  • Maybe some of us will, but not all of us. I'm already better at troubleshooting things than my gen z coworkers because they never had to go through the things that we had to go through to make things work, or at least they don't know how to google things to find solutions to things like I do.

    Possibly really dumb question: can you do multiplayer on pirated games?

    My buddy wants to play Baldur's Gate 3 but I don't feel like paying for it.

    This weekend, my wife challenged me to see how long I could go without mentioning Taylor Swift, and I tried to make her regret it

    I recently became a Swiftie, and I'm sure like a lot of other Swifties, I won't shut the fuck up about her. She (and her music) truly lives rent free in my head. So, understandably, my wife is a little annoyed. So on Friday night, she started a timer and told me she wanted to see how long I could go without mentioning her. It started out annoying because I kept thinking of things that I wanted to say, like references to her lyrics, but I couldn't. For example:

    • Her 9 year old cousin started off a sentence with "I, I, I" as if she didn't know how to continue her sentence and my mind went "see how this is gonna go"
    • Later, her cousin said she wanted to "cry in the back of the car" because the baseball team we were watching lost, and my mind started singing the lyrics to both Cruel Summer and Getaway Car
    • My wife said something about how in her "wildest dreams" she wouldn't imagine something happening
    • Later, she said "we aren't out of the woods yet" in terms of it not raining

    In songs sung in English, a word ending with "t" followed by "you" sometimes makes the "you" sound like "chew". Does this happen in other languages with different words/sounds?

    For example, if a lyric contains "that you", it ends up like "thatchoo". One example of this I can think of is in Karma by Taylor Swift (I know, I know, but it's one of the most popular songs I listen to). The line where she sings "Karma's a relaxing thought/Aren't you envious that for you it's not?" sounds like "arentchoo". It doesn't happen every time but it seems to happen unless you're consciously making an effort to not make that sound. An example of this is in Love Story where she sings "That you were Romeo/You were throwing pebbles", and it sounds like if you were just talking to someone and said "that" and "you" separately.

    I'm just wondering if this happens in other languages with different combinations of sounds? It probably happens with other sound combinations in English too, but this is the easiest example to think of.

  • I have no idea how many US service members there are in the US but it's a non issue for two reasons. One, the US population far outnumbers them and two, I bet when the fighting starts there would be a lot of desertions because it would mean killing their friends, family and fellow countrymen.

    Pessimistic defeatist attitude won't get us anywhere.

    Edit: oh and before I became a socialist my friend who is in the military (and has been for a while) reminded me how effective guerrilla warfare is. See: Vietnam and Korea.

  • Please read the book Socialist Reconstruction that was put out by the Party for Socialism and Labor. The sentence that you have starting with "Marxism" is not factual and completely debunked by not only the chapter on farming, but any of the chapters that touch on climate change at all.

  • Every single person who is fully capable of rational thought knows that this is actually murder. So is a full or near term abortion. Only idiotic conservatives think that stopping a fetus that would be nonviable on its own from continuing to grow is murder.

  • Tattoos @lemmy.ml
    aloeha @lemmy.world

    Where to get help with a tattoo idea?

    I have an idea for a tattoo I'd like to get for my cat when she goes to the rainbow bridge but I'm not sure how to best execute it. I have two tattoos but both of them are simple symbols so this is one is going to be more involved. I would just like to have the idea more formulated before finding the right artist.

  • Not sure about transgender posts, but the communist posts are probably because other platforms are owned by huge corporations, and huge corporations generally don't like communism. Lemmy can never be bought by a huge corporation (at least not entirely).

    If my home instance defederated from another, can I still post to the other instance? What about posting to an instance which has been defederated from my home instance?

    Let's use lemmygrad.ml as an example. My home instance is lemmy.world, which I see has defederated from lemmygrad.ml. If I post to a community on lemmygrad.ml, will everyone be able to see it?

    What if the opposite is true? What if lemmygrad.ml is the one who defederated from lemmy.world, and not the other way around as in the above example?

    I'm just a little confused by how federation works. I know that I won't see lemmygrad.ml posts on my All feed due to defederation, regardless of who defederates with whom.

    I really hate livng in a world run by neurotypicals

    We are normally good at masking bc its expected of us but I am so tired of it. I'm so tired of having to pretend like I'm someone I'm not.

    Then when we mess up and let our guard down or make a mistake and accidentally show people we are ND, we get dogpiled or yelled at. It sucks especially bc we sometimes don't understand social mores, so even when we are confident that we are acting the way NTs expect us to, we can end up wrong and still get yelled at.

    It's awful bc we are never gonna create a more equitable society if we can't have these types of conversations with NTs. We have to show them that bring ND isn't an insult, but that's when we get yelled at or made fun of.

    Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) is expected to chart all 22 of its songs on the Billboard Hot 100 next week. It would become the 6th album by Taylor Swift to do so!

    Psychedelics @lemmy.ca
    aloeha @lemmy.world

    Are there any pscyedelics that are safe to take on SSRIs?

    I'm looking to try a psychedelic but most seem at best to have blunted effects while on SSRIs or at worst be dangerous to take at the same time. It looks like ketamine might be relatively safe, but I'm looking for others that might be safe too.
