Just got a job that is fully remote, and I think I need to start doing this a few times a month. I could do a half day at a local happy hour or something. It’s oppressively lonely as is.

No, I’d rather vote for vegan ice cream first, then vote against driving off a cliff.

I counted the boxes and compared to the number of digits.

Yep, we had a “targeted political attack” in Brooklyn Center (a 2nd ring suburb of Minneapolis) about 2 hours before the protests were set to start.

What a despicable way to respond to a well reasoned and compassionate comment.

Genuinely: snacks and a family photo. Maybe my favorite pen.

Genuinely asking, isn’t that market manipulation? Seems like Ramping to me.

Actions designed to artificially raise the market price of listed securities and give the impression of voluminous trading in order to make a quick profit.

Boost?

Mine too, Thankfully there’s a Boost for Lemmy that I like using.

I stopped contributing to reddit after the API shit, but still lurked and saved links. Now I don’t use it at all, exported my saved links so I can figure out how to curate them.

Great time to go vegan! Cow dairy farms, in addition to being rife with abuse, have been a big contribution to the spread of H5N1 as well.

Does this work for ice cream?

Each panel with Hemingway speaking has him saying exactly 6 words.

It’s cool that, as we’re nearing our end, we’re at least learning more about the beginnings. Sort of has a poetic beauty to it.
