  • What are your top 5 favourite works of art?

    Jump

  • Laffy Taffy

    Jump

  • I mean .. Do any of the laffy taffy flavors taste like the real fruits?

  • What book, movie, etc. do you wish there was more of?

    Jump

  • Some of mine have been adapted from books, so I specified the media:

    Movie: Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Series

    TV: Under the Dome

    TV: Kim's Convenience

    TV: The OA

    TV: Ponies (maybe they renew for a second season 🤞🏼)

    Bonus- Shows that lasted a little too long:

    Orange is the New Black, Westworld

  • Get bent, Brenda

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure a lot of it was the specific manager I worked for. I was getting in trouble for the most ridiculous things.. they got mad at me for writing hey in emails instead of hello or hi, got mad at me when my teammates didn't do something correctly, got in trouble for working 7 minutes overtime by accident (then got in trouble for taking lunch between back-to-back meetings), spoke poorly about my teammates when they weren't around and would not communicate expectations until after I did something wrong. Additionally, I was told I'm too anxious when providing feedback on the things I was hired to provide feedback on, and there was no work/life balance. Maybe I've been blessed to have better jobs before this, but I didn't know a workplace could be so toxic

  • Get bent, Brenda

    Jump

  • This email reminds me of the literal month that I lasted at the Costco world headquarters..... Never again 🫩

  • What is a good Documentary/movie that would break conservative without demonizing them on a personal level?

    Jump

  • I would highly recommend Blue Bayou, it's about a Korean-American man in Louisiana raised by adoptive parents, but never got the proper paperwork to be considered a citizen. Amazing film, had me tearing up.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • ...just like his fugly mother

  • we need more users

    Jump

  • I think one huge missed opportunity is within sharing stuff from lemme... Other sites will allow you to share media, often with a banner or link back to the original content or source. For lemme I download the media and there's no branding or linkage that brings you back to the platform (at least not through the Boost app)

  • Is there anyway I can screw around with ICE? I need a new hobby I come from a long line of immigrants. If i send my home address and phone number will they actually come and deport me to choose a cntr

    Jump

  • The fear instilled in half these commenters really shows how effective this domestic terrorism from ICE really is (unfortunately)

    So much for "united we stand"...

  • How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More...

    Jump

  • A few things to consider in the world of marketing and advertising...

    When reviewing the number of views that an ad gets, there's no simple way to separate bot traffic from genuine impressions. This is due to privacy restrictions.

    Generally, the marketing team will post an ad... A few weeks go by and they report the number of impressions (views) the ad got to upper management.. upper management is impressed and continues to approve budgets to make more ads.

    Sometimes ads are about driving awareness and not necessarily making sales. If you're familiar with the new soda in the convenience store you're more likely to buy it because of the ad you saw about it last week.

    A good (even great) return on investment in sales is between 2-3%, meaning if you show your ad to 100 people and get two clicks on it, those are considered good statistics to continue to market your product.

  • What are some funny WiFi network names you've run into?

    Jump

  • ours is "flamingos for sale" 🦩

  • They relied on marijuana to get through the day. But then days felt impossible without it.

    Jump

  • Absolutely, I feel like I was still smart, inquisitive, mindful and all that.. but it felt like my ability to access that information and effectively communicate it out loud wasn't very easy. I would always forget the names of things in the middle of a sentence, I'd take longer to respond to questions at work.. stuff like that.

  • They relied on marijuana to get through the day. But then days felt impossible without it.

    Jump

  • This addiction is real, and incredibly difficult to kick. I lost a decade of my life convincing myself it wasn't that bad, basically being high whenever I was conscious and not working.

    Today I'm 110 days sober and the cravings are still there, but my mental capacity has also improved dramatically.

  • Manufacturer issues remote kill command to disable smart vacuum after engineer blocks it from collecting data — user revives it with custom hardware and Python scripts to run offline

    Jump

  • The thing is.. I like vacuuming my home when I'm away from home, and that's a lot harder to do manually...

  • Apparently JD Vance posted this bullshit on Bluesky today (10/18/2025).

    Jump

  • Kings get guillotines in our country 🇺🇸🖕🏼

  • Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions!

    Jump

  • Simpsons: Road Rage is my all-time favorite of any game on any console..

    So much so that I bought the game without having the console to even play it 🫣

  • BREAKING: Israeli authorities have beaten Greta Thunberg, made her kiss Zionist flag

    Jump

  • This type of conceded, complaisant attitude is why everything is as bad as it is. How about instead of being a keyboard warrior you make yourself useful? Maybe it's people like you who don't deserve this privilege of victim blaming for staying away from anything scary or worth fighting for. The fact you put a smiley face after the phrase "innocent woman being abused" would make anyone who is not a psychopath sick.

  • Urban design is my passion

    Jump

  • Psh.. tell that to the City of Seattle 🙄

  • What's one youve had?

  • Canada's Worst Driver....

    Honestly I'll watch anything hosted by Andrew Younghusband at this point
