I'm only alive because successfully killing myself is hard. Bernadette, she/her, smash bros addict, dog person, work addict, ruined beyond repair, stuck in the past. I will defend Amazon and Nintendo like they're the parents I never had. They did, and will do, nothing wrong, ever.

    What are the worst / most unique names you've ever personally encountered?

    Jump

  • I don't understand why anyone would keep a name they hate. Like so much weight was lifted from my heart when I legally changed my name from a stupid ugly mishmash of syllables.

  • Which celebrity were you sure had already passed away but has not?

    Jump

  • Lionel Richie and anyone who was bald or over 30 when I was less than 10. Like Steve Ballmer

  • What is this reality? As comprehensively as you can, in about 40 words or less.

    Jump

  • The reason why nothing matters.

  • What's the worst case of gaslighting you've seen?

    Jump

  • My whole life tbh, I was treated horrible and everyone just basically gaslit me into believing I Just Don't Like random things especially schoolwork and cleaning.

    Yeah bitch I really Don't Like schoolwork so much I do homework on the way home. I'm so eager to do something I Don't Like™™™™™. Yeah I Don't Like cleaning either, that's why I do chores as early as possible so they're done because I don't like cleaning.

    Surely it's not because I was an overworked kid who was so drained I couldn't focus on homework at home where Happy Happy Family antagonize me and bully me. Surely I don't clean as soon as possible because if I don't do it now I won't have time to do it later and it'll pile up for next week. And not because I would rather fucking relax on days off instead of keeping myself awake to do chores at the very end of the day when I'm ready to just sleep. Fuck childhood

  • Great question. I've been converting fonts to base 64 and having huge blocks of keyspam in my stylesheet

  • Is it worth buying a "renewed" laptop on Amazon?

    Jump

  • Check open box prices on ebay. Open box means the product was opened or used for a trivial amount of time, so practically new. Bought a $3000 surface laptop studio for $1200

  • What ways/methods have you used to memorize passwords?

    Jump

  • They're all the same-ish.

    Let's say my password is Token, but spelled like t0k3|

    I would attach something related to the site on it, so if the site is lemmy for example, the password would be like

    t0k3|Addictedtosurfing

    If the site is Amazon something like

    t0k3|Thanksformyfavoritejob

    I called it "lock and key" style and I'd change the beginning part, the "lock", once a year.

    So next year it'll be ef|=027Addictedtosurfing

    These are examples lol

  • OceanGate expedition

  • How much do you pay for your phone plan, what do you get in return and in which country?

    Jump

  • Bruh what all that for 10? I'm paying almost 6 times that amount 🤯🤯🤯

  • How much do you pay for your phone plan, what do you get in return and in which country?

  • Unlimited data, calling, text. $60 including tax with google fi. United States

  • Make android kinda dumb

  • You probably could use an app hider and hide play store and browser after downloading apps. Download some non-predatory games, buy no-ads on them, remove all payment information, maybe download some educational apps as well. I heavily recommend the Offline Games app, it's a collection of mobile games that aren't scummy.

    Honestly I think not being able to go online might be beneficial for the kid until they're 16+. Spend time with your child so they won't immerse themselves in social media for their missing human connection.

  • Do you think kids should be prohibited from using social media? If yes, how should it be done? If no, why?

    Jump

  • I think kids using regular social media is a result of there being no more sites for kids.

    When I was a terminally online unloved kid told to go away whenever I breathed in my family's presence, I wasn't browsing Facebook and Twitter. I was playing on KOL, GirlSense, Nicktropolis, and games I pirated. I was creative so I also pirated art, movie, and game making software and sunk hours into hobbies. Back on the internet, I'd also play flash games and pirate TV shows and movies.

    The sites we have today are aimed at toddlers. Sites for teens are just gone now. But does it even matter? Teenagers are treated like they're 18 the minute they're 13. It's shameful to like cartoons and videos games at 13. It's shameful to not have a job and live alone at 13. You're supposed to grind anti aging care, have a job, speedrun school, have children, have a car, and be rich at that time. Teens bully other teens for being teens. Society is ruined beyond repair. Banning children from using the internet will only breed more tech savvy minors who will still use the internet. It's way too late.

  • Fellow Americans, which family member are you not looking forward to seeing for Thanksgiving that you know will bring up politics?

    Jump

  • All of them. They are literally neonazis but with black and white switched. They would say "black lives matter" while beating up a black Jewish person. I hate my family.

  • Yeah. Threw a little boy, a plumber, and a dog under the front of a boat. Then I said "allow me to demonstrate" because I'm a professor.

  • If you're right through manipulation (propaganda, marketing, etc), are you really right?

    Jump

  • Hitler got many people to believe that murder is right when it's done to specific people. Did that make it right? Of course not.

  • How do lonely people find friends/ how did you find friends?

    Jump

  • Work. But I feel like they don't deserve me, they deserve someone better. I hate being lonely but I also hate wasting people's time.

  • What's the longest amount of time you spent trying to find something?

    Jump

  • Honestly it took 21 years to find a reason to live.

    However it also took 22 years to find a name I actually liked.

  • What was your "one that got away" and where are they now?

  • "if you can pronounce Tchaikovsky, Michaelangelo, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, then you can pronounce Preightynleigh-McKhanzlynn"

  • Having a slavery tradition name feels like stolen valor anyway like that wasn't my story to tell why am I named like it is. I might as well larp as a Palestinian who survived a bombing, for attention. It's horrible. Yet it's forced on me.
