I just had to report something to the police that will probably end a very close friendship of mine, but it was something that was totally not okay and I had to do it. But I still feel like a piece of shit for it. Have you ever felt like this and how did you get through it?

Fml the sun’s about to come up and I still can’t fall asleep. Dear Brain, please shut up....

Going back to the Old Ways, but I’m having trouble finding up to date news links. Many lists seem to be outdated and crash into paywalls or are just broken.

How do you sort your posts in subscribed communities? I’ve been sorting by active, but I keep seeing older stuff that I’ve already seen. Is there a better way to sort?

Now that Twitter has been renamed to X, what will you call Tweets?

I know there are a bunch of answers to this question “over yonder” and thought I’d ask here instead. The more exhaustive the checklist, the better....

Music?

I would be a capybara. King of the rodents who is friends with everyone!

Let me set the stage: Newly single dad of a young kid. After COVID-19 I haven’t done much outside of my home and taking care of my kid. I work full time-remote, and between the kiddo and leaving room for a hobby or taking care of the house, it seems like the only other thing I have time for is sleep....

I find i’m doing more activities in the real world, sitting with my thoughts, and not constantly needing content to fill the void (as much)...

So I’ve traveling and tried a few and they all seem to have stopped maintenance. Chipped pain, walls that desperately need paint, things that have been cleaned but just not thoroughly.

Most instances seem to be putting a lot of emphasis on their code of conduct specifically in regard to insults and harassment. I’m not against that and i understand the concept of “your server your rules” but i’m just curious to understand why many are so concerned with slurs while they don’t seem to care much about...

I’m conducting some research on the health insurance market and am particularly interested in the experience of immigrants....

I stopped drinking alcohol some years ago. Before that I hardly consumed any alcohol at all for many years, but in my college years and maybe some years after that, I drank socially like “everybody else”. But I gradually kind of got tired of dealing with the bad feelings (physical and emotional), so I drank less and less....

Unsure if babies can form memories ages 1-2, my oldest memory is from around age 3. They do learn words when they are around 1 year old, so there must be some capacity for memory? What is going on there?

I recently gave up eating takeout every night, but I’m too lazy to cook, which led to me replacing it with basically nothing but canned food. Like I’ll mix a can of beans and a can of mixed vegetables together, put half in a bowl and put the other half in a container for tomorrow, put salad dressing on it, and then that’s...

Lemmy appears to use more data than Reddit, so I’m thinking that maybe the images I see while scrolling are full sized instead of smaller previews. Anyone can confirm?

Plz I miss my reddit scary threads

I have aspd (antisocial personality disorder). Wondering if there are any other cluster b bvi people, specifically aspd or npd.

Whether it’s music, books, games, tv or movies, if you tune out most of the marketing, how do you go about finding new or old stuff? Word of mouth, new marketing (i.e. influencers/YouTubers), or do you ride the related artists/recommendations on stuff like Spotify/Last.fm/YouTube/Netflix/etc.? Or perhaps something else...

Worked great when the artist formerly known as Prince changed his name to a symbol.

This little sack thing was on the tomato plant today. When it was touched, these little worm-looking things popped out, like a spider sack of worms....
