That’s the problem with the fediverse in general. It’s a lovely concept, but it’s hard to sell people on something that has 10% (if we’re being generous) of the content they’re used to.

Yes.

It’s a 196 thing, I think.

That’s behavior from games 30+ years ago.

I’m 38 and never plan to stop. Of course, I met my wife through World of Warcraft, and we game together most nights. My parents still play games in their mid 60s, too. I remember a kid mocking my dad for gaming at 40 when I was a kid. I imagine that guy is doing the same thing now.

Ah, the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia.

A better educated and less impoverished population is something, too.

I’ll pay for college for a large number of people and pay a lawyer to defend my action as not “giving it away.”

Unless you’re putting your animal in shows, why tf would anyone care about having a pure breed? Get a mutt that resembles what you want, and you should be good to go (and have a healthier animal).

I miss OMD: Unchained. 😔

Safety isn’t a matter of taste. After a certain threshold maybe, but prior to that, it’s a matter of responsibility (and sometimes legal liability).

Did he though? Nobody saying nothing is a double negative.

Depression and anxiety greatly hindered my educational goals, so I only have an associates degree in accounting. However, the woman I married has a master’s degree in computer science and a good, well-paying job. Our first child had medical issues requiring full-time care for several years, so I am now a stay-at-home dad to two kids, guiding them through homeschool.

That about sums it up, yeah. My beliefs aren’t radical, but my thoughts on the means that should be taken to realize them are becoming more radical.

“Jellyfin and chill” sounds kinky

This just in: primary caregiver more likely to remember medical details! I’m a stay-at-home dad, and I have much greater knowledge about my kids’ medical history.

My family’s was “beats a sharp stick in the eye.”

I don’t summon real people unless I’m truly desperate, but I absolutely use what the game has given me. I don’t like to repeatedly have my ass handed to me, and while I could “git gud” (and would have done so in my teens and 20s), I’d rather enjoy my limited play time.

My wife’s uncle brought out some homemade dynamite. I wasn’t getting anywhere near it, but that shit rocked the house from across the field.

My area has been under a heat advisory for most of the last week. If I ran, I would do so on a treadmill.
