wholemilk, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I don’t. I thought I would miss it a lot, but after replacing rif with lemmy and a few other apps I haven’t really been thinking about reddit recently.

Super Troopers for me!

cyberdecker, in Have you ever had Detroit-style pizza?

I love Detroit style pizza!

For others asking: Detroit style is kind of like Sicilian pizza. Pan baked, rectangular, yeast crust, thick, chewy, crispy on the edges. Bottom layer is cheese. Then toppings and sauce that is usually a stripe of sauce.

The texture reminds me of old school Pizza Hut pan pizza. Thick, airy, oily, and my favorite part is the little crispy craggy bits on the top edge of the crust.

In Maryland we have a couple really great Detroit pizza joints. Underground Pizza in Baltimore is my favorite and quite good, but pretty pricey. Rad Pies is a little more remote but is quite good as well.

Madusch, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Until yesterday, Joey for Reddit still worked, but since today it doesn’t anymore. I miss r/BestOfRedditorUpdates, so I’ll probably use it just for that sub.

akippnn, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I want to stop using Reddit, but every Google search I make that’s tech-related has an answer on either StackOverflow or Reddit. Even if most people move to Lemmy, Reddit would probably come up once in a while when I’m looking for answers to a problem only a few people would care about.

daddyrat, in What movie did you rewatch most often?

Moonstruck. It’s like watching a home movie of our family reunion.

I’ll say no more…

Ciari, in What movie did you rewatch most often?

Oh man, I’m going to get made fun of for this, but… The Barbie movies. Especially The 12 Dancing Princresses. My sister and I watched it so many times as kids that we could quote the entire thing (we often did so while watching it lmao). Honestly just off the top of my head now I probably could quote a good 80-90 percent of it. We must have watched it more than a hundred times, not even exaggerating.

stokholm, in How do you cheer yourself up after a rough day? Or a rough year?

I walk. Short or long walks. Whatever I have time for. Even if I don’t really feel like walking. I find I almost never regret the decision to go. And I almost always return in a better mental state.

Sometimes when I need an answer I use wayback machine to read reddit. Don’t want to give reddit my engagement and have their cookies in my browser.

Zippity, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I still look at a few specific subreddits when they pop-up in a search result.

notun, in How do you cheer yourself up after a rough day? Or a rough year?

“You don’t have to do today again.”

ThatsMrCharlieToYou, in Have you ever had a hyper realistic dream that you still remember after years?

I’ve not thought about this for a few years but yes. When I was a boy, I used to have a recurring dream of myself climbing this surreal-y tall climbing frame type thing. It was in an empty field. It had four repeating sections like a rope swing, rotating bridge, thick net, monkey bars, climbing wall etc. Stuff you’d typically find on an assault course or game show. It was even padded with the foam and vinyl you find in kids’ play areas. I’d have that dream most nights and would always fall out of the thing after 2-10 sections had been climbed. Well, I had resigned myself to continually climbing this thing each night and being awoken once a night as I hit the floor after falling. I’d always start at the height I fell from the previous night but progress felt minimal. Then, I finally reached the top. I remember looking around this field atop this ridiculously tall structure and feeling this great accomplishment. I genuinely couldn’t, and still can’t, believe that I got to the top. There was a massive slide from the top. I don’t think I could properly express just how long this was from the height. I rode it down and that was the last time I dreamed of it. I kind of miss that dream.

Ragerist, in What is the most unhelpful advice you have received?
@Ragerist@lemmy.world avatar

“You need to love yourself, before you can love someone else”

DrQuint,

I mean, good advice if it’s for someone who’s prone to build codependent relationships. Which still, no one but a professional therapist should be diagnosing.

Ragerist,
@Ragerist@lemmy.world avatar

But It’s in no way helpful advice to someone who is lonely or otherwise struggling. It’s almost along the lines of “why don’t you just cheer up”.

Helpful advice would be something along the lines “I understand you are struggling, maybe it would be a good idea to check out therapy”

Summzashi, (edited )

That doesn’t really say much though. “Never use cement to fill a pillow” is also crappy advice for someone that feels lonely but can be considered very good advice for someone thats considering filling their pillow with cement.

ZombieTheZombieCat,

What

Summzashi,

What part do you not understand my friend?

NikkiNikkiNikki,
@NikkiNikkiNikki@kbin.social avatar

The cement thing probably, I haven't heard that one before either

Summzashi,

Well I’m glad. Now you will not fill your pillow with cement. I guarantee you it will not become a more comfortable pillow if you fill it with cement.

JungleJim,

I think it can be helpful as a first sentence, but it needs more. “By loving yourself, I mean treat yourself better. Get a style and work it. Work out occasionally. Eat better. Find a hobby. Find another. If you want somebody else to love you, you have to first take care of yourself or nobody will think you could take care of them. Secondly, you have to make yourself into a person that’s interesting because anybody can be nice. You need more than nice. Third, having a life is how you meet people, and you gotta meet 'em before you can ask 'em out. That’s why you have to love yourself first.”
