Wholesome@reddthat.com•Would you rather take a cross country road trip or fly first class? You're going somewhere brilliant either wayEnglish
31·14 days agoIf it’s a domestic destination, I have plenty of time, and I have one or two other people I like to split the driving with me, I’ll take the road trip.
Otherwise I’ll fly first class.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What belongs to who when it comes to wealthy families?English
181·25 days agoSpitballing here but I suspect a lot of things are owned by a family trust instead of specific people.

cats@lemmy.world•Home sick. Val is keeping me cozy.English
8·27 days agoSick humans tend to be warmer than usual, and cats love sitting on warm things that don’t move much.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•There are worse tattoos, can I think of one? No...English
2·27 days agoYep. I’m not the type to get tattoos but if I was I could do a whooooole lot worse than visiting the tattoo artist who did this one.

Apple@lemmy.zip•Foldable iPhone Production Stalls Amid Hinge IssuesEnglish
1·28 days agoThe one and only upside I can see to a foldable phone is that it might finally be able to thwart my shitty superpower of always being able to accidentally unlock my phone in my pocket and pocket dial people or pocket open apps or pocket close browser tabs.

Television@piefed.social•Kit Harington gets candid on still feeling 'very defensive' over Game of Thrones season 8English
26·29 days agoIn no particular order, I blame the GoT writers, showrunners, producers, and GRRM.
The cast and other crew hold no culpability whatsoever in the situation.
And yeah I can understand being sore at being the subject of a million memes about “Ah dun wunnit, she’s mah kween”
But it’s not Kit’s fault that GRRM couldn’t keep up the pace with the source material, or that the producers tried shoe-horning ten or twelve episodes of plot points into a final season of six episodes.
superduperpirate@lemmy.worldtoMental Health@lemmy.world•What’s a phrase or quote that helps you keep going?English
12·1 month agoThe horrors persist, but so do I.
Also, Al Swearingen had a relevant line in Deadwood
Pain or damage don’t end the world. Or despair, or fucking beatings. The world ends when you’re dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man, and give some back.
Clearly this isn’t the healthiest way of coping with things, but sometimes I’m not in the right frame of mind to process stuff optimally, and so I think of lines like this one.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't people complain about Gary Stus?English
8·1 month agoI don’t think Mary Sue or Gary Stu characters are intrinsically bad. Provided that the work is honest about it.
I prefer characters who have realistic strengths and weaknesses, and who face credible tests in the plot, which they aren’t guaranteed to pass. I like characters who fail from time to time.
I do sometimes want some escapism and such, so I’m glad Mary Sue and Gary Stu types still exist.

Television@piefed.social•Got Netflix, other than the big hitters like stranger things what should I watch?English
3·2 months agoCheck out the first season of Killing Eve. Head writer left after S1 so reviews of the other three seasons are decidedly mixed.
I thoroughly enjoyed the live action Cowboy Bebop.

When I see people posting stuff I don’t want to see but can’t otherwise easily filter (based off link domain or keyword in post title or community name), I will downvote. Once I see a user account with enough net downvotes, that’s a cue for me to consider blocking them.
This works sorta well for me, but someone else’s experience may vary.

Television@piefed.social•What are you watching and what do you recommend this week?English
2·2 months agoI’ve been watching Full Swing S3 on Netflix, and just started the first episode of S4.
Yes, most of the golfers depicted are obnoxious asses who live a life of wealth and are a bit out of touch with the average jane & joe. I don’t think I’d want to have a coffee or a beer with most of them.
I still find the show fascinating for the same reasons that I find the F1: drive to survive and Break point series fascinating, and for the same reason I enjoy shows that depict how products are manufactured.
I like seeing stuff that doesn’t get aired during a tournament on tv. I like seeing stuff that isn’t just social media soundbites.

Discord@lemmy.world•i tried register account require phone number, i register with my email, why ask for phone ?English
2·2 months agoI guess it’s a good thing my account is old enough that I didn’t have to provide a phone number?
