  • "Drugs" is a pretty wide net, and yeah most of them would make it more difficult. Someone who isn't me once told me that psychedelics make it a lot easier to follow really abstract thought, and that comes in handy when trying to imagine theoretical geometries our brains and other sensory equipment didn't evolve to comprehend

  • be me. Business trip to Texas fml

    get some shitty subcompact rental car

    try to drive to some state park on weekend

    the location? About 3 hours driving away

    the cell tower reception? KEKW

    the road? On a 20 foot raised ridge for some texan fucking reason

    the wind? 42069 mph, perpendicular to the road

    literally turning the steering wheel against the wind to maintain driving straight

    literally feel like I'm going to get blown off the road and die

    in Texas so actually do want to die

    wish I was in a big truck for the first time in my life

    after hours of white knuckle driving finally get there

    Amarillo texas, the biggest pile of shit I've ever seen in my life

    literally. Active mountain of cow shit being farmed and sold as fertilizer right next to the town

    Texas. Not even once.

  • Both her and her paw are doing well! The only lasting damage is to her trust in me for making her take the antibiotics, lol. Here she is pouting at me because there were pills in her last treat

  • this is my girl at the vet. She's got an infection on her right front paw. She's really hoping to hide it from the doctor

  • No no, I think there's a misunderstanding here. If you can accurately describe to me what an n-brane is or have ever used terms like "deformation in the local topology", I assume you've done SIGNIFICANTLY more psychedelics than most people. I've never had easier access to psychedelics in my life than when I spent most of my time near the math buildings at uni.

  • I ugly laughed at Guess-tephan :) thankyou for that

  • I'd bet it's also a double entendre for something that roughly means "bad guys". Assuming combattre probably has the same root as combat, the post has a cadence like "fight the transphobes with the tits!"

    I also don't know French but guessing at it seemed fun

  • I feel like I'm being admonished by a schoolteacher and honestly I probably deserve it. You're probably right but I'm grumpy about it and need to re-read this later when I'm less grumpy about it

  • Ehh. We've had the divisiveness and vitriol that comes from leftist infighting for at least as long as I've been here. That being said, I myself came here from reddit when they banned 3rd party reader apps so idk if lemmy was some pre-corpo internet paradise before I got here. The only thing I really notice when waves of people leave reddit is that we get a handful of conservatives on lemmy when that happens, which is a magical time when all of the disparate leftists on the platform come together to cyberbully the conservatives off of lemmy.

  • Is Norway tree law brutal?

  • Nobody is happy when you call them out for marginalizing people they view as inferior. I get the same reaction when call out family members being blatantly racist at family gatherings. I don't care about the reactions of people who choose to engage only with my tone, they're not here to interact with me or my opinions in a meaningful way. Last, I don't believe I overreacted at all. I called out shitty alienating behaviour in response to a meme that implies an outgroup community is disgusting or inferior based on their operating system choice. As I see it the tone of the meme was significantly more insulting than the tone of my response.

  • Sure, that's a valid position to have. Your position only relates to the OP meme in the loosest possible sense; the meme presents WSL users as inferior objects of disgust, which is clearly distinct from a claim that WSL is not the right starter distro for most people. As I see it you're effectively whitewashing an elitist talking point by pretending it's about helping new users, or you just didn't notice the elitism because you are not part of the targeted out-group.

  • I made a comment about the gatekeeping attitude of the community and you responded to me with a critique of WSL. The point I made sailed entirely over your head, hence the whoosh.

  • I'm glad you found a laugh and a moment of lightness while you're struggling, and I hope the world becomes a kinder place for you as soon as possible. This is still a joke where the punchline is "windows user (ie, outgroup) disgusting", and I hope you can understand why it's bad to put that kind of energy out in the world then pretend it's a joke.

  • It's not funny, it's gatekeeping.

  • Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooosh

  • Linux community: why don't more people use Linux? Also Linux community: LOL LOOK AT THESE STUPID FUCKERS TRYING LINUX WRONG, LETS ALL GO SHIT ON THEM

    goddamn do yall deserve eachother and your 0.01% OS share or whatever meaningless percentage of the OS market you represent.

  • The only way I can handle it is by treating myself as two people. The adult in me that grew up and the obstinate 17yrold in a frayed dead kennedys shirt with general disdain for any and all forms of authority. I bribe him with some kind of reward and if he says no or tries to get around it I get to take control and win in our battle of wills. I have to keep the shithead happy enough that he doesn't riot and burn the place down, but ultimately the adult runs the show. Treating my bad habits as a separate person who is my rival works well for me. It is kinda funny that I'm essentially "bread and circus"ing myself

  • Normally I'd have your back with the translation but I can't understand the cockney accent OP is speaking with
