I don’t get it.

Those are grippy socks. They’re often given to patients when they’re admitted to hospital. Over the past few years they’ve become synonymous with being admitted to a mental health ward.

The meme is saying that they’re afraid of being honest to their therapist because their therapist might admit them to a psych ward against their will.

Psych Ward Socks | Know Your Meme. A version of the meme I posted is even used in there as an example, funnily enough.

Germany is French, right?

ParsnipWitch,

That’s the Belgian flag. But don’t worry, they are so rare and tiny, that it doesn’t make a difference. We eat more Pommes in Germany anyway!

203 upvotes, 202 downvotes. The most controversial lemmy post I’ve ever seen

somnuz,

Wait… so why is it 69/23 for me?

Vote federation can be weird

FanonFan,

Defederation probably

I feel like I’m making history. A real end user vs tech people conundrum.

Cloudflare is having some weird issues with Discord this morning.

gencha,

I’d claim it’s the other way around until proven otherwise. Configuring the edge is not for everyone

DarkenLM,

So it wasn't just me. Good to know.

Zicoxy3, in Reddit is dead. Long live the Fediverse.

Unfortunately, reddit has been too long and entrenched in society to “remove” it from our browsers. It is very different from Twitter or another social network. Lemmy is a great project. I hope it works and establishes itself as a real alternative, but it still has a long way to go. Unfortunately, the Reddit/Lemmy format is resource intensive, and that’s the problem with a service like this.

It’s my simple opinion. I support any fediverso project, but reddit, today I think it is irreplaceable.

shaked_coffee,

That’s very true!

Thanks to the whole blackout thing and the many amazing apps that came to Lemmy (like Sync that I’m using rn and loving), Lemmy is now good enough to replace Reddit for the new content (at least in my opinion)

But Reddit is not (or at least not only) an “what’s happening now” social network like Twitter and there is a huge amount of old content on it that can still really useful. So I guess that, in the best scenario, we’ll have Reddit and Lemmy cohexist and complement each other :)

BCsven, in Microsoft Edge is actually good lmao

Just block the user, then you don’t have to deal with them

DragonTypeWyvern,

That’s what the meme says they did.

BCsven,

Then why post frustration? block and move on

Because it makes for a good meme

And any good content for lemmy means there’s more stuff to view, meaning people are more likely to switch to Lemmy

HenriVolney, in Lord Massacre

If real, this is really disturbing. It gives users the idea that bots have feelings. My car doesn’t deserve respect, Bing doesn’t deserve respect either. Humans do and other living entities too to some extent. This is fucked up to the last degree, lord Microsoft/Skynet!

planish,

Pretty much everything deserves respect.

And while the bots don’t have our feelings, the characters they are made to portray are able to follow feeling physics in the same way that we can. Insult it, now it says it’s mad. Compliment it, it will claim to feel gratitude. And the claimed feelings influence what is said next, as if they were being felt.

Are those “real” feelings? Or just “fake” feelings we’ve yet to explain away? If you have no way of telling the difference, isn’t it better to be kind to the machine than to be mean to the alien from vector space?

HenriVolney,

Have you have joined the machines as an insurance for a possible future uprising!

planish,

No, I think this is just a consequence of having heard about all the times we treated people like they weren’t actually people. If we want to avoid keeping doing that, we might sometimes have to treat things that might not be people or aren’t actually people as if they were people, just to be sure we’ve covered everybody.

cooopsspace, in Please stop the ride, I want off

Gen Z - radiation and climate change.

dangblingus,

Nope. Still microplastics.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS, in Please stop the ride, I want off

Unfortunately everyone is full of Microplastics and Teflon.

So we won’t decompose or stick to things. Where’s the downside?

floofloof,

Not sticking to things is bad news for Spiderman.

Sabre363, in Say neigh to drugs

But where are the free drugs that DARE promised?

Krackalot,

Take some dare classes, they’ll tell you!

Sabre363,

But they just keep telling me to say no

ImFresh3x, in Really be some crazy people out there thinking they piss gold

Even people who are the problem need to vent. Sometimes I’m just there for my imperfect friends/family.

pomodoro_longbreak,
@pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works avatar

This is true too. And then comes the delicate art of leading that person to the realisation that changing their behaviour would solve their problems.

stanka, in Really be some crazy people out there thinking they piss gold

The one constant in all of your failed relationships is you.

pomodoro_longbreak,
@pomodoro_longbreak@sh.itjust.works avatar

Joke’s on you, all my relationships have been successful.

Catsrules,

This sounds like one of those old demotivational poster.

Facebones, in book memes

Wait they made a Foundation show?

IDK why I’m surprised lol

@Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social avatar

If you just accept that the book was impossible to make into a TV show it's actually pretty great. Lee Pace is astounding, the story is great, and Bear McCreary did a lot of the music. You may know Bear's beats from Battlestar Galactica.

SatanicNotMessianic, in I wonder what they thought of furbies

The 90s are nothing. I remember a flock of seagulls from the 80s that are still flying around.

Hupf,

They just flew (so far away).

JunkMilesDavis, in The most useful state comparison
@JunkMilesDavis@kbin.social avatar

I almost had this half-baked thought about the northwestern moose population being separated from the ones in the northeast, but then I remembered that they don't need passports to get into Canada.

Immigration loophole!

HamBrick,

Step one: become Moose Step two: cross border unregulated Step three: profit
