It depends really. If I lived somewhere where natural disasters were a common occurrence then I probably would. Luckily I live in the UK which, while not great in other ways, has a temperate climate. That said, if the south gets too much warmer then I am tempted to move to Scotland. I don’t cope well in temperatures above 19 Celsius. It would be one of several reasons though, not the overriding factor.
We have social housing in the UK which is rent capped and it gives people an element of stability. It can work well
As far as I’m concerned I’m not a grown up until I have a washing machine and dishwasher of my own.
How would you react if someone prints Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross with bloody hands and feet onto your favourite beer. With a face of pure agony and some letters addressing charity?
That sounds quite metal tbh for beer. I would give it a go.
Food and drink are incredibly political in general, this is just one aspect of it.
That seems so unnecessary. Why do they want to interfere with screen density??
Not sure if you’ve seen the various Reddit cross posting bots but the threads they post aren’t very active. I think people see that it’s a bot and switch off.
By the nature of the community though there will obviously be questions on here that have been asked on other platforms. I think it’s mainly about trying to keep this place active and let it develop its own vibe (for lack of a better word)
That was just a typo. Beehaw has advertised itself as being a largely positive, safe online space. People who sign up for it would generally be considered to want that same ethos.
It’s not ideal at the moment but until the moderation tools improve it’s the best way forward if they want to stick to their ethos. I enjoy Beehaw and the admin do seem like they want to refererate when it’s possible to.
I’m on both Beehaw and Lemmy.world so I between the two I can interact with everything I would want to see.
It’s that new colony optimism
I know you can use glass jars but they’re something I would have to get anyway and ideally I would want something portable so I can take it to work.
Vbulletin boards and general forum sites before the likes of Facebook and Reddit got big. Made a lot of friends on there.
Neopets was great as well. Loved the minigames.
Clueless. It’s one of the few films I can actually sit and watch all the way through at home. Witty, campy 90s fun. The fact it’s actually an adaptation of Emma by Jane Austen is the icing on the cake.
Things that help me:
Having a routine- every Sunday I walk into town and get a nice coffee/cake and read for a while and just be around people. If I stay inside for too long I will start to self isolate.
Hobby- I go to a couple of choirs during the week. It helps me get out of the house and it’s an activity that stops me dwelling on things. You’re usually too busy focusing on the music to think of anything else. Singing also helps you regulate your breathing which is supposed to help with relaxation and sleeping.
Spend time in or around nature, even if that’s a pet. Being around green space can help ground you. Being around animals can be a massive boost. Go to the park with a book and spot dogs.
Medication - this has helped me more than anything but isn’t for everyone. I also had a few rounds of therapy but didn’t get loads out of it, but it may well work for you.
Thanks for asking OP, I had no idea either.
I know on Tumblr it means ‘if you laugh you have to reblog’, but judging from the posts on here I didn’t think it was the same
I agree. Reading is a good way of acquiring both specifically. Read things together and then talk about it to make them think.
Also some schools do critical thinking/philosophy courses.
I would recommend against doing this because you will end up feeling awful. We poo for a reason. Please be careful.
That said, immodium and low strength codeine both bung you up- depending on where you live you may be able to get both from a pharmacy.
I love the smushing! Find it so hard to learn though
I was going to say that I wish there was a decentralised way of sending messages… And then I remembered text messaging is a thing.
Incredible how quickly these things become embedded in everyday life
I find Jerboa times out quite a lot, never quite sure if my posts go through
I love the rain and cloudiness! It’s peaceful (flash flooding aside, that can suck depending on where you live)
