Please refrain from rude, snarky, insulting or otherwise mean-spirited replies when communicating with me. Agreement with my opinions and views is not required - politeness and civility are. Those unable to follow this simple rule will be blocked and cheerily ignored. Thank you, and have an incredible day.

  • I'm guessing that the 'pastor' has some pretty heavy callouses on his knees that aren't from praying.

  • Vampires suck.

  • Why the downvotes? Was something I said untrue?

  • Show me a period in American history when there wasn't an even split between progress and atrocity.

  • To be honest, every decade has its share of 'greatness' and 'terribleness'. Every generation has its heroes and villains. Sure, there weren't kids on cellphones back in the 80's but your kid would most likely be murdered if they came out as gay in high school. Yes, people weren't digital shut-ins back in the 70's, but cops were beating the living shit out of black people on the streets.

    It's all relative. There never was a 'golden age'. That's not to say we shouldn't fight to make things better wherever and whenever we can, though.

  • "If you don't profit from it, someone else will, so you might as well get yours."

    Don't even get me started on how toxic and self-centered this is...

  • This is the way.

  • Ah, beer - making dinner and your date look so much better than they really are for thousands of years. ;)

  • Yeah. Here in the US, grocery prices are such that I simply don't splurge or go to restaurants, anymore. The steak sure looks good, though!

  • At current grocery prices, I can afford to smell it. Does that count?

  • Fluxer appears to be the most promising, though it is still very new and they are working furiously to get it up to par with a tiny dev team that consists of two (three?) people. Most basic features are quite usable now, though.

  • I did pay for mine (which, admittedly, was quite some time ago), but it looks like library cards at my local library are now completely free of charge. That's awesome! :)

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Do you ever just sit and listen to music, or do you have to be doing something else at the same time?

  • Cooking @lemmy.world

    The kind of 'reality TV' cooking show I would love to see...
