The alcohol thing is really just an east coast thing, and Utah.

Nah, the bullets would’ve just given up halfway through flight

Betteridge’s law of headlines. Any headline that ends with a question the answer is always no.

There’s literally dozens of us

No one reads the articles man. I won’t lie, I’m guilty of it, but it’s mainly cuz Im lazy and go to the comments hoping someone will give a synopsis.

Never said it didn’t, but reddit is more left leaning than right as a whole.

Lemmy is just straight lefty though. I’m a liberal person so it doesn’t bother me other than it just being a massive circle jerk most of the time.

Look I understood that when I made that comment no one would like it, but it’s just the truth…

I’ve been here since the API garbage from reddit, and use it daily so I feel like I can make an honest assessment of my experience thus far.

I like it, its great. Better than reddit in a lot of ways. If someone is/was a heavy Reddit user I recommend it.

Welcome to Lemmy! If you thought Reddit was left leaning, you’re in for a wild ride!

Also if you’re an American you probably shouldn’t be, because they automatically assume you’re from the Bible belt. They will simultaneously say they don’t care for American politics but then will always be talking about it.

Linux is the best OS just don’t get into it. You better be using firefox. All the niche subs you had on Reddit aren’t here, and you’ll more likely just be blocking communities instead of subbing to anything.

And no one reads the articles, way more than reddit imo

The comments are slightly more interesting though.

It’s not all that bad though, I’m being a little sarcastic, but only a little…

So that’s why my work laptop is down for the count today. I’m even getting that same error as the thumbnail picture

Whenever I see something like this I feel I must defend my friend who’s a cop.

Before being a cop he was a lifeguard at a beach and my bassist.

Baywatch may tell you differently, but being a lifeguard is a seasonal job, and not a career. The next level of being a lifeguard is becoming a cop, so he did, and he has only beaten one black man so far.

Suck for you, but I would expect no less from someone who’s username is SatansMaggotyCumFart.

Dude you hit the nail on the head right there. I’ve been thinking of installing Reddit back because some of the content I enjoyed there is just not here.

Ive tried to recreate the subs I had on Reddit to here, but it’s empty. So I just browse All and block anything that has to do with politics, but it’s impossible because everything is just lefty politics in some way. Like I’m a liberal person, but I feel like I’m considered right leaning from some of the shit people say on here.

And if I don’t have NSFW off it’s just trans everywhere.

Like do what you wanna do, be who you wanna be, but I don’t wanna see THAT lol

Goddamnit, now I have to find all the people that I haven’t spoken to in over a decade and let them know I lost that game. Thanks, I really appreciate it.

I’m 38 and I just achieved that goal.

Don’t stress about this shit (too much).

Go to concerts, take trips, eat your avocado toast. Indulge.

You’re only young once, and everyone is poor in their 20’s. Unless you’re lucky or it’s given to you.

It sounds trite, but success will come. However you measure it.

Ok

I wouldn’t go that far, but we could benefit with less of it.

6 years old all the way. Ok yeah sure, investments, Bitcoin, be rich. However, I’d love to relive parts of my past that I would want repaired that money couldn’t exactly fix.

I’d be a better older brother to my younger brother. Hang out with him, take him to his football games, take him to movies, play video games with him. Instead of being the douchebag party guy that ignored him. We have a good relationship now, but I wish I could’ve given him better memories when he was a kid of his older brother and guided him more/better.

I’d help my Mom with her addiction that took ahold of her because she couldn’t cope with what happened in her childhood. Maybe she’d still be around today, instead of me being so self absorbed in my own stupid shit.

Avoid the bad relationships I was in, and have the knowledge to recognize when a relationship will go badly. Including the parts of myself that help make the relationship bad.

Maybe the money would help with some of these things, but I really think my attention and presence would be more impactful.

Yes, yes they are. Which is why you pay for their services.

If a you pay a mechanic to fix your car, and it breaks down on the way home, you take that shit back and tell them to fix it.

If you pick up your car and the mechanic complains of an overdraft fee from the bank, because everything hinged on you picking up your car at noon instead of 3pm, that isn’t your problem.

Your Song - Elton John (Cameron Bedell cover)

Mainly because I’m gonna play it at a wedding while a friend walks down the aisle they requested me to do. So, it’s on repeat to learn the chord progression, and the little runs he does vocally. By the end of this I will loath the song.
