Frick no!

But for real though, I suck on the whoppers and let the malt center dissolve. Only downside is sometimes it makes the roof of your mouth raw😂

Anything Rob Zombie

I personally like surprise concert tickets myself

This is so wrong! Love sucking on them Whoppers

That shade

A simple combination of Spotify, searching for recommendations, as in “artists similar to _____,” checking out AllMusic for a brief overview and maybe which album to start with.

Healthcare person here. Same camp!

It’s very slow but biggest one I’ve found is !askmeanything@lemmy.ca. It does have good engagement though when someone posts:)

Gearing up for Halloween season and really enjoying the creepy vibes wherever they may crop up, including picking out some indie horror games to play. This looks great (and no jump scares are nice hehe). Thanks for the spooky content! :D

P.S. Small detail, but I like how the wall bends at the bottom in the last screenshot.

Potatoes when cooked then cooled actually greatly lowers the glycemic index, so it’s weird but actually not a bad habit to have!

That’s why I love the MH series - plenty of value, even just solo’ing it. I’m still trying to finish up World, doing everything I want to do. Unfortunately I have to put a lot of time into these games to “git gud” lol. And of course at the same time, real life responsibilities calls. xD Not quite ready to move on just yet!

Wow good on Thailand! I’m shocked not sooner considering all the lady-boy stuff going on lol. Think they’d be down for that kinda stuff.

Asshole cop vs asshole citizen is what the video showed. I’m far from a cop lover but I can see how it feels on the other side of a rolled up window where you can’t see what’s going on and the person inside’s being non-compliant. Don’t fuck around and talk shit while rolling up your tinted window when a cop pulls you over. People in this country are strapped up. Especially in a concealed carry state like Florida that is full of insane people. Cops are on edge for a reason when they’re doing a traffic stop. If I did what Tyreek Hill did, I’d fully expect to be asked to step out or pulled out of my car

Excessive use of force by the cop who clearly wanted to escalate. Tyreek Hill also wasn’t being smart in the way that was handled. We already know how paranoid and trigger happy law enforcement can be. People like to act tough on the internet, but I wouldn’t DARE roll up tinted windows during a police stop knowing how shit could escalate. I’m trying to have them see my hands at all times. That’s exactly the kind of shit that can happen when you’re just trying to get home safe. Whatever it is, it’s not worth it.

I love this theme. This is an epic performance. Thanks for sharing!

Anecdotal, but I think there’s some kind of immunity component. My parents grew up in a mosquito infested country. When we visited said country, us kids were bitten up while my parents were fine. If it was genetics, you think it would’ve been passed on to us. The locals commonly joked that mosquitos like “new blood.” You could see tourists with itchy red bite reactions while the locals were fine.

Damn that might be mine too. We didn’t get to have video games when I was little. Then I discovered PC gaming via Runescape😂

Tildes is a good example of a healthy community that allows for differences while encouraging good faith discussion. They police for tone instead of wrongness and it’s been working out over there. People are generally happy with the discourse.

A lot of it is in site design, too. There aren’t downvotes, because they’re not needed. There’s a lot of proactive moderation coming from the community by using comment labels. Labels help push comments up or down, and some require you to type a reason why, which encourages thoughtfulness instead of knee-jerk hivemind reaction and pile on. The only publicly visible label is the “good” one, so it keeps things positive. The “bad” label alerts mods and has a cooldown time limit, so it’s less likely to be abused. I believe once it’s used on a comment, the person can no longer reply to it, which helps avoid negative back and forths.

Too much growth too fast for sure! Much harder for Lemmy to create its own culture and maintain it. Much harder to discourage toxicity. Notice how healthy communities are often smaller.

Sucks for niche communities but they’ll get slowly spun up over time, and in the meantime they can be found in other places including Reddit. I don’t personally need everything to be a one-stop shop.
