few days ago and will say it again, YOU MATTER. You are not a coward & being afraid of this insane fucking world is a reasonable response. I hope you can escape your parents house soon. You got this!
