Unless you’re a Bradford Pear. 🤮

There are a lot of popular inventions that were never meant to be. Cocaine used to be used as a local anesthesia. Rogaine was originally created in the 1950s to treat ulcers. Now it’s used for high blood pressure and hair loss.

I have no doubt there are many, many more.

Granted it’s been many years, but even when I had bar yo gay bars this was not a thing. And even if it were, I wouldn’t care. I just don’t want it (or boob cleavage) in the work place.

For the record, I want equality too. But, I don’t want either gender showing off cleavage of any kind at the office.

Thank your lord that isn’t a thing.

Yes, but there are still pedestrians and walls and lampposts and motorcycles on the ground. I would imagine accidents would be far more disastrous and dangerous than in 2D.

~Add in people in convertibles who aren’t wearing safety restraints (or a failure of said restraints) if/when the vehicle does a 180° flip (for any reason).~

Where do you get the btw version? I only see the regular version on their website. Is this some sort of members-only version? I’d love to give it a try.

At least not until February 2026.

DK over there being a true homie looking out for his guy like that.

Alcohol and drug use aside, I have changed a few things about myself and my routine that have helped me tremendously. Maybe they can help you, or someone else:

1. Cook for yourself. Find some simple recipes for wholesome meals (i.e. wholesome in the sense that it meets your nutritional requirements, and that you make it yourself most from scratch).
   • I tend to focus on lean meats, high protein, and green veggies.
2. Set aside one or two hours in your day for just yourself. Play video games, read a book, watch a movie, or take a walk. The idea is to scratch a personal itch you would otherwise deny yourself because of responsibilities or “lack of time”.
3. Naps. If you can, try to take a nap each day. Try to stay with 20-30 minutes, but recognize like any habit/hobby, it takes time to get it right.
   • I’ve gotten to the point where I’ll set a 30 minute timer and only actually nap for 20 minutes.
4. Meditation. I usually do this when I nap or go to sleep for the night. I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones that are in a headband (for sleeping), and I’ll cue up an hour long ASMR or guided sleep video. The guided sleep ones are real good because they teach you box breathing, and help keep your mind focused on yourself so it doesn’t wander into the things that keep you awake.
5. Develop a regular cleaning schedule. Not only will it keep your house clean and tidy, but it allows you to focus your energy into something productive and positive.
   • I use my Notes app to create my to-do lists, and check things off as they get done.
   • If I do something not on my list, I add it and immediately check it off; having a really long list checked off feels real good.
   • I don’t care if I get my list done in a day or week. It’ll get done.

CBD gummies for me, but yes, samsies. Cheers!

Doing the Lord’s work. 🙏 Amen.

A judge. Someone who is meant to uphold law and the constitution, has a problem separating her religion from the state.

The sad thing is, this is not a new problem. Worse: she might get her way.

Technically it is the top-level domain name for Mali.

I’m fairly certain that the Lemmy devs chose it because of their two favorite socialists/communists: Marx and Lenin. But I can’t find a reference to that right now.

a … ball of dog muscle

I am going to start referring to my dog this way. 🤣

I have to scowl or frown for my phone to recognize my face. Apparently I look too different when I’m smiling/happy. 🤷‍♂️

Interestingly, no one has any tiles after that one word.

Isn’t your house taking away places animals could live?

That’s a bad faith argument. People need a place to live. No one needs a loud exhaust.

Another example of Lemmy moaning about every thing all the damn time.

Get out of here with your victim-blaming straw man bullshit.

Good for you.

Who gives a shit about all the people and animals around you that don’t get a moment’s peace because you “lIkE ThE WaY a V8 sOuNdS.”

That’s all that matters, right?
