I actually just clicked the link in your first comment, and realized you were referring to the best Avatar and not the blue people avatar

I simply read "avatar font" and my mind immediately went to the "Papyrus" video... it lives rent-free in my head lol

Well I appreciate the research! Cause I didn't even know that was a font. I was honestly just sharing a somewhat relevant video, that somehow manages to crack me up; every single time. It's just so dumb and well produced, that it gets me every time lol

Papyrus!

We all know WD40 and any symbolism representing it, is a common tattoo for the vile "Propane Gang". The "Hank Hill's", as they're more commonly known

Explain please? I'm uncertain about the heart of where you're coming from

They got my mom like that... like literally a month before her retirement (25-something years working for them). Then HR offered her job back (a week later) because they had fucked up the paper trail, and knew it could come back on them

I advised her to lawyer-up, because it was an obvious wrongful termination/discrimination. But alas, she's too sweet for her own good and happily retired now

She babysat for extra income and funsies (because she loves kids and was bored) spends a LOT more time with her grand-babies, and just continued being her sweet self, without having to deal with the grind. She could've been better off, had they not fucked her over; but it just wasn't a priority for her to go through the rigamaro. I'll always respect her for it

But also... man, I wish she would've fucked those people up in court, just outta principle. I hope to be as strong in the real way, like her one day

Got you

JFK's sister was lobotomized

Edit: ignore my comment, I either misread the previous comment or it was edited

I'm assuming Epic as in the healthcare charting system

What are you on about? Anything but OP's question I guess, just going on tangents instead?

The article you linked is about corporate tax avoidance btw, which yes, absolutely effects everyone. Anything else you'd like to add to your ramblings?

Well that's a left-field response. He's not just employing friends and family, he's also employing loyalists who've garnered favors from him (because of their loyalty). And it isn't just a business, it's a government

I would employ my family if I could, but I sure as hell wouldn't choose them over qualified professionals, whether it's a business or a government. I'm sure as shit not gonna have someone with no financial expertise running my accounting, no matter how much I love them.

Don't make everything political and start stirring shit, we have enough of that right now

Not if you're using the back-facing camera (like flipping the phone around, or doing 'mirror selfies'). Given the angle of this photo though, it doesn't seem like that's the case

None of that, "I'll do it in a few minutes, I won't forget" nonsense. I absolutely will forget. I can set an alarm for 10 minutes, but then I'm doing something else already and I'll silence it, thinking "oh yeah, I almost forgot! I'll do that just as soon as I'm done doing..."

Nope. Bring groceries inside. Go pee. Unload groceries. Return bags to car. If I follow those steps, I'll remember lol

I've been written off as "absent-minded" (yet everyone seeks my advice for major life shit)

I feel this in my bones. My family has always labeled me as "aloof, absent-minded, head in the clouds"... and somehow always seem to forget that I'm the one that shows up or gets called when shit goes sideways

I've tried to accept that it's just an "endearing" label from them, and they don't actually believe I'm unreliable... because they still (individually) fall back on me whenever they need someone to come through. I'm an "aloof crisis hotline" I guess

Thank you; I'ma have to dig-in a little as to what html and markdown are, and how I can understand them better. I always feel like I'm missing some kind of "common knowledge" when it comes to the intermingling of internet/network/program-language. I'm no programmer either, but forever curious

Knowledge is power and it's fun to share!

I guess the exclamation point (!) is what tells lemmy to embed the link. I wonder if that works with non-image url's?

Edit: Huh... nifty. And that's where my knowledge hits a wall, cause I have no idea what's happening in the background, where one url can be embedded as an image, and the other shows up as a "'obj' box". I just don't understand enough to know what makes an "image" embedable

Huh, this is what I see

But when I click on the small "obj" box, I can see this image

Both of those embedded images, I saved to my phone and inserted using the Boost app. I wonder if I copy and embed your posted-image-link manually, will you also see just a "clickable 'obj' box"? Let's see...

Maybe it has something to do with the app loading it to an instance's "pictrs" first? That's way above my knowledge though

Edit: I see someone already helped you get it sorted out! Yay, we all learned something today

What does the "MAU" stat mean? "'Something' Active Users"?
