She may buy into hype but still thinks for herself

I hope he manages to find help. For his sake and that of his family. His bros do not sound particularly supportive

Talking to yourself is not an uncommon way to self regulate and such. Anon took that to the next level. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or impressed

Some games test your skills. Other games test your patience. Both are hard, but the latter is a lot less fun.

It's the difference between a zombie only dying from a carefully aimed headset, vs only dying after smacking it with a stick 274 times.

Fraud, great

Did you report them to their local authorities yet?

I wonder how long the "pretends" remains a thing

TLDR: I am looking for more diverse non-meat options than your average restaurant or supermarket provides. Because they don't quite work for me as well as I'd like.

I am not a picky eater, I enjoy vegan food and non-vegan food alike. I've noticed most "vegan" advertised products are just meat imitations that taste like seasoned cardboard.

Too darn often do I see cooks and stores trying to replace the visuals of meat, rather than finding something that tastes satisfying in it's own way. I'd be eating more vegan food if the options available had a similar convenience and filled me up properly.

Which may sound stupid, but I've tried going vegan and I did not feel great. I guess beans and tofu are not for me. Now I realise I may sound like an uninformed dingus who doesn't know how to find decent ingredients and recipes... That's because I am.

But I would really like to find some options that work for me. And I'm fine with trying 20 things over the course of a month and deciding only a few work for me.

Does anyone here have any advice?

Cows aren't super tall, nor is the occasional tractor. Why do barns often have roofs three stories high?

DuckDuckGo is just a bing proxy. I think Microsoft is working on optimizing it for their copilot thing.

Wanna trade places?

I think I can best break up my experience into three bits, each with their own (possibly odd) comparable sensations.

  1. Hornyness

To me, this feels very similar to when I want to eat. Not hunger, but when I am craving candy, chocolate or caffeine.

  1. Physical sensation

The closest I can think of is the sensation of someone running their fingers trough my hair. Perhaps not your thing, but getting my hair washed at the barbershop is always great.

  1. Orgasm

3.1 Building up

Have you ever had "runners high" or that weird sensation where the pain of lifting weights actually starts feeling good the more it hurts? In that same way, it feels like I'm pushing for a limit.

Similar to a workout, it can also just be uncomfortable sometimes. Why? Human bodies are just weird.

3.2 Orgasm

Pictures this, you're out and suddenly realise you left your phone at the coffee shop. This spike of fear running trough your chest, that has a slight sting to it. That same sensation, but instead of fear it's closer to the feeling of biting into a juicy hamburger after not eating all day.

The train is at my stop, I gotta get out and cycle to work. Perfect timing.

Do you just go to the home/feed and let it be fed to you? Do you have things you follow specifically and nothing else? Somewhere in between?

Maybe this question seems stupid, so be it. But I've seen mostly bad news, and I struggle to get away from it.

I want to know this: What do you think is going to be good and or great in the upcoming four years of us politics?

Pay to read the rest, and no sources linked as far as I can find. They are using a proxy to figure out the weight without bothering to eliminate a bunch of variables either.

Nano and micro plastics are a thing, and it's bad. Just like this article

edit: The reason I find it an odd term is because human ancestry literally doesn't follow a line. It always branches off, even if only to just include two parents. It's a tree like structure, a line would misrepresent it

If we can collectively agree to make unsigned types like uint and ushort the default. Then the signed long type would sound a lot funnier

This should be a pretty basic feature, just not having a private message be there anymore. But for some reason that does not work here?

I tried searching for this. I found a year old open issue on GitHub and some reddit users complaining about this very issue.

Talking with some people in the comments here, it seems like some people don't understand that one might not want a message to be in their face. Or the idea that just because something could be recovered doesn't mean we should treat it as an absolute.

Update: They're hidden for me. I don't know if it's the "boost for lemmy app" or if the lemmy devs figured it out. I don't really mind either way
