Outer Wilds

Idk why but I’ve always legit found this guy sexy. Am I broken?

…sooo I’m a decently attractive (child-free) lady that’s historically been this way with my partners (granted, not every day. Basically all of my relationships have been long-term, so y’know, sometimes the mood just isn’t there).

This is the first time I’ve heard of the mom fetish, and it also made me feel weird lol. But also made me reflect on why I’ve always kinda been that way, and wonder if this is maybe subconsciously the reason?

Turns out, the answer is a solid “no” lol.

I definitely had an upbringing that conditioned me to be the type of person that serves others. And so as I grew up, I guess that turned into a way that I show interest/love.

So maybe it was a similar thing for your girl? Ooooor maybe she was REALLY into feeling like a mom lol. The world may never know.

Hard disagree.

I get why people insist on comparing bad things to other things to gauge the level of bad - especially when we’re talking about America. I say this as an American who was also spoon-fed the bullshit that America is “the greatest country in the world”.

But I feel like the sentiment of “America is such a shitshow, we should focus on that and nothing else” is doing us all (regular people) a disservice, and creates something of a red herring.

Instead of having a single spotlight on America, maybe we should be looking at the shit state of an overwhelmingly majority of the world and ask ourselves why the fuck shit is as bad as it is.

How (and why???) does horrible/evil shit continuously prevail? Throughout all of human history, we as a species tend to get caught up in prejudice and useless (read: fucking stupid) hate.

At least to me, this feels like a pattern. Every generation of humans have a majority fall into the same dumbass bullshit (although the execution and severity of it varies).

Fuck America. From its shitty-ass origins all the way to its shitty-ass current state. But also fuck most other countries for a lit of the same shit.

There’s this saying that people that should be in power are typically the ones that really don’t want it, and therefore don’t pursue it and/or reject it. This is the root cause of the problem. The ones that want power badly enough to be in politics (or in some cases resort to violence to seize it) tend to be the worst kinds of people. And they are the ones running the world.

I lost my dad (whom I was very close with) at 15, and my mom made my life extremely hard and confusing after that… I think I’d be mostly happy at how seemingly well-adjusted i am.

I’m objectively well-off, but turns out i care far more about non-financial things.

Obey the walrus

Idk if you’ve seen Euphoria, but that’s the show that really made me like her as an actress. Didn’t think much of her before.

I’ve always preferred “suspish”

This is a fantastic idea. I really love the decentralization of Lemmy, but I do feel the side effects of having many copies of the same subject on different instances.

And to your point, I’d love for niche communities to have a larger audience. I need somewhere to post and read about project zomboid.

Growing up, I spent every Sunday going to a church my grandpa established, and afterwards my entire family would go over to my grandparent’s house for lunch. We would usually be there for hours, so many Sundays, my cousins and I would play gladiator outside in the backyard. We’d make weapons and armor out of whatever we could find, and just have a battle in the backyard. We did this from the time that we were little kids and all the way through my time in high school.

In my early college years, I had mentioned to my boyfriend (who i had been with since high school) that I really missed this tradition with my cousins.

He bought me this cute little gladiator doll to hang up on my car’s rearview mirror as a memento of those special times. No longer have that boyfriend, but I still have that little doll.

I think they’re actually referring to Trump in this situation

They look like a bunch’a gas station hot dog weenies that have been sitting in the warmer for too long.

I’m really struggling to imagine this.

Well done

This sounds so efficient and amazing. I’m currently trying to move to a more self-sufficient lifestyle, and a community like this is very appealing, and makes so much sense. Where is ‘home’ for you?

Wait, it seems like we don’t want to follow the rule of 3.

I think it’s rather fitting Edit: not a frump fan, nor am I a Christian. Was being facetious.

Nah, the face plant years are where you just skip the hand and directly slam your face into the nearest surface because of the off-the-charts level of absurdity you’re hearing. More fitting for the current state of things.

I’m sure you didn’t think so at the time, but that’s hilarious
