Am I rich like they are?

    Yeah. That’s bs though. Being rich and worried about it while you can afford security and large amounts of property and several vehicles and exclusive clubs and restaurants etc is 100% different than having to deal with the same issues, but with $60k a year instead.

    Famous celebrity is a trade off. You’re giving everyone here only the option of taking on the bad portion, while having none of the good portion.

    Also remember, most celebrities CHOOSE their fame/lifestyle. They want rich Famous with those issues over $60k and no fame and fortune.

    LemmyKnowsBest,

    Your giving everyone here only the option of taking on the bad portion, while having none of the good portion.

    You’re examining this deeper than my original question. All I asked was: how would you feel if everyone in the world knew where your house is and where you sleep every night?

    ColeSloth,

    Slightly disturbed, I guess. It’s not very hard to find where a person lives if you want to, though.

    I like how you delete every comment you have that goes negative and even edit the text to be “#” so you can’t get called out for your bad takes.

    RedditWanderer, in How would you feel/react if your home address was announced & published very publicly the same way celebrities experience?

    Their aspiration/ income is directly tied to how popular they are. You can’t have both. They have enough money to hide if they please

    @mysoulishome@lemmy.world avatar

    Maple bacon scented candle. It smells alright…I’ve gotten bacon scented/flavored stuff in the past that was awful. Back in the day my sis in law got me bacon flavored marshmallows that made our entire apartment smell like ass. Had to throw them away.

    No celebrity owns the house the live in or stay in. No truly rich person does.

    An LLC or more likely a trust owns the house, land, everything they have. And those are owned by other LLCs and Trusts so you can’t follow the chain. If someone is doxxed, they go somewhere else. Many places are rented out (think Airbnb) all the time. If you get caught, your agent will “leak” that’s just where you were vacationing and the next paparazzi photos will be in different locations on purpose.

    Then you do what many do, and buy their real homes in countries that take privacy seriously. When you want an escape, you fly to your real house. No such thing as papparazi, security issues, or anything.

    oxjox, in What's a food you love, that isn't worth making from scratch?
    @oxjox@lemmy.ml avatar

    Brunch. I’m too hungover to be cooking anything.

    Definitely lots of food out there I’m not cooking from scratch but any “food I love” is probably something I’m cooking from scratch to begin with.

    jj4211, in What's the consensus on swearing here

    For me, it’s just uninteresting and pointless, and detracts from when I might use them for emphasis, if they are used all the time.

    I also find a lot of popular media leans on vulgar as the entire end game. Like a comedy where the only attempt at being funny is saying words you’re not “supposed” to stay. Use your language as you wish, but you better have something more to bring to the table than a willingness to say “dirty” words.

    Admittedly, it’s not as much a thing as it used to be. With media not caring much about language anymore, it stopped even in theory being funny by itself, but there was a time in the 80s and 90s where a number of personalities were nothing but swearing in contexts they weren’t “supposed” to, and it was so boring.

    So that carries forward to why I don’t bother to swear, because I found it so unimaginative then and that stuck with me.

    cerement, (edited ) in Is there any way to flag OC lemmy/fediverse posts? Maybe an optional checkbox "OC lemmy/fediverse content" or something that marks the post with an OC badge or something similar?
    @cerement@slrpnk.net avatar

    as you said, Lemmy is a link aggregator – you post your original content to Pixelfed or Peertube or Funkwhale or Pleroma or Mastodon or a dozen other services and post the link to Lemmy with “[OC]” in the title as @can said

    DandomRude,
    @DandomRude@lemmy.world avatar

    I mean OC in a litteral sence. Not OC in the sence of “I made a screenshot of x an posted it here” - this is not OC at all. I mean truly original content: things that have been posted on lemmy or any fediverse platforms and can’t be found anywhere else (at least not originally). In my experience, this content is the core of every social media application. If Lemmy doesn’t have this content, the platform is just not viable in my opinion. Imho original content created by the community is the essence of a particular social media app - that is proof that a community even exists. This seems to be true even for 4chan as well as TikTok, meta or YouTube (the latter two platforms pay content creators directly btw - not well, but still). All I’m asking is whether it wouldn’t make sense to at least highlight the actual original content somehow.

    Also: See my comment to @can. - did not get an answer tho…

    Critical_Insight, in Hot tub owners: any tips? any regrets?

    Apparently my idea of hot tub is quite different of what people are speaking of here. I’m quessing OP meant jacuzzi.

    Hot tub and jacuzzi are used interchangeably in the US. Is the one that you posted used for bathing?

    Fogle,

    Hot tub is a machine. Jacuzzi is a brand

    Thassodar,

    Tissue paper is an item, Kleenex is a brand. They’re both interchangeable in the US.

    Lost, by Linkin Park. It’s such a hype song, beautiful, sad, relatable, it’s really an incredible gift Chester left us.

    RIP you beautiful man, the world misses you more than you could ever know.
