I had the same problem when I was on lemmy.world. now I’m on this other instance dbzero and it’s mostly smooth except for sometimes things glitch so I turn off my VPN to troubleshoot and then it works for a while, especially some thumbnail pictures won’t load in the post with my VPN on, but lately I’ve been too lazy to toggle my VPN off, I usually just give up on posts when the photo won’t load.

Okay but $200,000 houses don’t exist anymore. Everything starts at half a million.

Because Weird Al exists, and to ensure no misunderstandings, when on the topic of artificial intelligence, I always write ai in lower case. Weird Al owns the uppercase A and the lower case L which otherwise would be indistinguishable from an uppercase i.

Not one of his best bops but still genius for calling out the bullshit of corporate nonsense lingo.

If property taxes are abolished it better be for EVERYBODY, not just for billionaires & corporations & private equity groups.

But all those years people kept saying even though he was fundamentally a really great guy, a man of the people, he was one of the worst Presidents we’ve ever had. (??)

Anyway I’m pretty sure $1,000 mortgage payments are a thing of the past.

Ah! So you’re telling me that wealthy people DO get taxed on the unrealized gains of the properties they own? Just like us normies do?

Possem, Audem, Dehibem

Your phrase is actually a mix of Latin and Portuguese, translating to “I can, praise to God, I got along well.”

Agent_nycto has a solution for that problem.

Maybe you should post this showerthought in the “fuck cars” community where more people might agree with your hot take.

Otherwise most of us know that cars are what you make of them. You can choose to walk a few miles a few times a week to run errands, even if you have the option to drive. This is how I live my life. I guess I live in what some people would call a “15 minute city” where everything we need is within walkable distance. So we’re all healthy fit & get fresh air & exercise every day simply by living here. I also have this automobile to drive me over 100 miles in 2 hours which is what I’m doing tonight which would be impossible for me to walk or run or bike that distance in 2 hours.

Ethanol also rots the internal works of your vehicle so vehicles will disintegrate and people will be forced to buy new vehicles in 2027+ which will all have mandatory big brother spyware.

As if those are the only two types of men in the world? If so, which one are you? Misogynistic? Or deaf?

The foods I eat are extremely healthy & don’t taste good to anyone but me. I’m not a Goddamn chef. I HATE COOKING! Go to a restaurant if you want a chef. The last boyfriend I had, his house was full of junk food and I had to cook him his own separate junk that I would never eat, and it compromised my own health. I put so much effort into taking care of myself, I don’t have any energy to take care of anybody else. I go to work & I go to the gym. Feed your own damn self. I’m busy & exhausted.

So maybe other people should change, not me. I’m at the pinnacle of health. Why should I lower my standards? Other people should raise their standards. Why do people want to eat junk & feel like shit? Why should I lower my standards to meet them down there? You expect everybody to feel like shit just because you do? If every individual person takes care of their health, the world will be full of healthy people feeling good & smokin hot attractive. Because that’s all attractiveness is. It’s being healthy from the inside.

I just need speech therapy!!

Well the hard part is I also have high standards in men. They have to be smokin hot & obsessed with health too. Haven’t found one of those who can tolerate my squeaky voice, my utter uselessness, because I also refuse to cook food for anyone. IMO every adult should be capable of feeding themselves. Pisses me off when men expect women to cook for them.

So this is how a fine lady can end up forever alone, and I’m fully aware of this corner I’ve painted myself into 🤣

I assure you it’s not. Every man who approaches me because they’re interested in what I look like, as soon as I start talking, they start looking for an exit from the conversation and they leave.

Well, there’s someone out there for everyone. I’m a woman with an admittedly annoying squeaky voice & frustrating cadence & stuttering due to trauma that will never heal (all why I prefer writing), but my body is smokin hot & fine as fuck because exercise & nutrition are my passion. So if there are men out there who would still love to keep me around to look at & touch & play with, with no expectations of me saying anything profound or satisfying or useful, I can keep my mouth shut just let me spend as much time exercising & working out & we’ll all be happily ever after.

Sure before modern civilized times when the water supply was filthy with human waste, that’s why everyone had to drink alcohol. Because they polluted their own water supply with shit. Glad science figured things out and got us back to drinking water again.

Wow, look at the contrast between Nevada and its neighboring states Utah & Idaho. Imagine being an alcoholic in Nevada then crossing the border to a soda pop state. “I’m cured!” 🤣
