Those are precisely why I like BlueSky. I don’t know if this was normal for twitter or what, but I learned you can search for a hashtag of your kinks (exp. #bigboobs) and you can see porn from people that have posted pics or posts about it. You can also hide other tags from ever showing up in the results, which lets you finetune what you’re looking for. I know the search works relatively the same as twitter with respect to hashtags, but was porn on twitter this whole time?
These are apparently called “Desire Paths”
I had setup a bluesky account back when they opened it up however long ago, didn’t touch it much, then just randomly decided to start using it a little bit before the election because Lemmy felt like it was running dry. It definitely seems to be popping now, though I don’t understand much why people waited so long to leave X. X seems like it’s been a shithole for awhile, did people not see the writing on the wall this whole time, or did the right-wing BS reach a critical mass after the election?
I think it happens all over and sometimes it really kind of depends on how long your argument is and the general impression people get from the first part of it. If you’re making a devil’s advocate argument in the first part, but then the twist comes later on, people are going to think your first devil’s advocate argument is the gist of it and downvote you based on that alone without getting into the nitty gritty. If people can form a knee-jerk reaction within the first few seconds of reading your post, they will, nuance gets lost.
That was one of the biggest things that took me out of that movie. They stage this huge operation at the Gotham Stock Exchange or wherever, everybody knows this giant crime is happening there, but woops, looks like Bruce Wayne has been magically bankrupted, there’s nothing we can do about it. It just took me out of it thinking, “I don’t think you can just bankrupt a billionaire like that.”
You just got to wear them down enough, break their willpower. They can learn to love in time.
If a girl doesn’t like you, but you just keep pursuing her, everything will eventually work out and you’ll be happy together.
Our boss just took us out to lunch and gave us four hours off the rest of the day to go out and vote, which is probably the most encouragement to vote I think I’ve ever gotten from any boss before. I’m sure I was entitled to it this whole time, but it’s never been encouraged like this before with this boss at any of my other workplaces, if anything, previous bosses probably would’ve talked shit if I said that’s what I wanted to do with my time.
Fuck the Russians, but I can’t imagine how terrifying that must be. I’m sure they make some sort of identifying sound when they’re flying around and that must be the most terrifying sound you ever hear, not a plane or a bomb blowing up, but the whirr of a small drone flying around.
Because it’s considered “lewd” and “indecent” when I do it and I’m not allowed within 500 yards of schools anymore.
I’ve actually been “maintaining” my Dad’s GOG account since he died some years ago. Anytime there’s a giveaway I log into both our accounts and download, one for me, one for him. No point to it really, just out of remembrance, though I’ll probably hand it off to one of my kids at some point.
I hope they all make a Disco Elysium “sequel”, that was such an awesome game, it should spawn its own genre of gaming.
Ahh, a game dedicated to being a stealth archer, fuck yeah, I’m in.
When you realize brains have named everything they know that exists, and even things that don’t exist.
It helps with my lower back pain, it feels like I’m just floating afterwards, like my spine has liquified. Orgasms in general just help make the pain go away, sex is better, but I’ll take what I can get.
If anything, society collapses and the very wealthy carve out fiefdoms for themselves and re-create medieval feudalism. They tell people they have a God-ordained to rule over the “small folk” and they continue on living like kings, albeit in a post-apocalyptic setting.
The PS5 in general has just felt like a nebulous console. I don’t know if it’s just me not being as connected to console gaming anymore or what, but there’s no PS5 games that are “must play” or anything that I’ve seen/read/heard hype about that has made me really interested. Partly there was the Covid years where it was apparently facing shortages and during that I just switched my mind off to the idea that I’d ever buy one. It’s been out for years now though, but nothing about it makes me care to move on from our PS4 that’s still chugging along.
He’s actually trapping people in, that’s why the Kool-Aid man has to burst through so many walls, he’s rescuing those people.
Yeap
I don’t recall feeling overly impressed with content on Mastodon, it’s just social media, but with a small userbase, I’m guessing more tech-saavy. I think what ultimately “wins” in the social media space is wherever “everybody” ends up going. Right now, Bluesky seems to have the momentum going for it as people are flocking to it in droves, but it’s hard to tell how sustainable it is long-term as the hype settles down. Right now everybody is excited and seems like they’re trying to make it a positive, creative, liberal space, but eventually trolls will start invading the space and it’ll be like every other social media site unless it’s somehow structured in a way as to avoid that.
