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 is your experience with cherophobia?

  • I ask because there's no way it's just a phobia. Every single time anything goes well something bad happens to balance it out. Yesterday afternoon I went for a ride in the nice weather but it turned out my scooter wasn't plugged in fully so I only had 50% plus the tires were flat so the mileage was awful. Couldn't ride for as long as I wanted. Went to the gym and reached my goals and also bought some fast food in the same day despite these bad omens and some of the food leaked in my bag on the way home onto my gym clothes then my phone holder randomly broke so I'll need a new one. Also my scooter tires were flat so I had to inflate them which took a long time and almost made me late to work. The valve is hard to unscrew and I got a blister on my thumb that hurts like hell. Also my back hurts horribly and it's interfering with my job alongside that stupid blister. Everything good comes with something at least 1.5x worse. My boyfriend is annoyed at how overprotective and overbearing I am of him, but every time I find someone I actually enjoy being around, they die. I can't take it anymore.

  • Lemmy, what is your "I'm calling it now" prediction for the next 10 years?

  • The attacks on transgender people will spread to the rest of the LGBTQ community, then the disabled, then immigrants, then Jewish people, and so on. Because first they came for the transgender people and we didn't speak out.

    Fediverse will be regulated by law or some nonsense, making it exactly like the centralized platforms.

    President Elon Musk serves half of his third term as permanent president of the United States. All public transit and bike lanes are abolished in favor of cars, and many people go broke after losing their jobs after being unable to afford to make it to work. Inflation is at an all time high with everyone being nostalgic about today's prices where everything is still affordable. He also makes it illegal to be transgender. We go back to democracy when some rando who deliberately changed their name to a Mario character assassinates Musk.

    The next smash cuts a character everyone loves but also has the three house leaders.

    The International Brotherhood of Teamsters conveniently forgot about Amazon.

    Reddit shuts down or lives on as a husk like 𝕏. Or even better, Elon buys reddit, calls it 𝕏 Communities and throws out brand materials like "subreddit" in favor of generic "community". Place becomes 𝕏 Draw and is only powered by AI image generators. Each pixel costs one dogecoin and users generate ai images at the resolution of the pixels they own.

    Nintendo's next console is a Switch 3.

    Everyone has a folding phone now.

  • Which apps do you allow to give you notifications?

    Jump

  • All that aren't excessive. I'll take those Taco Bell and Starbucks ads every now and then no problem

  • What if we called instances providers?

    Jump

  • I think instance is okay as a term, but defining it as a provider could be helpful. I don't think the fediverse is that complicated anyway, it could be summarized in a paragraph for a baby

  • Imagine spending a significant portion of your paycheck on being able to make it to work when you could just spend half a week's worth at a sports or electronics store once every few years. So free.

  • Apartment. Houses feel like prison cells especially in desolate barren primitive wastelands the suburbs where everything requires a car or at least an hour of travel. Anyone with nothing to lose can break into your house and all you can do is make it too much effort. All your neighbors are thieves and will steal your mail, packages, and food orders. They'll also not care if you had an intruder, and they'll care less about how their smoke affects you. Just wear a gas mask if you don't like smoke. It's their property so you'll just need to get over it. Happy and cozy! Let's hope your work schedule doesn't change so you don't need to choose between taking out trash and being able to sleep before work. And definitely get some insurance to replace your replaceable belongings when a high schooler's still-burning joint tossed on your outdated status symbol burns your house and everything in it. Spend every day with your pets and children like it's your last. It's the current year, live like it. You don't need a glorified horse drawn carriage and a happy cozy cottage in the woods. There's no need to maintain a patch of grass to show off you don't need to farm on it. There's no need to live completely alone where no one can help if you're in need. It's unnecessary. If you can't live in a city the problem is you. Go buy an island if you need to live so primitively.

  • How can I assure myself that I can find a partner despite being chronically ill and disabled?

    Jump

  • I don't have a real answer and I'm wired af right now so this comment is probably unhinged gibberish anyway but despite being physically emotionally and mentally stunted, having horrible brain fog and confusion, and a lot of other issues I'd assume no one would love me for I managed to find someone without those issues who likes me for who I am and really it's just about who you are as there's only one of you and if you're pretty awesome then any obstacle your disability poses is worth taking on, and if someone loves you then your disability wouldn't even matter all that matters is tuts you're your truest you and you're happy.

  • What's a sign that someone's Slightly NOT majorly, not like a whole level above. Just slightly more financially successful than you.

  • They might also prioritize technology over Gildan garments with expensive words on them. Seriously everyone thought I was ultra super rich with my Surface Headphones and Fire Emblem Fates Limited Edition New Nintendo 3DS XL but I wasn't, I just didn't spend that money on two pairs of sneakers with a basketball man's silhouette on them.
